—This paper studies economic models of user participation incentive in participatory sensing applications. User participation is the most important element in participatory sensi...
We consider problems of geometric exploration and selfdeployment for simple robots that can only sense the combinatorial (non-metric) features of their surroundings. Even with suc...
We bound the number of sensors required to achieve a desired level of sensing accuracy in a discrete sensor network application (e.g. distributed detection). We model the state of...
As energy consumption in high-performance systems has increased, thermal management has become a big challenge. Providing a cost-effective and detailed temperature sensing mechani...
