A pure P2P paradigm for query processing in mobile ad-hoc networks
Thao P. Nghiem, Agustinus Borgy Waluyo · 2011
Together with the advance of positioning and mobile technologies, P2P query processing has attracted a growing interest number of location-aware applications such as answering kNN queries in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks. It not only overcomes drawbacks of centralized paradigms; for example single point of failure and bottle-neck issues, but more importantly harnesses power of peers' collaboration. In this research, we propose a pure mobile P2P query processing with novel searching and validating algorithms to find kNNs without support from the base station. The simulation results show that our paradigm can make use of data sharing from peers to save energy consumption on querying at least six times compared with centralized and hybrid paradigms in a reasonable mean latency of processing time for networks with high density of moving objects.
