Given the volume of data produced by Wireless Sensor Networks, Smart Meters and the other smart objects that make up the 'Internet of Things', there is a clear requirement for this data to be transformed into meaningful information using Vertoda Middleware and Business Intelligence tools such as Crystal Reports and Business Objects. There are also other tools available which can be incorporated into the Vertoda Framework. R (http://www.r-project.org/) is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics and can be used for data mining applications. The Apache Hadoop project (http://hadoop.apache.org/) is free open source software which provides data processing, aggregation, storage and warehousing functionality. Both these tools can be used in conjunction with Vertoda to provide a rich reporting environment for decision making. And, of course, as previously discussed, Data Grids and Complex Event Processing (CEP) can also play key roles in analysing data for Green IT and other networks of smart objects.
