Wireless sensor networks are capable of collecting an enormous amount of data over space and time. Often, the ultimate objective is to derive an estimate of a parameter or functio...
Increasing user comfort and reducing operation costs have always been two primary objectives of building operations and control strategies. Current building control strategies are...

Abstract-- We present a new, biologically-inspired algorithm for the problem of covering a given region with wireless "units" (sensors or base-stations). The general prob...
Wireless sensor networks are proving to be useful in a variety of settings. A core challenge in these networks is to minimize energy consumption. Prior database research has propo...

We study the problem of providing a sensor with an accurate estimate of the time, from a novel perspective which is complementary to the well-studied clock synchronization problem....
