Data management is used in wireless networks to enable a wide variety of applications, ranging from the monitoring of natural habitats to distributed publish-subscribe mechanisms in order to enable the coordination of entities. In particular, data management includes different subtopics/subfunctionalities, such as data storage, retrieval, dissemination, collection, routing, version and space management, which, in most cases, are implemented in combination to realize different applications. Wireless networks typically consist of resource-constrained battery-powered nodes. Their radios consume relatively high amounts of energy compared to other wireless node components, so data management needs to be as efficient as possible.
The seminar (ESS, S2, 4 ECTS credits) deals with the latest research in the area of data management in wireless networks. It will be held in English as compact/block seminar: all seminar meetings will be within a two-day block in the first half of the semester. The concrete dates for this will be determined in an initial meeting at the beginning of the semester.
Modules: Verteilte Rechnersysteme, Rechnernetze
Dates: block seminar
Type: ESS, S2, 4 ECTS credits, for master students
