Abstract:

The Telegraph project and related efforts at Berkeley are investigating a range of novel approaches to processing queries in dynamic, deeply-networked environments. These efforts share common themes, such as adaptability, continuous processing, and work sharing, but focus on different environments including: ad hoc sensor networks, XML filtering and routing, data dissemination, and mobile computing. In this talk I will survey these efforts and discuss some of the lessons we have learned so far.
