<p>This is thesis explores applications of Mixed Reality, commonplace technologies and representation techniques in embodied and interactive design, through the development of an airport wayfinding system. The proposition that airports can be difficult to navigate, struggling to foster social connections, along with the challenging notion of providing an interface for Big Data spatially to users, motivates the research.  The development of personalised spatial way finding techniques aids methods for the use of location and big data to ergonomically and spatially represent users’ navigation of space. Through methods of connecting people virtually within a single physical location using a unified design language, social implications of space are enhanced and extended. Finally, space which functions efficiency provides real-time feedback.  Key theory in Human Computer Interaction and Embodied Design informs the research, through mixed reality, technology and data-form translations.  Research is done over two stages, the first explores data inputs from users and represents these in 2D graphics. The second develops three separate design elements to create a spatial way finding system, to allow user engagement. These are a virtual projection, a set of physical forms and a set of wearable device applications. Design development happens through iterations within each experiment, and are always informed by previous work.  The result is an inhabitable data space with seamless embodied design exploring the localisation of large sets of data.</p>

AbstractThe amount of data produced by sensors, social and digital media, and Internet of Things (IoTs) are rapidly increasing each day. Decision makers often need to sift through a sea of Big Data to utilize information from a variety of sources in order to determine a course of action. This can be a very difficult and time-consuming task. For each data source encountered, the information can be redundant, conflicting, and/or incomplete. For near-real-time application, there is insufficient time for a human to interpret all the information from different sources. In this project, we have developed a near-real-time, data-agnostic, software architecture that is capable of using several disparate sources to autonomously generate Actionable Intelligence with a human in the loop. We demonstrated our solution through a traffic prediction exemplar problem.

With the wide application of intelligent sensors and internet of things (IoT) in the smart job shop, a large number of real-time production data is collected. Accurate analysis of the collected data can help producers to make effective decisions. Compared with the traditional data processing methods, artificial intelligence, as the main big data analysis method, is more and more applied to the manufacturing industry. However, the ability of different AI models to process real-time data of smart job shop production is also different. Based on this, a real-time big data processing method for the job shop production process based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gate Recurrent Unit (GRU) is proposed. This method uses the historical production data extracted by the IoT job shop as the original data set, and after data preprocessing, uses the LSTM and GRU model to train and predict the real-time data of the job shop. Through the description and implementation of the model, it is compared with KNN, DT and traditional neural network model. The results show that in the real-time big data processing of production process, the performance of the LSTM and GRU models is superior to the traditional neural network, K nearest neighbor (KNN), decision tree (DT). When the performance is similar to LSTM, the training time of GRU is much lower than LSTM model.

In order to make timely and effective decisions, businesses need the latest information from big data warehouse repositories. To keep these repositories up to date, real-time data integration is required. An important phase in real-time data integration is data transformation where a stream of updates, which is huge in volume and infinite, is joined with large disk-based master data. Stream processing is an important concept in Big Data, since large volumes of data are often best processed immediately. A well-known algorithm called Mesh Join (MESHJOIN) was proposed to process stream data with disk-based master data, which uses limited memory. MESHJOIN is a candidate for a resource-aware system setup. The problem that the authors consider in this chapter is that MESHJOIN is not very selective. In particular, the performance of the algorithm is always inversely proportional to the size of the master data table. As a consequence, the resource consumption is in some scenarios suboptimal. They present an algorithm called Cache Join (CACHEJOIN), which performs asymptotically at least as well as MESHJOIN but performs better in realistic scenarios, particularly if parts of the master data are used with different frequencies. In order to quantify the performance differences, the authors compare both algorithms with a synthetic dataset of a known skewed distribution as well as TPC-H and real-life datasets.

A Big Data Stream Computing (BDSC) Platform handles real-time data from various applications such as risk management, marketing management and business intelligence. Now a days Internet of Things (IoT) deployment is increasing massively in all the areas. These IoTs engender real-time data for analysis. Existing BDSC is inefficient to handle Real-data stream from IoTs because the data stream from IoTs is unstructured and has inconstant velocity. So, it is challenging to handle such real-time data stream. This work proposes a framework that handles real-time data stream through device control techniques to improve the performance. The frame work includes three layers. First layer deals with Big Data platforms that handles real data streams based on area of importance. Second layer is performance layer which deals with performance issues such as low response time, and energy efficiency. The third layer is meant for Applying developed method on existing BDSC platform. The experimental results have been shown a performance improvement 20%-30% for real time data stream from IoT application.

Cloud computing and big data analytics are the key parts of smart city development that can create reliable, secure, healthier, more informed communities while producing tremendous data to the public and private sectors. Since the various sectors of smart cities generate enormous amounts of streaming data from sensors and other devices, storing and analyzing this huge real-time data typically entail significant computing capacity. Most smart city solutions use a combination of core technologies such as computing, storage, databases, data warehouses, and advanced technologies such as analytics on big data, real-time streaming data, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the internet of things (IoT). This chapter presents a theoretical and experimental perspective on the smart city services such as smart healthcare, water management, education, transportation and traffic management, and smart grid that are offered using big data management and cloud-based analytics services.

The Internet of Things (IoT), inspired by the tremendous growth of connected heterogeneous devices, has pioneered the notion of smart city. Various components, i.e., smart transportation, smart community, smart healthcare, smart grid, etc. which are integrated within smart city architecture aims to enrich the quality of life (QoL) of urban citizens. However, real-time processing requirements and exponential data growth withhold smart city realization. Therefore, herein we propose a Big Data analytics (BDA)-embedded experimental architecture for smart cities. Two major aspects are served by the BDA-embedded smart city. Firstly, it facilitates exploitation of urban Big Data (UBD) in planning, designing, and maintaining smart cities. Secondly, it occupies BDA to manage and process voluminous UBD to enhance the quality of urban services. Three tiers of the proposed architecture are liable for data aggregation, real-time data management, and service provisioning. Moreover, offline and online data processing tasks are further expedited by integrating data normalizing and data filtering techniques to the proposed work. By analyzing authenticated datasets, we obtained the threshold values required for urban planning and city operation management. Performance metrics in terms of online and offline data processing for the proposed dual-node Hadoop cluster is obtained using aforementioned authentic datasets. Throughput and processing time analysis performed with regard to existing works guarantee the performance superiority of the proposed work. Hence, we can claim the applicability and reliability of implementing proposed BDA-embedded smart city architecture in the real world.
