| সংক্ষিপ্ত: | Conventional centralised information fusion and control architectures will be challenged by developments in sensor networks that allow sophisticated autonomous sensors, owned by different stakeholders with individual goals, to interact and share information. Given this, we advocate the use of tools and techniques from computational mechanism design (CMD), a field at the intersection of computer science, game theory and economics, to address the challenges posed by these networks. In particular, CMD allows us to engineer networks with desirable system-wide properties, in which sensors act as rational selfish agents, each attempting to fulfill their own individuals goals through the exchange of observations and information. In this paper, we present our work developing such networks. Specifically, we discuss our development of a generic and principled information valuation metric for sensor networks and we report our experiences applying it within a real world information fusion sensor network scenario.
