Project Description

In recent years, with tremendous advances in areas like mobile devices, algorithms for distributed systems, communication technology or protocols, all basic technological pieces to realise a Smart City are at hand. Missing, however, is a mechanism that bridges these pieces to ease the creation of Smart Cities at a larger scale. In our previous work, an opportunistic sensing platform has been proposed as an enabling technology for smart cities[1] [2].

In this project, students will develop such opportunistic social sensing platform.
