On the Trade-Off Between User-Location Privacy and Queried-Location Privacy in Wireless Sensor Networks
Download2009
Harms, Janelle, Vogt, Ryan, Nascimento, Mario
Technical report TR09-07. By eavesdropping on a user's query in a sensor network, an adversary can deduce both the user's location and his/her area of interest. In many domains it is desirable to guarantee privacy of both places. Relying on the principle of k-anonymity, we propose an effective...

Mobile objects can be equipped with sensors enabling them to collect data, as well as answer queries remotely and in real-time. For that, one needs to be able to effectively route queries from a base station to the queried object in an efficient way, i.e., with minimum energy-cost and/or minimum...

Alencar, Romulo, Nascimento, Mario, Brayner, Angelo
Technical report TR09-05. It is a well known fact that minimizing energy consumption in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is crucial for its usability; and minimizing the flow of data is one way to achieve that. Most WSN models assume the existence of a base station where query results could in...

Nascimento, Mario, Sander, Joerg, Coman, Alexandru
Technical report TR05-23. Wireless sensor networks are made of autonomous devices that are able to collect information, store it, process it and share it with other devices. Such framework can be used to efficiently query spatiotemporal data, e.g., for monitoring humidity and temperature levels...
