| Abstract |
In large, distributed systems, such as a sensor web, allocating resources to tasks that span multiple providers presents significant challenges. Individual subtasks associated with a task could potentially be assigned to a number of agents (e.g., when there is overlap in sensor or data processing capability among constituent sensor networks). This problem is further compounded by the dynamic nature of a sensor web, in which both desired tasks and resource availability change with time and environmental conditions. |
