A sensor network covering a large area enables connection to various types of sensors and actuators, but application development becomes complicated because of the uncontrollable behavior of such a large number of devices. We propose the uTupleSpace model for uniform and indirect communication with two extensions to the original tuple space model. The extensions enable efficient range search for multidimensional keys and bi-directional communications. Our implementation of our proposed model also integrates load balancing by using a distributed hash table, and the experimental results indicate good scalability in multiple servers. The trial application of gathering and plotting GPS sensor data works well in the field.
