As sensors become ubiquitous, a set of broad requirements is beginning to emerge across high-priority applications including disaster preparedness and management, adaptability to climate change, national or homeland security, and the management of critical infrastructures. This book presents innovative solutions in offline data mining and real-time analysis of sensor or geographically distributed data. It discusses the challenges and requirements for sensor data based knowledge discovery solutions in high-priority application illustrated with case studies. It explores the fusion between heterogeneous data streams from multiple sensor types and applications in science, engineering, and security.

This volume contains extended papers from Sensor-KDD 2008, the Second - ternational Workshop on Knowledge Discovery from Sensor Data. The second Sensor-KDDworkshopwasheldinLasVegasonAugust24,2008,inconjunction with the 14th ACM SIGKDD InternationalConference on KnowledgeDiscovery and Data Mining. Wide-area sensor infrastructures, remote sensors, and wireless sensor n- works, RFIDs, yield massive volumes of disparate, dynamic, and geographically distributeddata.Assuchsensorsarebecomingubiquitous,asetofbroadrequi- ments is beginning to emerge across high-priority applications including dis- ter preparedness and management, adaptability to climate change, national or homelandsecurity,andthe managementofcriticalinfrastructures.Therawdata from sensors need to be e?ciently managed and transformed to usable infor- tion through data fusion, which in turn must be converted to predictive insights via knowledge discovery, ultimately facilitating automated or human-induced tactical decisions or strategic policy based on decision sciences and decision s- port systems.The expected ubiquity of sensors in the near future, combined with the cr- ical roles they are expected to play in high-priority application solutions, points to an era of unprecedented growth and opportunities. The main motivation for the Sensor-KDD series of workshops stems from the increasing need for a forum to exchange ideas and recent research results, and to facilitate coll- oration and dialog between academia, government, and industrial stakeho- ers. This is clearly re?ected in the successful organization of the ?rst workshop (http://www.ornl.gov/sci/knowledgediscovery/SensorKDD-2007/)alongwiththe ACMKDD-2007conference,whichwasattendedbymorethanseventyregistered participants, and resulted in an edited book (CRC Press, ISBN-9781420082326, 2008), and a special issue in the Intelligent Data Analysis journal (Volume 13, Number 3, 2009).
