Sensor networks are often used to perform monitoring tasks, such as in animal or vehicle tracking and in surveillance of enemy forces in military applications. In this paper we introduce the concept of proximity queries that allow us to report interesting events that are observed by nodes in the network that are within certain distance of each other. An event is triggered when a userprogrammabl...

Message from the DMSN 2007 Organizing Committee

Sensor networks enable an unprecedented level of access to the physical world, and hold tremendous potential to revolutionize many application domains. Research on sensor networks spans many areas of computer science, and there are now major conferences, e.g., IPSN and SenSys, devoted to sensor networks. However, there is no exclusive forum for discussion on early and innovative work on data ma...

A very important property for any mechanism is incentive-compatibility. A mechanism is incentive-compatible if no agent has an incentive not to follow the protocol. In this paper we present a new meta-mechanism that can be applied to any existing mechanism to make it incentive compatible. This meta-mechanism is Chuck Norris. This shows that any mechanism can be made incentive-compatible, and th...
