An important type of spatial queries for sensor networks are K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) queries. Currently, research proposals for KNN query processing is based on index structures,...
This work addresses the problem of optimizing the deployment of sensors in order to ensure the quality of the readings of the value of interest in a given (critical) geographic re...
Sensor networks present a number of novel programming challenges for application developers. Their inherent limitations of computational power, communication bandwidth, and energy...
In this position paper, we present MEADOWS, a software framework that we are building at HKUST (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology) for modeling, emulation, and an...

A distributed data-stream architecture finds application in sensor networks for monitoring environment and activities. In such a network, large numbers of sensors deliver continu...
We consider the in-network computation of approximate “big picture” summaries in bandwidth-constrained sensor networks. First we review early work on computing the Haar wavele...
