Size and complexity of contemporary High Performance Computing (HPC) systems increases permanently. While the reliability of a single component and compute node is high, the huge amount of components comprising these systems results in the fact that defects happen regularly. This drives the need to manage failure situations. Common issues are component failures or node soft lock-ups that typically...
Runtime hardware Trojan detection techniques are required in third party IP based SoCs as a last line of defense. Traditional techniques rely on golden data model or exotic signal processing techniques such as utilizing Choas theory or machine learning. Due to cumbersome implementation of such techniques, it is highly impractical to embed them on the hardware, which is a requirement in some mission...
State Islamic University of Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta as rapid growing university towards world-class university placed in The edge of Jakarta has a data center runs by its unit of organization called Pustipanda (The Center of Information Technology and Database). The team had made observations during the last one year and found that these data center lately had an incident occurred where its hardware...
With an increase in the number of warehouses, cold storage units and factories in today's industrialized and automated world, the need for monitoring various attributes in such factories has become a thing of great necessity. With advances in technology, and in particular, the various sensors to measure different parameters such as temperature, gases, humidity etc. have become more viable and affordable...
China is a large agricultural country with the largest population in the world. This creates a high demand for food, which is prompting the study of high quality and high-yielding crops. China's current agricultural production is sufficient to feed the nation; however, compared with developed countries agricultural farming is still lagging behind, mainly due to the fact that the system of growing...
Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) take advantage of the effect of process variation on hardware to obtain their unclonability. Traditional PUF design only focuses on the analog signals of circuits. An arbiter PUF, for example, generates responses by racing delay signals. Implementations of such PUFs usually employ large area and power consumption while providing very low throughput. To address...
The introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cities is widely viewed as a great opportunity that stimulated the modern view of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Up to this point, WSNs were application-driven systems with well defined challenges and requirements. The idea of IoT and smart cities increased the amount of available data and magnified the hardware and software challenges of sensor...
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can consume a large percentage of the energy used in a typical building. Intelligent building automation systems (BAS) are widely deployed to enable more efficient HVAC utilization, thus reducing the energy consumed. Enhanced data requires distributed sensing. We propose an instrumentation system for a low-cost, over-the-top efficiency monitor...
After more than 20 years of development, Internet of things has a IoT of applications in the actual scene, which greatly facilitates people's work and life. As people paying more and more attention to environmental quality, the application of Internet of Things in indoor environment monitoring and control has become an important branch. In this paper we present a set of lightweight intelligent solutions...
Continuously increasing application demands on both High Performance Computing (HPC) and Embedded Systems (ES) are driving the IC manufacturing industry on an everlasting scaling of devices in silicon. Nevertheless, integration and miniaturization of transistors comes with an important and non-negligible trade-off: time-zero and time-dependent performance variability. Increasing guard-bands to battle...
It is a consensus among the researchers, although not proven, that it is close to impossible to guarantee completely secure hardware design. Therefore, it is desired to have run-time hardware Trojan detection techniques. This paper is toward developing a framework of how to achieve run-time hardware Trojan detection units. Although it is difficult to predict the stage of circuit design at which hardware...
The ever increasing demand on society can lead to detrimental human health consequences, if not properly managed. Although society is becoming more health conscious, mental health and wellness is still lacking in adequate resources, particularly with the student population. Wireless sensor technologies can alleviate the problem by providing an additional resource in the monitoring and self-assessment...
This paper develops a new lightweight secure sensing technique using hardware isolation. We focus on protecting the sensor from unauthorized accesses, which can be issued by attackers attempting to compromise the security and privacy of the sensed data. We satisfy the security requirements by employing the hardware isolation feature provided by the secure processor of the target sensor system. In...
Arowana is a kind of fish which requires routine and patience maintenance techniques, particularly in terms of feeding and conditioning the water in aquarium which is quite specific. Lack of proper maintenance may affect the physical growth of arowana. It has been built a system to monitor and maintain the arowana, called Automatic Arowana Raiser (AURORA). So that the fishes can be monitored and the...
In recent days, our way of living has been changed more, lead to health consciousness, so health monitoring system is most important part of our life. In this proposed method, an RTOS based Wireless Sensor Network architecture has been developed for the health monitoring. One node acts as central and the others will be a slaves which are used for data acquisition. Data acquisition node uses the Peripheral...
The constant growth of the digital enterprise has led to a continuous growth of data sources and also data that feeds into a potential BigData ecosystem. With the advent of Internet of Things (IoT), more and more devices get connected, each being a potential data source. One such potential source of constant data feed are sensor devices. Sensors that monitor a wide variety of environmental data such...
As power becomes one of the most important re-sources to provision while building modern HPC systems and applications, it becomes crucial to obtain deeper insights into applications' power and thermal characteristics. There exists aneed to correlate application context with processor-level andsystem-level power and thermal measurements. Existing profilingtools to monitor power and thermal measurements...
To solve problems that existed in wired water monitoring system, such as high cost and restricted monitoring water range, a kind of Lijiang River water environment monitoring system is designed based on WSN. In order to ensure long survival time of the sensor node and a high performance of routing node, MSP430 and ARM32F107 processor are employed respectively. After preprocessing data, MU709 3G module...
Resilience is an important challenge for extreme-scale supercomputers. Failures in current supercomputers are assumed to be uniformly distributed in time. However, recent studies show that failures in high-performance computing systems are partially correlated in time, generating periods of higher failure density. The detection of those periods is important in order to adjust the system to new conditions...
Health monitoring involves sensing, reporting, and sometimes adjusting the states of objects or nodes remotely. This paper describes the design and implementation of a real-time distributed hardware health monitoring framework, assuming a homogeneous set of hardware nodes. The framework consists of sensor components operating at the nodes, and visualization components operating at monitoring stations...
