With the advances in sensor and data transfer technologies, the usage areas of Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) systems have been expanded in the public and private sectors. In public safety, ALPR systems are used to monitor and control traffic data at both individual and collective levels. To build an efficient sensor network, the locations of ALPR systems should be determined optimally. This study provides an approach to determine optimal locations of ALPR systems that maximize network coverage consisting of two measures: i) vehicle coverage and ii) road coverage. The former represents the daily average vehicle flow whereas the latter stands for the number of road-links covered. The relative importance of vehicle and road coverages are taken into consideration, and optimal solutions under various scenarios are presented. A close neighbor constraint is introduced to avoid inefficient distribution of ALPR systems on the network. A case study with numerical examples designed for two cities in Turkey is provided. The centralized and decentralized solutions are compared against the current state, and the results show that the network coverage increases substantially in the centralized case.

Adaptable Safety and Security in V2X Systems VİLLARREAL VASQUEZ, Miguel; BHARGAVA, Bharat; Angın, Pelin (2017-06-30) With the advances in the areas of mobile computing and wireless communications, V2X systems have become a promising technology enabling deployment of applications providing road safety, traffic efficiency and infotainment. Due to their increasing popularity, V2X networks have become a major target for attackers, making them vulnerable to security threats and network conditions, and thus affecting the safety of passengers, vehicles and roads. Existing research in V2X does not effectively address the safety, ...
Fuzzy Decision Fusion for Single Target Classification in Wireless Sensor Networks Gok, Sercan; Yazıcı, Adnan; Coşar, Ahmet; George, Roy (2010-07-23) With the advances in technology, low cost and low footprint sensors are being used more and more commonly. Especially for military applications wireless sensor networks (WSN) have become an attractive solution as they have great use for avoiding deadly danger in combat. For military applications, classification of a target in a battlefield plays an important role. A wireless sensor node has the ability to sense the raw signal data in battlefield, extract the feature vectors from sensed signal and produce a ...
Energy-Aware Data Delivery Framework for Safety-Oriented Mobile IoT Al-Turjman, Fadi (2018-01-01) The proliferation of wireless multimedia sensor networks has given rise to intelligent transportation systems as a mobile data-sharing model. This vision can be extended under the umbrella of the mobile Internet of Things to include versatile resources, such as smartphones, radio frequency identification tags, and sensors on roads that can be utilized in emergency situations. The facilitation of such a vision faces key challenges in terms of interoperability, resource management and energy consumption. In t...
