Real-time data analytics in sensor networks

Abstract

The proliferation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in the past decade has provided the bridge between the physical and digital worlds, enabling the monitoring and study of physical phenomena at a granularity and level of detail that was never before possible. In this study, we review the efforts of the research community with respect to two important problems in the context of WSNs: real-time collection of the sensed data, and real-time processing of these data series.
