A Processing Approach for Event-Based Location Aware Queries in Hybrid Wireless Sensor Networks

In hybrid wireless sensor networks,sensor mobility causes the query areas to change dynamically.Aiming at the problem of inefficiency in processing the data aggregation queries in dynamic query areas,this paper proposes a processing approach for event-based location aware queries(ELAQ),which includes query dissemination algorithm,maximum distance projection proxy selection algorithm,in-network query propagation,and aggregation algorithm.ELAQs are triggered by the events and the query results are dependent on mobile sensors’ location,which are the characteristics of ELAQ model.The results show that compared with the TinyDB query processing approach,ELAQ processing approach increases the accuracy of the query result and decreases the query response time.
