Towards Mobile Sensor-Aware Crowdsourcing: Architecture, Opportunities and Challenges
نویسندگان
چکیده
The recent success of general purpose crowdsourcing platforms like Amazon Mechanical Turk paved the way for a plethora of crowd-enabled applications and workflows. However, the variety of tasks which can be approached via such crowdsourcing platforms is limited by constraints of the web-based interface. In this paper, we propose mobile user interface clients. Switching to mobile clients has the potential to radically change the way crowdsourcing is performed, and allows for a new breed of crowdsourcing tasks. Here, especially the ability to tap into the wealth of precision sensors embedded in modern mobile hardware is a game changer. In this paper, we will discuss opportunities and challenges resulting from such a platform, and discuss a reference architecture.

Energy consumption is considered as a critical issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Batteries of sensor nodes have limited power supply which in turn limits services and applications that can be supported by them. An efcient solution to improve energy consumption and even trafc in WSNs is Data Aggregation (DA) that can reduce the number of transmissions. Two main challenges for DA are: (i)...

متن کاملAn Efficient Routing Algorithm to Lifetime Expansion in Wireless Sensor Networks
This paper proposes an efficient network architecture to improve energy consumption in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The proposed architecture uses a mobile data collector to a partitioned network. The mobile data collector moves to center of each logical partition after each decision period. The mobile data collector must declare its new location by packet broadcasting to all sensor node...
