Evacuation is one of the most urgent measures of disaster response. It requires
spatiotemporal decision making by many individual agents under circumstances that include …

The capability to query the topology of spatial regions is fundamental to today's centralized
spatial computing systems, like spatial databases and GIS. By contrast, this paper explores …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can span large geographical regions and collaboratively
monitor environmental phenomena, for example, forest fires. By designing a WSN to detect …

Qualitative information about topological events, like the merging or splitting of spatial
regions, has many important applications in environmental monitoring. Examples of such …

This article presents an algorithm for decentralized (in-network) data mining of the
movement pattern flock among mobile geosensor nodes. The algorithm DDIG (Deferred …

This paper is aimed at introducing a new approach to estimate the density of Brown Plant
Hoppers (BPHs) at provincial scale. The model is based on the topology of a light-traps …

Computing in distributed systems increasingly occurs somewhere, with that location being
integral to computational process itself. Ambient spatial intelligence (AmSI) is concerned …

This paper proposes an efficient, decentralized algorithm for determining the topological
relationship between two regions monitored by a geosensor network. Many centralized …

Geosensor networks present unique resource constraints to spatial computation, including
limited battery power, communication constraints, and frequently a lack of coordinate …

Wireless sensor networks are deployed to monitor dynamic geographic phenomena, or
objects, over space and time. This paper presents a new spatiotemporal data model for …
