ABSTRACT
Nodes in Mobile Ad-hoc network are connected wirelessly and the network is auto configuring [1]. This
paper introduces the usefulness of data warehouse as an alternative to manage data collected by WSN.
Wireless Sensor Network produces huge quantity of data that need to be proceeded and homogenised, so as
to help researchers and other people interested in the information. Collected data is managed and
compared with other coming from datasources and systems could participate in technical report and
decision making. This paper proposes a model to design, extract, transform and normalize data collected
by Wireless Sensor Networks by implementing a multidimensional warehouse for comparing many aspects
in WSN such as (routing protocol[4], sensor, sensor mobility, cluster ….). Hence, data warehouse defined
and applied to the context above is presented as a useful approach that gives specialists row data and
information for decision processes and navigate from one aspect to another.

1. INTRODUCTION
As known, the demand for smart phones and portable devices has developed year by year since
their introduction. These items can be used to form a MANET. A MANET consists of arbitrary
deployed communicational devices such as PDAs, cell phones, laptops, etc. It is a wireless multi-
hop network where all nodes insure data exchange.
WSN is managed by the network nodes themselves; as there is no special device or router
involved, every node itself work as a router to forward the traffic.
Energy in ad-hoc networks is critical due to the application charges and also limited energy
availability in each wireless node [2]. Communication between wireless nodes claims more
energy, so it is pertinent to reduce the cost of energy required for traffic. This paper will give a
comparison of the energy metrics of AODV and DSDV [3] by modifying the density of nodes
and deploying warehouses technologies to depicts and crossing over some WSN’s behaviours
over time.
1.1. Routing protocol
Routing protocols [8] is a norm that defines how nodes decide to achieve the packets
between the source and the destination node. Each node learns about neighbours nodes and the
routes to attain them. Each one is owning and managing one or more tables that containing

routing information data about every other node in the network. Examples for table driven
protocols are:
1.1.1. AODV
Protocol AODV [1] is adequate for the restricted resources of WSN. It is not concerned by
maintain routing information but it based on data exchange with its neighbourhood. AODV
broadcast discovery packets - ctrl messages route request (RREQ)[12] and route
reply(RREP) - only when necessary[4].
1.1.2. DSDV
Destination Sequenced Distance Vector protocol belongs to the class of proactive routing
protocols. Based on the classical Bellman-Ford routing algorithm [4], also it is a distance vector
protocol[1], each equipment manage a routing table that contain all of the potential targets within
the network and the number of hops to each destination are mentioned [5]. Each input is labeled
with a number that is affected by the target node; this operation will avert forming loops.
2. RELATED WORKS
Energy consumption, since nodes are powered by batteries, depending on the use, energy can last
from days to weeks [5]. With the help of WSN, it is possible to monitor various characteristics of
the environments, but these data alone or simply collected over time are difficult to be interpreted
by users. In this section, we outline the context of our work on WSN. In [6] and [8] the energy
metrics of AODV and DSDV are compared by increasing the number of nodes using trace file
generated NS2 simulator.
For the monitored data to be recovered in a productive way by the parties, it must be organized in
a repository or database, and have an interface with easy access, through which the user can view
consolidated information and be able to make analysis.
The description above refers to Data Warehouse (DW) that means a set of technologies for
decision support used by people interested in making decisions quickly and easily. A major
contribution of this paper is an alternative to manage data collected by WSN based on a model to
extract, transform and normalize this data and load it in a DW. The results showed that the
crossing of tabulated data with others sources, such as technical reports could improve data
accuracy and help to create better data warehouse views. Data in sensor database -trace file- is
transformed, loaded in warehouse and then displayed. In figure 1 represents all sources supported
by the architecture proposed.

Figure 1 : Data Warehouse architecture
The paper is organized as follows. Section 3 reviews the technologies and terminologies used in
the whole paper, presenting products used in the prototype developed. Section 4, modeling our
proposed warehouse and data extraction-analyze data collected by WSN. Section 5 presents the
architecture proposed focusing on the process of acquiring and delivering data from WSN to DW.
Section 6 shows the results obtained using collected by WSN. Conclusion is for the section 7 it is
outlines our future works.
The main purpose of this research was to monitor some measures behaviors in situations, such as
energy [6]. To analyze data from WSN, [9] introduces an approach based on tasking sensor
networks through declarative queries. Given a user query, a manager creates a plan for this
statement execution. A leader node is necessary to consolidate data from other nodes.
3. DATA WAREHOUSE AND OLAP
OLAP consists objects that are a part of dimensional model. The dimensional data model contains
many definitions figure 2 shows a short description:
Figure 2 : Dimensional modeling –constellation schema
International Journal of Computer Science & Engineering Survey (IJCSES) Vol.4, No.4, August 2013

This constellation schema for an example of data warehouse contain three processes each process
is presented by blue fact table surrounded by dimensions that give additional information about
process.
Fact table contain a set of attributes, it can be divided into 2 subsets:
 Set of foreign key relationships with each dimension table involved.
 Set of measures that describe concerned process such as annueven for the business
faits_evenement.
Most measures are numeric and would be descriptive, Boolean ….etc.
Measures are typically additive (aggregated for all dimensions), semi additive (aggregated for
some dimensions) and non-additive (unit_price). This characteristic is important for summarizing
row data. In general, facts tables are constructed with the lowest level – atomic level- of detail.
In viewing data, analysts use dimension hierarchies [10] to ensure navigation: drill down to lower
levels and roll up to higher levels to have large understanding of data behavior and what affect the
business.
Some attributes are descriptive and offer additional information about the data.
Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) allows navigation of the data in a DW, having a suitable
structure for both research and for presenting of information. In the navigation tools, OLAP can
navigate between different granularities of a cube [11]. Through a process called Drill, the User
can increase (Drill down) or decrease (Drill up) the level of detail of the data. For example
location dimension figure, a report may be consolidated by the country. With the Drill down, the
data will be submitted by region, state and so on until the lowest level possible figure 3. The
opposite process, Drill up, causes data to be consolidated at higher levels. Note that Data
provided by sensors are reorganized in multidimensional warehouse, (real time processing will be
crucial in term of energy, resources and time) and require more high technology to enhance this
process.
Figure 3 : dimensions hierarchies
4. ARCHITECTURE
After extracting and transforming data -flat file-, it is necessary to load this information
into a DW that modeled in dimensional modeling. In [11] authors are focused to dimensional
modeling where data is classified as fact table or dimension figure 2.
Figure 4a depicts the proposed multidimensional model; the prototype contains energy,
temperatures and some others measures such as send or receive number of exchanged paquet

there is three dimensions DSensor, DPaquet and DTime presented with hierarchies mentioned to
ensure navigation between levels.
The same as above another version is to take a restriction of data warehouse for manipulating just
protocol with relative measures (type, energy….)
Figure 4a: Proposed Multidimensional Model
Figure 4b : Proposed Multidimensional Model.
. Other possibility is to present the warehouse in relational model, by defining table instead of
dimension by rearrange columns and rows figure [5].

Figure 5 : Warehouse relational star schema.
Normally data is collected at different times and transformation process is accounts for
consolidating this data in the same time zone and granularity, this action will be critical,
because the traffic is huge.
5. RESULTS
In this section we show the usefulness and some technical report extracted from the proposed
warehouse, implemented in Oracle tools: Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager (AWM), Oracle
SQL Developer Data Modeler and other package in order to fill the data warehouse by mapping
source to target DW.
Collected data [6] is loaded in DW; using AWM [13] can present data –Energy behavior -in
tabular or graphically form figure 6.
Figure 6 : Sample data from OLAP cubes
Hence, data warehouse applied to the context above shows to be a useful alternative that helps
specialists to obtain information for the whole process, which could generates energy and
observation of many measures.

The analysts can manipulate cube objects with use of drag and drop methods. They may also limit
the scope of the presented data using filters that limit data on individual dimensions, hierarchies
and levels. They can also drill down or drill up using level figure drill down to specify protocol
type in order to evaluate energy figure 7.
Figure 7 : node cluster level Vs consumed energy
Drill down to low level we can display the energy figure 7 for the component defined in the
multidimensional schema.
Figure 8 : Sectorial graphic of consumed energy for lowest level
6. CONCLUSIONS
The association of WSN and DW is little explored a research area. However, the benefits of using
DW to manage data collected by WSN are shown here. Among the things that stand out is the
possibility to help technical decision-making.
In this paper, we have presented a simulation tool/prototype which can give a set of graphs and
interactive interface in order to compare many aspect and measures of a WSN such as energy, and
navigate across dimensions and levels to crossover and have a global view.
As our future works, we would like perform more analysis in WSN especially exchange traffic
and QoS using DW environment.

International Journal of Computer Science & Engineering Survey (IJCSES) Vol.4, No.4, August 2013 4 This constellation schema for an example of data warehouse contain three processes each process is presented by blue fact table surrounded by dimensions that give additional information about process. Fact table contain a set of attributes, it can be divided into 2 subsets:  Set of foreign key relationships with each dimension table involved.  Set of measures that describe concerned process such as annueven for the business faits_evenement. Most measures are numeric and would be descriptive, Boolean ….etc. Measures are typically additive (aggregated for all dimensions), semi additive (aggregated for some dimensions) and non-additive (unit_price). This characteristic is important for summarizing row data. In general, facts tables are constructed with the lowest level – atomic level- of detail. In viewing data, analysts use dimension hierarchies [10] to ensure navigation: drill down to lower levels and roll up to higher levels to have large understanding of data behavior and what affect the business. Some attributes are descriptive and offer additional information about the data. Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) allows navigation of the data in a DW, having a suitable structure for both research and for presenting of information. In the navigation tools, OLAP can navigate between different granularities of a cube [11]. Through a process called Drill, the User can increase (Drill down) or decrease (Drill up) the level of detail of the data. For example location dimension figure, a report may be consolidated by the country. With the Drill down, the data will be submitted by region, state and so on until the lowest level possible figure 3. The opposite process, Drill up, causes data to be consolidated at higher levels. Note that Data provided by sensors are reorganized in multidimensional warehouse, (real time processing will be crucial in term of energy, resources and time) and require more high technology to enhance this process. Figure 3 : dimensions hierarchies 4. ARCHITECTURE After extracting and transforming data -flat file-, it is necessary to load this information into a DW that modeled in dimensional modeling. In [11] authors are focused to dimensional modeling where data is classified as fact table or dimension figure 2. Figure 4a depicts the proposed multidimensional model; the prototype contains energy, temperatures and some others measures such as send or receive number of exchanged paquet

International Journal of Computer Science & Engineering Survey (IJCSES) Vol.4, No.4, August 2013 5 there is three dimensions DSensor, DPaquet and DTime presented with hierarchies mentioned to ensure navigation between levels. The same as above another version is to take a restriction of data warehouse for manipulating just protocol with relative measures (type, energy….) Figure 4a: Proposed Multidimensional Model Figure 4b : Proposed Multidimensional Model. . Other possibility is to present the warehouse in relational model, by defining table instead of dimension by rearrange columns and rows figure [5].

Normally data is collected at different times and transformation process is accounts for consolidating this data in the same time zone and granularity, this action will be critical, because the traffic is huge. 5. RESULTS In this section we show the usefulness and some technical report extracted from the proposed warehouse, implemented in Oracle tools: Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager (AWM), Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler and other package in order to fill the data warehouse by mapping source to target DW. Collected data [6] is loaded in DW; using AWM [13] can present data –Energy behavior -in tabular or graphically form figure 6. Figure 6 : Sample data from OLAP cubes Hence, data warehouse applied to the context above shows to be a useful alternative that helps specialists to obtain information for the whole process, which could generates energy and observation of many measures.

They may also limit the scope of the presented data using filters that limit data on individual dimensions, hierarchies and levels. They can also drill down or drill up using level figure drill down to specify protocol type in order to evaluate energy figure 7. Figure 7 : node cluster level Vs consumed energy Drill down to low level we can display the energy figure 7 for the component defined in the multidimensional schema. Figure 8 : Sectorial graphic of consumed energy for lowest level 6. CONCLUSIONS The association of WSN and DW is little explored a research area. However, the benefits of using DW to manage data collected by WSN are shown here. Among the things that stand out is the possibility to help technical decision-making. In this paper, we have presented a simulation tool/prototype which can give a set of graphs and interactive interface in order to compare many aspect and measures of a WSN such as energy, and navigate across dimensions and levels to crossover and have a global view. As our future works, we would like perform more analysis in WSN especially exchange traffic and QoS using DW environment.
