Gathering the produced information based on a very tiny sensing devices under the umbrella of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The nature of these networks suffers from missing sharing among them in both hardware and software, which causes redundancy and more budget to be used. Thus, the appearance of Shared Sensor Networks (SSNs) provides a real modern revolution in it.

  • A Comparative Study Between Operating Systems (Os) for the Internet of Things (Iot)
    VOLUME 5 NO 4, 2017 A Comparative Study Between Operating Systems (Os) for the Internet of Things (IoT) Aberbach Hicham, Adil Jeghal, Abdelouahed Sabrim, Hamid Tairi LIIAN, Department of Mathematic & Computer Sciences, Sciences School, Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdellah University, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Abstract : We describe The Internet of Things (IoT) as a network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data in real time with the outside world. It therefore assumes an operating system (OS) which is considered as an unavoidable point for good communication between all devices “objects”. For this purpose, this paper presents a comparative study between the popular known operating systems for internet of things . In a first step we will define in detail the advantages and disadvantages of each one , then another part of Interpretation is developed, in order to analyze the specific requirements that an OS should satisfy to be used and determine the most appropriate .This work will solve the problem of choice of operating system suitable for the Internet of things in order to incorporate it within our research team. Keywords: Internet of things , network, physical object ,sensors,operating system. 1 Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) is the vision of interconnecting objects, users and entities “objects”. Much, if not most, of the billions of intelligent devices on the Internet will be embedded systems equipped with an Operating Systems (OS) which is a system programs that manage computer resources whether tangible resources (like memory, storage, network, input/output etc.) or intangible resources (like running other computer programs as processes, providing logical ports for different network connections etc.), So it is the most important program that runs on a computer[1].

  • Scantraffic: Smart Camera Network for Traffic Information Collection
    ScanTraffic: Smart Camera Network for Traffic Information Collection Daniele Alessandrelli1, Andrea Azzar`a1, Matteo Petracca2, Christian Nastasi1, and Paolo Pagano2 1 Real-Time Systems Laboratory, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy fd.alessandrelli, a.azzara, [email protected] 2 National Laboratory of Photonic Networks, CNIT, Pisa, Italy fmatteo.petracca, [email protected] Abstract. Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs) are gaining growing in- terest from governments and research communities because of the eco- nomic, social and environmental benefits they can provide. An open issue in this domain is the need for pervasive technologies to collect traffic- related data. In this paper we discuss the use of visual Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), i.e., networks of tiny smart cameras, to address this problem. We believe that smart cameras have many advantages over classic sensor motes. Nevertheless, we argue that a specific software in- frastructure is needed to fully exploit them. We identify the three main services such software must provide, i.e., monitoring, remote configura- tion, and remote code-update, and we propose a modular architecture for them. We discuss our implementation of such architecture, called ScanTraffic, and we test its effectiveness within an ITS prototype we deployed at the Pisa International Airport. We show how ScanTraffic greatly simplifies the deployment and management of smart cameras col- lecting information about traffic flow and parking lot occupancy. Keywords: intelligent transport systems, visual wireless sensor net- works, smart cameras 1 Introduction Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs) are nowadays at the focus of public au- thorities and research communities aiming at providing effective solutions for improving citizens lifestyle and safety.

  • An Improved Ant Colony Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Network Routing
    Paper—An Improved Ant Colony Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Network Routing An Improved Ant Colony Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Network Routing https://doi.org/10.3991/ijoe.v13i05.7060 Liping LV Jiaozuo University, Henan, China [email protected] Abstract—In order to make the energy consumption of network nodes rela- tively balanced, we apply ant colony optimization algorithm to wireless sensor network routing and improve it. In this paper, we propose a multi-path wireless sensor network routing algorithm based on energy equalization. The algorithm uses forward ants to find the path from the source node to the destination node, and uses backward ants to update the pheromone on the path. In the route selec- tion, we use the energy of the neighboring nodes as the parameter of the heuris- tic function. At the same time, we construct the fitness function, and take the path length and the node residual energy as its parameters. The simulation re- sults show that the algorithm can not only avoid the problem of local optimal solution, but also prolong the life cycle of the network effectively. Keywords—wireless sensor network, ant colony algorithm, routing 1 Introduction In recent years, with the rapid development of wireless communication technology, the sensor becomes miniaturized, networked, integrated and intelligent [4]. Compared with traditional sensors, the cost of micro sensors is very low. However, its coverage is small. Therefore, in practical applications, tens of thousands of micro-sensors are often required to work together. Based on this demand, the concept of wireless sensor networks has emerged [2]. As an important information acquisition technology, wireless sensor networks greatly expand the functionality of existing networks [1].

Kale1, Rohit D. Kulkarni2 Associate Professor, Department of Electronic Science, KTHM College, Nashik, Maharashtra, India1 M. Phil. Student, Department of Electronic Science, KTHM College, Nashik, Maharashtra, India2 Abstract: Advances in wireless networking, micro-fabrication and integration of sensors and actuators manufactured using micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology and embedded microprocessors have enabled a new generation of massive-scale sensor networks suitable for a range of commercial and military applications. Sensor networks promise to couple end users directly to sensor measurements and provide information that is precisely localized in time and/or space, according to the user’s needs or demands. Node-level design simulators simulate the behaviour of a sensor network on a per-node basis. Using simulation, designers can quickly study the performance in terms of timing, power, bandwidth, and scalability without implementing them on actual hardware and dealing with the actual physical phenomena. The present communication gives the brief survey of wireless sensor network (WSN), WSN components, details of operating systems (TinyOS, RIOT, Nano-RK, MANTIS etc.) and WSN simulation software’s (NS2, OMNET++, J-Sim, JiST, GloMoSim, SSFNet etc.). The aim is to provide a better understanding of the current research issues in this field and outline the use of certain tools to meet the design objectives which will be useful to learner/researcher to develop WSNs applications. Keywords: Sensor nodes, Architecture, Operating system, Simulation software, Wireless technology.
