Résumé : International audience
Applications over wireless sensor networks are growing quickly. Traditional software development tools are not well adapted to this technology. In particular, adequate testing methodologies are required. Many issues have not been formally addressed as energy-conservation, congestion control, reliability data dissemination, security. In this paper, we present a pragmatic approach to detect some kind of anomalies based on defined scenarios on wireless sensor networks. A scenario is considered as a set of events which should happen on the network in an ordered way. We discuss a formal architecture able to perform these scenarios over the wireless sensor networks and to raise alarms if necessary. This methodology has been implemented on a prototype and has been experimented with various examples. This contribution is a first attempt for a formal testing methodology for wireless sensor networks.

Résumé : International audience
In this paper we study how to detect anomalies in a distributed manner by using wireless sensor networks (WSN). We focus on a medical context, where existing works generally provide large environments to monitor patients using sensors as simple transducers. Those devices forward sensed health parameters to a main base station. This station collects received data and may perform some computations. In this paper, we perform some distributed tasks on the sensors. We propose a distributed algorithm which allows to raise alarms under some initial rules to alert efficiently medical staff in case of critical situations without needles warnings.

This paper studies how to detect anomalies in a distributed manner by using wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We focus on a medical context, where the existing works generally provide large environments to monitor patients using sensors as simple transducers. Those devices forward sensed health parameters to a main base station. This station collects received data and may perform some computations. In this paper, we perform some distributed tasks on the sensors. We propose a distributed algorithm, which allows to raise alarms under some initial rules to alert efficiently medical staff in case of critical situations without needless warnings. Each mote monitors a parameter. When this parameter reaches an abnormal value, the mote communicates with other motes in order to check if it is a ‘local' anomaly or if the patient is in an abnormal situation. In such cases an alarm is raised. We implemented our algorithm over a network of micaZ sensors running under TinyOS. The obtained results show promising perspectives.

Résumé : International audience
This study presents two algorithms that count birds with wireless sensors equipped with microphones. Audio inputs are parametrized to get some kind of fingerprints which are used to recognize the song of the birds in a classification process. Afterward, counting algorithms derive an estimate of the number of singing birds in the habitat. Unlike traditional approaches which leverage the audio waveform to get the location of the targets, we use a trilateration technique on graphs derived from the detection of the birds. These graphs exhibit nice properties which enable the finding of the estimate in polynomial time. Further, experiments are conducted and confirmm the efficiency of our counting algorithms even in the presence of noise.

Résumé : Les réseaux de capteurs constituent un axe de recherche très fertile ces dernières années. Cette technique se développe dans différents domaines comme l'environnement, l'industrie, le commerce, la médecine, l'armée, etc. Les réseaux de capteurs sont difficiles à concevoir parce qu'ils sont fortement contraints en énergie et que tous les éléments ont potentiellement une influence sur la durée de vie du système. Nous proposons un outil permettant l'aide au bon paramétrage et aux choix de paramètres optimaux pour la stabilité des applications.Dans cette thèse, nous nous sommes intéressés à deux problématiques : une classification des paramètres pour un outil d'aide à la décision pour la configuration d'un réseau de capteurs et la seconde, un outil de test de conformité du système dans un environnement réel. Le document est divisé en deux parties où la première partie est un état de l'art de différents protocoles existants et la deuxième partie décrit notre contribution dans ces deux problématiques.Dans la première contribution, nous avons analysé l'impact de la couverture radio puis de la topologie sur les performances d'un réseau de capteurs. Nous étudions le taux de perte et le niveau d'énergie pour en déduire la stabilité d'une application. Puis nous avons proposé une étude menant à une classification pour notre outil d'aide à la décision. Notre classification est basée sur une étude de divers paramètres de la couche MAC, physique, protocole de routage, nombre de nœuds et type d'application.Dans la deuxième contribution, nous nous sommes focalisés sur une approche pragmatique permettant de tester la conformité d'un réseau de capteurs dans un environnement réel. Pour tester la conformité dans un environnement réel, nous proposons une architecture d'exécution de test sur un réseau de capteurs réel. Ceci dans un but d'assurer un niveau correct de conformité et la stabilité de celui-ci durant son fonctionnement.
Wireless sensor networks is one of the hotest research topic in the last few years. This technology can be applied for different fields such as environment, industry, trading, medicine, military etc. Wireless sensor networks are hard to conceive because they require a lot of energy and because each of its component may have an influence on the lifetime of the whole system. What we suggest is a tool allowing to choose the correct and optimal parameters for the reliability of the applications.In this thesis, we focused on two major problems : firstly, a classification of the parameters for a tool allowing to make decisions about the configuration of a wireless sensors network, and secondly, a tool testing the compliance of the system with a real environment. The document is divided into two parts : the first part states the different protocols that exist, and the second part describes our contributions to those topics.In the first contribution, we analyzed how influential the radio cover and the network topology are on the network performances. Then, we deduced from the study of the loss rate and of the level of energy, the reliability of the application. Next, we suggested a study leading to a classification for our decision making tool. For this classification, we studied various parameters related to the MAC layer, the Physical layer, the network layer, the application layer the number of nodes involved in the network.In the second contribution, we adopted a pragmatic approach so we could test the conformity of a wireless sensors network in a real environment. In order to test its conformity in a real environment, we suggested a structured test execution on a real wireless sensor network. This task has been suggested in order to check the conformance level of the network while it was working.

Résumé : International audience
We present a study on the optimasation of the number of messages for medical diagnosis over wireless sensors networks (WSNs). We suggest distributed algorithms to diagnosis some diseases while monitoring a patient. Then, we compare the number of messages needed to make a decision between the algorithms. In our approach, each sensor will make some computations in order to participate to the decision. Indeed, some computation and collaboration tasks are performed over the sensors and the final diagnosis is performed in a distributed way. During the experimentation of our algorithms, we used a real data flow extracted from hospital monitoring.

Résumé : International audience
The aim of this study is to perform a simulation of large scale Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) working on medical diagnosis. The main feature of this WSN is its density and the fact that all sensors are in the same radio range. Our approach helps medical staff to diagnose diseases in an automatic way. In this context, each patient is equipped to a set of sensors. Each sensor is connected to a transducer dedicated to measure a specific health parameter . This WSN will perform some computations and run an alarm when some diseases are suspected. This technique is based on the population protocol to handle data exchanged between sensors. This approach is in fact an efficient distributed algorithm which implies that the diagnose may be done by any sensor dealing with the disease detection. The main result of this paper is: the method supports large scalability which proves its practicability for real cases.

Résumé : International audience
The aim of this study is to suggest an automated technique for distributed decision. It is based on protocol population deployed on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). This approach is able to help medical staff to detect earlier than usual some diseases on patients. It could be easily adapted for many other fields (fire monitoring, environment supervising, ...) In this context, a patient is equipped with health parameter transducers which are connected to a WSN. This WSN will perform some computations and raise an alarm when some diseases are suspected. The algorithm is distributed, i.e., the decision may be done by any mote dealing with the disease detection. The experimentations show promising results.

Résumé : International audience
In this paper, we focus on providing new tools to help doctors in their diagnosis. We study the feasibility of using a distributed approach over Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). We define a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) as a set of wireless sensors which equipped a patient. Each sensor senses a health parameter, for example, temperature or heart pulse. Our aim is to understand how a distributed approach can be a fair alternative to the common centralized paradigm. We study a distributed approach based on the token paradigm. Then, we compare this approach to the centralized one, throw simulations and experimentations over real sensors.

Résumé : International audience
More and more animal species are endangered. In order to study and protect them, several measures have been taken, which now seem to show their limit. This work focuses on the counting process, a key issue for any project that aims to protect animals. Indeed, this paper proposes an algorithm for automatic counting of singing birds in their habitat by using wireless sensors fitted with microphone. Sensors are used to record audio samples of bird songs. These samples are used to extract some kinds of song fingerprint that are thereafter used to recognize the bird species, through a classification process. Afterwards, by analyzing data which have been collected by a central base, the network structure derived from detection fields of sensors, allows our algorithm to propose an estimate of singing birds in the habitat. This paper details the counting algorithm which uses graph theory and audio inputs comparison. Finally, we demonstrate our scheme efficiency through experimentations.

International audience
The work presented in this paper is part of a global framework which long term goal is to design a wireless sensor network able to support the observation of a population of endangered birds. We present the first stage for which we have conducted a knowledge discovery approach on a sample of acoustical data. We use MFCC features extracted from bird songs and we exploit two knowledge discovery techniques. One that relies on clustering-based approaches, that highlights the homogeneity in the songs of the species. The other, based on predictive modeling, that demonstrates the good performances of various machine learning techniques for the identification process. The knowledge elicited provides promising results to consider a widespread study and to elicit guidelines for designing a first version of the automatic approach for data collection based on acoustic sensors.

Résumé : International audience
The aim of this study is to suggest two automated techniques able to help medical staff to detect earlier than usual some diseases using wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this context, a patient is equipped with physical sensors (for temperature, pressure, ..). This WSN will perform some computations and will run an alarm when a disease is suspected. The first technique uses a population protocol to handle data exchanged between motes and provides an efficient algorithm to suggest that a disease is diagnosed on a patient. The algorithm is distributed, i.e., the decision may be done by any mote dealing with the disease detection. The second technique uses a token algorithm where, some motes, denoted as masters. Each of them is in charge of deciding if a specific disease occurs. This technique is not totally distributed but enhances the network efficiency regarding to the energy consumption, the time execution and the number of exchanged messages.
