A Multisensory Monitoring and Interpretation Framework Based on the Model-View-Controller Paradigm

This paper proposes a monitoring and interpretation framework inspired in the Model–View–Controller (MVC) paradigm. Indeed, the paper proposes the extension of the traditional MVC paradigm to make it more flexible in incorporating the functionalities of a monitoring and interpretation system. The proposed model is defined as a hybrid distributed system where remote nodes perform lower level processing as well as data acquisition, while a central node is in charge of collecting the information and of its fusion. Firstly, the framework levels as well as their functionalities are described. Then, a fundamental part of the proposed framework, namely the common model, is introduced.
