Abstract

Pervasive smart cameras (PSC) are an emerging technology with the goal of providing user-centric and ubiquitous visual sensor networks. System autonomy and resource-awareness are challenging requirements making local image processing for event-based communication a necessary design constraint. In this paper we present the distributed event space (DES)---a middleware service for the resource-aware management of distributed event data. The DES architecture is based on a decentralized tuple space which describes local events by tuples consisting of position and time of the events as well as a set of features describing the detected objects. The DES supports prompt distribution of detected local events and application-specific functions for sophisticated event filtering. We present a distributed tracking application to demonstrate its applicability.
