In this paper we address the issue of connecting abstract task definitions at a mission level with control functionalities for the purpose of performing autonomous robotic missions using multiple heterogenous platforms. The heterogeneity is handled by the use of a common vocabulary which consists of parametrized tasks such as fly-to, take-off, scan-area, or land. Each of the platforms participating...
In this article, the most essential aims on information protection of data processing centers in more flexible way to provide the necessary level of security of the existing environment of development and dissemination of cyber-attacks, which should be easily scaled to support any of its changes in the future, also in this paper Formation of competitive information security of data processing center...

The paper describes a software application running on Android mobile devices, used to help the neuromotor disabled patients to communicate with the clinicians or caretakers. The proposed application also include a telemonitoring (remote monitoring) component used to collect and process few physiological parameters of the patient. The application is part of a more complex communication and monitoring...
Network speeds, wireless communications and rapid graphic processors now allow the collection and rendering of information in ways previously not possible. Together with this, convergence of many sources of disparate events, including tracking over geospatial domains and interaction with sensors, allow for processing of real time data which can be communicated between both real and virtual worlds...
The wireless communication capability of sensors and actuators made them suitable for several automation solutions which involve sensing physical properties and acting upon them. These days, gateway or cloud based sensor/actuator interaction models are widely used. In this model, every sensor/actuator interaction goes through the gateway or via the cloud. In order to realize the true Internet of Things...
This paper explores direct phone-to-phone communication (via WiFi interface) among vehicles to support mobile sensing applications. Direct communication among drivers' phones is important in improving data collection efficiency and sharing participatory sensing information in an inexpensive manner. We design a practical and optimized communication mechanism for direct phone-to-phone data transfer...
We describe the design, implementation and evaluation of a RObust and Distributed MAC (RODMAC) protocol for cognitive radio networks which exploit spectrum white spaces for communication. RODMAC incorporates two novel features. These are a robust design resilient to node failure and a scheme for on-demand channel hopping. Other features include a fully distributed architecture and incorporation of...
In order to support the ongoing Maui Smart Grid demonstration project advanced metering has been deployed at the distribution transformer level in Maui Electric Company's Kihei Circuit on the Island of Maui. This equipment has been custom designed to provide accurately time-stamped Phasor and Power Quality data in real time. Additionally, irradiance sensors have been deployed at a few selected locations...
The recent research and development in the domain of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have opened up tremendous opportunities and applications in many different scenarios. If we take into account the aftermaths of disaster, we certainly need to build up a mechanism to gather the data for the disaster hit area in which there is minimum delay and protocol we use should be energy efficient. This can be...
This paper describes an agent-based software infrastructure for agile industrial production. This production is done on special devices called equiplets. A grid of these equiplets connected by a fast network is capable of producing a variety of different products in parallel. The multi-agent-based underlying systems uses two kinds of agents: an agent representing the product and an agent representing...
This paper presents an approach to swarm split control of a system of multi-agents with limited sensing capabilities. The control scheme utilizes the competition between the inter-agent repulsive and attractive interactions and can split one cohesive swarm into several clustered subswarms along the direction perpendicular to the common heading direction of agents. The cohesion and collision avoidance...
In current version of Trusted Network Connection (TNC) architecture, IF-MAP protocol creates a structured way to support real-time data interchange and dynamic management. However, there is a big challenge that the MAP Server has to process mass metadata published by all kinds of other security components in trusted network. In this paper, we propose a novel design for MAP (Metadata Access Point)...
A managed wireless mesh for infrastructure-level, stable regional mesh network has been studied. NerveNet, which we have been proposing, is a concept of future regional platform network that covers local regions and provides various context-aware services with the shared use of sensors and actuators. The managed wireless mesh developed for materializing NerveNet features auto-configuration of multiple,...
This paper presents an open testbed for studying the utilization of pervasive computing infrastructure in a city center. It comprises of different types of wireless networks, large public displays, middleware resources and monitoring tools. A set of examples demonstrating the applicability of the testbed in evaluating technology pilots and prototyping new services in authentic setting are presented...
