This work addresses problems that arise when geographic routing is used in the presence of holes in wireless sensor networks. We postulate that relying on the existing algorithms for bypassing a coverage hole may cause more severe depletion of the energy reserves among the nodes at (or near) that hole’s boundary. This, in turn, will render some of those nodes useless for any routing (and/or sensing)...
This work addresses the problem of efficient distributed detection of predicates capturing the motion trends of mobile objects evaluated with respect to a (boundary of a) polygonal region, in the settings in which the (location, time) data is obtained via tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). Specifically, we discuss in-network distributed algorithms for detecting two motion-trend predicates:...
This work presents a system for augmenting the functionality of Yelp-like recommendation sites by enabling users to search for places bounded by travel-time when using public transportation, and modifying recommendations based on updated weather conditions. Using public transport, although is cheaper and efficient, entails that only fixed places of boarding/exiting may be used which, in turn, implies...
We address the problem of efficient detection of destination-related motion trends in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) where tracking is done in collaborative manner among the sensor nodes participating in location detection. In addition to determining a single location, applications may need to detect whether certain properties are true for the (portion of the) entire trajectories. Transmitting the...
This work addresses the problem of synchronizing the sensors involved in the task of multiple object tracking (MOT) in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). We aim at reducing the overall in-network energy consumption along with bounding the uncertainty regarding targets' locations in WSN. Designing energy efficient scheduling mechanism is a challenge in WSN tracking scenarios due to the limitations on...
This work addresses the problem of geographic routing in the presence of holes or voids in wireless sensor networks. We postulate that, once the boundary of the hole has been established, relying on the existing algorithms for bypassing it may cause severe depletion of the energy reserves among the nodes at (or near) that boundary. This, in turn, may soon render some of those nodes useless for any...
This work addresses the problem of managing the sensor-coverage and organizing the epochs in a manner that balances the trades-offs between the accuracy and energy consumptions during target tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). While the typical target tracking approaches are based on movement prediction, we only assume a knowledge of some maximal speed of the target during certain time-intervals...
