Summary

The wide deployment of wireless sensor and RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) devices is one of the key enablersfor next-generation pervasive computing applications, including large-scale environmental monitoring andcontrol, context-aware computing, and “smart digital homes”. Sensory readings are inherently unreliable andtypically exhibit strong temporal and spatial correlations (within and across different sensing devices); effectivereasoning over such unreliable streams introduces a host of new data management challenges. The Data Furnaceproject at Intel Research and UC-Berkeley aims to build a probabilistic data management infrastructure for pervasivecomputing environments that handles the uncertain nature of such data as a first-class citizen through aprincipled framework grounded in probabilistic models and inference techniques.
