Pervasive Computing is a concept which aims at the data processing and communication in everyday life. Sensor networks are used to collect information about the physical world. The information is useful for pervasive devices to adapt their behaviours.

Since the devices in these two areas have different interaction models, data from sensor networks can not be accessed by devices in Pervasive Computing environments. Our solution is to build up a node which can communicate with devices from both environments. This solution involves a complete system design including hardware integration and software adaptation. Two hardware devices are combined as the hardware platform of the node. One device supports Pervasive Computing applications. The other one is used in sensor networks. A middleware for Pervasive Computing, BASE, is extended with the capability of running in wireless sensor networks. Different interaction models are integrated in BASE.

The node built in this diploma thesis realizes data exchange among devices which have different interaction capabilities and acts as a bridge between Pervasive Computing environments and sensor networks.
