用AI和模板化方法,让非专家也能快速开发传感器应用
From Sensors to Insight: Rapid, Edge-to-Core Application Development for Sensor-Driven Applications

- 用可复用的工作流模板+AI辅助,快速构建传感器应用
- 在边缘到核心全程实现模块化配置与部署,支持多种监测场景
- 适合科研人员和开发者快速迭代原型,降低跨域技术门槛
科学家日益依赖传感器数据,但将原始数据流转化为洞察仍面临挑战。在边缘到云端的异构基础设施上部署与管理计算任务,通常需要跨领域知识,限制了快速原型开发。本文提出一种以用户体验为导向的方法,通过结合基于模式的工作流工程与基于Pegasus的AI辅助开发,在FABRIC测试平台上,以现有的Orcasound水听器工作流为模板,生成并优化空气品质、地震、土壤湿度监测的应用流程。我们进一步展示了如何通过模块化配置将这些抽象结构延伸至边缘资源。评估聚焦于用户生产力与实践经验,而非峰值性能。案例研究表明,该方法显著降低非专家进入门槛,支持在分布式架构中持续探索传感器驱动应用。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Scientists increasingly rely on sensor-based data, yet transforming raw streams into insights across the edge-to-cloud continuum remains difficult. Provisioning heterogeneous infrastructure and managing execution on emerging platforms like Data Processing Units typically requires cross-domain expertise, creating significant barriers to rapid prototyping. This paper introduces an experience-driven methodology for the rapid development of sensor-driven applications. By combining pattern-based workflow engineering with AI-assisted development-implemented via Pegasus on the FABRIC testbed - we utilize an existing Orcasound hydrophone workflow as a reusable template. We introduce a pattern-based engineering methodology to generate and refine workflows for air quality, earthquake, and soil moisture monitoring. Furthermore, we show how these abstract structures are extended to edge resources through modular configuration and placement. Our evaluation focuses on user productivity and practical lessons rather than peak performance. Through these case studies, we illustrate how AI-assisted, pattern-based development lowers the entry barrier for non-experts and enables iterative exploration of sensor-driven applications across distributed infrastructures.
