In recent years, floods have increased in frequency and intensity, causing tremendous hardship. In badly affected regions, mostly the rural areas, Weir-type floodgates are the only measure against floods. However, these manually operated gates are numerous and scattered over vast areas. This makes flood mitigation efforts very challenging, which causes severe devastation. Current solutions to automate the floodgates are expensive, black-boxed, and focused on individual gates. In this paper, we present a Centralized Flood Monitoring and Coordination System developed through the Internet of Things (IoT) and other open-source technologies. For this work, we developed a working prototype of an autonomous floodgate that opens/closes according to the level of water. We also developed the required program to allow the gate controller to publish its data through the IoT gateway to the cloud. The data was then captured and viewed on a number of IoT clients, both for individuals and groups of floodgates, in real time. The developed system proved successful as the autonomous gates were monitored remotely through the established IoT framework, with room for future development and improvement. This paper serves as a proof of concept and a preparation for real, on-site implementation of the IoT-floodgates.

Roll Out

This chapter examines the merger of two cellular companies (MOBILINK and WARID) for sustainability in the telecommunication sector of Pakistan. During 2011-2013, WARID faced the news of the possible sales of the company due to falling revenues, constant poor network quality, and lower network coverage in rural areas. In 2014, all telecom players participated in the auction for 3G/4G licenses, but WARID did not participate due to its technology neutral license (TNL). Important decisions were taken in 2014 like launching of 4G/LTE services in major cities, US$500 million investment, increase of tower sites, opening of new regional sales offices. These decisions along with presence of TNL made WARID an attractive target for merger with MOBILINK. In 2016, the formal merger was finalized for benefits like synergies in CAPEX/OPEX, fastest 4G network, network reach to rural areas, roll-out of new services like the internet of things (IoT) and mobile banking. The merger proved successful. During the first quarter of 2017, the company generated PKR 38.7 billion in revenues, up from the same period a year before.

Nowadays the devices embedded with the internet connectivity termed as internet of things are constantly generating a monumental amount of the information. These huge set of data produced are coined as the big data. The big amount of data produced introduces complexity in analyzing and processing to extract the useful information’s from them, this leads to the arising of the big data analytics that remains helpful in extracting the useful information from the huge set of data available. The paper also presents the internet of things and the big data analytics for monitoring the patients in the rural areas to have an improved planning, decision making and treatment with a reduced time and cost.

Agriculture is the main and fundamental activity on this earth. However, the agricultural sector has not contributed significantly to the mitigation of natural disasters such as loss of biodiversity, migration of watercourses, lack of clean water, and drought. Based on the results of the population census in the last 10 years, Indonesia's population growth rate reaches 1.25% every year. The consequence of the current phenomenon is the scarcity of food and the shrinking of the people's economic condition. The limited availability of irrigation water is a major agricultural problem experienced by the Tawang Makmur Farmers Group (KTTM). Several solutions have been implemented such as scheduling the opening of drainage channels provided by the village and renting diesel pumps on a regular basis. But in fact, these solutions have not been able to properly address the problems experienced by KTTM. So this paper offers a solar-powered photovoltaic (PV) water pump irrigation system that is integrated with the Internet of Things. Since 1970, PV has become an alternative that is often applied to agricultural irrigation systems in rural areas. The system built in this paper utilizes solar power as a power source that supplies water pumps. The Internet of Things is integrated into the system, enabling farmers to monitor and control agricultural areas in real-time and wirelessly through an adequate internet network.  Pertanian merupakan aktifitas pokok nan fundamental di bumi ini. Akan tetapi, sektor pertanian belum memberikan kontribusi secara signifikan mengenai mitigasi bencana alam seperti kehilangan keragaman hayati, migrasi aliran air, kekurangan air bersih, dan kekeringan. Berdasarkan hasil sensus penduduk dalam 10 tahun terakhir, laju pertumbuhan penduduk Indonesia mencapai 1.25% dalam setiap tahunnya. Konsekuensi dari fenomena yang terjadi saat ini adalah kelangkaan bahan pangan dan penyusutan kondisi ekonomi rakyat. Ketersediaan air irigasi yang terbatas menjadi masalah besar pertanian yang dialami oleh Kelompok Tani Tawang Makmur (KTTM). Beberapa solusi telah diterapkan seperti penjadwalan pembukaan saluran drainase yang disediakan oleh pihak desa, dan menyewa pompa diesel secara berkala. Namun faktanya, solusi tersebut belum mampu mengatasi permasalahan yang dialami oleh KTTM secara tepat. Sehingga makalah ini menawarkan sistem irigasi pompa air photovoltaic (PV) bertenaga surya yang terintegrasi dengan Internet of Things. Sejak tahun 1970, PV telah menjadi alternatif yang sering diterapkan pada sistem irigasi lahan pertanian daerah pedesaan. Sistem yang dibangun pada makalah ini memanfaatkan tenaga surya sebagai sumber daya yang menyuplai pompa air. Internet of Things yang diintegrasikan pada sistem, memungkinkan para petani untuk melakukan monitoring dan kontrol terhadap area pertanian secara real-time dan nirkabel melalui jaringan internet yang memadai.

The existing stand-alone multimedia machines and online multimedia machines in the market have certain deficiencies, so they cannot meet the actual needs. Based on this, this research combines the actual needs to design and implement a multi-media system based on the Internet of Things and cloud service platform. Moreover, through in-depth research on the MQTT protocol, this study proposes a message encryption verification scheme for the MQTT protocol, which can solve the problem of low message security in the Internet of Things communication to a certain extent. In addition, through research on the fusion technology of the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, this research designs scheme to provide a LightGBM intelligent prediction module interface, MQTT message middleware, device management system, intelligent prediction and push interface for the cloud platform. Finally, this research completes the design and implementation of the cloud platform and tests the function and performance of the built multimedia system database. The research results show that the multimedia database constructed in this paper has good performance.
