Managing and Mining Sensor Data, 2013

Advances in hardware technology have lead to an ability to collect data with the use of a variety of sensor technologies. In particular sensor notes have become cheaper and more efficient, and  have even been integrated into day-to-day devices of use, such as mobile phones. This has lead to a much larger scale of applicability and mining of sensor data sets. The human-centric aspect of sensor data has created tremendous opportunities in integrating social aspects of sensor data collection into the mining process. 

Managing and Mining Sensor Data is a contributed volume by prominent leaders in this field, targeting advanced-level students in computer science as a secondary text book or reference. Practitioners and researchers working in this field will also find this book useful. 

Structured as a set of survey chapters, the book provides easy access to the material from a vast area in one place

Cross-disciplinary approach with topics related to both data-centric and sensor-centric aspects

Topics include: Stream Management Systems, Event Processing in Sensor Streams, Multimedia Sensor Mining, Social Sensing, Sensing for Mobile Objects
