In this work, the principal aim is establishing networks parameters of wireless sensor. These devices can transmit variables to monitoring the quality of tourist beaches in the Colombian Caribbean. We propose a methodology to choose the network elements and its technologies. We analysis data based on coverage and implement the prototype. We show that the maximum distance between nodes is 33 m at mesh...
The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming important in many areas that include health, entertainment, manufacturing, automotive, home and building automation, industrial, etc. Will it be important for education and more specifically for teaching and learning? If so, what engineering subjects would benefit the most and how effective could the IoT be for teaching and learning? Can IoT technologies and...
The revolutionary network that totally changed how the humankind life, the Internet, is now evolving into the Internet of things; which is being achieved by fetching the network connectivity to legacy industrial or commercial devices, as well as everyday objects. This connectivity may be an Internet connection, where the Internet protocol and related technologies are in use. But, there are also many...
This paper proposed a solution of Multi-frequency band 6LoWPAN accessing to IPv6 Internet based on the research of wireless sensor network, 6LoWPAN standard and IPv6 network. Furthermore, combining with the multiplexing technology and the TUN/TAP technology, this paper proposed a uplink and downlink packet scheduling mechanism oriented to the multi-packet concurrency problem and realized it in the...
Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the traditional Internet where only human-centric services were offered. It has enabled objects to have the ability to connect and communicate through the Internet. IoT has several applications such as smart water management systems. However, they require high energy-efficient sensor nodes that are able to communicate across long distance. This motivates...
Despite the modern gas equipment, combustible gas leakage related emergency situations still take place and lead to building demolitions and human losses. Leak integrity failures because of anthropogenic and natural factors make impossible to prevent such emergency in other ways except providing continuous monitoring of combustible gas concentration and notification for people and special services...
Digital Business or D-Business is an environment where nearly all physical and virtual assets in the value chain are digital. Intelligent objects, are a part of end-to-end processes. Business is conducted by intelligent agents making decisions based on context provided by the IoT — Internet of Things. In order to improve productivity in the value chain, a Steel Mill decided to automate one of its...
This paper presents an IoT (Internet of Things) system designed to allow the monitoring and control of parameters of the users' vehicles, anytime and anywhere in the world, through the Internet. The system prototype was developed and tested using an electric vehicle (EV) and the respective sensor systems. The main components of the proposed IoT system are: a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) intra-vehicular...
There are billions of Internet of things (IoT) devices connecting to the Internet and the number is increasing. As a still ongoing technology, IoT can be used in different fields, such as agriculture, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, retailing and logistics. IoT has been changing our world and the way we live and think. However, IoT has no uniform architecture and there are different kinds of attacks...
The Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, is constantly growing and attracting interest for next generation information and communication infrastructures. In this paper we focus on the exploitation of IoT platforms for remote healthcare status monitoring within the context of the so called connected health applications. In this context users and most importantly healthcare service providers and first...
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN) is extensively used in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to its ability to transmit IPv6 packet with low bandwidth and limited resources. 6LoWPAN has several operations in each layer. Most existing security challenges are focused on the network layer, which is represented by its routing protocol for low-power...
It is believed that technology will take over the day to day life of human begin. No one can remain isolated from the adaptation of technology. Hence it is the need of the hour to introduce a technology which will do the day to day life tasks in human life with smart and intelligent way. Hence, this paper critically discuss the emergence and progress of Internet of Every Things (IoET) as the next...
Conflagration is one of the major disasters that threatens human life and property. If the proper action is not taken in detecting the symptom of conflagration events ahead of time, the number of such disasters will keep increasing. An effective solution in this context will alleviate many fire-related global problems to a great extent. Although fire detectors are not available in many places, WiFi...
Environment monitoring is key for multiple applications and requires that devices used in acquiring environment data to be scattered over a wide area, but at the same time maintain accessibility of information from all sensor nodes. Although many Wireless Sensor Networks are based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for low-power, Wi-Fi networks offer the most accessibility and interoperability with other...
A smart city system will contain diverse heterogeneous smart objects. Their complexity will range from simple reduced function devices (RFD) acting as common nodes, to full function devices (FFD) acting as coordinators and controlling actuators. As part of the Internet of Things, web facing devices can be remotely accessed for monitoring, control and data exchange. This makes them vulnerable to cyber...
The emerging Internet of Things (IoT) involves integrating and forwarding data generated by heterogeneous sensing devices (IoT devices). The data is sent using various wireless technologies to application servers present in the IoT cloud via intermediate gateways. Using traditional routing techniques to connect millions of IoT devices to the Internet result in congestion and overloading of gateways...
This paper proposes a dynamic channel utilization method to minimize transmission delay by considering radio interference and wireless link rate for software defined multi-channel wireless mesh networks (SD-WMN). The OpenFlow technology, which enables us to control flows by programming, is employed to effectively utilize multiple channels in SD-WMN for traffic balancing. Existing methods assume fixed...
Today, we see the development of the Internet of Things (IoT). Latest IoT devices are embedded, single-board computers (SBC) equipped with Ethernet and WiFi. Those SBCs are run an operating system and have network interfaces and use standard Internet protocols like IP, TCP, and so on. Compared to the envisioned devices for the future IoT these SBCs are still large and connected to a steady power supply...
This project describes the design of a measurement system for agricultural precision applications and environmental parameters. It will offer the real-time state of these variables, compile data autonomously, and these data will be received and analyzed in a workstation. The main project is based on a Wireless Sensor and Actuator Network for the environmental data acquisition.
In this paper, a distributed home automation system will be demonstrated. Traditional systems are based on a central controller where all the decisions are made. The proposed control architecture is a solution to overcome the problems such as the lack of flexibility and re-configurability that most of the conventional systems have. This has been achieved by employing a method based on the new IEC...
