COSE : a query-centric framework of collaborative heterogeneous sensor networks by He, Yuan., Li, Zhen Jiang.

“…In this paper, we propose COSE, a query-centric framework of collaborative heterogeneous sensor networks, where sensor networks collaborate with each other for effective and efficient processing of queries. Finding an optimal strategy of query processing with respect to energy efficiency is a crucial issue in COSE, which we formulate into an optimization problem, called EE-QPS. …”

Intraday adaptation to extreme temperatures in outdoor activity by Fan, Yichun, Wang, Jianghao, Obradovich, Nick, Zheng, Siqi

“…Combining empirical estimates with outputs from downscaled climate models, we show that unmitigated climate change will generate sizable activity-depressing and activity-delaying effects in summer when projected on an hourly resolution. Our findings call for more attention in leveraging real-time activity data to understand intraday adaptation behaviors and their associated health consequences in climate change research.…”
