ABSTRACT:
Self-healing is the ability of a system to recover from
faults and restore itself to normal operation without human
intervention. Since wireless sensor networks are inherently
fault-prone, scalable self-healing is crucial for enabling
the deployment of large-scale sensor network applications.
Prof. Demirbas' work on "local-healing" addresses the scalability
of the cost-overhead of self-healing: By confining the contamination
of the network due to faults, this approach achieves healing within
work and time proportional to the perturbation size instead of
the network size. In this talk, he will present samplers from
his work on local healing in the context of clustering and tracking
problems that appear in large-scale wireless sensor network
deployments such as the "Line In The Sand" project.
BIO:
Murat Demirbas received his Master's and Ph.D. degrees from The
Ohio State University in 2000 and 2004, respectively. While at
the Ohio State University Murat was involved in the development
and deployment of a 100 node wireless sensor network, ``Line In
The Sand'', for detection, classification, and tracking, which
paved the way to the ``ExScal'' network with 1000 nodes. After
a one-year post-doc with the Theory of Computing Group at MIT,
Murat is currently a tenure-track assistant professor at the
Computer Science and Engineering Department at SUNY Buffalo. His
research interests are in the area of wireless sensor networks,
distributed systems, and fault tolerance.
