Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) have vital importance because of their applications in many different areas. Attacks on these CPSs can cause considerable impact on public safety in addition to economic losses. Although studies on increasing the protection and reliability of CPSs against random malfunction are available, protection of CPSs against malignant attacks is needed. In particular, wireless...
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...
This paper presents the design and implementation of a wireless monitoring system for building smart room architectures in home environments. The proposed system consists of wireless sensor nodes and actuator nodes which are organized into a monitoring network by ZigBee protocols. A base station and some general wireless nodes have been developed to form a prototype system. Various sensor and actuator...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for navigating an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) through coordinate-free Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks. The navigation algorithm proceeds in two phases. In the first phase, for each node in the sensor network we compute a hop-level distance from the target node, which indicates the number of communication hops between the node and any destination nodes...
The Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSAN's), defines collaborative operations between the sensors and the actuators, enabling distributed sensing of a physical phenomenon. In this paper, an integrated testbed consisted of wireless sensor network, server station and robot system is proposed. Our main contribution is in the design and development of the server and actuator tier software modules...
This paper shows the general concept and the primary implementation of a pervasive intelligent system for rehabilitation. The scope of this work is to highlight the possibility to join two important research fields, i.e. rehabilitation and ambient assisted living, to enhance the capabilities and independence of disable and aged people. The described system was composed of a ZigBee network, with coordinator,...
