| Abstract | Summary form only given. Wireless sensor networks create an innovative technology that enables users to monitor and study the physical world at an extremely high resolution. Query processing in such ad-hoc environments is a challenging task due to the complexities imposed by the inherent energy and communication constraints. To this end, the research community has proposed to take into account user-defined parameters in order to derive the K most relevant (or Top-K) answers quickly and efficiently A Top-K query returns the subset of most relevant answers, in place of all answers, for two reasons: i) to minimize the cost metric that is associated with the retrieval of all answers; and ii) to improve the recall and the precision of the answer set, such that the user is not overwhelmed with irrelevant results. This tutorial presents the fundamental concepts behind distributed Top- K query processing and the adaptations of these algorithms to distributed and wireless sensor networks. It additionally provides a gentle overview of rudimentary and advanced techniques covering a significant body of research in this domain. The tutorial will start out with an overview of the most influential centralized and middleware Top-K query processing algorithms and then proceed with an elaborate description of distributed Top-K ranking algorithms for one-time top-k queries, continuous top-k queries and approximate top-k queries. Finally, it will provide an outlook to compelling future applications that can be constructed on the foundation of these algorithms. Although the tutorial is specifically geared towards wireless sensor networks, many of the presented ideas find extensions in other mobile environments such as adhoc networks, vehicular networks and the mobile Web. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
