Over a period of decades there are lot of frequent disruptions due to natural, man-made and technological disasters which are seriously effecting the society, environment and economy. Hence it is vital that an effective integrated disaster management must be defined by integrating various types of disasters for being equipped in real time to face disasters in an extremely short span of time. In this paper a framework for disaster management is defined based on cloud and internet of things. A disaster management use case is developed based on the defined framework by integrating natural and manmade disasters. Natural disaster events are integrated to derive the probable insurance claims based on historical data and for the insurance agencies to be equipped in the event of disaster. Manmade disaster events will alert the end users when disaster events are about to occur. Here heterogeneous devices and data are firmly integrated to monitor various disaster events at one stop.

“…On the other hand, the integration of these low-cost and small devices in an application architecture using web technologies is known as the Web of Things (WoT) [5][6][7]. Thus, WoT provides degrees of freedom, so that the students can implement different approaches to solve the proposed activities by the teaching team.…”

Web of Things Platforms for Distance Learning Scenarios in Computer Science Disciplines: A Practical Approach

et al. 2019

Problem-based learning is a widely used learning methodology in the field of technological disciplines, especially in distance education environments. In these environments, the most used tools, which provide learning scenarios, are remote and virtual laboratories. Internet of Things (IoT) devices can be used as remote or virtual laboratories. In addition to this, they can be organized/orchestrated to build remote maker spaces through the web. These types of spaces are called the Web of Things (WoT). This paper proposes the use of these types of spaces and their integration as practical activities into the curricula of technological subjects. This approach will allow us to achieve two fundamental objectives: (1) To improve the academic results (grades) of students; and (2) to increase engagement and interest of students in the studied technologies, including IoT devices. These platforms are modeled using archetypes based on different typologies and usage scenarios. In particular, these usage scenarios will implement a learning strategy for each problem to be solved. The current work shows the evolution of these archetypes and their application in the teaching of disciplines/subjects defined in computer science, such as distributed computing and cybersecurity.Technologies 2019, 7, 17 2 of 20 an application layer which allows things to be a part of the web, by means of using existing well-known standards. This way, the basics of WoT imply the use of web services programming APIs as REST (Representational State Transfer) [8], standard protocols as HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) [9], and communication technologies as WebSockets [10]. These elements are part of the application layer, which simplifies the building of applications involving the IoT [6].A first clear approach of this paradigms is the "Distributed Computing" context. This was the context of our first generation of remote laboratories, based on the IoT market. In order to achieve better learning results, the students had to program real low-cost IoT devices, managed by Raspberry Pi and Arduino Yun platforms, which were installed inside a scale mock-up of a smart house. They had to integrate them into the cloud using the WoT model. These innovative technologies are been applied inside the learning model of many courses [11,12], allowing students a smooth and natural approach to the previous mentioned technologies and their diverse applications [13][14][15][16][17].This first experience showed that there are more applications for this approach, aside from the "Distributed Computing" context. Our first generation presented some drawbacks. For instance, the creation of new experiments was ad-hoc. A computational load-balance system was also needed to avoid the fall of the services. It should take into account that the execution of processes takes place on low-cost IoT devices; these devices have reduced computational capabilities. Finally, lecturers cannot easily track the students' performance. They must search among logs to determine what actions were ca...

“…Other studies dealing with this topic have been mostly theoretical (based on computer simulations, e.g., [8,9]) or pilot studies without full scale implementation of the technology (e.g., [10][11][12][13]). Current research is changing this situation rapidly, as the following examples show: an anti-collision solution for crane groups based on WSN and IoT technology [14]; a logistics solution that could be applied on building sites [15]; and an application for the management of fire emergencies [16]. However, these are proposals based on research and not yet commercial solutions.…”

This paper is based on the experience of introducing wireless sensor networks (WSNs) into the building industry in Denmark and in a rural area of Greenland. There are very real advantages in the application of the technology and its consequences for the life cycle operation of the building sector. Sensor networks can be seen as an important part of the Internet of Things and may even constitute an Internet of Sensors, since the communication layers can differ from the Internet standards. The current paper describes the case for application, followed by a discussion of the observed adaptive advantages and consequences of the technology. Essentially, WSNs constitute a highly sophisticated technology that is more robust in a rural context due to its extremely simple installation procedures (plug and play) allowing the use of local less-skilled labour, and the possibility of reconfiguring and repurposing its use remotely.
