Towards a Geocentric Mobile Syndication System

Abstract

The present paper proposes a new approach towards filtering and processing the ever growing quantity of data published from mobile devices before it even reaches the Internet. We tackle this issue by circumscribing data to the zone where it is published (geocentricity) and allowing mobile device owners to republish the data they deem relevant (syndication). Results we obtained through simulation show that our solution enables to extract information that is relevant for a majority of users, whilst allowing less relevant data to be exchanged on a more local scale before it disappears entirely.
