Secure Distributed Human Computation
We suggest a general paradigm of using large-scale distributed computation to solve difficult problems, but where humans can act as agents and provide candidate solutions. We are e...

Grid Coverage for Surveillance and Target Location in Distributed Sensor Networks
We present novel grid coverage strategies for effective surveillance and target location in distributed sensor networks. We represent the sensor field as a grid (two or three-dimen...
