Internet of Things technology-based management methods for environmental specimen banks

Abstract

The establishment and management of environmental specimen banks (ESBs) has long been a problem worldwide. The complexity of specimen environment has made the management of ESB likewise complex. Through an analysis of the development and management of ESBs worldwide and in light of the sophisticated Internet of Things (IOT) technology, this paper presents IOT technology-based ESB management methods. An IOT technology-based ESB management system can significantly facilitate ESB ingress and egress management as well as long-term storage management under quality control. This paper elaborates on the design of IOT technology-based modules, which can be used in ESB management to achieve standardized, smart, information-based ESB management. ESB management has far-reaching implications for environmental management and for research in environmental science.

Framework for the implementation of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based water distribution and management system

“…Daily water consumption per person in the Ahmadpur Tahsil rural areas, like Chilka, is about 60 L (Poul 2014 ). According to the Falkenmark indicator, water availability per person should be at least 1700 m 3 yearly.…”

“…Moreover, the application of IoT technology can prove valuable in water distribution efforts and the detection and prevention of leakages in the water supply chain (Arshad et al 2020 ; Lee et al 2018 ). Wastewater management is also a domain in which the employment of IoT technologies can be viable (Peng et al 2015 ). Thus, it can be said that the use of IoT technologies throughout water supply chain management will ensure better water collection, storage, distribution as well as treatment (Zeng et al 2020 ; Brandi and Dos Santos 2016 ).…”

An optimized method of HDFS for massive small files storage

“…According to the definitions of ITU and PCAST, the IoT is an interconnected network [6]. It connects everything with the Internet in accordance with certain agreements through information sensing devices, exchanges information and communicates to achieve intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management [7][8]. A CPS is a multidimensional complex system that integrates computing, communications and the physical environment.…”
