Smart Interconnected Infrastructure for Security and Safety in Public Places

摘要

In this paper, we present work in progress on the development of an intelligent interconnected infrastructure for public security and protection domain. In contrast to other Internet of Things (IoT) frameworks, the proposed system aims to effectively combine device and human awareness to achieve situational awareness, so as to provide a protection and security environment for citizens. The emphasis is placed on tourists, by creating the appropriate infrastructure to address a set of urgent situations, such as health-related problems and missing children in overcrowded environments, supporting smart links between humans and entities on the basis of goals, and adapting device operation to comply with human objectives, profiles and privacy. The framework effectively combines state-of-the-art technologies on IoT data collection and analytics, knowledge representation and interoperability, crowdsourcing, data fusion and decision-making.
