The attack of ‘Stuxnet’ computer warm on the Iranian nuclear program highlighted the need of cybersecurity for critical infrastructure and embedded systems. The evolution of embedded systems to Internet-of-Things (IoT), where every device from a light-bulb to a medical implant device will be connected over internet. This connected world scenario requires secure communication channels to ensure information-security...
New born infant kidnapping is a prevailing and horrific crime in governmental run hospitals in major cities and towns around Pakistan. In order to tackle this problem a novel idea of using Wireless Sensors Network (WSN) supported by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is proposed. The working model recommends a Trigger (passive PIRs) based video motes sensors installed at various concealed...
The wave adoption of wireless over wire-line is a global phenomenon and the Oil & Gas industry is no exception. This paper presents a multi-tiered secure hardened Wireless Remote Terminal Unit (WRTU) for SCADA systems. The WRTU is based on ARM Coter-M4 Processor supported by GSM & Satellite modems, GPS, WiFi and Ethernet. WRTU can be interfaced to an array of standard industrial sensors, and...
The demand for automotive telematics systems is growing every year. Telematics systems are used for a variety of applications such as vehicle tracking, navigation, driving habits monitoring and e-tolling. Telematics systems transmit vehicle information over a GSM/GPRS network. The transmission over a GSM/GPRS network can be intercepted and the vehicle information can be compromised easily. This paper...
Fire Control Systems (FCSs) plays a critical role in the battle effectiveness of a Main Battle Tank (MBT) whether it is high first-round-hit-probability, ballistic solution computation for projectile trajectory, or moving target engagement. FCS comprises of Fire Control Computer (FCC), sensors, and gun controller. Fire control computer computes the elevation and azimuth (pitch and yaw axis) angles,...
Purpose Posterior only approaches for spinal deformity are increasingly popular and posterior spinal release is utilized to gain flexibility for correctional maneuvers. Prior biomechanical data support the use of facetectomy and rib head resection for gaining flexibility in the sagittal and coronal planes but to date there has been no quantification of stiffness reduction provided by these techniques...
