Vehicle theft has become a pervasive problem in metropolitan cities. The aim of our work is to reduce the vehicle and fuel theft with an alert given by commonly used smart phones. The modern vehicles are interconnected with computer systems so that the information can be obtained from vehicular sources and Internet services. This provides space for tracking the vehicle through smart phones. In our...
Cyber security concerns in the automotive industry have been constantly increasing as automobiles are more computerized and networked. Recent successful hacks of modern vehicles demonstrate the big security concerns for automotive systems. However it is still very hard and even impossible to predict what kinds of security issues will happen. In this paper, we present the automotive security concerns...
Smart environments such as smart grid, smart transportation, smart buildings are upon us because of major advances in sensor, communication, cloud and other cyber-physical system technologies. The collective name for interconnected sensors, placed on "things" within fixed cyber-physical infrastructures, is Internet of Things (IoT). IoT enables cities and rural areas to become smarter and...
Complexity in modern vehicles has increased dramatically during the last years due to new features and applications. Modern vehicles are connected to the Internet as well as to other vehicles in close proximity and to the environment for different novel comfort services and safety-related applications. Enabling such services and applications requires wireless interfaces to the vehicle and therefore...
For many cyber-physical systems, there is a strong trend towards open systems, which can be extended during operation by instantly adding functionalities on demand. We discuss this trend in the context of automotive and medical systems. The goal of this paper is to elaborate the research challenges of new platforms for such open systems. A main problem is that such CPS apps shall be able to access...
New connected infotainment features and advanced driver assistance systems pose considerable challenges for the software architectures of future vehicles. As a result of the growing complexity, there are emerging needs from both suppliers and integrators for improved reuse and reconfiguration at design time. Furthermore, there is also increasing pressure from customers for an improved driving experience...
One of the main recent research trends of the Italian Interuniversity Research Center on Integrated Systems for Marine Environment (ISME) is the use of marine cooperative teams of autonomous robots within the fields of security, prevention and management of emergencies at sea. Such fields are of worldwide interest for obvious reasons, but they have recently gained relevance in the current historical...
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) are the largest real life application of ad-hoc networks where nodes are represented via fast moving vehicles. This paper introduces the future emerging technology, i.e., Vehicular Cloud Networking (VCN) where vehicles and adjacent infrastructure merge with traditional internet clouds to offer different applications ranging from low sized applications to very complex...
Over the last two decades, traffic congestion has become a "worldwide" phenomenon as a result of increased motor vehicles and population growth. Emerging wireless technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) networks, have a significant impact on improving the efficiency of the road traffic management system in Alexandria. In this paper, we propose an intelligent road-traffic-management...
VANETs are a kind of adhoc wireless network, which is characterised as restricted topology patterns, node mobility and dynamic in nature. Vehicles communicate with each other via Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V-to-V), Vehicle to roadside unit (RSU) and RSU to Base-Station. Every vehicle is equiped with on board unit (OBU) that helps to communicate with RSU and Base-Station. Routing is very important in communication...
Vehicular ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) are predominantly gaining higher attention in the recent times both in the academic and industrial field. The vehicular communications that intend to take place in the wireless medium support several safety applications of the vehicle passengers. The open communication environment of VANET enables the vehicle drivers to access the ubiquitous services which have become...
Now-a-days the vehicle accident rate has been increasing as compared to previous decade. The accident rate has increased by 54%. This system minimizes the action time after an accident. This paper deals with such system to detect possible collision and prevent it. The paper presents an efficient implementation of security system for the moving vehicles using SMS alert system. The system uses microcontroller...
Nowadays accidents and vehicle theft cases of two-wheelers are increasing at an alarming rate. In present systems, the speed is monitored by using cameras, speed governors etc. These systems have geographical, visibility and applicability restrictions. These systems can't be used completely for two-wheeler because it will affect the stability of the vehicle and cause accidents. Here we are proposing...
Vehicular Networks (VANET) are the largest real life application of ad-hoc networks where nodes are represented via fast moving vehicles. As VANET is characterised with several unique features such as the high mobility, random distribution and short connection times, etc. establishing security becomes very challenging, and identifying security threats and possible attacks become very critical. Thus,...
This paper introduces and evaluates a Traffic Sign Management Architecture (TSMA), which represents a paradigm shift for the deployment of traffic sign infrastructure in the context of Intelligent Transport Systems, Vehicular Networks and Smart Cities. The proposal addresses limitations of the current traffic control model by enabling remote updates of traffic signs and displaying them on the vehicular...
While aerospace launch vehicles are vulnerable to security attacks, post-liftoff attacks have the most potential for destruction including loss of the vehicle or loss of life. This paper demonstrates an approach for security testing an aerospace launch system post-liftoff. This approach is based on building a security test suite from a behavioral model, an attack type and a mitigation model. Our behavioral...
For information dissemination in highly dynamic vehicular networks, two technological approaches can be considered: Cellular communication standards are continually evolving to incorporate the requirements of vehicular applications. An alternative is ad-hoc communication which is restricted to direct, short range communication between vehicles/road-side units. Currently, no single technology can fulfill...
The freight tracking system provides security to the freights. It is a more common occurrence of various theft activities in goods train. The GPS and GSM tracking systems have been introduced to avoid such undesirable situations. This paper is also provided with the concept of One Time Password (OTP) system and fingerprint system for the purpose of secured transportation. The full fledged security...
Along with the arrival of the Internet era, all walks of life are beginning to promote the wisdom of the process. As the concept of "smarter planet" and "wisdom city" is put forward, the school as the frontier of knowledge and information service, as a new talent incubator should seize the opportunity and apply the advanced information technology to promote the construction of...
The nature of Information Technology is that there are always new ideas being cultivated and implemented. The Internet of Things (IoT) does not fall outside of this dynamic. A network of wireless “things” that provide data for greater value and service, the Internet of Things seeks to connect the world making all things “smart”. With objects constantly connected, sending and receiving data, there...
