Abstract: This paper proposes the sensor-cloud infrastructure which supports sensor management on cloud computing. It can also map the physical sensor to the virtualised sensor. Since the resource and capacity of physical sensors are limited, IT management on cloud computing can be on behalf of the sensor management. Both dynamic provisioning and automated management of the cloud computing can be leveraged for sensor services. IT resources with those virtualised sensors can be provided on the sensor-cloud infrastructure. The significance of the proposed infrastructure is that virtualised sensors can be used as part of IT resource such as CPU, disk and memory. In addition, the dynamic sensor group can be automatically provisioned with those virtual sensors. The evaluation of the proposed infrastructure proves the scalability that can support a large number of physical sensors on cloud computing.
