SMART System: Architecture & Use Cases

SMART System: Architecture & Use Cases

SMART layered architecture

The SMART architecture is layered:

  • Layer 1: Edge Nodes. They communicate with the physical world, by collecting, processing and fusing sensor and social network streams
  • Layer 2: Search Engine. Performs scalable search and retrieval over numerous SMART edge nodes. Offers query processing and «Smart-Reduce» functionalities
  • Layer 3: Applications. They are composed based on queries to the SMART search engine and employ reusable mashup libraries for visualization
