Orchestration support for participatory sensing campaigns [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2014 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing, 2014
In this paper we argue the need for orchestration support for participatory campaigns to achieve campaign quality, and automatisation of said support to achieve scalability, both issues contributing to stakeholder usability. This goes further than providing support for defining campaigns, an issue tackled in prior work.

Towards preserving privacy in participatory sensing [PDF]

open access: yes2011 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications Workshops (PERCOM Workshops), 2011
With the abundance and ubiquity of mobile devices, a new class of applications is emerging, called participatory sensing (PS), where people can contribute data (e.g., images, video) collected by their mobile devices to central data servers. However, privacy concerns are becoming a major impediment in the success of many participatory sensing systems ...
