Abstract

Sensor networks are getting much more complex these days. The mixture of various low-cost sensors together with increasing computational power enables for whole new systems running a lot of different analysis and control algorithms concurrently. It is impossible to anticipate their composition and data flows a priori. Although the actual data flows are hardly predictable during design-time, we present a lightweight and self-organizing approach on how shared data stores are used to optimize the storage allocation of data during run-time. While mostly using the existing traffic to disseminate routing information, we show that our distributed algorithm significantly reduces query latencies by placing data according to the access-centric storage paradigm.
