Abstract
This document presents the requirements for a language to describe the capabilities of a transducer in a wireless transducer network (WTN). It provides a survey of existing technologies in this field and concludes with a framework in which the capabilities of a transducer can be employed to assist users in the configuration of a WTN. The intended audience for this paper comprises members of academic and industrial research groups whose focus is networked devices, such as those used in wireless sensor networks.
