Orchestration support for participatory sensing campaigns [PDF]
Proceedings 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.
