Automotive networks based on the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus (ISO 11898) family of protocols have been shown to be vulnerable to exploits by hackers who are outside the vehicle. These networks can be compromised in a manner which could jeopardize vehicle occupants. One well-publicized exploit led to a costly automotive recall that affected more than a million vehicles. Other exploits can allow...
The authors have observed some directions of development underground information technologies implemented in Granch Ltd. These directions related to providing safety of operations in mining. The results of experiments have been shown.
The condition of the pilot eyes is one of the important safety factors for the mission critical aviation business. There are so many eye diseases that can effect pilot normal working namely cataract, glaucoma, crossed eyes etc. In this paper we propose advanced analysis of eye diseases for the safety of the pilot operations. Our analysis involves using different semantic techniques in order to conclude...
Command and Control (C2) Data Link performance is essential for maintaining safe command and control of the Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS). The tolerance of the automatic flight guidance and control system (AFGCS) to the degradation in C2 Data Link performance depends on the phase of flight and the AFGCS mode(s) of operation. This paper will discuss the tolerance and recommend limits for the C2 Data...
NASA's Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) Traffic Management (UTM) project aims at enabling near-term, safe operations of small UAS vehicles in uncontrolled airspace, i.e., Class G airspace. A far-term goal of UTM research and development is to accommodate the expected rise in small UAS traffic density throughout the National Airspace System (NAS) at low altitudes for beyond visual line-of-sight operations...
We live in an ever-changing environment where there is a vital need for persistent monitoring of human activities; whether it is for security, safety, economic or environmental purposes. Our oceans are no exception and may even be the region of our globe that is most at risk. Unbeknownst to many, there is limited visibility and awareness of maritime activity beyond 40-50 nautical miles from our coastline...
Innovative air traffic concepts of operation are now possible that enable novel allocations of authority and responsibility between air and ground, and between humans and automation. This paper proposes a systematic approach for the synthesis of allocations of authority and responsibility early in the design of a concept of operations to achieve its performance and safety goals. The methodology models...
Privacy, especially source location privacy in many Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) applications plays an important role in the effectiveness of these applications. Exposure of source location information in these applications may put the monitored entities or subjects in danger. Many solutions are available based on various techniques, including random walk. Most existing random walk based source...
In this paper, the results of a combined numerical-experimental analysis on a system, part of a wireless sensor network, composed by a resonant electromagnetic energy harvester, a suitable power electronic interface and a sensor node are presented and discussed. Such a system is to be used onboard for real-time diagnostics and monitoring in railway vehicles for goods transportation.
The food sector is challenged to provide safe and qualitative food to consumers at affordable price and to feed appropriately increasing population using natural resources, like soil and water, in a sustainable way. Consumers awareness about food origin, nutritional and wellness properties, attention to processed meals ingredients, due to health issues, and requests of new customized portions formats...
One of the most important areas of the water utilities is the water quality management. This area is responsible of guaranteeing safety in the water supply to the citizens. The strategy to guarantee the safety is based on two principal elements: disinfection and monitoring. Disinfection techniques, such as chlorination, allow to prevent the growing of microorganisms present in the water. Moreover,...
The integration of wearable and integrated sensing technologies with cloud computing has the potential to promote the development of large-scale monitoring applications and to provide public safety as a service to end-users. In this paper, we proposed a system that relies on the integration of heterogeneous sensor networks and cloud computing to build distributed public safety databases and to provide...
Monitoring data in coal mine is essentially data stream. With the change of environment, coal mine monitoring data stream implied concept drifts. Coal mine safety evaluation can be seen as concept drifting data stream classification. The method proposed in this paper is based on random decision tree model, and it uses Hoeffding Bounds inequality and information entropy instead of random selection...
ETCS is an European signalling, control and automatic train protection system. Even with the most advanced quality assurance techniques, correctness of ETCS is hard to be ensured within the development phases. In this paper, we use runtime verification to provide on-going protection during the operational phase. To define a suitable monitoring specification language, we propose a graphic formalism...
This paper firstly designs a set of tunnel safety pre-warning scheme. According to the detection convergence value and sedimentation value of tunnel section, we judge the safety of the tunnel. Tunnel safety pre-warning scheme can be divided into three broad categories: security, warning and risk. Then, a visualized system for monitoring tunnel's risk is followed with the tunnel safety pre-warning...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a considerable risk factor of driving. The pain of cardiac events distracts driver's concentration, and ischemia brought by the CVD induces incapacity of driving. In this study, a prototype of the automated safety vehicle stop system has been developed. The system collects bio-signals through the steer-sensor and recognizes the driver's posture by a camera, and detects...
It is in the nature of the public safety agencies to encounter major crisis events, including the security incidents which result from terrorist activities. Major security incidents require cross-border cooperation with the national security authorities and other public safety agencies. The purpose of the project REDIRNET is therefore to accelerate the exchange of information through a concept of...
With number of ships increasing, the scale of ships being increasingly larger and anchorage ground being increasingly crowd, the accidents of dragging anchor occur more frequently in recent years. In order to improve the security of mooring ship and realize the intelligent monitoring of mooring ship, this paper reviewed the application of all kinds of navigation instruments used in the field of mooring...
With the increasing volume of container transport, the international community pay more and more attention to container security. This paper investigates the new concept, key function and key technologies available of the secure and smart container. Especially on the base of application and survey, this paper carries on the research of standard system. Under the current standard system frame, it works...
In this paper we have provided public Smart Assistance in Public Transport System. The project is to be implemented for public bus (for ex: PMTs in Pune). It has the entire smart assistance system required for public security and safety. The smart system includes safety for women as well. It has accident detection and monitoring facility. It also has user friendly application for user to track bus...
