Networked, distributed real world sensing is an increasingly prominent topic in computing and has quickly expanded from resource constrained “sensor networks” measuring simple...
Middleware support for pervasive context-aware systems relieves context-aware applications from dealing with the complexity of context-specific operations such as context acquisit...

This paper presents a distributed middleware architecture based on a service-oriented approach, to manage high volume sensor events. Event management takes a multi-step operation f...
Many real-life organizations are hierarchies of largely autonomous, heterogeneous members (individuals or other organizations), often exhibiting rich policies. We restrict our att...
—Epidemic-based communications, or “gossiping”, provides a robust and scalable method for maintaining a knowledge base in a sensor network faced with an unpredictable network...
