Internet of Things for Automation in Smart Agriculture

By combining the different monitoring and automation techniques available today, we can develop cutting-edge internet of things (IoT) systems that can support sustainable development through smart agriculture. Systems are able to monitor the farming areas and react to the parameters being monitored on their own without the presence of human beings. This automation can result in a more precise way of maintaining the aspects that affect the growth of plants, leading to an increase in the food production on farmlands. This chapter focuses on IOT for automation in smart agriculture and provides a pathway to develop automation system in the smart environment.

ONAP

The ever-increasing complexity of networks and services advocates for the introduction of automation techniques to facilitate the design, the delivery, and the operation of such networks and services. The emergence of both network function virtualization (NFV) and software-defined networks (SDN) enable network flexibility and adaptability which open the door to on-demand services requiring automation. In aim of holding the increasing number of customized services and the evolved capabilities of public networks, the open network automation platform (ONAP), which is in open source, particularly addresses automation techniques while enabling dynamic orchestration, optimal resource allocation capabilities, and end-to-end service lifecycle management. This chapter addresses the key ONAP features that can be used by industrials and operators to automatically manage and orchestrate a wide set of services ranging from elementary network functions (e.g., firewalls) to more complex services (e.g., 5G network slices).

Mobile Application Based Home Automation with Security Advancements utilizing IoT and Computer Vision

Security has consistently been a numbers game. Time to discovery and time to reaction have been measurements security groups have looked to diminish since the get-go (or if nothing else the start of PCs…). However, what does it take to really decrease that number? Mechanizing security undertakings like the ones described in this paper is no longer a "nice to have." It's a "need to have." Automating house features incorporating security advancements can alleviate many of today’s biggest security issues and offer us group operational efficiencies that can profit us now and over the long haul. Our work aims in automatic handling of security operations-related tasks. It takes care of executing these tasks, such as scanning for vulnerabilities, with minimal required human intervention. We propose a complete smart security system with home automation techniques complementing security advancements. The system is controlled by a mobile application which works in dual mode. In the first mode, the owner can control the home upon his/her discretion and can access the home automation features such as unlocking their house using the same application without being physically present. While the other mode requires the person (trying to enter the house) to be physically present and provide his fingerprint biometrics and face detection to access the house. The photo of the person is sent to the owner for his confirmation and the owner can then decide whether to identify and allow the guest as an acquaintance or to report to the police as a suspect. Both modes allow the use of home automation techniques using the dial pad of the owner’s phone.

Industrial Automation Techniques based Internet of Things

Internet of Things (IoT) is the system of electronic devices implemented in the embedded platform that enables the program, sensors, and connection of networks for the collection and exchange of data and those led to the popularity of IoT. Here, we are building a network which monitors the industrial applications automatically and produce Alerts/Alarms and helps in making intelligent decisions with the help of IoT. Internet of things helps in developing effective industrial systems by making use of wireless devices,Android applications and sensors.
