This study examines a hiring network for the iSchool community and finds that the perception of prestige among iSchools, as represented by the US News & World Report (USNWR) graduate school ratings, may be improve...

Historic Queries in Geosensor Networks

This paper addresses—to our knowledge, for the first time—the problem of querying a geosensor network—a sensor network of mobile, locationaware nodes—for historical data. It compares different network architectures and querying strategies with respect to their performance in reconstructing events or processes that happened in the past, trying to support the hypothesis that reconstruction is pos...

Queries for historic events in geosensor networks

Mining for historic data is relevant to study the behavior of complex systems. This paper addresses the problem of querying a geosensor network for historical data. Geosensor networks—sensor networks of mobile, location-aware nodes—are typically deployed for real-time observations and local analysis. This paper’s interest is in reconstructing historic states or events. The problem is relevant i...
