This paper presents the development of an expert system for monitoring and control of an oil production facility. The objectives of developing an expert system for the oil production facility are to monitor the Important processing parameters in different sections of the facilities and to control battery operations in real time. By providing consistent, fast, and reliable decision support to operators, the expert system can be used for automated monitoring and control of a petroleum production facility located south of Regina in Saskatchewan, Canada. The system was implemented in Visual Basic 6.0.

In this paper, an attempt has been made to build and test self-configuring weather sensor networks and internet based observation system to gather atmospheric data. The aim is to provide integrated or real-time weather information in standard form using network data access protocol. This system was successfully developed to record weather information both digital as well as visual using sensor network and web-enabled surveillance cameras. These data were transformed by network based data access protocol to access and utilize for public domain. The competed system has been successfully utilized to monitor different types of weather. The results show that this is one of the most useful weather monitoring system.

The Monitoring System developed in this study was designed to help manage the recreational forests by gathering data on visitors' profiles and their opinions about recreational use and related facilities, This data could identify for changing situations in forest recreation demand as well as providing information on planning the management and use of the forest areas in advance. The standardized questionnaire had contained visitor profiles, activities, distribution of use by area, distribution us by time, duration of the visit, expenditure of visitors and information on visitor satisfaction and motivation. Also, the questionnaire had included the evaluations visitors' perception of facilities in order to identify the importance and performance of the various facilities, such as recreational and educational facilities, accomodations, directional signs as well as infrastructure. The monitoring system was developed in the object-oriented programming (OOP) environment. Microsoft Visual Basic 6,0 for the program language, Microsoft Access, and Excel program were used to develop the system. The monitoring system was composed of data input, database, and data analysis system, Once data were put into data input system, it automatically transferred to database, and it eventually produced the results of statistical analysis with one step procedure. This study was integrated with facilities and visitor monitoring system to identify the visitor impact at the recreational forests. In addition, this monitoring system would provide necessary and useful background information for management on recreational use of natural resources in a practical manner.

기존의 Ontology를 이용한 이미지 검색 시스템이나. 간단한 구조를 가진 메타데이터 기반의 분산 이미지 검색 시스템들의 단정들을 극복하기 위해 다양한 이미지 제공자들의 자율성을 보장하면서, 시맨틱 기반의 이미지 검색을 지원하는 분산 시각미디어 검색 프레임워크가 제안되었다. 하지만 제안된 프레임워크에서는 Visual Media Data를 제공하는 Provider와 클라이언트의 Query를 처리해서 Provider에게 전달하는 Broker 사이의 연결 상태에 대한 신뢰성이 보장되지 않았고, 다수의 클라이언트 접속에 의해 발생하는 Broker 내부 컴포넌트들의 Overhead 문제를 효과적으로 해결할 수 없었다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 프레임워크에 Monitoring 시스템을 도입하여 Broker 내부 컴포넌트들의 수행시간을 측정하여 저장함으로써, 다수의 클라이언트 요구에 의해서 Overhead가 발생하는 컴포넌트들을 Monitoring 할 수 있고, Provider의 연결 상태를 정기적으로 확인하여 Broker 내부에 등록되어 있는 Provider의 도메인 리스트를 서버 상태가 확인된 리스트로 업데이트 시켜줌으로써 연결 상태에 대한 신뢰성을 제공할 수 있도록 하기 위한 Monitoring 시스템을 제안한다.

In this study, fault diagnosis and monitoring of serial wound pre-engaged starter motors have been carried out. Starter motors are DC motors that enable internal combustion engine (ICE) to run. In case of breakdown of a starter motor, internal combustion engine can not be worked. Starter motors have vital importance on internal combustion engines. Kohonen network based fault diagnosis system is proposed for fault diagnosis and monitoring of starter motors. A graphical user interface (GUI) software has been developed by using Visual Basic 6.0 for fault diagnosis. Six faults, seen in starter motors, have been diagnosed successfully by using the developed fault diagnosis system. GUI software makes it possible to diagnose the faults in starter motors before they occur by keeping fault records of past occurrences.

An investigation of tunnel linings is performed at two tunnels in the US using complimentary noncontact techniques: air-coupled ground penetrating radar (GPR), and a vehicle-mounted scanning system (SPACETEC) that combines laser, visual, and infrared thermography scanning methods. This paper shows that a combination of such techniques can maximize inspection coverage in a comprehensive and efficient manner. Since ground-truth is typically not available in public tunnel field evaluations, the noncontact techniques used are compared with two reliable in-depth contact nondestructive testing methods: ground-coupled GPR and ultrasonic tomography. The noncontact techniques are used to identify and locate the reinforcement mesh, structural steel ribs, internal layer interfaces, shallow delamination, and tile debonding. It is shown that this combination of methods can be used synergistically to provide tunnel owners with a comprehensive and efficient approach for monitoring tunnel lining conditions.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), particularly remote monitoring, is an emerging field with great potential to help infrastructure owners obtain more and up-to-date knowledge of their structures. The methodology could provide supplemental information to guide the frequency and extent of visual inspections, and the possible need for maintenance. The instrumentation for a SHM system needs to be developed with longevity and the objectives for the system in mind. Sensors need to be selected for reliability and durability, sited where they provide the maximum information for the objectives, and where they can be accessed and replaced should the need arise over the monitoring period. With the rapid changes now occurring with sensors and software, flexibility needs to be in place to allow the system to be upgraded over time. Damage detection needs to be considered in terms of the type of damage that needs to be detected, informing maintenance requirements, and how detection can be achieved. Current vibration analysis techniques appear not yet to have achieved the necessary sensitivity for that purpose. Societal factors will influence the design of a SHM system in terms of the sophistication of the instrumentation and methodology employed.

This paper deals with research on innovative systems using Python-based artificial intelligence technology in the field of plant growth monitoring. The importance of monitoring and analyzing the health status and growth environment of plants in real time contributes to improving the efficiency and quality of crop production. This paper proposes a method of processing and analyzing plant image data using computer vision and deep learning technologies. The system was implemented using Python language and the main deep learning framework, TensorFlow, PyTorch. A camera system that monitors plants in real time acquires image data and provides it as input to a deep neural network model. This model was used to determine the growth state of plants, the presence of pests, and nutritional status. The proposed system provides users with information on plant state changes in real time by providing monitoring results in the form of visual or notification. In addition, it is also used to predict future growth conditions or anomalies by building data analysis and prediction models based on the collected data. This paper is about the design and implementation of Python-based plant growth monitoring systems, data processing and analysis methods, and is expected to contribute to important research areas for improving plant production efficiency and reducing resource consumption.

In display systems employing analog monitors, the tearing artifact such that an window screen is divided into two parts showing different scenes can occur when the change of scenes in the moving pictures is very fast, but the frame buffer's refresh rate does not match the monitor's scanning frequency. It is especially noticeable at high frame rate. DVR system is a recently popularized visual monitoring system. The tearing artifacts becomes more serious since the frame buffer's refresh rate is very high due to the requirement of multi channel display in the DVR. In this paper, we propose an improved display system for windows-based DVR systems which prevents the tearing artifacts without deterioration of display speed performance. The efficiency of the proposed display system is verified through experiments.
