Abstract A ground-based Fourier transform spectrometer has been developed to measure the atmospheric downwelling infrared radiance spectrum at the earth's surface with high absolute accuracy. The Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) instrument was designed and fabricated by the University of Wisconsin Space Science and Engineering Center (UW-SSEC) for the Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program. This paper emphasizes the key features of the UW-SSEC instrument design that contribute to meeting the AERI instrument requirements for the ARM Program. These features include a highly accurate radiometric calibration system, an instrument controller that provides continuous and autonomous operation, an extensive data acquisition system for monitoring calibration temperatures and instrument health, and a real-time data processing system. In particular, focus is placed on design issues crucial to meeting the ARM requirements for radiometric calibration, spectral calibration, noise performance, and operational reliability. The detailed performance characteristics of the AERI instruments built for the ARM Program are described in a companion paper.

In this paper, the real-time defects inspection was implemented via use of paralleled structure and high-speed operation of FPGA. The hardware circuit based on FPGA was established. According to signal characteristics of polymeric film defects, the preprocessing scheme of defect images based on FPGA was designed. The defect data were packed according to the defined format. Data processed were transferred to PC through USB2.0 real-timely to reconstruct defect microscopic images. The quantity of transferred data was decreased tremendously by this method. The inspecting speed was greatly improved.

AbstractTo remain competitive, organizations are increasingly taking advantage of the high volumes of data produced in real time for actionable insights and operational decision-making. In this chapter, we present basic concepts in real-time analytics, their importance in today’s organizations, and their applicability to the bioeconomy domains investigated in the DataBio project. We begin by introducing key terminology for event processing, and motivation for the growing use of event processing systems, followed by a market analysis synopsis. Thereafter, we provide a high-level overview of event processing system architectures, with its main characteristics and components, followed by a survey of some of the most prominent commercial and open source tools. We then describe how we applied this technology in two of the DataBio project domains: agriculture and fishery. The devised generic pipeline for IoT data real-time processing and decision-making was successfully applied to three pilots in the project from the agriculture and fishery domains. This event processing pipeline can be generalized to any use case in which data is collected from IoT sensors and analyzed in real-time to provide real-time alerts for operational decision-making.
