A Review of Data Acquisition System based on LabVIEW

With the continuous development and expansion of automotive industry, car safety problems are widely concerned by most of us. In order to make it easier to adjust car′s real-time body posture, it is necessary to design a real-time data acquisition system, thus reducing the number of casualties in normal driving. A brief account of the development status of data acquisition system at home and abroad, and the concept, principle,function of virtual instrument platform are given. The advantages and disadvantages of the data acquisitionsystem, based on LabVIEW in different methods of data acquisition, are analyzed and compared, and put forward some improvements and optimization, so the real-time data acquisition system can meet the requirement of adjusting the state of the vehicle, improving real-time of data acquisition and processing. Finally, it indicates the development direction and prospect of data acquisition system based on LabVIEW.

Methods for the Efficient Energy Management in a Smart Mini Greenhouse

To solve the problem of energy efficiency of modern enterprise it is necessary to reduce energy consumption.One of the possible ways is proposed in this research.A multi-level hierarchical system for energy efficiency management of the enterprise is designed,it is based on the modular principle providing rapid modernization.The novelty of the work is the development of new and improvement of the existing methods and models,in particular:1)models for dynamic analysis of IT tools for data acquisition and processing(DAAP)in multilevel energy management systems,which are based on Petri nets;2)method of synthesis of DAAP tools in energy efficiency management information systems(EEMIS)of the enterprise which provides a reduction in hardware and time costs from 10%to 40%;3)method of conflict-free data exchange determining the minimum memory speed for the synthesis of realtime exchanges,it reduces the cost and energy consumption;4)method of calculating the signal of postsynaptic excitation of neural elements decreases the processing time of technological data two or more times.The proposed methods,models and tools have been tested while implementing the EEMIS of the intelligent mini-greenhouse,as a result,energy efficiency has increased by 12%-25%(depending on season and peculiarities of growing plants).

An emerging technology-wearable wireless sensor networks with applications in human health condition monitoring

Monitoring health conditions over a human body to detect anomalies is a multidisciplinary task,which involves anatomy,artificial intelligence,and sensing and computing networks.A wearable wireless sensor network(WWSN)turns into an emerging technology,which is capable of acquiring dynamic data related to a human body’s physiological conditions.The collected data can be applied to detect anomalies in a patient,so that he or she can receive an early alert about the adverse trend of the health condition,and doctors can take preventive actions accordingly.In this paper,a new WWSN for anomaly detections of health conditions has been proposed,system architecture and network has been discussed,the detecting model has been established and a set of algorithms have been developed to support the operation of the WWSN.The novelty of the detected model lies in its relevance to chronobiology.Anomalies of health conditions are contextual and assessed not only based on the time and spatial correlation of the collected data,but also based on mutual relations of the data streams from different sources of sensors.A new algorithm is proposed to identify anomalies using the following procedure:(1)collected raw data is preprocessed and transferred into a set of directed graphs to represent the correlations of data streams from different sensors;(2)the directed graphs are further analyzed to identify dissimilarities and frequency patterns;(3)health conditions are quantified by a coefficient number,which depends on the identified dissimilarities and patterns.The effectiveness and reliability of the proposed WWSN has been validated by experiments in detecting health anomalies including tachycardia,arrhythmia and myocardial infarction.

A high-level architecture for a Geomatics Informatization Technology System: the Chinese case

China will,as a component of‘Digital Earth,’establish a Geomatics Informatization Technology System(GITS)which is characterized by real-time acquisition,automatic processing,networking service,and socialized application with fundamental geographical information.The basic composition of GITS is proposed.GITS covers four layers and six platforms.The four layers are data acquisition,processing,management,and application and services.The six platforms are informatic geodetic datum,high-precision geo-spatial data acquisition,automatic geo-spatial data processing,grid-based geo-spatial information management,comprehensive geo-spatial information sharing and service,and geo-spatial information integration and application.The informatic geodetic datum platform provides a carrier for all the four layers and a base for the other five platforms.The high-precision geo-spatial data acquisition platform belongs to the acquisition layer.The automatic geo-spatial data processing platform belongs to the processing layer.The grid-based geo-spatial information management platform belongs to the management layer and is a bridge connecting geospatial data acquisition and spatial information sharing service and integrated applications.The comprehensive geo-spatial information sharing and service platform belongs to the application and service layer.Finally,this paper presents thoughts for constructing GITS.
