Sensor network supports data delivery from physical world to cyber space Sensors get physical events then wireless network transfers sensor data to service server. We use sensor network technology to manage location information of asset. In ubiquitous computing environment, user localization is basic context for intelligent service. A lot of research group make effort to develop low cost localization technology. In this paper, we propose asset monitoring system using wireless sensor network. It is implemented using ad hoc network technology which can be adopted to smart home and this system can monitor the asset location and movement.

Social infrastructure is the basis of public welfare and should be recognized and managed as important assets. Bridge is one of the most important infrastructures to be managed systematically because the impact of the failure is critical. It is essential to monitor the performance of bridges in order to manage them as an asset. But current analytical methods such as predictive modeling and structural analysis are very complicated and difficult to use in practice. To apply these methods, structural and material condition data collection should be performed in each element of bridge. But it is difficult to collect these detailed data in large numbers and various kinds of bridges. Therefore, it is necessary to collect data of major measurement items and predict the life of bridges roughly with advanced information technologies. When certain measurement items reach predefined limits in the monitoring bridges, precise performance measurement will be done by detailed site measurement. This paper describes the selection of major measurement items that can represent the tendency of bridge life and introduces automated bridge data collection test-bed using wireless sensor network technology. The following will be major parts of this paper: 1) Examining the features of conventional bridge management system and data collection method 2) Mileage concept as a bridge life indicator and measuring method of the indicator 3) Test-bed of automated and real-time based bridge life indicator monitoring system using wireless sensor network

An ongoing research project is devoted to the design and implementation of a satellite based asset tracking for supporting emergency management in crisis operations. Due to the emergency environment, one has to rely on a low power consumption wireless communication. Therefore, the communication hardware and software must be designed to match requirements, which can only be foreseen at the level of more or less likely scenarios. The latter aspect suggests a deep use of a simulator (instead of a real network of sensors) to cover extreme situations. The former power consumption remark suggests the use of a minimal computer (Raspberry Pi) as data collector.

무선 센서 네트워크를 이용하여 관심 대상의 출현을 모니터링 하는 응용에서는 동일 사실에 대해 여러 노드로부터 중복된 보고가 이루어져 네트워크 대역폭의 낭비와 관련 노드들의 전력 소모를 야기 할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 대상을 감지한 각각의 노드로 하여금 일정 기간 동안 대기하면서 보고 제한을 알리는 DRP(Don't Report Packet) 패킷을 수신하지 않는 경우에만 싱크(기지국)로 감지 사실을 보고하는 기법을 제시한다. 제한 깊이가 2인 경우 DRP 전파 비용은 물론, 감지 사실을 알리는 보고 비용 역시 최소가 되어 가장 경제적인 통신이 가능하였다. DRP 전파 깊이를 1로 제한하면 최소 2개의 서로 다른 경로를 경유하는 감지 보고가 가능하여 전달의 신뢰성을 높일 수 있다.

The convergence of fixed and wireless networks in data communication is providing the necessary driver for M2M commerce to take-off. The opportunities provided by M2M Commerce areonly limited by imagination. Automotive Fleet and Freight, Tolling, Water and Power Metering, Supply Chain Management including Asset Management, Remote Monitoring and Diagnostics, Energy Management and Access Control and Security are among the many M2M applications that are currently getting rolled out. ARC Group expects the worldwide solutions market to be worth in excess of US$ 100 billion by 2007. In addition, operator revenues worldwide from the transport of Telematics data alone will rise from US$ 3.5 billion in 2002 to US$ 78 billion by 2007. This paper discusses some of the lifestyle and business opportunities provided by M2M Commerce in the new ear of network convergence. It also provides some case studies to demonstrate the benefits of M2M Commerce across the supply chain. The key focus of the paper is on achieving enhanced lifestyle, cost reduction, improved profitability and enhanced customer relationship management through M2M Commerce.

Even though a lot of routing algorithms have been proposed, an omnipotent algorithm of routing technique, which has optimal efficiency, does not exist. Therefore, A routing algorithm in a sensor network is an application oriented; the best effective routing algorithm depends on which application it is used to. In this paper, the routing algorithm is proposed for the purpose of monitoring a movement of Assets in office. This Paper proposes a new multi-hop routing algorithm, that is, RSS(Received Signal Strength) value which was used in a localization of sensor network is applied to routing algorithm.

Tube Lines has carried out a "knowledge and investigation programme" on the deep tube tunnels comprising the Jubilee, Northern and Piccadilly lines, as required by the PPP contract with London Underground. Many of the tunnels have been in use for over 100 years, so this assessment was considered essential to the future safe functioning of the system. This programme has involved a number of generic investigations which guide the assessment methodology and the analysis of some 5,000 individual structures. A significant amount of investigation has been carried out, including ultrasonic thickness measurement, detection of brickwork laminations using radar, stress measurement using magnetic techniques, determination of soil parameters using CPT, pressuremeter and laboratory testing, installation of piezometers, material and tunnel segment testing, and trialling of remote photographic techniques for inspection of large tunnels and shafts. Vibrating wire, potentiometer, electro level, optical and fibre-optic monitoring has been used, and laser measurement and laser scanning has been employed to measure tunnel circularity. It is considered that there is scope for considerable improvements in non-destructive testing technology for structural assessment in particular, and some ideas are offered as a "wish-list". Assessment reports have now been produced for all assets forming Tube Lines' deep tube tunnel network. For assets which are non-compliant with London Underground standards, the risk to the operating railway has to be maintained as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP) using enhanced inspection and monitoring, or repair where required. Monitoring techniques have developed greatly during recent years and further advances will continue to support the economic whole life asset management of infrastructure networks.

무선 센서 네트워크는 다수의 센서 노드로 구성되며, 센서 노드들의 협력 작업을 통해 하나의 공통 작업을 수행한다. 본 논문은 무선 센서 네트워크에서 발생하는 일시적인 혼잡상황을 제어하기 위해 기존의 ECN 메커니즘과 크로스 레이어 기술을 적용한 혼잡제어 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 성능분석을 위해 NS-2 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 무선 센서 네트워크에 혼잡상황 발생시 싱크 노드에서의 패킷 처리율을 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 메커니즘이 무선 센서 네트워크의 혼잡에 효과적으로 대응함을 나타내었다.

Bridges are critical and valuable components in any road and rail transportation network. Therefore bridge remediation has always been a top priority for asset managers and engineers, but identifying the nature of true defect deterioration and associated remediation treatments remains a complex task. Nowadays Decision Support Systems (DSS) are widely used to assist decision makers across an extensive spectrum of unstructured decision environments. The main objective of this research is to develop a requirements-driven methodology for bridge monitoring and maintenance which has the ability to assess the bridge condition and find the best remediation treatments using Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique (SMART); with the aim of maintaining a bridge within acceptable limits of safety, serviceability and sustainability.
