Abstract:
With the development of Internet of Things and mobile social networking techniques, Mobile Crowd Sensing and Computing (MCSC), which leverages cross-space, heterogeneous crowdsourced data for large-scale sensing and computing, has become a promising research area. Layered on top of the participatory sensing vision, MCSC has two characterizing features: (1) it leverages both sensed data from mobile devices and user-contributed data from mobile social networking services; and (2) it presents the fusion of machine and human intelligence in both sensing and computing process. In this talk, we will present the unique features, key challenges, and research opportunities of MCSC. Our research efforts to MCSC will also be presented.
