At the end of 2014 the number of cellular subscribers is about to cross 7 billion worldwide. The ubiquitous presence of cell phones makes them an ideal platform for carrying out sensing tasks for next generation wireless sensor networks. In this book, the authors present human mobility based clustering algorithms for sensor data routing of Cell phone based sensor networks. Algorithms are presented for two different sensor data routing applications, namely monitoring and moving event localization. Presented algorithms use two novel human walk context metrics and perform better compared to...
