Employing Sensor Network to Guide Firefighters in Dangerous Area
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, we intend to focus on the sensor network applications in firefighting. A distributed algorithm is developed for the sensor network to guide firefighters through a burning area. The sensor network models the danger of the area under coverage as obstacles, and has the property to adapt itself against possible changes. The protocol developed, will integrate the artificial potential field of the sensors with the information of the intended place of moving firefighter so that it guides the firefighter step by step through the sensor network by choosing the safest path in dangerous zones. This protocol is simulated by Visual-Sense and the simulation results are available.

Employing Theory Formation to Guide Proof Planning
The invention of suitable concepts to characterise mathematical structures is one of the most challenging tasks for both human mathematicians and automated theorem provers alike. We present an approach where automatic concept formation is used to guide non-isomorphism proofs in the residue class domain. The main idea behind the proof is to automatically identify discriminants for two given stru...

Context awareness is an important aspect in many ICT applications. For example, in an intelligent home network location of the user enables session transfer, lighting and temperature control etc. In fact in a body area sensor network (BASN) location estimation of a user helps in realizing realtime monitoring of the person (especially those who require help) for better health supervision. In thi...
full textEmploying a Recurrent Linear Model to Guide Mobile Robots Adaptively
Controller adaptation is always a major concern. A controller that meets certain performance design objectives can not be satisfactory unless it can preserve them in the presence of system parameters fluctuation over a wide range of operation conditions. For autonomous robots, a controller that preserves stability and robustness dynamically is especially desirable. This paper presents, therefor...
full textBecoming Scientists: Employing Adaptive Interactive Narrative to Guide Discovery Learning
We propose to develop a domain-independent framework to automatically generate guidance for students in an exploratory scientific learning environment, where this guidance takes the form of interactive narrative. Our hypothesis is that this form of guidance yields statistically significant improvements in learning effectiveness and efficiency over unguided exploratory learning or direct pedagogy.
