Abstract

The article discusses distributed information extraction from large-scale wireless sensor networks. The first subsection identifies a family of applications that could benefit from a higher-level information retrieval and delivery mechanism integrated into the WSN, and discusses the state of the art of deployment in a particular application. The following describes the requirements for an integrated high-level information retrieval engine and provides an overview of the prior art in complex queries and processing on a network. The next subsection defines WSN topologies, architectures and protocols suitable for modern information systems; this is followed by a description of a new hybrid approach called a distributed complex query processor.
