Photos: Unmanned 'spy in the sky' takes off
Photo One Watchkeeper operator controls the mission, with the other tracking the information being fed from the UAV sensors. The UK Ministry of Defence's Watchkeeper programme is aiming to develop an unmanned 'spy in the sky'... [15 Aug 2008]
QoS Challenges and Opportunities in Wireless Sensor/Actuator Networks
White Paper A Wireless Sensor/Actuator Network (WSAN) is a group of sensors and actuators that are geographically distributed and interconnected by wireless networks. Sensors gather information about the state of... [04 Aug 2008]
Diagnostic Network Patch System for SHM and Intelligent Infrastructure
White Paper In the algorithms of DNP system, an interrogation module controls the network configuration of actuators and sensors and commits retrieving a data set of sensor signals. As a diagnostic system for Continuous Structural... [04 Aug 2008]
Energy-Scalable Algorithms and Protocols for Wireless Microsensor Networks
White Paper Rather, it is the combined knowledge of all the sensors that describes what is occurring in the environment. Wireless microsensor networks lend themselves to trade-offs in energy and quality. In these networks, the... [04 Aug 2008]
A Probabilistic Vehicle Diagnostic System Using Multiple Models
White Paper In addition to requiring no extra sensors, the diagnostic system presented in this paper also allows for high accuracy and low development costs by using information from multiple simple models. In addition to being... [04 Aug 2008]
Infosys launches radical retail tech services
News The retail offering, called ShoppingTrip360, focuses on a wireless infrastructure of sensors and mobile data links that give retailers and packaged goods suppliers highly detailed information about customer behaviours. [01 Aug 2008]
Photos: 'Hero' bot hunts criminals
Photo The robot, seen showing off its agility here, can also be fitted with heartbeat detectors as well as sensors to identify chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear materials being smuggled into the UK. [24 Jul 2008]
Photos: Waging war on the web's bad guys
Photo Data for the intelligence network floods in from more than 40,000 registered sensors and two million probes in more than 180 countries. Symantec's security operations centre analyses more than one billion logs per day,... [21 Jul 2008]
QoS Issues With the L-Store Distributed File System
White Paper As the flood of data associated with leading edge instruments, sensors, and simulations continues to escalate, the challenge of supporting the distributed collaborations that depend on these huge flows becomes... [18 Jul 2008]
QoS Support in Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
White Paper Further, unique characteristics of WSNs, such as extremely resource-constrained sensors, large-scale random deployment, and novel data-centric communication protocols, pose unprecedented challenges in the area of QoS... [18 Jul 2008]
On Handling QoS Traffic in Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper However, the growing interest in applications that demand certain end-to-end performance guarantees and the introduction of imaging and video sensors have posed additional challenges. Many new routing and MAC layer... [18 Jul 2008]
Characterizing the Performance of Network Intrusion Detection Sensors
White Paper Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) are becoming an important tool for protecting critical information and infrastructure. The quality of a NIDS is described by the percentage of true attacks detected combined with the number of... [10 Jul 2008]
Adaptive Model Generation for Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper Using the same data collected by intrusion detection sensors, adaptive model generation builds detection models on the fly. The system using the DARPA Intrusion Detection Evaluation data is evaluated and shows an... [10 Jul 2008]
Network & Agent Based Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper This classification depends on their Data Gathering Components (sensors), which they use to collect data to detect possible attacks against system. This paper is focused on Network Based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS)... [10 Jul 2008]
Data Mining Methods for Network Intrusion Detection
White Paper This paper propose that the solution to this problem is the application of an ensemble of data mining techniques which can be applied to network connection data in an offline environment, augmenting existing real-time... [10 Jul 2008]
