There are methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for sensor node management. The methods and apparatus may include the ability to receive a message indicating that a sensor node is active, determine the type of data generated by the sensor node, and designate a location to store the type of data. The methods and apparatus may also include the ability to determine a transformation for generating a seal condition based on the type of data.

The invention claimed is: 1. A sensor node management method performed by a server system, the method comprising: receiving a message indicating that a sensor node is active; determining the type of data generated by the sensor node; designating a location to store data of the determined type of data; and determining a transformation for generating a seal condition based on the determined type of data. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining if the sensor node is part of a sensor network; and if the sensor node is part of a sensor network, instructing the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein instructing the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network comprises: determining whether combined data may represent a data type of two or more sensor nodes; and if combined data may represent a data type of two or more sensor nodes, instructing a sensor node of the sensor network to send combined data for the data type. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein instructing the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network comprises instructing the sensor nodes of the sensor network how to report data between the sensor nodes. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving a registration request from a user interface device; and determining whether the user interface device should receive a representation of the seal condition. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising determining how to transform sensor node data for the user interface device. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving sensor node data; and transforming the data into a seal condition. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the seal condition comprises compromised or uncompromised. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein transforming sensor node data into a seal condition comprises comparing the transformed data to a predetermined seal condition. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the predetermined seal condition comprises the seal condition at the time a container associated with the sensor node is sealed. 11. The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining whether the sensor node requires a programming update; and if the sensor node requires a programming update, sending a program update to the sensor node. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein determining whether the sensor node requires a programming update comprises determining that the sensor node is malfunctioning. 13. A system for sensor node management, the system comprising: a server system operable to: receive a message indicating that a sensor node is active; determine the type of data generated by the sensor node; designate a location to store data of the determined type of data; and determine a transformation for generating a seal condition based on the determined type of data. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the server system is further operable to: determine if the sensor node is part of a sensor network; and if the sensor node is part of a sensor network, instruct the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network. 15. The system of claim 14, wherein instructing the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network comprises: determining whether combined data may represent a data type of two or more sensor nodes; and if combined data may represent a data type of two or more sensor nodes, instructing a sensor node of the sensor network to send combined data for the data type. 16. The system of claim 13, wherein the server system is further operable to: receive a registration request from a user interface device; and determine whether the user interface device should receive a representation of the sealed condition. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the server system is further operable to determine how to transform sensor node data for the user interface device. 18. The system of claim 13, wherein the server system is further operable to: receive sensor node data; and transform the data into a seal condition. 19. The system of claim 13, wherein the server system is further operable to: determine whether the sensor node requires a programming update; and if the sensor node requires a programming update, send a program update to the sensor node. 20. A system for sensor node management, the system comprising: an enterprise server operable to: receive a message indicating that a sensor node is active, determine the type of data generated by the sensor node, determine a transformation for generating a seal condition based on the determined type of data, determine if the sensor node is part of a sensor network, if the sensor node is part of a sensor network, instruct the sensor node how to operate with other sensor nodes of the sensor network, receive a registration request from a user interface device, determine whether the user interface device should receive a representation of the seal condition, determine how to transform sensor node data for the user interface device, receive sensor node data, transform the data into a seal condition, determine whether a sensor node requires a programming update, and if the sensor node requires a programming update, send a program update to the sensor node; and a data server operable to: designate a location to store data of the determined type of data, and receive and store the sensor node data.
