Hosting multiple applications in a shared infrastructure of wireless sensor networks is a trend nowadays, and sharing sensory data for answering concurrent applications is a promising and energy-efficient strategy. To address this challenge, this paper proposes an energy-efficient query optimization mechanism for supporting multiple concurrent applications leveraging our two-tier cooperative caching mechanism. Specifically, query requests for concurrent applications are represented as binary strings, which are reduced to a single one for avoiding the reprocessing of shared subquery requests. This reduced query request is answered through our cooperative caching mechanism, where sensory data, which are highly possible to be reused for answering forthcoming query requests, are cached at the sink node (SN). Besides, the gray model GM(1, 1) is adopted for forecasting sensory data units which may be interested mostly by forthcoming query requests. These units of sensory data may be prefetched from the network and cached at the SN. Experimental evaluation shows that this approach can reduce the energy consumption significantly, and improve the network capacity to an extent, especially when the number of concurrent query requests is relatively large
