Carbon Monoxide (CO) is the most abundant air pollutant gas and accumulates rapidly to dangerous concentrations even in areas that seem to be well ventilated. Carbon monoxide detectors/alarm systems exist but people who are old, hearing impaired, partially sighted or heavy sleepers may not get the warning or find it difficult to wake up and get out in the event of dangerous concentration of CO ...

We developed Smart Furniture, which extemporaneously converts the legacy non-smart space into a Smart Hot-spot which consists of computational services. Since the Smart Furniture is equipped with networked computers, sensors and various I/O devices, it can provide various services by alone or by coordinating with other devices. In this paper, the physical structure and middlewares for the Smart...

A Machine Protection System implemented on the SLC automatically controls the beam repetition rates in the accelerator so that radiation or temperature faults slowthe repetition rate to bring the fault within tolerance without shutting down the machine. This process allows the accelerator to aid in the fault diagnostic process, and the protection system automatically restores the beams back to ...

Cleaning the dustbin is an important process which has to be done at regular basis but due to the inconsistency in the filling of waste, sometimes it gets overflowed even before the next cleaning process arrives. It is also observed that the garbage gets accumulated due to irregular removal of garbage present in the dustbin. Here we have figured out a new model for the municipal dustbins which ...

The current U.S. electrical power grid is an out-of-date infrastructure, and the Smart Grid is an upgrade that will add many new functionalities to meet customers’ new power requirements. Updating a system as complex as the electrical power grid has the potential of introducing new security vulnerabilities into the system. This document presents a review of the work related to Smart Grid cyber ...

The Network Economy forces managers to pursue opportunities and engage competition through alliances and networks of alliances. Managers and organisations must therefore nurture the skills that successful alliance development and management require, and attain the “partnering mindset” pertinent to this new industrial paradigm. Studies indicate that alliance success remains an elusive aspiration...

Smart devices have been developed and widely used recently, so they have been applied in the industrial field. If mobile technology is applied to the CAD field, users will be able to obtain many advantages such as high mobility and ease of collaboration. To develop a feature-based CAD system that can be made available on smart devices, we suggested a system using multi-touch inputs in 2012; thi...

Smart Classroom is a Smart Space developed to enhance traditional tele-education practice. This paper describes the considerations of bringing forward Smart Platform as the software infrastructure of Smart Classroom system, abandoning the former implementation based on OAA. As a multiagent system for Smart Space, Smart Platform encompasses following features: spontaneous discovery of runtime en...
