- PublicationA mobile gateway for remote interaction with wireless sensor networks(IEEE, 2011-06-09)
; ; ; ; ; Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) almost invariably support a centralised network management model. Though the data gathering function is conducted remotely, such data is usually routed via data sinks to central servers for processing, storage, visualisation and interpretation. However, the issue of supporting remote access to WSNs and individual sensor nodes whilst in their physical environment has not been viewed as a priority. It is envisaged that this situation will change as WSNs proliferate in a range of domains, and the potential for supporting innovative revenue-generating services manifest themselves. As a step towards realising such access, a mobile gateway has been designed and implemented. This gateway supports Zigbee as this is the predominant protocol supported by WSNs. Furthermore, it also supports Bluetooth, thereby facilitating interaction with conventional mobile devices. The gateway is programmable according to the needs of arbitrary services and applications.1457Scopus© Citations 20 - PublicationEmbedding intelligent decision making within complex dynamic environments(Springer, 2007-03)
; ; ; ; ; ; ; Decision-making is a complex and demanding process often constrained in a number of possibly conflicting dimensions including quality, responsiveness and cost. This paper considers in situ decision making whereby decisions are effected based upon inferences made from both locally sensed data and data aggregated from a sensor network. Such sensing devices that comprise a sensor network are often computationally challenged and present an additional constraint upon the reasoning process. This paper describes a hybrid reasoning approach to deliver in situ decision making which combines stream based computing with multi-agent system techniques. This approach is illustrated and exercised through an environmental demonstrator project entitled SmartBay which seeks to deliver in situ real time environmental monitoring.1254Scopus© Citations 12 - PublicationAir quality monitoring for pervasive health(IEEE, 2010-10)
; ; ; ; ; Two monitoring projects relate to this issue's theme, "Hostile Environments": "Landslide Monitoring in the Emilia Romagna Apennines" and "Air Quality Monitoring for Pervasive Health." In addition, "Task-Driven Framework for Pervasive Computing" reports on TaskOS, a project to develop task-driven recommendation systems for pervasive computing environments.279Scopus© Citations 1 - PublicationTransit and Transport : Monitoring and Validating the Transport of Waste(IEEE, 2013-01)
; ; ; ; ; The illegal disposal of waste is a growing problem in many countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. A weakness with the conventional waste-management cycle concerns the validation and integrity of the transportation process, from collection at industrial premises to delivery at a licenced waste-disposal facility. The Waste Augmentation and Integrated Shipment Tracking (WAIST) an on going project, at CLARITY:Centre for Sensor Web Technologies, focuses on this very problem. WAIST integrates a triptych of sensing technologies in addressing this problem91Scopus© Citations 1
