At the base of the system stays the WiSensors, a low power 802.11 Wi-Fi device powered by an RN-131C chip to which various sensors and actuators can be connected. Depending on the application...
The world is adopting machine-type communication, wherein sensors and actuators blend seamlessly with the environment around us, bringing a new ubiquitous computing and communication era — a shift that is, to some extent, illustrated by the explosive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT). Capillary Networks play an important role in the growth of IoT, enabling wireless sensor networks to connect...
Over the last decade, the level of critical infrastructure technology has been steadily transforming in order to keep pace with the growing demand for the services offered. The implementation of the smart grid, which relies on a complex and intelligent level of interconnectivity, is one example of how vital amenity provision is being refined. However, with this change, the risk of threats from the...
This paper proposes a group-based emergency guiding system for mobile users using smartphones, called Go FAST, which can model the spatiotemporal mobility of indoor people. A dedicated path can be determined to provide the shortest evacuation time for each group of nearby people. The Go FAST system considers the corridor capacities and lengths, exit capacities, concurrent motion, distribution of indoor...
Recently, various types of wireless sensor network systems have been developed to realize daily care for elderly people living alone. Furthermore, visualization methods of life logs have been presented. However, it is important to integrate different types of data measured by each sensor node to estimate human states and behaviors. Therefore, we have proposed the concept of informationally structured...
Use of wireless technology is applicable in most of area in information and communication technology (ICT). Rapid growth of user and devices make provider have difficulties to handle large data traffic in current system. Provider has to setup large size data center (server) to accommodate increasing number of user and data. Stability and availability of data center need to be on all the time, thus...
With the popularity of smart phones and the rapid development of wireless communication technologies, people tend to determine their indoor location in the complex indoor environment such as a library, exhibition hall and shopping malls using location-based services. However, in many scenarios, two-dimensional positioning system has been unable to meet the needs. In this paper, we research on the...
Wireless sensors are used in most of the in real time applications for collecting physical information. The impossible measurements in typical ways have currently become attainable using the wireless technology. In this technology, the measurement of air quality is one of the difficult areas for the researchers. The main source of atmosphere pollution happens due to vehicles. The high inflow of vehicles...
As the bandwidth-intensive and performance-sensitive application portfolio broadens, so does the interest in data center networks (DCNs) by network research community. Most DCNs deployed today are wired DCNs in which copper and optical fiber cables are used for communication. Despite recent advances in DCN design, there are two inevitable problems facing wired DCNs; hotspots and cabling complexity...
Power control is the mechanism used in industries, large organization as well as in small sectors like home automation for the reduction of transmitting output powering the communication system to achieve good performance of the system. The power management is a technical mechanism which is used in the network devices to prevent the interference between different wireless networks and reduce the used...
This paper describes the design, implementation, and deployment of wireless sensor network for precision agriculture. A wireless sensor network was built to use for precision agriculture in which the farmers can monitor and control the agricultural and environmental parameters such as air temperature, air humidity, light, soil moisture, pH, etc. The collected data is stored and transmitted wirelessly...
The article presents the Argus project. The aim of the project is the development of an automatic photography system. Argus is built on a special hardware system (central server, minicomputers with NFC(Near Field Communication) card readers and cameras) and it is controlled by a specific software system. The software system contains a server, a web application and a desktop application, which is running...
The development of wireless patient monitoring system has been quite intensive in the past decade. Patients at a critical status can greatly benefit from technologies that continuously monitor their vital status. We have designed and developed a real-time patient monitoring system including biological sensors, integrated networking, electronic patient records, and web technology to allow remote monitoring...
The idea of the Internet of Things, which emerged in recent years, became one of the main fields of interest in industrial and academic research. The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) is one of the technologies aspiring to a standard in the IoT world. CoAP was designed to provide a low-overhead, machine-to-machine communication for constrained devices in a way similar to HTTP. In this paper...
This paper proposes one way of integration of ZigBee protocol in a home automation system. Also, this paper has novel approach for adding ZigBee "of-the-shelf" devices from different manufacturers in the system. The concept define a device as a set of services witch that device provides. Validation and implementation of these concepts are demonstrated in this paper.
