“…Spatial and temporal data of earth's geographical and geological entities are consistently captured through various instruments and sensors. Ubiquitous networks are available to collect real world data and the data is analyzed and integrated to manage urban information systems and often referred as smarter planet systems [2]. In smart city business and administrative operations of various entities are carried using ICT available from innumerable network available on the earth sphere and IBM has defined its view of a smarter planet system through three major IT characteristics, instrumented, interconnected and intelligent.…”

“…The matching between the large-scale device collaboration demand and device resources is the basis of the realization of WMSN applications. The resource ability matching technique [4], which is always a research hotspot in the field of collaboration technology [5][6][7], is realized by matching the requirement of virtual device capacity with the description of device resource ability.…”

In wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs), wirelessly interconnected devices are able to ubiquitously retrieve multimedia contents such as video and audio streams from the environment. However, since WMSN applications are large-scale, dynamic and highly concurrent, how to achieve both effective multimedia device resource management and collaborative task scheduling simultaneously becomes a serious problem. In this paper, using the hierarchical modeling technique, we first propose a device ability model including spatial information. In order to solve the problem of insufficient capacity of single devices, we then give a composite device ability model and relevant calculation formulae. Next, we introduce a novel device resource matching technique based on the proposed model. Compared with previous works, experimental results show that our technique achieves better recall and precision and meets WMSN application needs more effectively. Furthermore, our proposed approach greatly reduces the design complexity as well as the workload of application designers.

The ongoing proliferation of sensing technologies constitutes a huge potential for context-aware computing. It allows selecting relevant information about our physical environment from different sources and providers all over the globe. A fundamental challenge is how to provide efficient access to these immense amounts of distributed dynamic context information -particularly due to the mobility of devices and other entities. To enable such access to current and past position information about moving objects, we propose a family of protocols (CDR, GRTS) for efficiently tracking a moving objects trajectory at some remote database in real-time as well as a distributed indexing scheme (DTI) for optimized access to trajectory data that is partitioned in space to multiple database servers. For discovering context information that is relevant for the situation of an application, we propose a powerful formalism for describing context models in a concise manner and a tailored multidimensional data structure (SDC-Tree) for retrieving relevant context models out of potentially millions of descriptions.
