A Distributed Model for Stressors Monitoring Based on Environmental Smart Sensors

A Low-cost Distributed Measurement System based on Gas Smart Sensors for Environmental Monitoring

In this paper we describe the structure of a multiprocessor control system for a gas sensing array, inspired to the IEEE 1451 standard. The system (Smart Transducer Interface Module, STIM) features a simplified Transducer Independent Interface (TII) based on a 3-wire RS232 communication and is conceived as a cluster between identical monosensor subsystems and a central Controller. After a brief...

A Review on Smart Sensors Based Monitoring System for Agriculture

76 Abstract— Monitoring of environmental factors is very important over the last few decades. In particular, monitoring agricultural environments for various factors such as temperature, moisture, humidity along with other factors can be of more significance. A traditional approach to measuring these factors in an agricultural environment meant individuals manually taking measurements and check...

Model-based Data Aggregation for Structural Monitoring Employing Smart Sensors

Smart sensors densely distributed over structures can provide rich information for structural monitoring using their computational and wireless communication capabilities. One key issue in such monitoring is data aggregation. The sensors are typically sampled at high frequencies, producing large amounts of data; limited network resources (e.g., battery power, storage space, bandwidth, etc.) mak...

mortality forecasting based on lee-carter model

over the past decades a number of approaches have been applied for forecasting mortality. in 1992, a new method for long-run forecast of the level and age pattern of mortality was published by lee and carter. this method was welcomed by many authors so it was extended through a wider class of generalized, parametric and nonlinear model. this model represents one of the most influential recent d...
