Mobile crowd-sensing is a prospective paradigm especially for intelligent mobile terminals,
which collects ubiquitous data efficiently in metropolis. The existing crowd-sensing schemes …

The motivation for writing this book came from our previous research works on sensor
coverage. They received a large number of citations and this number grows rapidly each …

In a wireless sensor network, a subset of sensor nodes provides a barrier-coverage over an
area of interest if the sensor nodes are dividing the area into two regions such that any …

For urban crowdsourcing applications, the data sensing tasks can be achieved by vehicles
traveling on the roads, which can save the expenses on constructing dedicated …

Advances in new technologies are changing the Internet of Things (IoTs) from vehicular ad
hoc networks (VANETs) to Internet of Vehicles (IoVs). This IoV needs to construct a network …

Largely speaking, Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a special type of Mobile Adhoc
Network (MANET), which has been a subject of numerous investigations over last decades …

A region is a belt if its boundary consists of two parts such that every point in one part has
equal distance to the other part. This distance is called width and these two parallel …

In this paper, we introduce a new strategy of using VANET nodes with visual sensors and
wireless transceivers to build an instant camera barrier for a given mission period. Given a …
