Many real-world process control systems must handle various emergency alarms under stringent timing constraints in addition to regular control loops. However, despite considerable theoretical results on wireless control, the problem of incorporating emergency alarms in wireless control has received little attention. This paper presents, to the best of our knowledge, the first systematic approach to incorporate emergency alarms into wireless process control. The challenge in emergency communication lies in the fact that emergencies occur occasionally, but must be delivered within their deadlines when they occur. The contributions of this work are three-fold: (1) we propose efficient real-time emergency communication protocols based on slot stealing and event-based communication; (2) we build an open-source WirelessHART protocol stack in the Wireless Cyber-Physical Simulator (WCPS) for holistic simulations of wireless control systems; (3) we conduct systematic studies on a coupled water tank system controlled over a 6-hop 21-node WSAN. Our results demonstrate our real-time emergency communication approach enables timely emergency handling, while allowing regular feedback control loops to effectively share resources in WSANs during normal operations.","PeriodicalId":344612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM/IEEE Sixth International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130406199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Large-scale stadiums of e.g. professional soccer teams are characterized by having installations of grass heating systems serving the crucial commercial asset and at the same being the sub-system with the highest yearly thermal energy consumption. Public buildings of this size imply situation-specific operational modes combined with high levels of safety and comfort requirements. In this paper we provide a first study on the energy savings potential of a professional soccer stadium's grass heating system during day-to-day operation. In practice, limited heating capacities of the arena have to be adhered to, which causes the current operation to often result in under-performance of other, less critical facility units. Our analysis of dynamic operational and contextual data serves as foundation for long-term energy efficiency measures. We study relevant parameters related to the current control schemes and the stadium's context. Concretely, the grass root temperature as critical observable is studied with respect to weather conditions and the resulting thermal behavior. We provide an improved control strategy and quantify the anticipated savings of this strategy to be as high as 34% compared to the last heating season. For the future, the documented thermal characteristics will enable the formulation of more advanced control strategies to positively influence the grass heating operation. This will lead to further improvements in balancing the heating demand across all thermal facility sub-systems by integrating operational context with forecasts of the thermal behavior in the future.","PeriodicalId":344612,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the ACM/IEEE Sixth International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126904965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
