Introduction

Since sensor readings are usually correlated with location, top-k nodes are clustered at some areas

This paper propose a novel tree structure to efficiently maintain clusters of the highest readings

Updating the POTs

If the size of GR is k, the new threshold is the same to the previous one.

Otherwise, the new threshold is set as the average of the and the

In each POT, only the nodes that have reported their readings are required to update their thresholds.

Conclusion

In sensor networks, sensor readings are usually correlated with their locations

In this paper proposed a novel structure to manage the highest readings and process top-k query
