چکیده

Location-aware services are a promising way of exploiting the special possibilities created by ubiquitous mobile devices and wireless communication. Advanced location-aware applications will require highly accurate information about the geographic location of mobile objects and functionality that goes beyond simply querying the user's position, for example determining all mobile objects inside a certain geographic area. In this paper, we propose a generic large-scale location service, which has been designed with the goal of managing the highly dynamic location information for a large number of mobile objects, thus providing a common infrastructure that can be employed by location-aware applications. We propose a hierarchical distributed architecture, which can efficiently process these queries in a scalable way. To be able to deal with the frequent updates and queries resulting from highly dynamic location information, we propose a data storage component, which makes use of a main memory database.

LPKP: location-based probabilistic key pre-distribution scheme for large-scale wireless sensor networks using graph coloring

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
