“…The sensor relies on arbitrary human command; hence the system is semi-autonomous. [30] A wireless sensor network-based system that can track and monitor materials in construction sites is developed. [31] The research was motivated by the need to envision the likely events of utilizing ZigBee as a protocol in a wireless sensor networks based on ZigBee for material tracking.…”

The security problems arising from activities of terrorists, kidnappers and human traffickers in the world, at large, can be tackled using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) related approaches. This paper presents the framework of smart objects and Internet of Things (IoT) based system for achieving cost effective and time saving combat of human trafficking and kidnapping. The major components of the system are Sensor Processing Station (SPS), Media Server Station (MSS), Smart Engine Server (SES) and Digital Situation Room (DSR). The SPS is for signal sensing via a number of workstations equipped with video camera sensors, Radio Frequency Identification Card (RFID) tags to the Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers and body worn sensors while MSS will capture and store data from the sensor processing units on the cloud server. The SES will perform logical reasoning of the system such as motion detection, face recognition, position tracking and activities recognition, DSR will be used to monitor events in real-time and on-demand modes based on Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)-enabled communications. The work presents an integration of different technologies towards combating human trafficking and kidnapping with a view to enhance existing piecewise development.

“…As a topic of distributed cooperative control, target enclosure, which achieves an enclosing formation around specific objectives by multiple agents using local information, has been discussed due to the broad range of applications. For example, surveillance using multiple sensors or sensor-enabled robots (Aguilar-Ponce, Kumar, Tecpanecatl-Xihuitl, & Bayoumi, 2007;Sarwal, Agrawal, & Chaudhary, 2007), the rescue of a wounded soldier by a group of robots and helicopters (Kamel, Beji, & Abichou, 2008), protection of UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles) by ARVs (armed robotic vehicles) (Chen, Ren, & Cao, 2010), etc.…”

This paper poses the enclosing control problem with identical geometry for a group of targets which are either stationary or moving and offers consensus-based distributed control protocols. An estimator is first introduced to estimate the central position of the targets. We then propose a target-enclosing control law with velocity information based on the centre estimating algorithm and consensus theory. A target-enclosing control law without the velocity information is further designed. The Lyapunov theory and Lasalle's invariance principle are applied to show the convergence of the proposed control algorithms. Finally, numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed strategy.

“…Recent progress in semiconductor technology and microprocessor architectures, on the one hand, and the ubiquity of telecommunication networks, on the other, favour the growth of a novel market context for sensors and actuators [1,2]. Sensors integrated into structures-coupled with the efficient delivery of sensed information-provide new services and benefits to society [3][4][5].…”

The concept of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) has been recently introduced to define modern embedded systems with enhanced digital connectivity, combining people, vehicles, and public infrastructure. The smart transducer concept, on the other hand, has been established by the IEEE 1451 standard to simplify the scalability of networked electronic equipments. The synergy of both concepts will establish a new paradigm in the near future of the ITS area. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the integration of electronic equipments into intelligent road-traffic management systems by using the smart transducer concept. An automated video processing sensor for road-traffic monitoring applications is integrated into an ITS network as a case study. The impact of the IEEE 1451 standard in the development and performance of ITS equipments is analyzed through its application to this video-based system, commercialized under the name VisioWay.
