Decentralized Spatial Computing: Foundations of Geosensor Networks

by Matt Duckham

Book Overview

Computing increasingly happens somewhere, with that geographic location important to the computational process itself. Many new and evolving spatial technologies, such as geosensor networks and smartphones, embody this trend. Conventional approaches to spatial computing are centralized, and do not account for the inherently decentralized nature of "computing somewhere" the limited, local knowledge of individual system components, and the interaction...
