Deploying a number of (video) cameras is a\ncommon surveillance approach. Given the never-ending power offered by vehicles\nto metropolises, exploiting vehicle traffic to design camera placement\nstrategies could potentially facilitate security surveillance. This article\nconstitutes the first effort toward building the linkage between vehicle\ntraffic and security surveillance, which is a critical problem for smart\ncities. We expect our study could influence the decision making of surveillance\ncamera placement, and foster more research of principled ways of security\nsurveillance beneficial to our physical-world life.
