Recognizing daily activities with RFID-based sensors
We explore a dense sensing approach that uses RFID sensor network technology to recognize human activities. In our setting, everyday objects are instrumented with UHF RFID tags ca...

Distributed algorithms for guiding navigation across a sensor network
We develop distributed algorithms for self-organizing sensor networks that respond to directing a target through a region. The sensor network models the danger levels sensed acros...

Using virtual markets to program global behavior in sensor networks
This paper presents market-based macroprogramming (MBM), a new paradigm for achieving globally efficient behavior in sensor networks. Rather than programming the individual, low-...
