Abstract
The broad use ofWireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in various fields have resulted in growing demand for advanced data collection and querying mechanisms embedded in the sensor node. Sensor Web Services (SWS) have recently emerged as a promising tool to enable external machines to have access to the information collected by public sensor webs. Machine-to-machine interactions or wireless sensor and actor networks can take advantage of this platform-independent technology to develop diverse smart grid applications. In this survey, we first briefly present the state of the art in SWS technology by describing the techniques for customizing web services to fit the sensor node capabilities such as customizing the WSDL file, compressing XML documents and redesigning TCP protocol. Then, we survey the studies that have utilized the SWS technology in smart grid applications. These studies have shown that SWS provide energy management capabilities to the consumers and the utilities, and they are well suited for smart grid integrated smart home solutions.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network of low-cost sensor nodes which have the ability of collecting data from their surroundings and transmitting those data to their peers or a sink node via. Available WSNs have the capability of forming the sensor web which can be considered as an extension of the future internet towards smart devices, i.e., Internet of Things (IoT). By the use of sensor web services, physical information from smart homes, Plug-in Hybrid. Besides data collection and querying capabilities, sensor web services can provide remote management capabilities, which enriches the ability of a wireless sensor and actor network to respond to events in the smart home and the smart grid and in a broader concept, a smart planet [4].
