Title: The Angle Coverage Problem in Visual Sensor Networks

Abstract: In a visual sensor network, every node is equipped with
a camera and the data to be collected and transmitted are images. 
Unlike sensors that measure temperature, humidity, etc., a camera
can only capture a certain side of an object. In other words, to
get a 360 view of an object, several cameras are needed. In this
talk, I will describe how we can identify a set of cameras that 
achieve 360 angle coverage with minimum cost efficiently in a
distributed manner.
