In a large sensor network, in-network data aggregation, i.e., combining partial results at intermediate nodes during message routing, significantly reduces the amount of communic...
We consider the Outsourced Aggregation model, where sensing services outsource their sensor data collection and aggregation tasks to third-party service providers called aggregato...
Truly ubiquitous computing poses new and significant challenges. A huge number of heterogeneous devices will interact to perform complex distributed tasks. One of the key aspects...
