The ability to continuously monitor the vehicular movements of potential terrorists, or any potential criminal for that matter, presents an enormous advantage to law enforcement agencies.
Advances in wireless communication, in computing and in sensing devices, along with the cost reduction of these technologies, have prompted and accelerated the development of Cyber-Physical Systems that adopt the Internet of Things paradigm to provide several types of services, such as surveillance, weather monitoring, management of vehicular traffic, control of production activities, etc.
Referenced pavement condition data for this study is also obtained using Vehicular Intelligent Monitoring System (VIMS)[13].
They are capable of collecting, processing, storing, and transferring information from one node to another, and they perform a lot of tasks, including monitoring temperature, pressure, humidity, vehicular motion state, noise levels, and so on.
Since MANETs can be rapidly accessed and flexibly deployed, it has revealed a growth potential in applications such as battlefield monitoring, disaster recovering, emergency handling, vehicular networking, etc.
As such, DSRC is capable of implementing the physical layer of an Internet Protocol (IP) bearer based network designed to facilitate the monitoring and coordination of portside vehicular traffic.
The proposed hardware platform has been implemented and experimentally validated and characterized in vehicular applications to monitor and communicate specific environmental parameters in a heavy transport fleet.
In particular the Toluene and Benzene concentrations ratio in the first and third sources profiles are bigger than 2 (except for San Nicola sport stadium monitoring site): in literature this value is associated to vehicular traffic emissions.
The main objective of the present study was to develop an integrated ecotoxicologic approach with the land snail Helix aspersa for monitoring both accumulation and toxicologic effects caused by urban pollutants, including vehicular exhausts and other chemicals such as those associated with tire manufacturing, which can be transported by PM from the road surface.
The amount of data generated in vehicular ad hoc networks is massive due to on-board monitoring of vehicles and relevant spatiotemporal data acquisition.
