The mass uptake of internet connected, GPS enabled mobile devices has resulted in a surge citizens active making huge variety environmental observations. use and reuse potential these data is significant but currently compromised by lack interoperability. Useable standards either don’t exist, are neglected, poorly understood or tooling unavailable. Large volumes being created exist silos. This complex problem requiring sophisticated solutions balanced with the need to present sometimes...
Intelligent agents offer a viable paradigm for enabling AmI applications and services. As WSN technologies are anticipated to provide an indispensable component in many application domains, the need agent encompass such becomes more urgent. The resource-constrained ad-hoc nature of WSNs poses significant challenges conventional frameworks. In particular, implications functionality behaviour context demand that issues as unreliable message delivery limited power resources, amongst others, be...
Ubiquitous sensing fuses the concepts of intelligent systems with ubiquitous computing in development novel Sensor Web applications, whereby interaction multiple disparate autonomous artefacts is a key requirement. In this paper, we present SIXTH, which middleware infrastructure for Sensing that facilitates, and supports, deployment applications. SIXTH has been designed to be extensible, provisions user definable data retention policies, custom sensor representations, node whilst still...
Mobile computing radically challenges some of the traditional assumptions associated with software development life cycle, and end-user behaviour. Successfully meeting these is fundamental importance if mobile to fulfil its considerable potential. One approach this concerns prudent selective adoption intelligent techniques. However, reconciling conflicting demands deploying sophisticated resource-intensive computational algorithms on devices that are inherently resource-poor raises...
Abstract With the growth of Internet, crowdsourcing has become a popular way to perform intelligence tasks that hitherto would be either performed internally within an organization or not undertaken due prohibitive costs and lack appropriate communications infrastructure. In systems, whereby multiple agents are under direct control system designer, it cannot assumed will act in manner is consistent with objectives designer principal agent. situations agents’ goals maximize their return...
The vision of ubiquitous computing is one in which resource constrained mobile devices form ad-hoc networks to enable the delivery services that are sensitive and responsive people. Such dynamic must be capable dealing with uncertain information. As emergent system behaviour begins evolve complexity pervasive systems increases. agent development community have been addressing issues uncertainty, within distributed computing, for several years. This paper details migration process Agent...
One of the most important factors to be considered when developing an application for a wireless sensor network (WSN) is its power consumption. Intelligent management (IPM) WSN crucial in maximizing operational longevity. An established regime achieving this through opportunistic hibernation redundant nodes. Redundancy, however, has various definitions within field WSNs and indeed multiple protocols, each operating using different definition, coexist on same node. In paper, we advocate use...
As the cost and size of WSN nodes reduce, it will be possible for deployments to provide node densities far in excess resolution requirements any one single application. When this is case, multiple, independent Virtual Sensor Networks (VSNs) can maintained on same physical deployment that satisfy distinct application requirements. In addition this, not part VSN considered redundant therefore opportunistically hibernated. paper, disadvantages a layered approach achieving such system are...
Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) has become the predominant strategy for pre‐emptively countering havoc threatened by natural hazards, complementing traditional disaster management, and recovery activities. An important component of DRR activities is community involvement, imbuing with a sense ownership risk reduction process, thus increasing resilience to deal hazards. Though desirability engagement acknowledged, differing environments contexts, all pose many obstacles enabling meaningful...
The number of active nodes in a WSN deployment governs both the longevity network and accuracy applications using network's data. As node hibernation techniques become more sophistocated, it is important that an accurate evaluation methodology employed to ensure fair comparisons across different techniques. Examining energy ensures claim increased for particular technique can be contrasted against its associated drop, if any, application accuracy. This change also as result latency...
