The petabytes of data generated by telemetry sensors are already used for statistical analysis or the creation of prediction models used in various applications in the area of smart cities, smart building, smart health, smart energy, etc. On the other hand, the expansion of IoT forced the need of more standardized approaches such the ones used in industrial automation. The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), as part of Industry 4.0 concept, promotes the cyber physical systems (CPS) as sensors and actuators that will build the modern automation world in and out of the factories. This article studies the IIoT reference architectures and the existing open source IoT platforms for proposing an integrated architecture for installing IIoT infrastructure that can collect and analyze big volume of data, easy and with low cost. The approach is evaluated in a smart building scenario.","PeriodicalId":383922,"journal":{"name":"2019 First International Conference on Societal Automation (SA)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126572713","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}

The first one is definition of objects to be searched, as well as preparation of a sufficient number of their examples for classifier training. The other problem are harsh underwater conditions, such as water turbidity, noise, color vanishing, to name a few. In this paper we experiment with the deep learning approach, based on various convolutional neural networks, applied to the underwater object detection. Based on our underwater test sequences we conducted experiments aimed at measuring networks responses when trained on large databases of everyday objects when applied to underwater environment. In this paper new plausible-positive metric is introduced and experimental results, as well as conclusions and further directions are presented.","PeriodicalId":383922,"journal":{"name":"2019 First International Conference on Societal Automation (SA)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122356619","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}

In this paper we discuss the possibility of exploiting Genetic Algorithms, namely algorithms that mimic the mechanisms behind the evolution of live beings, for the implementation of a simple tool for the collaborative and participatory design of public art products that assume no technical background of the users thus better supporting the democratization of the design process. This concept has been initially tested in the context of artisan products during the Maker-Faire festival, likely the most celebrated event in makerspaces, with the main purpose of understanding the ability of the proposed process of actually engage citizens. This experiment has actively involved 369 participants, a number not negligible in experiments requiring the physical participation of users. Results from this trial suggest that this process actually leads, by evolution generation after generation, to the selection of a population of three dimensional products that are better appreciated by end users in average. Although the initial conclusions of this study, on the evolution of the products over the generations, cannot be generalized, the study does provide some initial valid feedback, as first steps of a discussion on the use of generative algorithms in art products . The generative algorithms creative process, as described further in this paper, can be seen as the basis for generative collective art in the context of smart cities, while these ideas have been initially tested in the area of 3d printing for product design.","PeriodicalId":383922,"journal":{"name":"2019 First International Conference on Societal Automation (SA)","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126993179","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}

The smart grid concept relies on the integration of high-speed and reliable communication networking technologies in order to provide twofold benefits - one for the interconnection between the existing power grid and intelligent information systems, and another for enabling real-time grid monitoring via IoT devices. However, the security of IoT devices themselves is a challenge due to the trade-off between device cost and secure communication requirements. Further, current electricity grids require robust and secure wireless communication infrastructure to realize transformation to smart grids. The 5G networks are considered as an enabler for digitalization of power grids and facilitating IoT connectivity for future smart grids with several benefits such as low latency, ultra high speed, and improved reliability. However, the use of public 5G networks may introduce new types of security risks to the IoT-based smart grids infrastructure. In this paper, we analyze the security aspects of 5G security specifications released by the 3GPP standards organization from the perspective of IoT-based smart grids. In particular, we consider a smart grid scenario utilizing 5G as a wireless communication infrastructure, and present 5G benefits to several security aspects such as authentication, confidentially, integrity, resiliency, and availability. Further, we outline security risks to IoT-based smart grids originating from compromised 5G network-related infrastructure.","PeriodicalId":383922,"journal":{"name":"2019 First International Conference on Societal Automation (SA)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115182964","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}
