Authors:-Esther Grace M , S. Sobitha Ahila , P. Hari Kumar
Abstract:-An intelligent cardiac auscultation is the process of monitoring the heart beat signals variations of a patient monitoring system for monitoring the patient’s health condition automatically through sensors based connected networks in Internet of Things (IoT). It detects the critical condition of a patient by processing sensors data and instantly provides push notification to doctors. There is no process of monitoring of a particular cardiac disease which can lead to loss of life due to improper checkups and not following the lifestyle proposed by the doctor. In our proposed system, coronary heart disease monitoring based on wireless sensors are used to monitor cardiac patient for 24/7 without any human intervention using piezoelectric sensors which is used to measure artery thickness by the flow of blood vessels and extract the waveform. The waveform is classified into normal and abnormal waveform. This abnormal waveform is sent to mobile application where it receives the data and plots the signal curves in real-time. The mobile application acts as the display device and has the capability to upload data to a cloud platform for further analysis and intimation is sent to the cardiologist. The authorized Cardiologist can get access to the cloud platform to get the dataset and results via any peripheral devices which are equipped with specific software and diagnose the results.

Abstract: Analyze the basic characteristics of Wi-Fi-based property between base stations and vehicles in urban settings. The amount between a vehicle returning into and going out of vary of a base station is commonly marred by intermittent periods of terribly poor property. A scheme, known as SWIMMING, is planned to support seamless and economical Wi Fi-based web access for moving vehicles. An unique methodology known as locationbased delivery (LBD) is planned, that associates SMS and GPS, is planned, and additional, a practical system to realize precise location chase is developed. LBD chiefly applies the subsequent two planned techniques: Location prediction and dynamic threshold. Location prediction is achieved by victimisation the present location, moving speed, and bearing of the target to predict its next location. Once the gap among the anticipated location and also the actual location exceeds an exact threshold, the target broadcasts a brief message to the hunter to update its prevailing location. The dynamic threshold maintains the placement chase efficiency and variety of short messages on the support of the moving speed of the target.

Vol 3, No 1 (2018): An Innovative Approach for Online Food Order Management System
Authors: Anshika Srivastava, Anjali Baranwal, Bindu Rani
Abstract: Restaurants are one of the favorite premises .An online food ordering is a integrated process in fast food Restaurants to offer choice of food from menu, cooked and served or packaged hot to satisfy customer to immediately make orders on their ownselves. Customers can also call the restaurant to pack in advance or to deliver the food item but sometimes restaurants run out of certain items. The existing system lacks the feature to use Remote GPS tracker such that restaurant managers are auto updated about the location of the customer before reaching the restaurant. We propose a complete system to easily manage online menu where items update as per the availability of food and prices. The Customer views the products, register and place the order. The system administrator adds and manages user accounts and the Manager manages product and orders. The Kitchen meal deliverable deals with pending deliveries .The proposed system is developed using Android platform which is open source software and built in data connection modules. It also decreases labour rates to replace mobile phones to book order and table unlike employees who come to take order and payments .In advent of food consumption problems like obesity, overeating etc. ,he proposed system will show food items with nutrition based searches showing ingredients of the food items.

Abstract: This paper is prepared with a keen focus on the requirement of blood in emergency situation. Our project blood bank locator is an android application for mobile which bridges the gap between the person who needs blood and is in search of a donor. Our application involves the functionality of user which creates an account in the app and then login by using the same user id and password. The registration asks for the information such as first name, last name, gender, email and password. After login the page with two options is activated: new donor and donor search. There is a GPS application integrated with the application which helps the user to track down the location. In the search donor, there application asks for blood group and the GPS enters the location. The result search shows the donors living in that area only that are registered. In the new donor, the application requires name, mobile, blood type, and locality. The information is added to the database system. The database used in our application is Firebase which is cloud real time database. The information storage in firebase is not in table like format. The search result provides information such as name, phone no. and blood group. The mobile application always updates the location which makes it easy for the user the track the donor. The goal of our application is to find the suitable donor as soon as possible for the receiver.

Vol 2, No 3 (2017): Using Embedded Linux to Implement a Secured System
Authors: P. Sivakumar, R. S. Sandhya Devi, B. Vinod
Abstract: Now a day’s Security is a major concern in case of Embedded Systems since almost all the systems are to be connected with the Internet. Embedded system serves as one of crucial components needed for various applications and services in pervasive computing environment. Security problems related to embedded systems directly influence credibility of these applications and services. In order to effectively eliminate weaknesses in current embedded systems and strongly enhance safety practices of these systems. With the everincreasing presence of Linux implementations in embedded devices, there is a strong demand for defining the security requirements and augmenting, enhancing, and hardening the operating environment. In most of the systems this issue is addressed with the help of proprietary software and operating systems which ultimately increase the cost of product. Since the proprietary software is having its own advantage cost incurred by that is much when compared to open source. Hence in the embedded device development the very good alternative is the Linux operating system which is royalty free and the source code is freely available which comes under the GNU public license. The security of Linux is already proven and is currently used in millions of devices. Hence the embedded devices with the Linux operating system is Low cost, highly secured and can be designed in a short span of time. Thus it reduces the cost of the product. In this paper the Linux kernel is configured for the ARM core based System on Chip and an authentication system is implemented. The host development environment is the Ubuntu Linux. The kernel image is cross compiled using the GCC compiler.

Vol 2, No 2 (2017): Android Application Based Gas Leakage Notifier
Authors: Aishwarya R, Akshath R Hegde, Ashwini N, Mohammed Thavaf A R, Anitha C
Abstract: Gas leakage is a phenomenon which can possibly dispense significant harms to lives and property. Detection of gas leakage and informing the concerned individuals is frequently the first and the most imperative stride in keeping away from any casualties. Already accessible products in the market neglect to convey the notice to clients who are situated elsewhere, and, offer next to zero flexibility. The best answer for this is to use the capacity of the idea called "Internet of Things", which means whereby remote sensors, cloud storage, and convenient terminal gadgets can be utilized to alarm the client with respect to a gas leakage. This paper introduces such a method, wherein the client is kept mindful of the leakage status through an Android application and cellular network based SMS. The proposed solution is highly flexible and cost effective.
