Earthquake monitoring using volunteer smartphone-based sensor networks

چکیده
We introduce here the Earthquake Network project which implements a world-wide smartphone-based sensor network for the detection of earthquakes. Thanks to the accelerometric sensor, smartphones possibly detect the waves of a quake and report the event to a cloud computing infrastructure. In this work, we propose a solution to the detection problem based on statistical modelling the arrival times of the smartphone reports.
