To reduce the task computation delay and save the smartphone battery usage, there have been many efforts to offload the tasks from the mobile device to the remote cloud with a much higher computation ability. However, offloading tasks to cloud will cause extra transmission delays and energy consumption. In reality, timely task execution is very important because the task's utility decays with time. Therefore, there exists a delay-energy trade-off. This paper addresses the aforementioned challenge. The smartphone should take advantage of the cloud in high computation speed so that the smartphone can achieve the maximum utility with limited battery. We get a 2-approximation schedule on expectation by using a LP rounding algorithm. The real trace experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.","PeriodicalId":92575,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Eighth Wireless of the Students, by the Students, and for the Students Workshop.

The problem focuses on finding the optimal placement of cluster head nodes within the deployment field that minimizes the energy depletion while meeting network's coverage and connectivity requirements. Simulation results showed that reduction in energy consumption in a range of (16-24)% can be achieved by employing the optimization-based approach as compared to other standard placement methods.","PeriodicalId":92575,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Eighth Wireless of the Students, by the Students, and for the Students Workshop.

In this work, we present LAMEN, an initial attempt to use end devices at the edge to execute complex applications instead of offloading to the cloud, e.g., Augmented Reality. Unlike crowd-sensing where end devices are used as data collectors wasting their bandwidth in raw data transmission for cloud processing. LAMEN proposes a hierarchical architecture to group devices by location. Each group elects a head node, i.e., mediator, to control service delivery and execution. Within a group, mediators name and organize devices in terms of resources they hold. This enables efficiently locating suitable resources per application. We envision pushing application's execution to end devices to hold the following benefits: (a) avoid sharing user's data with cloud to maintain their privacy (b) minimize bandwidth misuse through local processing instead of raw data transmission to cloud and (c) introduce mediators as local cloud for composing homogenous large resources out of heterogeneous end devices and anonymizing user's identity. Our evaluation shows LAMEN to enhance resource lookup by 70% compared to similar approaches, i.e., Chord, and speeds up application distribution 500x than regular application download per device. In addition to, scalability in handling large networks up to 8k device per group.","PeriodicalId":92575,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Eighth Wireless of the Students, by the Students, and for the Students Workshop.

In this work, we address this concern by developing a system for smartphones that warns users when it detects an oncoming car. In addition to detecting the presence of a vehicle, it can also estimate the vehicle's driving direction. We achieve these goals by processing the acoustic signal captured by microphones embedded in the user's mobile phone. In order to achieve more robust and timely detection, we also explore two novel feature, namely, Power on Certain Frequencies and Top Right frequency.","PeriodicalId":92575,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Eighth Wireless of the Students, by the Students, and for the Students Workshop.

Third party applications continuously process and access location data without data owners granular control and without knowledge of how location data is being used. The proliferation of GPS enabled IoT devices will lead to larger scale abuses of trust. In this paper we present the first design and implementation of a privacy module built into the GPSD daemon. The GPSD daemon is a low-level GPS interface that runs on GPS enabled devices. The integration of the privacy module ensures that data owners have granular control over the release of their GPS location. We describe the design of our privacy module integration into the GPSD daemon.","PeriodicalId":92575,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Eighth Wireless of the Students, by the Students, and for the Students Workshop.
