The present invention provides a method, system and program product for deploying and allocating resources, and addressing threats in an autonomic sensor network ecosystem. Specifically, under the present invention, the autonomic sensor network ecosystem includes a set (e.g., one or more) of sensor networks each having a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer; a set of micro grid gateways; and a set of enterprise gateways. Each micro grid gateway is typically adapted to receive requests from a sensor network, an enterprise gateway, and/or another micro grid gateway. Moreover, each micro grid gateway includes a request broker for receiving the requests; a request queue manager for queuing the requests; a scheduler for scheduling the requests; and a resource manager for monitoring the set of sensor networks.

We claim: 1. An autonomic sensor network ecosystem, comprising:a set of sensor networks each comprising a set of sensor peers and at least one super peer;every sensor peer in the set of sensor peers configured to create peer information for the sensor peer, wherein the peer information comprises an identifier, a role, a resource availability, a relative location within the sensor network and physical data about a physical environment of the sensor peer, wherein the resource availability includes computational ability or memory resources of the sensor peer;the at least one super peer configured to collect the peer information from each sensor peer, maintain a table of the peer information corresponding to each sensor peer, and relate the peer information to a set of micro grid gateways;the set of micro grid gateways in communication with the set of sensor networks, each micro grid gateway configured to create gateway information for the micro grid gateway, wherein the gateway information comprises an identifier, a role, a resource availability and a relative location for each sensor network within the sensor network ecosystem and wherein the resource availability includes computational ability or memory resources of each gateway; anda set of enterprise gateways in communication with the set of micro grid gateways, wherein the set of micro grid gateways are adapted to poll the set of sensor networks for available resources and receive requests for computational transactions from the set of sensor networks and the set of enterprise gateways and route the requests based on the role of each sensor peer, the resource availability of each sensor peer, the physical data about the physical environment of each sensor peer, the relative location of each sensor peer within the sensor network and the gateway information.
