Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSANs) have emerged as a variation of wireless sensor networks. WSANs have great potential for improving many current applications, such as environmental monitoring/surveillance, life science and rescue/support operations. In previous work, we proposed a fuzzy-based WSAN testbed that based on data provided by sensors and actuators select an appropriate actuator...
Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) is becoming an important part of our technological reality as an autonomous systems, due to the advances of new technologies, such as 5G, Internet of Things (IoT) and ArtificialIntelligence (AI). One of the main challenges in autonomous systems is power management. Self-healing is a key feature of WSAN, which improves network connectivity and lifetime, by...
A group of wireless devices with the ability to sense physical events (sensors) or/and to perform relatively complicated actions (actors), is referred to as Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSAN). In this work, we propose and implement two Fuzzy Based Actor Selection Systems (FBASS): FBASS1 and FBASS2 for actor selection in WSANs. The systems decide whether the actor will be selected for the required...
With the advancement of new technologies, such as 5G and Internet of Things (IoT), there is an increasing interests in heterogeneous and autonomous Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems. Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSAN), as an emerging autonomous ICT system, will soon be an important part of our technological reality. One of the main challenges in autonomous systems is power...
Big Data Stream processing is among the most important computing trends nowadays. The growing interest on Big Data Stream processing comes from the need of many Internet-based applications that generate huge data streams, whose processing can serve to extract useful analytics and inform for decision making systems. For instance, an IoT-based monitoring systems for a supply-chain, can provide real...
In Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks, sensors and actors collaborate to get the information about the physical environment and perform appropriate actions. In order to provide effective sensing and acting, a distributed local coordination mechanism is necessary among sensors and actors. In this work, we implement and compare two Fuzzy-Based Systems (FBS1 and FBS2) for actor selection problem. These...
In Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSANs), sensors and actors collaborate together to get the information about the physical environment and perform appropriate actions. In order to provide effective sensing and acting, a distributed local coordination mechanism is necessary among sensors and actors. In this work, we consider the actor node selection problem and we propose a fuzzy-based system...
A group of wireless devices with the ability to sense physical events (sensors) or/and to perform relatively complicated actions (actors), is referred to as Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSAN). In WSANs, sensors gather information about the physical events, while actors perform appropriate actions upon the environment, based on the sensed data shared by sensors. In order to provide effective...
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are autonomous distributed networks, where mobile nodes communicate with each other using wireless links. Since the communication is done by wireless links, it is difficult to grasp the network situation. It becomes even more difficult when the number of nodes is increased. In this paper, we propose a visualization system for MANETs. The system can mainly visualize...
Online web-based application that heavily require user interaction, either among users or among users and the application, generate huge amounts of data. Recording such user interaction data, usually in the form of log data files, could be very useful for different purposes such as user modelling, user activity analysis, data analytics, security, monitoring, etc. However, such data is not ready to...
In this paper, we present the experimental results and evaluation of the Smart Box stimulation device for medical applications using a P2P system which is based on JXTA-Overlay. The Smart Box is integrated with our P2P system as a useful tool for monitoring and controlling patients activities. We found by experimental results that by Smart Box we can check the patient's situation. We carried out experiments...
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of WSNs for single and multi mobile events using Two Ray Ground radio model and AODV protocol. We consider good put and routing efficiency metrics to evalute the performance of WSN. The simulation results have shown that for single mobile event, the good put is better than multi mobile events when the number of sensor nodes is higher. In case of boids model,...
In this paper, we present the experimental results and evaluation of the Smart Box stimulation device for e-learning and medical applications in a P2P system which is based on JXTA-Overlay. The Smart Box is integrated with our P2P system as a useful tool for monitoring and controlling learners or patients activities. We found by experimental results that by Smart Box we can increase the learner's...
