This demo showcases some of the capabilities foreseen for the security infrastructure designed by the H2020 SHIELD project. SHIELD exploits NFV for adaptive monitoring of an IT infrastructure and for feeding the data to an analytics engine to detect attacks in real time. An intelligent reaction system is then activated to reconfigure the SDN/NFV infrastructure so that the attacks are thwarted. The...
In recent years the use of wireless ad hoc networks has seen an increase of applications. A big part of the research has focused on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MAnETs), due to its implementations in vehicular networks, battlefield communications, among others. These peer-to-peer networks usually test novel communications protocols, but leave out the network security part. A wide range of attacks can happen...
Aiming at the problem of management of mental patients in hospital, a patient positioning management system based on ZigBee technology is designed by adopting the RSSI positioning engine and trilateration method, which can realize to track and monitor the activities of mental patients in hospital by uploading the patient position data to the host computer monitor software for processing through the...
In order to reduce operational expenditure (OPEX), network function virtualization infrastructure (NFVI) should be distributed over multiple geographical locations and managed by a centralized and unified management and orchestration system (MANO). In addition, the NFV platform is required to archive a high level of availability and scalability for virtual network functions (VNFs) across multi-site...
In this paper we develop a non-intrusive model-based catalyst monitoring algorithm that operates by determining the magnitude of the catalyst's frequency-domain transfer function in a specific range of frequencies corresponding to a small-amplitude square-wave input command. This method requires the calibration of two parameters within a simple catalyst model consisting of a system gain, a time delay,...
We are interested in this work to the design and more particularly the achievement of a passive and inexpensive microwave RFID sensor. This will be allowing us to control and to monitor the quality of the engine oil of a mobile. The sensor consists of a dipole placed inside the oil sump of the mobile. Knowing the variation of the relative permittivity of the engine oil, as a function of the distance...
This paper addresses the shared resource contention problem associated with the auto-parallelization of running queries in distributed stream processing engines. In such platforms, analyzing a large amount of data often requires to execute user-defined queries over continues raw-inputs in a parallel fashion at each single host. However, previous studies showed that the collocated applications can...
The BigDAWG polystore database system aims to address workloads dealing with large, heterogeneous datasets. The need for such a system is motivated by an increase in Big Data applications dealing with disparate types of data, from large scale analytics to realtime data streams to text-based records, each suited for different storage engines. These applications often perform cross-engine queries on...
Vehicle Health Management Systems (VHMS) are used throughout commercial, military, and aerospace platforms to assess the current operational status of individual assets and entire fleets. One of the most common functions within most VHMS implementations is the collection and reporting of fault conditions and trouble codes. The management of this fault data, particularly its representation to a user,...
Future implantable devices demand ultra-low power consumption with self-calibration capability providing real-time processing of biomedical signals. This paper introduces an adaptive processing framework for highly accurate on-chip spike sorting processing by learning the signal model in the recorded neural data. The novel adaptive spike sorting processor employs dual thresholding detection, adaptive...
A polystore system is a database management system composed of integrated heterogeneous database engines and multiple programming languages. By matching data to the storage engine best suited to its needs, complex analytics run faster and flexible storage choices helps improve data organization. BigDAWG (Big Data Working Group) is our prototype implementation of a polystore system. In this paper,...
The purpose of this paper is a presentation of a recursive project (a platform), that started three years ago, in which shore management companies can collect, transmit, store, analyze and finally use and present vessels live data on a Geographical Information System used as Global Monitoring Platform. We used those data for further analysis, and we produced information about engine performance, gas...
Aeroengine is a complicated system in which the transmission components, rotating components, etc. all have lubrication requirements, so the aeroengine lubrication system has an important impact on the operation of the engine. The oil consumption rate is a direct response to the health of the lubrication system. When the oil consumption rate is too high or else too low, it shows that the oil system...
This paper reviews the technique of electrostatic monitoring. Over the past twenty years, the technique of electrostatic monitoring has been developed and applied to aircraft and engine condition monitoring in a wide range of components. The first successful application was to gas turbine engines where it was used to detect the presence of foreign debris in the gas path. Subsequent research has shown...
In this paper we introduce the scientific issues related to deploying, in a multi-Cloud architecture, an infrastructure using the publish-subscribe paradigm for orchestrating the components of a framework that execute scientific workflows in highly heterogeneous and dynamic environments. More specifically we are in search of the adequate approaches to build deployment systems for heterogeneous and...
Gas turbine engine blades are subjected to severe fatigue which is caused by complex in-service environment. In fact, blade crack is one of the costliest sources of damage in gas turbine. Detection of cracks of blades is important to ensure safe and reliable operation of gas turbine engine. A vibration-based damage-detection methodology is presented in this paper to monitor the health condition of...
In this work, an advanced vehicle monitoring and tracking system is proposed and designed for the purpose of monitoring the vehicles which are moving from one place to the other in order to provide safety and security. The proposed method puts together superior exercise of contemporary technology by means of Embedded C programming language and the unit developed via LPC2148 and its sophisticated features...
SAR-based image thresholding can be used to detect and map open water body locations and extents. The selection of a reasonable and consistent thresholding approach can be challenging across many complex landcover types. Besides SAR acquisition characteristics, environmental factors (e.g., emergent vegetation and wind-induced roughening of the water) can cause water locally increased backscatter relative...
This research focuses on improving business process worked under workflow simulation. In the business process, there are several properties to be considered such as person, cost, time. The current workflow simulation cannot combine these properties to simulate the situation for business decision making. In this paper, the improving business workflow simulation is proposed by adding the business properties...
Model-based simulation and monitoring are becoming part of advanced learning environments.
