In this paper, we explain the design and implementation of an intelligent irrigation control system based on fuzzy logic for the automatic control of water pumps used in farms and greenhouses. This system enables its user to save water and electricity and prevent over-watering and under-watering of the crop by taking into account the climatic parameters and soil moisture. The irrigation system works without human intervention. The climate sensors are packaged using electronic circuits, and the whole is interfaced with an Arduino and a Simulink model. These sensors provide information that is used by the Simulink model to control the water pump speed; the speed of the water pump is controlled to increase or decrease the amount of water that needs to be pushed by the pump. The Simulink model contains the fuzzy control logic that manages the data read by the Arduino through sensors and sends the command to change the pump speed to the Arduino by considering all the sensor data. The need for human intervention is eliminated by using this system and a more successful crop is produced by supplying the right amount of water to the crop when it is needed. The water supply is stopped when a sufficient amount of moisture is present in the soil and it is started as soon as the soil moisture levels drops below certain levels, depending upon the environmental factors.
A mobile Ad hoc network (MANET) has played an imperative role in making very fast connection of mobile devices without including any centralize equipment. It is the simplest way to transfer files between two or more devices that can also act as routers. Now a day, the appropriate uses of this modern wireless communication are in emergency rescue situation, military scenarios, sensor networks, conferences and many others. Mobile Ad hoc Networks are adopted when wired networks are malfunctioning or broken down due to some unavoidable situation. This rapidly deployed network collaborates without using any preexisting fixed network infrastructure. Due to rapid deployment of mobile nodes or frequent change in network topology, security is the most important concern in Mobile Ad hoc Network. Due to its limited physical security, energy constrained operations and lack of centralized administration; Ad hoc Networks are more vulnerable to attacks than a wired networks or traditional networks. With the proliferation of cheaper, small, and more powerful mobile devices, mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) have become one of the fastest growing areas of research. In this paper we are attempting to analyze the security attacks in Ad-hoc environment and focusing on various areas of security requirement, different types of active and passive attacks in Ad-hoc networks.

This paper present the speed control of DC Motor based on boost converter under the controlling of fuzzy logic. The DC motor has armature and field winding in which armature winding is controlled by using boost converter which is triggered by fuzzy logic controller which consist of 7x7 rule and the input are change in error and rate of change of error and output is firing angle. The fuzzy logic controller gives smooth, reliable, efficient speed controlling of DC motor. Further the compative analysis between fuzzy logy and PID controller is assessed. The complete system is designed with SIMULINK/MATLAB for perfect analysis between two methods mentioned.
