Bio-inspired Think-and-Share Optimization for Big Data Provenance in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

Big data systems are being increasingly adopted by the enterprises exploiting big data applications to manage data-driven process, practices, and systems in an enterprise wide context. Specifically, big data systems and their underlying applications empower enterprises with analytical decision making (e.g., recommender/decision support systems) to optimize organizational productivity, competitiveness, and growth. Despite these benefits, big data applications face some challenges that include but not limited to security and privacy, authenticity, and reliability of critical data that may result in propagation of false information across systems. Data provenance as an approach and enabling mechanism (to identify the origin, manage the creation, and track the propagation of information etc.) can be a solution to above mentioned challenges for data management in an enterprise context. Data provenance solution(s) can help stakeholders and enterprises to assess the quality of data along with authenticity, reliability, and trust of information on the basis of identity, reproducibility and integrity of data. Considering the wide spread adoption of big data applications and the needs for data provenance, this paper focuses on (i) analyzing state-of-the-art for holistic presentation of provenance in big-data applications (ii) proposing a bio-inspired approach with underlying algorithm that exploits human thinking approach to support data provenance in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The proposed ‘Think-and-Share Optimization’ (TaSO) algorithms modularizes and automates data provenance in WSNs that are deployed and operated in enterprises. Evaluation of TaSO algorithm demonstrates its efficiency in terms of connectivity, closeness to the sink node, coverage, and execution time. The proposed research contextualizes bio-inspired computation to enable and optimize data provenance in WSNs. Future research aims to exploit machine learning techniques (with underlying algorithms) to automate data provenance for big data systems in networked environments.
