Abstract

In the next decade, networks of devices will be widely deployed for measurement, detection and surveillance applications. Millions of sensors and small-scale mobile devices will integrate processors, memory and communication capabilities. The Cornell COUGAR project studies how database technology can be adapted to meet the challenges of this new computing environment. In our novel concept of a device database system, physical devices are modeled as database objects. This permits large collections of devices to be controlled through declarative queries.
