Online Participatory Sensing in Double Auction Environment with Location Information

Abstract: As mobile devices have been ubiquitous, participatory sensing emerges as a powerful tool to solve many contemporary real life problems. Here, we contemplate the participatory sensing in online double auction environment by considering the location information of the participating agents. In this paper, we propose a truthful mechanism in this setting and the mechanism also satisfies the other economic properties such as budget balance and individual rationality.
