Abstract: Service-oriented computing which provides flexible composition of various applications using multiple reusable services has getting more attractive. We propose a service oriented wireless sensor networks toolbox, which encapsulates complexities of sensor networks and enables simple service compositions using an intuitive GUI. We utilize sensor networks as a collection of services that are discovered and coordinated by users. Service metadata which are self-describing service capabilities and interfaces are defined and exposed via our service metadata repositories. A service oriented sensor network toolbox consisting of sensor networks, an intuitive GUI application that retrieves metadata for discovered services and helps users to composite various roles are presented.
