FlyZone: A Testbed for Aerial Drone Applications
Aerial drones offer exciting new opportunities for mobile computing. One of the major hurdles to the development of drone applications in both industry and academia is the difficulty of experimenting in a protected setting, at reasonable cost, and in a flexible manner. To address these issues, we present FlyZone, a practical testbed design with an efficient system implementation that provides a...
متن کاملA comprehensive modeling framework for hazmat network design, hazmat response team location, and equity of risk
This paper considers a bi-level hazmat transportation network design problem in which hazmat shipments have to be transported over a road network between specified origin-destination points. The bi-level framework involves a regulatory authority and hazmat carriers. The control variables for the regulatory authority are locations of hazmat response teams and which additional links to include fo...
متن کاملHAZMAT Transportation and Security: Survey and Directions for Future Research
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Office of Hazardous Materials Safety estimates that an average of over 800,000 shipments of hazardous materials (HAZMAT) are made each day in the United States [27].

متن کاملSmart devices and applications for disaster prepared homes and environments
The recent decade has brought great progress in technologies for the prediction and detection of increasingly more types of natural disasters. Today, advanced weather radars and decision support systems enable accurate predictions of paths and severities of typhoons, days before their arrivals, and tornados, tens of minutes in advance. Broadband arrays of seismometers and strong seismic motion ...
متن کاملDrone Delivery Models for Healthcare
Just as the mobile phone allowed developing countries to leapfrog technology in personal communication, the delivery drone has the potential to have the same effect on traditional transportation infrastructure. Inaccessible roads no longer will prevent delivery of blood, medications or other healthcare items. This paper reviews the current status of innovative drone delivery with a particular e...
