Construction IT convergency proposes advanced management abilities of a construction project. Sensing data provided by various sensor technologies can be utilized for diverse management areas. This study analyzes required functions of sensors for implementing time, cost, safety and quality management, focusing on the ground works including excavation, pipe installation, retaining wall etc. Therefore, this study first generates essential management areas, analyzes cutting-edge sensor technologies appropriated for the areas, and finally proposes a matrix system that represents relationships between the management areas and sensor technologies, The proposed system is expected to reinforce construction management abilities by integrating sensor technologies.

This paper introduces a multi-purpose smart fusion sensor. Normally, this type of sensor can contribute to energy savings specifically related to lighting and heating/air conditioning systems by detecting individuals in an office building. If a fire occurs, the sensor can provide information regarding the presence and location of residents in the building to a management center. The system consists of four sensors: a thermopile sensor for detecting heat energy, an ultrasonic sensor for measuring the distance of objects from the sensor, a fire detection sensor, and a passive infrared sensor for detecting temperature change. The system has a wireless communication module to provide the management center with control information for lighting and heating/air conditioning systems. We have also demonstrated the usefulness of the proposed system by applying it to a real environment.

Process Control Systems (PCSs) or Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems have recently been added to the already wide collection of wireless sensor networks applications. The PCS/SCADA environment is somewhat more amenable to the use of heavy cryptographic mechanisms such as public key cryptography than other sensor application environments. The sensor nodes in the environment, however, are still open to devastating attacks such as node capture, which makes designing a secure key management challenging. Recently, Nilsson et al. proposed a key management scheme for PCS/SCADA, which was claimed to provide forward and backward secrecies. In this paper, we define four different types of adversaries or attackers in wireless sensor network environments in order to facilitate the evaluation of protocol strength. We then analyze Nilsson et al. 's protocol and show that it does not provide forward and backward secrecies against any type of adversary model.

Presently, safety management of facilities is conducted as a site-oriented safety inspection, but depending on the facilities, there are difficulties in access to the site, and the cost and time of inspection are inefficient due to excessive reliance on human resources. Therefore, the necessity of sensor-based safety management is being raised to ensure the safety of the facility at all times, and various studies on sensor safety management are being conducted, but the research on verification of practicality is still insufficient. Therefore, the improvement points were presented through analysis of domestic and international studies, and additional processes for setting sensor attachment location and threshold were derived by analyzing the H city sensor safety management process, and practicality of sensor safety management was verified through sensor data measurement values. It is expected that efficient, sensor-based facility safety management will be possible if clear criteria and ongoing practicality verification for the additional processes presented in this study should be carried out in the future.

In this paper, we define EMRA-based USN metadata to describe sensor device, sensor node, and sensor network information at the application level. And the proposed method for effectively storing and retrieving USN metadata based on EMRA uses agent technology. As the sensor metadata proposed in this paper is based on SensorML, interoperability can be maintained in the USN environment, and the metadata management system can be directly utilized for metadata management in USN middleware or applications.

System management application system is one of the most interesting fields in Ubiquitous Sensor Networks. It conforms to the property of Ubiquitous Sensor Networks very well, and it is the closest application for commercial use. We have two kinds of system management technology, such as the one which is accessed by web browser at anytime, anywhere and another one which is for local accessed system. In this paper, our purpose is implementation of system management application system which provides Mesh Sensor Networks topology with IP based agent platform and system management server. Furthermore we introduce the functions used for our recent implementation and propose several future issues about system management application system.

In this paper, we analyses of Key Management Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks in Wireless Sensor Networks. Wireless sensor networks have a wide spectrum of civil military application that call for security, target surveillance in hostile environments. Typical sensors possess limited computation, energy, and memory resources; therefore the use of vastly resource consuming security mechanism is not possible. In this paper, we propose a cryptography key management protocol, which is based on identity based symmetric keying.

Recent application range of sensor networks is becoming diverse. It means collected sensor data types are becoming diverse too. These sensor data have their own characteristics. Thus achieving energy efficiency, existing sensor network management policy consider their own characteristics. However, it is inefficient to apply the existing network management schemes for controlling such kind of data at the same time. Because, existing network management schemes considered one type of data only. Therefore, we propose a novel routing scheme that is able to efficient energy conservation through effective data controlling on multi-sensor application environment.

One of the key technical challenges of wireless sensor network (WSN) is location management of sensor nodes. Typical node location management methods use GPS, ultrasonic sensors or RSSI. In this paper we propose a new location management method which adopts regression analysis of RSSI measurement to improve the accuracy of sensor node position estimation. We also evaluated the performance of proposed method by comparing the experimental results with existing scheme. According to the results, our proposed method, LM-RAR, shows better accuracy than existing location management scheme using RSSI and Friis' equation.

For factory automation using force/torque control, we need a networked-force management system as well as good force sensing and force generation. In this paper, we present a web-based force management system including 6-axis force/torque sensing system. Performance of the force-torque sensor is affected significantly by analog noise that is included in a sensor signal, and the noise should be reduced appropriately to obtain an adequate performance of the sensor. Moreover, the sensor itself should be convenient to install to a real application system. It should be compact in size and also easy to wire in real situation. In this viewpoint, we developed usb-based compact sensor system which is well communicated using web between two computers that exist far away. Software is programmed using LabVIEW and CCS-C. PIC microcontrollers are used for implementing a compact hardware. The proposed system is verified through experimental works.
