at present, the solutions to prevent bedsore include using various techniques for movement and displacement of patients, which is not  possible for some patients or dangerous for some of them while it also poses problems for health care providers. on the other hand, development of information technology in the health care system including application of wireless sensor networks (wsns) has led t...

Smart manufacturing technologies require a cyber-physical infrastructure to collect and analyze data and information across the manufacturing enterprise. This paper describes a concept for a product lifecycle test bed built on a cyber-physical infrastructure that enables smart manufacturing research and development. The test bed consists of a Computer-Aided Technologies (CAx) Lab and a Manufact...

The EAR-IT project relies on 2 test-beds to demonstrate the use of acoustic data in smart environments: the smart city SmartSantander test-bed and the smart building HobNet test-beds. In this paper, we take a benchmarking approach to qualify the various EAR-IT test-bed based on WSN and IoT nodes with IEEE 802.15.4 radio technology. We will highlight the main performance bottlenecks when it come...

With the introduction of smart grid technology, the electricity market paradigm is transformed into consumers-oriented from suppliers-oriented. Thus, a study on diffusion of smart grid in perspective of users is necessary. This research examines factors affecting the adoption and diffusion of smart grid technology from user’s perspective and provides strategic guidelines of diffusing smart grid...

Smart Grid become more popular, a smaller scale of smart grid test-bed is set up at UNITEN to investigate the performance and to find out future enhancement of smart grid in Malaysia. The fundamental requirement in this project is design a network with low delay, no packet drop and with high data rate. Different type of traffic has its own characteristic and is suitable for different type of ne...

Nowadays smart homes are becoming a rather fast progressing area for the future industrial developments. Apart of this, the new ICT smart advancing is obviously producing hidden cyber threats for the smart home inhabitants that require a special attention. This provides an inevitable necessity for exploration of possible precautionary measures for human protection. The paper describes a wearabl...

Blockchain, smart contracts, and related concepts have emerged in recent years as a promising technology for cryptocurrency, NFTs, other areas. However, there are still many security issues that must be addressed these technologies evolve. This paper reviews some of the leading social engineering attacks on well several vulnerabilities which result from insecure code development. A contract tes...

The SMART system is designed to provide a flexible test bed for evaluating a variety of potentially useful methods of automatic content .analysis in information retrieval. SMART is primarily a document retrieval system; however, many of the analysis techniques employed are also applicable to other phases of information retrieval, including fact retrieval and question-answering systems. This sec...

The transformation of electrical grids into smart-grid is seen as one of the major technological challenges of our times and at the same time as one of the key domains for Internet of Things (IoT). Smart-home technologies and corresponding analytics are an integral part of many use cases in this field. In this paper we present a cloud-based test bed for capturing and analyzing smart-home data a...
