Sensor Network Apps
Traditional monitoring apparatus.
Earthquake monitoring in shake-test sites.
Vehicle detection: sensors along a road, collect data about passing vehicles.
Habitat Monitoring: Storm petrels on Great Duck Island, microclimates on James Reserve.
Just the tip of the iceberg -- more tomorrow!

Declarative Queries
• Programming Apps is Hard– Limited power budget– Lossy, low bandwidth communication– Require long-lived, zero admin deployments– Distributed Algorithms– Limited tools, debugging interfaces
• Queries abstract away much of the complexity– Burden on the database developers– Users get:
• Safe, optimizable programs• Freedom to think about apps instead of details

A Brief History of Sensornets
• People have used sensors for a long time• Recent CS History:
– (1998) Pottie + Kaiser: Radio based networks of sensors
– (1998) Pister et al: Smart Dust• Initial focus on optical communication• By 1999, radio based networks, COTS Dust, “Motes”
– (1999) Estrin + Govindan• Ad-hoc networks of sensors
– (2000) Culler/Hill et al: TinyOS + Motes– (2002) Hill / Dust: SPEC, mm^3 scale computing
• UCLA / USC / Berkeley Continue to Lead Research•Many other players now•TinyOS/Motes as most common platform
• Emerging commercial space: • Crossbow, Ember, Dust, Sensicast, Moteiv, Intel

Why Now?
• Commoditization of radio hardware– Cellular and cordless phones, wireless
communication– (some radio pictures, etc.)
• Low cost -> many/tiny -> new applications!
• Real application for ad-hoc network research from the late 90’s
• Coming together of EE + CS communities

11
History of Motes
• Initial research goal wasn’t hardware– Has since become more of a priority with
emerging hardware needs, e.g.:• Power consumption• (Ultrasonic) ranging + localization
– MIT Cricket, NEST Project• Connectivity with diverse sensors
– UCLA sensor board
– Even so, now on the 5th generation of devices• Costs down to ~$50/node (Moteiv, Dust)• Greatly improved radio quality• Multitude of interfaces: USB, Ethernet, CF, etc.• Variety of form factors, packages
![Page 12: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Motes vs. Traditional Computing
• Lossy, Adhoc Radio Communication
• Sensing Hardware• Severe Power Constraints
![Page 13: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Radio Communication
• Low Bandwidth Shared Radio Channel– ~40kBits on motes– Much less in practice
• Encoding, Contention for Media Access (MAC)
• Very lossy: 30% base loss rate– Argues against TCP-like end-to-end
retransmission• And for link-layer retries
• Generally, not well behaved
From Ganesan, et al. “Complex Behavior at Scale.” UCLA/CSD-TR 02-0013

14
Types of Sensors
• Sensors attach via daughtercard
•Weather–Temperature–Light x 2 (high intensity PAR, low intensity, full spectrum)–Air Pressure–Humidity
•Vibration–2 or 3 axis accelerometers
•Tracking–Microphone (for ranging and acoustic signatures)–Magnetometer
• GPS
![Page 15: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Power Consumption and Lifetime
• Power typically supplied by a small battery– 1000-2000 mAH– 1 mAH = 1 milliamp current for 1 hour
• Typically at optimum voltage, current drain rates
– Power = Watts (W) = Amps (A) * Volts (V)– Energy = Joules (J) = W * time
• Lifetime, power consumption varies by application– Processor: 5mA active, 1 mA idle, 5 uA sleeping– Radio: 5 mA listen, 10 mA xmit/receive, ~20mS / packet– Sensors: 1 uA -> 100’s mA, 1 uS -> 1 S / sample
![Page 16: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
• Each mote collects 1 sample of (light,humidity) data every 10 seconds, forwards it
• Each mote can “hear” 10 other motes• Process:
– Wake up, collect samples (~ 1 second)– Listen to radio for messages to forward (~1
second)– Forward data

Programming Sensornets: TinyOS
• Component Based Programming Model
• Suite of software components– Timers, clocks, clock synchronization– Single and multi-hop networking– Power management– Non-volatile storage management
![Page 19: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Programming Philosophy
• Component Based– “Wiring” to components together via
interfaces, configurations
• Split-Phased– Nothing blocks, ever.– Instead, completion events are signaled.
• Highly Concurrent– Single thread of “tasks”, posted and
scheduled FIFO– Events “fired” asynchronously in response
to interrupts.
![Page 20: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
NesC
• C-like programming language with component model support– Compiles into GCC-compatible C
• 3 types of files:– Interfaces
• Set of function prototypes; no implementations or variables– Modules
• Provide (implement) zero or more interfaces• Require zero or more interfaces• May define module variables, scoped to functions in module
– Configurations• Wire (connect) modules according to requires/provides
relationship

Component Example: Leds
module LedsC { provides interface Leds;}implementation{ uint8_t ledsOn;
enum { RED_BIT = 1, GREEN_BIT = 2, YELLOW_BIT = 4 };
…. async command result_t Leds.redOn() { dbg(DBG_LED, "LEDS: Red on.\n"); atomic { TOSH_CLR_RED_LED_PIN(); ledsOn |= RED_BIT; } return SUCCESS; }….}

22
Configuration Example
configuration CntToLedsAndRfm {}implementation { components Main, Counter, IntToLeds, IntToRfm, TimerC;
Main.StdControl -> Counter.StdControl; Main.StdControl -> IntToLeds.StdControl; Main.StdControl -> IntToRfm.StdControl; Main.StdControl -> TimerC.StdControl; Counter.Timer -> TimerC.Timer[unique("Timer")]; IntToLeds <- Counter.IntOutput; Counter.IntOutput -> IntToRfm;}

Major Components
• Timers: Clock, TimerC, LogicalTime
• Networking: Send, GenericComm, AMStandard, lib/Route
• Power Management: HPLPowerManagement
• Storage Management: EEPROM, MatchBox
![Page 25: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Timers
• Clock: Basic abstraction over hardware timers; periodic events, single frequency.
• LogicalTime: Fire an event some number of H:M:S:ms in the future.
• TimerC: Multiplex multiple periodic timers on top of LogicalTime.
![Page 26: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Radio Stack• Interfaces:
– Send• Broadcast, or to a specific ID• split phase
– Receive• asynchronous signal
• Implementations:– AMStandard
• Application specific messages• Id-based dispatch
– GenericComm• AMStandard + Serial IO
– Lib/Route• Mulithop
IntMsg *message = (IntMsg *)data.data;…message->val = value;atomic { message->src = TOS_LOCAL_ADDRESS;}call Send.send(TOS_BCAST_ADDR, sizeof(IntMsg), &data))
event TOS_MsgPtr ReceiveIntMsg.receive(TOS_MsgPtr m) {
IntMsg *message = (IntMsg *)m->data; call IntOutput.output(message->val); return m; }

Geographic Routing• Any-to-any routing via geographic
coordinates– See “GPSR”, MOBICOM 2000, Karp + Kung.
A
B
•Requires coordinate system*
•Requires endpont coordinates
•Hard to route around local minima (“holes”)
*Could be virtual, as in Rao et al “Geographic Routing Without Coordinate Information.” MOBICOM 2003

29
Power Management
• HPLPowerManagement– TinyOS sleeps processor when possible– Observes the radio, sensor, and timer state
• Application managed, for the most part– App. must turn off subsystems when not in use– Helper utility: ServiceScheduler
• Peridically calls the “start” and “stop” methods of an app
– More on power management in TinyDB later– Approach works because:
• single application• no interactivity requirements
![Page 30: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Non-Volatile Storage
• EEPROM– 512K off chip, 32K on chip– Writes at disk speeds, reads at RAM speeds– Interface : random access, read/write 256 byte
pages– Maximum throughput ~10Kbytes / second
• MatchBox Filing System– Provides a Unix-like file I/O interface– Single, flat directory– Only one file being read/written at a time
![Page 31: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

37
Data Model
• Entire sensor network as one single, infinitely-long logical table: sensors
• Columns consist of all the attributes defined in the network
• Typical attributes:– Sensor readings– Meta-data: node id, location, etc.– Internal states: routing tree parent, timestamp, queue
length, etc.• Nodes return NULL for unknown attributes• On server, all attributes are defined in catalog.xml• Discussion: other alternative data models?
![Page 38: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Query Language (TinySQL)
SELECT <aggregates>, <attributes>
[FROM {sensors | <buffer>}][WHERE <predicates>][GROUP BY <exprs>][SAMPLE PERIOD <const> |
ONCE][INTO <buffer>][TRIGGER ACTION <command>]
![Page 39: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Comparison with SQL
• Single table in FROM clause• Only conjunctive comparison predicates
in WHERE and HAVING• No subqueries• No column alias in SELECT clause• Arithmetic expressions limited to
column op constant• Only fundamental difference: SAMPLE
PERIOD clause

42
Event-based Queries
• ON event SELECT …• Run query only when interesting events
happens• Event examples
– Button pushed– Message arrival– Bird enters nest
• Analogous to triggers but events are user-defined
![Page 43: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
Query over Stored Data
• Named buffers in Flash memory• Store query results in buffers• Query over named buffers• Analogous to materialized views• Example:
– CREATE BUFFER name SIZE x (field1 type1, field2 type2, …)
– SELECT a1, a2 FROM sensors SAMPLE PERIOD d INTO name
– SELECT field1, field2, … FROM name SAMPLE PERIOD d
![Page 44: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
Using the Java API
• SensorQueryer– translateQuery() converts TinySQL string into
TinyDBQuery object– Static query optimization
• TinyDBNetwork– sendQuery() injects query into network– abortQuery() stops a running query– addResultListener() adds a ResultListener that is
invoked for every QueryResult received– removeResultListener()
• QueryResult– A complete result tuple, or– A partial aggregate result, call mergeQueryResult()
to combine partial results• Key difference from JDBC: push vs. pull
![Page 45: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
Writing Scripts with TinyDB
• TinyDB’s text interface– java net.tinyos.tinydb.TinyDBMain –
run “select …”– Query results printed out to the
console– All motes get reset each time new

Time Synchronization
• All messages include a 5 byte time stamp indicating system time in ms– Synchronize (e.g. set system time to timestamp) with
• Any message from parent• Any new query message (even if not from parent)
– Punt on multiple queries– Timestamps written just after preamble is xmitted
• All nodes agree that the waking period begins when (system time % epoch dur = 0)– And lasts for WAKING_PERIOD ms
• Adjustment of clock happens by changing duration of sleep cycle, not wake cycle.

51
Extending TinyDB
• Why extending TinyDB?– New sensors attributes– New control/actuation commands– New data processing logic
aggregates– New events
• Analogous to concepts in object-relational databases
![Page 52: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
Adding Attributes
• Types of attributes– Sensor attributes: raw or cooked
sensor readings– Introspective attributes: parent,
voltage, ram usage, etc.– Constant attributes: constant values
that can be statically or dynamically assigned to a mote, e.g., nodeid, location, etc.
![Page 53: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53
Adding Attributes (cont)
• Interfaces provided by Attr component– StdControl: init, start, stop– AttrRegister
• command registerAttr(name, type, len)• event getAttr(name, resultBuf, errorPtr)• event setAttr(name, val)• command getAttrDone(name, resultBuf, error)
– AttrUse• command startAttr(attr)• event startAttrDone(attr)• command getAttrValue(name, resultBuf, errorPtr)• event getAttrDone(name, resultBuf, error)• command setAttrValue(name, val)

54
Adding Attributes (cont)
• Steps to adding attributes to TinyDB1) Create attribute nesC components2) Wire new attribute components to
TinyDBAttr configuration 3) Reprogram TinyDB motes4) Add new attribute entries to catalog.xml
• Constant attributes can be added on the fly through TinyDB GUI
![Page 55: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
55
Adding Aggregates
• Step 1: wire new nesC components
![Page 56: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
56
Adding Aggregates (cont)
• Step 2: add entry to catalog.xml<aggregate>
<name>AVG</name><id>5</id><temporal>false</temporal><readerClass>net.tinyos.tinydb.AverageClass</readerClass>
</aggregate>
• Step 3 (optional): implement reader class in Java– a reader class interprets and finalizes aggregate
state received from the mote network, returns final result as a string for display.

TinyDB Status
• Latest released with TinyOS 1.1 (9/03)– Install the task-tinydb package in TinyOS 1.1
distribution– First release in TinyOS 1.0 (9/02)– Widely used by research groups as well as industry pilot
projects
• Successful deployments in Intel Berkeley Lab and redwood trees at UC Botanical Garden– Largest deployment: ~80 weather station nodes– Network longevity: 4-5 months
![Page 58: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
58
The Redwood Tree Deployment
• Redwood Grove in UC Botanical Garden, Berkeley
• Collect dense sensor readings to monitor climatic variations across– altitudes,– angles,– time,– forest locations, etc.
• Versus sporadic monitoring points with 30lb loggers!
• Current focus: study how dense sensor data affect predictions of conventional tree-growth models

Sensor Network Research
• Very active research area– Can’t summarize it all
• Focus: database-relevant research topics– Some outside of Berkeley– Other topics that are itching to be scratched– But, some bias towards work that we find
compelling

Tiny Aggregation (TAG)
• In-network processing of aggregates– Common data analysis operation
• Aka gather operation or reduction in || programming
– Communication reducing• Operator dependent benefit
– Across nodes during same epoch
• Exploit query semantics to improve efficiency!

67
Basic Aggregation
• In each epoch:– Each node samples local sensors once– Generates partial state record (PSR)
• local readings • readings from children
– Outputs PSR during assigned comm. interval
• At end of epoch, PSR for whole network output at root
• New result on each successive epoch
• Extras:– Predicate-based partitioning via GROUP BY

Aggregation Framework
• As in extensible databases, TinyDB supports any aggregation function conforming to:
Aggn={finit, fmerge, fevaluate}
Finit {a0} <a0>
Fmerge {<a1>,<a2>} <a12>
Fevaluate {<a1>} aggregate value
Example: AverageAVGinit {v} <v,1>
AVGmerge {<S1, C1>, <S2, C2>} < S1 + S2 , C1 + C2>
AVGevaluate{<S, C>} S/C
Partial State Record (PSR)
Restriction: Merge associative, commutative
![Page 74: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)

Taxonomy of Aggregates
• TAG insight: classify aggregates according to various functional properties– Yields a general set of optimizations that can automatically be
applied
Drives an API!

75
Use Multiple Parents
• Use graph structure – Increase delivery probability with no communication
overhead
• For duplicate insensitive aggregates, or• Aggs expressible as sum of parts
– Send (part of) aggregate to all parents• In just one message, via multicast
– Assuming independence, decreases variance

77
Acquisitional Query Processing (ACQP)
• TinyDB acquires AND processes data
– Could generate an infinite number of samples
• An acqusitional query processor controls
– when,
– where,
– and with what frequency data is collected!
• Versus traditional systems where data is provided a priori
Madden, Franklin, Hellerstein, and Hong. The Design of An Acqusitional Query Processor. SIGMOD, 2003.
![Page 78: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
78
ACQP: What’s Different?• How should the query be processed?
– Sampling as a first class operation
• How does the user control acquisition?– Rates or lifetimes– Event-based triggers
• Which nodes have relevant data?– Index-like data structures
• Which samples should be transmitted?– Prioritization, summary, and rate control
![Page 79: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)

82
Heterogeneous Sensor Networks
• Leverage small numbers of high-end nodes to benefit large numbers of inexpensive nodes
• Still must be transparent and ad-hoc• Key to scalability of sensor networks• Interesting heterogeneities
– Energy: battery vs. outlet power– Link bandwidth: Chipcon vs. 802.11x– Computing and storage: ATMega128 vs.
Xscale– Pre-computed results– Sensing nodes vs. QP nodes

83
Computing Heterogeneity with TinyDB
• Separate query processing from sensing– Provide query processing on a small number of nodes– Attract packets to query processors based on “service
value”• Compare the total energy consumption of the
network
• No aggregation• All aggregation• Opportunistic aggregation• HSN proactive
aggregation

Occasionally Connected Sensornets Challenges
• Networking support– Tradeoff between reliability, power
consumption and delay– Data custody transfer: duplicates?– Load shedding– Routing of mobile gateways
• Query processing– Operation placement: in-network vs. on mobile
gateways– Proactive pre-computation and data movement
• Tight interaction between networking and QP

88
Distributed In-network Storage
• Collectively, sensornets have large amounts of in-network storage
• Good for in-network consumption or caching
• Challenges– Distributed indexing for fast query
dissemination– Resilience to node or link failures– Graceful adaptation to data skews– Minimizing index insertion/maintenance cost

Example: DIM• Functionality
– Efficient range query for multidimensional data.
• Approaches– Divide sensor field into
bins.– Locality preserving
mapping from m-d space to geographic locations.
– Use geographic routing such as GPSR.

Statistical Techniques
• Approximations, summaries, and sampling based on statistics
• Applications:– Limited bandwidth and large number
of nodes -> data reduction– Lossiness -> predictive modeling– Uncertainty -> tracking correlations
and changes over time

IDSQ
• Idea: task sensors in order of best improvement to estimate of some value:– Choose leader(s)
• Suppress subordinates• Task subordinates, one at a time
– Until some measure of goodness (error bound) is met
» E.g. “Mahalanobis Distance” -- Accounts for correlations in axes, tends to favor minimizing principal axis

In-Net Regression
• Linear regression : simple way to predict future values, identify outliers
• Regression can be across local or remote values, multiple dimensions, or with high degree polynomials– E.g., node A readings vs. node B’s– Or, location (X,Y), versus temperature
E.g., over many nodes
X vs Y w/ Curve Fit
y = 0.9703x - 0.0067
R2 = 0.947

In-Net Regression (Continued)
• Problem: may require data from all sensors to build model
• Solution: partition sensors into overlapping “kernels” that influence each other– Run regression in each kernel
• Requiring just local communication
– Blend data between kernels– Requires some clever matrix manipulation
• End result: regressed model at every node– Useful in failure detection, missing value

95
Correlated Attributes
• Data in sensor networks is correlated; e.g.,– Temperature and voltage– Temperature and light– Temperature and humidity– Temperature and time of day– etc.
![Page 96: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
96
Exploiting Correlations in Query Processing
• Simple idea: – Given predicate P(A) over expensive attribute A– Replace it with P’ over cheap attribute A’ such
that P’ evaluates to P – Problem: unless A and A’ are perfectly
correlated, P’ ≠ P for all time• So we could incorrectly accept or reject some readings
• Alternative: use correlations to improve selectivity estimates in query optimization– Construct conditional plans that vary predicate
order based on prior observations
![Page 97: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
97
Exploiting Correlations (Cont.)
• Insight: by observing a (cheap and correlated) variable not involved in the query, it may be possible to improve query performance – Improves estimates of selectivities
• Use conditional plans• Example
Light > 100 Lux
Temp < 20° C
Cost = 100Selectivity = .5
Cost = 100Selectivity = .5
Expected Cost = 150
Light > 100 Lux
Temp < 20° C
Cost = 100Selectivity = .5
Cost = 100Selectivity = .5
Expected Cost = 150
Light > 100 Lux
Temp < 20° C
Cost = 100Selectivity = .1
Cost = 100Selectivity = .9
Expected Cost = 110
Light > 100 Lux
Temp < 20° C
Cost = 100Selectivity = .1
Cost = 100Selectivity = .9
Expected Cost = 110

In-Network Join Strategies
• Types of joins: – non-sensor -> sensor– sensor -> sensor
• Optimization questions:– Should the join be pushed down?– If so, where should it be placed?– What if a join table exceeds the
memory available on one node?
![Page 99: Tinydb Tutorial](https://reader038.vdocuments.pub/reader038/viewer/2022103015/5520f9e3497959892f8b5148/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
99
Choosing Where to Place Operators
• Idea : choose a “join node” to run the operator
• Over time, explore other candidate placements– Nodes advertise data rates to their neighbors– Neighbors compute expected cost of running the
join based on these rates– Neighbors advertise costs– Current join node selects a new, lower cost node

101
Adaptivity In Sensor Networks
• Queries are long running• Selectivities change
– E.g. night vs day
• Network load and available energy vary• All suggest that some adaptivity is needed
– Of data rates or granularity of aggregation when optimizing for lifetimes
– Of operator orderings or placements when selectivities change (c.f., conditional plans for correlations)
• As far as we know, this is an open problem!

102
Multiple Queries and Work Sharing
• As sensornets evolve, users will run many queries simultaneously– E.g., traffic monitoring
• Likely that queries will be similar– But have different end points, parameters,
etc
• Would like to share processing, routing as much as possible
• But how? Again, an open problem.

Concluding Remarks
• Sensor networks are an exciting emerging technology, with a wide variety of applications
• Many research challenges in all areas of computer science– Database community included– Some agreement that a declarative interface is right
• TinyDB and other early work are an important first step
• But there’s lots more to be done!
