The service architecture of the SCAMPI platform will be built form scratch. There has been interest to use RESTful like approach; however, the opportunistic aspects of the network impose several challenges on the approach. Thus, one of our major interests in this workshop is to hear more about recent work in Constrained RESTful Environments (CORE) working group. Moreover, energy efficiency is a...

Species-area relationships (SPARs) dictate a people reduce the area available to wild species, they impose a linear reduction of the earth’s species diversity sea change in the strategies of biodiversity conservation. SPARs exist at three ecological scales: Sample-area SPARs that will follow the largest of these scales, i.e. each 1% reduction of natural area will cost about 1% of steady(a large...

Building up community web sites for sensor-based application like weather portals, traffic information, or stock data are problematic when the members of the community have little knowledge about data processing and visualization. Available middlewares and platforms do offer sufficient services to help users to fulfill important tasks on the way to their own community platform like filtering, a...

Sowohl für Unternehmen aus zahlreichen Anwendungsbranchen als auch für Privatpersonen hat die Integration von Sensordaten in unterschiedlichste Applikationen in den letzten Jahren enorm an Bedeutung gewonnen. Durch proprietäre System, heterogene Sensoren sowie unflexible Anwendungen wird dieses dynamische Einbinden von Sensorinformationen für Anwendungsentwickler schwierig bis unmöglich. Ziel d...
