Since the rise of low-cost airline, air transportation has become one of the most popular trends in travelling over the world. This factor makes the competition in airline industry very intense. From airline market report, it showed that the revenue growth rate in the airline industry has been increasing over 30% in the last few years. For this reason, many airline brands seek for good strategies...
IT services built from cloud applications are subject of several maintenance operations like upgrades, reconfigurations, or redeployments. Monitoring those changes is crucial to detect operator errors, which are a main source of service failures. Another challenge, which exacerbates operator errors is the increasing frequency of changes, e.g. because of continuous deployments. In this paper we propose...
In recent years, NoSQL databases have emerged as an answer to Internet scale datasets. However, these solutions do not support out of the box the necessary backup, restore and disaster recovery capabilities required by many big data scenarios. In this paper we address this gap: we present a novel disaster recovery approach designed for big data NoSQL workloads. This approach can support low recovery...
This paper tests the applicability of an organizational engineering framework to support the development of information systems with internal control, allowing and promoting functions of continuous monitoring and continuous auditing. Thus, this paper summarizes the organizational engineering framework which is intended to be validated. Furthermore, in order to validate it, the architecture of an information...
Studies reveal that 70% of our IT finance is used in maintaining the traditional IT System, while a mere 30% is utilized in enhancing its productivity, efficiency and innovation. This intensifies the need for a computer solution which provides technology designed for high performance, availability, greater reliability, rapid mass scalability, with a reduced cost, that facilitates higher growth and...
Kitchen safety in catering industry has a direct impact on people's health and life safety. In this paper, a kitchen video monitoring system named “sunshine kitchen” is designed and constructed, which is based on cloud computing and video data analysis and provides services for the public, government, operators and other groups of people. One cloud data center is constructed as the supporting and...
In this work, we develop the Business Platform for demand side management in energy sector. This paper introduces the Business Platform and describes the development of the pilot platform and main components. In addition, main applications such as Automated Demand Response (AutoDR) and Monitoring Based Commissioning (MBCx) is presented. One of main components of the platform is the Big Data Management...
Insufficient data visualization in current social media tools is hampering opportunities to make effective meaning and take decisive action from social data. This paper presents the technical architecture of a prototype tool for Social Business Intelligence (SBI) under development. Adopting an Action Design Research approach, the goal of the 'Social Newsroom' is to provide practitioners with user...
The Nujiang is one of the regions where debris flow disasters occur frequently. For a long time, debris flow disasters have caused serious losses of life and property, so strengthening and controling the management of debris flow disasters and predict and alert debris flow disasters has become one of the main tasks for constructing and protecting ecological environment. Based on WebGIS, Internet of...
In the modern retailing industry, many enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are considered legacy software systems that have become too expensive to replace and too costly to re-engineer. Countering the need to maintain and extend the business value of these systems is the need to do so in the simplest, cheapest, and least risky manner available. There are a number of approaches used by software...
Although the popularity of activity-centric process management systems (PrMS) has increased during the last decade, there still exist business processes that cannot be adequately supported by these PrMS. A common characteristic of these processes, which is neglected by current activity-centric PrMS, is their need for object-awareness, i.e., the explicit processing of business data and business objects...
With the development of intelligent lighting technology and green lighting, energy-saving has become an important direction of research and development. A lighting energy consumption monitoring platform has been designed and described in the paper based on Model-View-Controller (MVC) software architecture and Entity framework on .Net platform. The energy consumption of the lighting system before and...
With the improved elasticity of the computing landscape, resources can be added or removed on demand. These new capabilities require a closer look at the link between business processes and IT infrastructure. Therefore, it seems prudent to focus on a conceptual blueprint that will encourage research in developing pragmatic offerings in monitoring, measuring, and analyzing this relationship with the...
In distributed business process support environments, process interference from multiple stakeholders may cause erroneous process outcomes. Existing solutions to detect and correct interference at runtime employ formal verification and the automatic generation of intervention processes at runtime. However, these solutions are limited in their generality: they cannot cope with interference that occurs...
A radio monitor station (RMS) collects the radio signal information of a large range of frequency for the management of radio bandwidth usage. To meet the challenges of large dynamic data, we have developed a domain specific management information system (MIS) for the radio monitor stations. The system design and implementation are described in the paper. An algorithm is provided to work with the...
It is observed that there are processes with multiple sub-processes which are being executed by multiple applications and their monitoring becomes difficult without creating a single end-to-end process. We propose to use transaction logs of these applications along with correlation IDs to identify and connect particular instances of activity execution to a particular transaction execution in the end-to-end...
The thermal power system become more complex as it develops to the direction of large-scale. This brings high efficiency as well as brings much hidden risk. Once the failure appears, less leads to the decrease of operating load, more leads to catastrophic shutdown, and even damage the unit equipment. Therefore, the research on the real-time temperature on-line monitoring system for thermal power units...
Performance optimization of Cloud Computing Environment is about making the components in the cloud to meet the component level requirements and customer expectations. It is aimed at increasing the performance of a cloud service at a minimum cost depending on various constraints. Performance optimization looks at improving the performance of various factors like • Disk performance • Throughput • Response...
General operation of bridge does not have perfect safety monitoring schemes, especially for long span bridge and high-speed railway bridge. Unbalanced bearing force can cause bridge deformation and even serious accidents. In order to provide a comprehensive and intelligent monitoring method, a bridge monitoring system architecture has been presented. This paper analyzes a kind of architecture of monitoring...
Most of the current disaster recovery solutions need to rely on expensive commercial disaster recovery software and hardware. In order to reduce the cost of disaster recovery, a fully featured, affordable disaster recovery solution and an offsite disaster recovery system RDRS (Remote Disaster Recovery System) are putted forward in this paper. Based on existing technologies, such as DFS, database mirroring...
