Evolution of Ubiquitous Computing with Sensor Networks in Urban Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
A significant increase in real world event monitoring capability with wireless sensor networks will lead to a further evolution of ubiquitous computing. This paper describes this evolution, leading to humans being connected to the real world via computers without awareness. We address an ad hoc communication paradigm, a data-centric approach, and a middleware’s task, to understand the ultimate goal of this new world. We also briefly explain our upcoming new traffic monitoring project in the city of Cambridge.

Evaluation of an Intrusion Detection System for Routing Attacks in Wireless Self-organised Networks
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) arebecoming increasingly popular, and very useful in militaryapplications and environmental monitoring. However,security is a major challenge for WSNs because they areusually setup in unprotected environments. Our goal in thisstudy is to simulate an Intrusion Detection System (IDS)that monitors the WSN and report intrusions accurately andeffectively. We have thus...
متن کاملMiddleware for Mobile Sensing Applications in Urban Environments
Sensor networks represent an attractive tool to observe the physical world. Networks of tiny sensors can be used to detect a fire in a forest, to monitor the level of pollution in a river, or to check on the structural integrity of a bridge. Application-specific deployments of static-sensor networks have been widely investigated. Commonly, these networks involve a centralized data-collection po...
متن کاملGTrust: a group based trust model
Nowadays, the growth of virtual environments such as virtual organizations, social networks, and ubiquitous computing, has led to the adoption of trust concept. One of the methods of making trust in such environments is to use a long-term relationship with a trusted partner. The main problem of this kind of trust, which is based on personal experiences, is its limited domain. Moreover, both par...
متن کاملUrban Analysis for the XXI Century: Using Pervasive Infrastructures for Modeling Urban Dynamics
The recent adoption of ubiquitous computing technologies has enabled the capture of large amounts of spatio-temporal data about human motion. The digital footprints computed from these datasets provide complementary information for the study of social and human dynamics, with applications in urban planning and transportation. In this context, cell phones and cell phone networks, due to its perv...
متن کاملFDMG: Fault detection method by using genetic algorithm in clustered wireless sensor networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of a large number of sensor nodes which are capable of sensing different environmental phenomena and sending the collected data to the base station or Sink. Since sensor nodes are made of cheap components and are deployed in remote and uncontrolled environments, they are prone to failure; thus, maintaining a network with its proper functions even when und...
