There are three types of agricultural information: sensor information, farm work information, and plant biological information. Measuring and visualizing these agricultural information can provide valuable support to farm managers. In this study, we focus on sensor information and farm work information and develop a web application named SALATA (Sharing and AccumuLating Agricultural TAcit knowledge) that collects and shares sensor information and farm work information collected in farm fields and correlates the information in time series. SALATA need to have intuitive operation and quick response in order that people of various ages will use it on a daily basis. Therefore, there are two primary pages: the main page for visualizing simple information quickly and the analytical page for visualizing multiple pieces of information on one page. Usability evaluation experiments are performed, showing that SALATA can be operated intuitively and respond quickly.","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

Benavente-Peces","doi":"10.5220/0008942900230028","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5220/0008942900230028","url":null,"abstract":"Massive optical sensor networks gained a lot of attention in recent years. They offer new advances in the fields of smart structures and health monitoring. All serial optic al sensor networks rely on multiplexing techniques that provide huge amounts of sensors in a single optical fiber . Wavelength-division multiplex (WDM) which has been established in many applications, is restricted to the spectral width of the used light source that needs to be shared by several non-overlapping fiber-Bragg-g ratin (FBG) spectra. Time-division multiplex (TDM) uses short impulses and relies on different sensor rou nd trip delays to distinguish each single FBG. These short impulses and long round trip times lead to a low si gnal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Optical frequencydomain reflectometry (OFDR) offers a high spatial resolutio n of FBGs but only within a short fiber length. This contribution deals with a code-division multiplex (CD M) interrogation technique that provides numerous sensors in a single optical fiber, a better SNR, and a long rang e of distributed sensing points. It requires codes with good autocorrelation behavior which is characte ized by certain criteria. The detectable criteria are limited which narrows significantly a search for best pos sible codes for the interrogation system. In this contribution, practical implementation limits such as the rigger timing and the achievable SNR are studied. Based on the introduced SNR definitions for CDM and WDM system , a direct comparison is possible and it shows the superiority of the proposed CDM scheme. A networ k with 25 sensors operating at the same wavelength can provide a 2 .67 dB improvement compared to WDM","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

The system is modelled as a Geo/Geo/1/k system and analysed using standard finite Markov chain model tools. The stationary distribution of the queue length is obtained. In the model, the harvested energy is stored in a buffer and used as required by the packets. In addition to energy usage by the packets, leakage of energy is captured at each state. A situation that involves high and low priority data transmission is also captured in the model. For evaluation, the effects of the system parameters on the performance measures are analysed. The results show that the model accurately captures the energy usage and it can be used for the management of harvested energy in Wireless Sensor Networks.","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

On the other hand, this approach may not be enough to identify an invisible tunnel digging activity underground for trespassing the border. This paper is suggesting a new method to detect tunnels by using statically filtered alarm data and DBSCAN algorithm. In this particular case MIDAS® Fiber Optic based Distributed Acoustic Sensor (DAS) system is used, which is designed by ASELSAN Inc.

Indeed, plants are capable of creating extensive communication networks thus warning each other of the presence of pests. In response, plants trigger natural strategy against the infestation. The main tool used by plants for exchanging information is the emission and detection of specific volatile organic compounds in air. To this end, monitoring these compounds can be crucial to reveal the state of health of a cultivation far before visual symptoms arise. In this work, we present a wireless sensor network where each node is based on highly sensitive zinc oxide nanostructures enabling the detection and the discrimination of several chemical gases such as CO, CO2, NO, NO2, CH4, etc. The response of each sensor is tuned by using excimer laser annealing procedure, a technique that changes the electrical and morphological properties of the sensing material. This wireless sensor network can be an appealing solution to capture signals coming from the plants without the usage of bulky and expensive equipment.","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

Different types of machines require different types of briefings. This is especially important to avoid damage and injury. Controlling access automatically is thereby desirable, as it is otherwise labor-intensive. Currently available software to organize Fablabs and makerspaces have either a rather high price tag or lacking the functionality for automated access control. Self-developed hardware is also quite common but often, due to regulatory constraints, not allowed to operate on mains. Also, there is a wide range of home automation devices that are certified for switching mains voltage. We have developed a prototypical system that makes these devices available for use in the access control of Fablabs and Makerspaces. We have identified openHAB as a useful solution for the abstraction of devices from various manufacturers.","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

Measures of vocal function (e.g., fundamental frequency) were computed, as well as measures of autonomic function (e.g., skin conductance response). Spearman correlation coefficients were calculated to measure the relationship between vocal and autonomic function over sliding windows throughout each observation day. We found preliminary evidence that patients with a subtype of vocal hyperfunction (non-phonotraumatic vocal hyperfunction) exhibit a coupling between the autonomic nervous system and the vocal system. Understanding how the autonomic nervous system interacts with the voice may provide new insights into the etiology/pathophysiology of vocal hyperfunction and improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment of these disorders.</p>","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

Indeed, timely recognising a low-trust sensor output can greatly improve the decision making process at the fusion level, help solving safety issues and avoiding expensive operations such as either unnecessary or delayed maintenance. In this framework, this paper considers the question of trust dynamics, i.e. its temporal evolution with respect to the information flow. The goal is to increase the user understanding of the trust computation model, as well as to give hints about how to refine the model and set its parameters according to specific needs. Considering a trust computation model based on three dimensions, namely reliability, likelihood and credibility, the paper proposes a protocol for the evaluation of the scoring method, in the case when no ground truth is available, using realistic simulated data to analyse the trust evolution at the local level of a single sensor. After a visual and formal analysis, the scoring method is applied to real data at a global level to observe interactions and dependencies among","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...

However, many real situations in business environment are of bursty nature. Buyers often appear concentrated or, in other words, bursty. Different approaches for analysing buyers’ behaviour have been developed. One of these approaches focuses on analysis of gaps between buyers, and the buyers’ scenario is completely described by the sequence of gaps. The present research is interdisciplinary, namely telecommunications and business management. The methodology of the present contribution is built on adaptation of gap distribution functions from data transmission theory in telecommunications to bursty business process in business management. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate inter-connections between different gap distribution functions such as Weibull, Exponential and Wilhelm as well as to compare different gap distribution functions for their suitability when analysing bursty processes. Furthermore, this contribution provides the mathematical description of gap processes. The comparison results of different gap distribution functions are presented. The theoretical results are confirmed by practical implementation in agent-based simulation environment.","PeriodicalId":72028,"journal":{"name":"...
