In recent years, the range of sensing technologies has expanded rapidly, whereas sensors present many advantages including flexibility, low cost, easy deployment and so on. Therefore, WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) can play a vital role in the Industry 4.0 framework. This has led to a rapid expansion in smart factories and intelligent manufacturing systems. Integration intelligent network sensors in case of remote maintenance applications that link information technology solutions with condition-based maintenance have not been considered before, for that the proposed application will enable industrial manufacturing to implement condition-based maintenance for the health status of industrial equipment. The paper presents system architecture and hardware organization, explain the choice of sensors devices; as well as the identification of sensor configurations and network topologies; also the choice of the more appropriate platform based on the power consumption in a comparative way using Contiki software.
This study made it possible to retrace the major stages in the implementation of thermal regulations for buildings while placing them in their global and regional framework. This regulation, which was born following the crucial energy consumption experienced by the building sector and which has prompted countries to take regulatory steps to combat this scourge. Morocco is also committed to this approach by setting up the Moroccan Construction Thermal Regulation (RTCM), in order to guarantee energy efficient buildings. Following the comparison with the Thermal Building Regulations of Tunisia (RTBT), a country enjoying a comparable climatic and economic framework, our study also allowed us to underline the similarity of approaches in the two countries but also the delay experienced by Morocco in this implementation which fortunately is in the process of filling it by accelerating the procedures. Our work is in line with this perspective, by making it possible to highlight the steps taken in the establishment of this RTCM and those that remain to be developed, refined or adapted to the country context. In this sense, a broad consultation of stakeholders (decision-makers, prescribers and professionals) through a survey, allowed us to elucidate the reasons for the delay in the implementation of this RTCM, and the skepticism of both sides to its consideration favoring by far its voluntary aspect of its application. This consultation has especially enabled us to enrich this regulation for a better adaptability to the Moroccan context, ensuring at the same time a fairly flexible transition from a voluntary application to a compulsory application. In addition, we have reviewed the high performance insulation materials to be offered for both building envelopes and their structures. And for better performance, we have also proposed the integration of certain Moroccan standards in digital simulation tools for thermally insulating buildings and which will be developed in the next work.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
