Power-aware data analysis in sensor networks
Daniel Klan, Katja Hose, Marcel Karnstedt, Kai-Uwe Sattler · 2010
Sensor networks have evolved to a powerful infrastructure component for event monitoring in many application scenarios. In addition to simple filter and aggregation operations, an important task in processing sensor data is data mining - the identification of relevant information and patterns. Limited capabilities of sensor nodes in terms of storage and processing capacity, battery lifetime, and communication demand a power-efficient, preferably sensor-local processing. In this paper, we present AnduIN, a system for developing, deploying, and running in-network data mining tasks. The system consists of a data stream processing engine, a library of operators for sensor-local processing, a box-and-arrow editor for specifying data mining tasks and deployment, a GUI providing the user with current information about the network and running queries, and an alerter notifying the user if a better query execution plan is available. At the demonstration site, we plan to show our system in action using burst detection as example application.
