A Publish/Subscribe Platform Supporting Mobile Networks for Hybrid Sensor Networks
Abstract: Sparse sensor networks are cost-effective when deployed over large geographical areas. However, since sensor nodes cannot communicate with each other directly, how to connect those nodes to the Internet would be a problem. On the other hand, if traditional stationary sensors could be accessed from mobile phones, usability and functionality of participatory sensing applications could be enlarged. In this thesis, I design and implement a publish/subscribe platform which employing mobile phones connecting both stationary sensors and mobile sensors to the Internet. Through this platform, more sensor services could be utilized by participatory sensing applications and promising applications would be possible to emerge.
