A pattern language for fire alarm systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
After an object-oriented framework for micro-processor based fire alarm systems had been implemented and the first instantiated system had reached product status an effort was undertaken to clearly document the architecture embedded in the framework. The result of this effort was a small pattern language which is presented in this paper. Important patterns in this language are the Point pattern, which covers the abstraction of sensors and actuators, and the Deviation pattern which deals with alarms, faults and other abnormal conditions. The described framework is intended to cover a spectrum of fire alarm systems ranging from small office systems to large complex systems intended for industrial multi-building plants.

متن کاملRemote Control and Monitoring of Fire Alarm Systems
Most of the actual fire alarm systems used in small and medium size places in the market works as a standalone systems without the possibility of remote monitoring or configuration. This article shows a new development that provided for one hand, an Alarms and Events Reception System (AERS) that provide remote monitoring of fire alarm systems status based on a LabVIEW application and an additio...
متن کاملApplying the Object-Oriented Framework Technique to a Family of Embedded Systems
This paper discusses some experiences from a project developing an objectoriented framework for a family of fire alarm system products. TeleLarm AB, a Swedish security company, initiated the project. One application has so far been generated from the framework with successful results. The released application has shown zero defects and has proved to be highly flexible. Fire alarm systems have a...
متن کاملMethodology and Application of Pattern Mining in Multiple Alarm Flood Sequences
Alarm floods have always been serious hazards in industrial process monitoring since they overwhelm operators with large amount of alarm messages raised within a short period of time. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to find an optimal alignment of multiple alarm flood sequences so that based on this alignment an alarm sequence pattern can be easily found. The pattern could reveal the cor...
متن کاملVideo based Flame Detection - Using Spatio-temporal Features and SVM Classification
Video-based surveillance systems can be used for early fire detection and localization in order to minimize the damage and casualties caused by wildfires. However, reliability of these systems is an important issue and therefore early detection versus false alarm rate has to be considered. In this paper, we present a new algorithm for video based flame detection, which identifies spatio-tempora...
