This paper presents an extension of the pi-Calculus which allows the high-level modeling of self-organizing protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Process algebras (PA) as pi-Calculus are concerning the high-level description of interaction among processes. Because the most important characteristic of self-organization is the restriction of interaction to neighboring elements (localized interactions), we extend the pi-Calculus with the locality awareness, a necessary abstraction to allow the modeling of self-organization in WSNs. To get full locality awareness of pi-Calculus we extended it with spatiality, probability and time. Moreover, new types of channels were included in the pi-Calculus to include the different types of communication existing in a WSN: distribution, broadcast and aggregation. In order to validate our new PA, we successfully model a self-organizing clustering algorithm for WSN. |
