1. A computer-implemented method for network management, the method comprising:
- broadcasting, from a first sensored wireless transceiver, an availability to accept data from other sensored wireless transceivers;
receiving, from one or more other sensored wireless transceivers, requests to subscribe to provide sensor data to the first sensored wireless transceiver;
subsequently receiving data that indicates sensor values from the one or more other sensored wireless transceivers;
aggregating the data that indicates sensor values;
transmitting the aggregated data to a central service through the Internet;
determining at the first sensored wireless transceiver, a degree of proximity of each of the one or more other sensored wireless transceiver to the first sensored wireless transceiver; and
determining whether to aggregate data from each of the one or more other sensored wireless transceivers based on a determined level of proximity between the transceivers,wherein the first sensored wireless transceiver and the one or more other sensored wireless transceivers each store and collect data gathered from other sensored wireless transmitters with which they can communicate, andwherein the first sensored wireless transceiver queries an internal hashed database value to identify sensor readings that are response to the request.

6. One or more devices having tangible, non-transient machine-readable media having stored thereon, instructions that when executed perform operations comprising:
-
broadcasting, from a first sensored wireless transceiver, an availability to accept data from other sensored wireless transceivers; receiving, from one or more other sensored wireless transceivers, requests to subscribe to provide sensor data to the first sensored wireless transceiver; subsequently receiving data that indicates sensor values from the one or more other sensored wireless transceivers; aggregating the data that indicates sensor values; transmitting the aggregated data to a central service through the Internet; determining at the first sensored wireless transceiver, a degree of proximity of each of the one or more other sensored wireless transceiver to the first sensored wireless transceiver; and determining whether to aggregate data from each of the one or more other sensored wireless transceivers based on a determined level of proximity between the transceivers, wherein the first sensored wireless transceiver queries an internal hashed database value to identify sensor readings that are response to the request. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
