From sensors to real-time analytics

In the paper we present a generic pipeline developed at the Jozef Stefan Institute for the analysis of sensor data. The pipeline consists of various components such as sensors (measuring diverse quantities), sensor boards (installed in smart-city scenarios), communication lines delivering the sensor data to the data center, data servers (to enrich and store the data), real-time analytics (to aggregate and predict the selected signals), and visualization (to deliver information to the user). The pipeline is developed within a series of EU-funded FP7 projects and installed in two smaller towns in Slovenia for testing and development purposes.
