Today, as more and more families have working members, homes are being left unmonitored for several hours each day. There is no provision for emergency alerts, automation mechanisms or monitoring facilities for the home environment conditions. There is immense potential for technological development in this direction especially because of the advancement in the Internet of Things (IoT) [1]. It is possible to monitor home environment conditions using sensors to detect temperature, humidity, light, sound and gas concentrations in the air. It is also possible to monitor customised situations such as water tanks being full, dustbins being overloaded and refrigerators left open. The need of the hour is an integrated solution to be able to monitor the environment conditions from a single mobile application [7]. Some degree of automation to control the home environment conditions along with notifications in case of emergency situations such as gas leaks also needs to be part of this single solution. This case study paper is taken to provide a single integrated solution to the above mentioned problem of being unable to keep homes monitored for several hours in the day. The concept is customized to monitor these conditions and notify the user on his mobile application remotely. Most environment variables can be monitored by opening and refreshing the application. Emergency situations and customized alerts are intimidated to the user by sending push notifications to his mobile device such that he can be made aware of any important conditions immediately. The sensor data is stored on the cloud such that it can be scalable and the data can later be used for analytical purposes as well. The concept worked in this paper is a much-needed solution in today’s world. When most men and women are out of home during the day time, this solution can alert them in case of a gas leak, overloaded water tanks and can also help them save power by remotely switching on and off the electrical device present at home. It is an integrated and customizable solution to cater the varying needs of users. It helps for monitoring the entire house on the user’s mobile device from any part of the world. © IAEME Publication.

A case study: Home environment monitoring system using internet of things

This review paper is concerned about need of fingerprint along with exploring the different patterns of fingerprint by quoting the appropriate work for this assumed need. This work continues with focussing on reviewing the prior works related to fingerprint enhancement based on several key ideas. Some of the key idea includes applying wavelets along with specific filtering mechanism, achieving fingerprint image enhancement using Gabor filter based enhancement algorithm in wavelet domain, image enhancement using histogram equalization, achieving the principle of energy consumption while performing enhancement of fingerprint images. © Research India Publications.

Necessity of different patterns of fingerprint and its applications: A study

Web services are the services or applications provided by a service provider to the web users over the internet. The cloud computing technology evolved from web services as a way to provide resources and infrastructure sharing and found to be a most successful technology for resource utilization with high availability and efficiency. While web services provided a way for availing services through internet the support for platform and hardware sharing is limited. Cloud has been gaining popularity due to its efficiency in sharing and utilization of resource. But the shared in environment raises serious security concerns in the cloud technology. The security issues in cloud make it vulnerable to intrusive attacks [6]. Several efficient methods provide faster detection [1] [4] [5] but the attack may proliferate before any remedial action could be taken. This paper focuses on augmenting a solution to the existing detection technologies that could reduce the impact of an intrusive attack. © Research India Publications.

Uncertainty and impreciseness are well handled by the rough set theory which was introduced by Pawlak [1, 2]. The rough set theory was extended to multigranular based rough sets by Qian, Y.H and Liang, J.Y [3, 4]. In order to more widely apply the rough set theory in practical applications Qian et al. extended Pawlak's single granulation rough set model to a multigranulation rough set model where the set approximations were defined by multiple equivalence relation on the universe. There are two types of multigranulations have been found in literature. After the introduction of the second one these are now called as optimistic multigranulation which was introduced first and pessimistic multigranulation. The properties of both optimistic and pessimistic multigranular rough sets have been studied and established, some of the inclusion property of pessimistic multigranular rough sets can be replaced with equalities not by sufficient conditions but with the help of other properties in [10]. Also some of inclusion properties of optimistic multigranular rough sets cannot be replaced by equalities was provided with examples in [10]. There were eight relations between the upper and lower multigranular approximations of union and intersections of rough sets found in [10] and in that paper the proof was given to show that out of eight relations two can be replaced with equalities and for other six cases were supported with examples to show that proper inclusions hold true. In this paper database based validation for the replacement of some of the inclusion property with equalities is provided. Also in this paper for the other appropriate inclusion properties of optimistic and pessimistic multigranular rough sets that cannot be replaced by equalities is validated with a faculty database table with assumed data. © Research India Publications.
