With more and more real deployments of
wireless sensor network applications, their success is
nonetheless determined by whether the sensor networks can
provide a high quality stream of data over a long period. In
this book, a consistency-driven data quality management
framework called Orchis is proposed. It integrates the
quality of data into an energy efficient sensor system
design.Orchis consists of four components, data consistency
models, adaptive data sampling and process
