The ability to store and query uncertain information is of great benefit to databases that infer values from a set of observations, including databases of moving objects, sensor r...
Abstract-- The need for efficient computation of approximate global state lies at the heart of a wide range of problems in distributed systems. Examples include routing in the Inte...
Personalization is a powerful mechanism that helps users to cope with the abundance of information on the Web. Database query personalization achieves this by dynamically construc...
In this paper we introduce the idea of snapshot queries for energy efficient data acquisition in sensor networks. Network nodes generate models of their surrounding environment th...
In the emerging area of sensor-based systems, a significant challenge is to develop scalable, fault-tolerant methods to extract useful information from the data the sensors collec...
