Radio Frequency Identification (or RFID) tags has found a wide range of applications in the modern world with a promising future. Tourism directly affects a country's income. In this paper we have proposed a system which uses RFID tags for guidance of tourists. In the proposed system RFID tags are used to guide and to inform the tourists about the given location and surrounding. Tourists usually prefer...
Obesity and overweight has been a great cause of death in 21st Century. In era of innovation in technology, people are becoming less active to complete their daily work and more use of Automation techniques are used in different scenarios. With the help of technology we try to cope up with obesity problem and make people healthier. We use WBAN and cloud computing to address this problem. It uses small...
Healthy environment is imperative to a healthy and happy community. With the age old system of hiring people to regularly check and empty filled dustbins, the process has been prone to human error and neglect. Additionally, due to different frequency of usage of dustbins in different areas, routine checks which are based on time crevices is inefficient because a dustbin might get filled early and...
RFID applications are used in the Internet of Things (IoTs) which uses multiple readers to read the IDs of multiple tags and form the RFID network. In such a network, unguarded reader deployment may generate over-crowded readers, cause interferences. The deployment is crucial for RFID system performance Radio Frequency Identification (or RFID) tags have seen its wide range of applications in the recent...
Traffic congestion is one of the biggest concerns that almost everyone faces in their daily lives. We are not aware about the traffic conditions and scenarios of a particular area we wish to travel due to which we often spend a lot of time, waiting for the congestion to finish, leading to massive wastage of time and energy. The paper proposes a model for controlling the traffic congestion by accurate...
Radio Frequency Identification (or RFID) tags have seen its wide range of applications in the recent years and has a very promising future. In the present scenario, Pervasive computing plays an important role in our daily lives and has a vast range of applications in many fields. In this paper we have proposed a system which uses RFID tags for guidance of tourists. The system uses RFID tags to guide...
Technological advancements has always bestowed a nation with great innovations and solutions to the unnoticed issues. A country is always known for its rich art, culture, heritage and monuments, but as the world progresses to a new era of technology, these monuments are constantly turned a blind eye upon. As the concept of Smart cities have began to be implemented, the ancient monuments needs to be...
Wireless Sensor Network has been one of the most diversified and widely used area and has a vast range of has applications in almost every field. Wireless Sensor Network is a domain with a large number of motes that collects data from the surrounding and after processing, it transfers the data to the sink node through intermediate sensor node after which it is finally transmitted to the base station...
Wireless Sensor Network is one of the most advanced and emerging technologies of the upcoming world and is being used in GPS Tracking, medical fields, Defence Departments, homeland security etc. The topology of WSN works in a triangular pattern. The sensor nodes collects the information from the environment, and sends it to the sink node, the sink node further transfer the information to base station...
With the development in Wireless Sensor Network, the emergingtechnologies are conquering the domain. One type of technology is the Wireless Underground Sensor Networks (WUSNs). WUSN mainly focuses on the transmission of data using sensor node at the subsurface region of the soil. The technology mainly used for monitoring environment conditions without wireless communication capability. In this technology...

The growing number of vehicles on the roads worldwide, lead to increase in the number of road traffic accidents. These are recognized as a major public safety problem. In this context, connected vehicles are considered as the key enabling technology to improve road safety and the emergence of next generation cooperative intelligent transport systems (ITS). In ITS, network services and applications...
Nowadays, researchers have performed extensive experiments to study the feasibility and Connectivity of vehicle access. We investigate connectivity in the ad hoc network formed between vehicles that move on a typical highway. We use the common model in vehicular traffic theory. Since a vehicle spends a large portion of the connection time in this poor link quality area, "No GPS Zone" the...
One can recognize today's world as a place full of threats. Every field is vulnerable to threat, be it banking, education, government or medical. In health sector Wearable Computing and Smart Wearable Devices are gaining popularity. With this emerging success of these devices, the risk of threat is also increasing rapidly. People who are disabled, aged or children can get update about their health...
In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) the network services and applications (e.g., safety messages) will require an exchange of vehicle and event location information. Effective lane changing and routing in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks is a challenging task. This paper aims to propose a solution to ensure the safety of drivers while changing lanes on the highways. Efficient and faster routing protocols...
As video gives a clear and quick understanding about any situation, it is considered to be the most reliable and recommended media for information dissemination. Real time video exchange in Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) can help in reducing the on road accidents and provide better road security by means of video surveillance. To execute this concept in VANET, the integrated model of VANET — Cloud...
Video is the most recommended media for information dissemination in VANETs (Vehicular Adhoc Networks) as it gives clear and quick understanding of information to the drivers. The real time and on-demand video helps vehicles on road in various possible ways. An improper provider not only leads to frequent interruptions of communications, but the transmission of the invalid video fragments would also...
In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) the network services and applications (e.g., safety messages, vehicle navigation data) require an exchange of vehicle and event location information. VANET is an important research field of wireless sensor networks providing different applications such as real time traffic information for on road vehicles and related authorities. The integrated model of VANET...
