Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a survey of the state-of-the art in the exciting and timely topic of compressed sensing for distributed systems. It has to be noted that, while compressed sensing has been studied for some time now, its distributed applications are relatively new. Remarkably, such applications are ideally suited to exploit all the benefits that compressed sensing can provide. The objective of this book is to provide the reader with a comprehensive survey of this topic, from the basic concepts to different classes of centralized and distributed reconstruction algorithms, as well as a comparison of these techniques. This book collects different contributions on these aspects. It presents the underlying theory in a complete and unified way for the first time, presenting various signal models and their use cases. It contains a theoretical part collecting latest results in rate-distortion analysis of distributed compressed sensing, as well as practical implementations of algorithms obtaining performance close to the theoretical bounds. It presents and discusses various distributed reconstruction algorithms, summarizing the theoretical reconstruction guarantees and providing a comparative analysis of their performance and complexity. In summary, this book will allow the reader to get started in the field of distributed compressed sensing from theory to practice. We believe that this book can find a broad audience among researchers, scientists, or engineers with very diverse backgrounds, having interests in mathematical optimization, network systems, graph theoretical methods, linear systems, stochastic systems, and randomized algorithms. To help the reader become familiar with the theory and algorithms presented, accompanying software is made available on the authors’ web site, implementing several of the algorithms described in the book. The only background required of the reader is a good knowledge of advanced calculus and linear algebra.

Download or read book GeoSensor Networks written by Silvia Nittel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2008-08-15 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume serves as the post-conference proceedings for the Second GeoSensor Networks Conference that was held in Boston, Massachusetts in October 2006. The conference addressed issues related to the collection, management, processing, ana- sis, and delivery of real-time geospatial data using distributed geosensor networks. This represents an evolution of the traditional static and centralized geocomputational paradigm, to support the collection of both temporally and spatially high-resolution, up-to-date data over a broad geographic area, and to use sensor networks as actuators in geographic space. Sensors in these environments can be static or mobile, and can be used to passively collect information about the environment or, eventually, to actively influence it. The research challenges behind this novel paradigm extend the frontiers of tra- tional GIS research further into computer science, addressing issues like data stream processing, mobile computing, location-based services, temporal-spatial queries over geosensor networks, adaptable middleware, sensor data integration and mining, au- mated updating of geospatial databases, VR modeling, and computer vision. In order to address these topics, the GSN 2006 conference brought together leading experts in these fields, and provided a three-day forum to present papers and exchange ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wireless sensor network (WSN) uses a number of autonomous devices to cooperatively monitor physical or environmental conditions via a wireless network. Since its military beginnings as a means of battlefield surveillance, practical use of this technology has extended to a range of civilian applications including environmental monitoring, natural disaster prediction and relief, health monitoring and fire detection. Technological advancements, coupled with lowering costs, suggest that wireless sensor networks will have a significant impact on 21st century life.

Download or read book Self Organized Inference of Spatial Structure in Randomly Deployed Sensor Networks written by Neena A. George and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randomly deployed wireless sensor networks are becoming increasingly viable for applications such as environmental monitoring, battlefield awareness, tracking and smart environments. Such networks can comprise anywhere from a few hundred to thousands of sensor nodes, and these sizes are likely to grow with advancing technology, making scalability a primary concern. Each node in these sensor networks is a small unit with limited resources and localized sensing and communication. Thus, all global tasks must be accomplished through self-organized distributed algorithms, which also lead to improved scalability, robustness and flexibility. In this thesis, we examine the use of distributed algorithms to infer the spatial structure of an extended environment monitored by a self organizing sensor network. Based on its sensing, the network segments the environment into regions with distinct characteristics, thereby inferring a cognitive map of the environment. This, in turn, can be used to answer global queries about the environment efficiently and accurately. We consider distributed machine learning techniques for segmentation. We also present a heuristic for segmenting within boundaries to obtain distinct segments and study the variation of segmentation quality with reconstruction at different node densities and in environments of varying complexity.
