To improve the monitoring system of rock and soil engineering slope, based on the technology of Internet of things, the monitoring of rock and soil slope was studied. A multi parameter remote monitoring system based on the technology of Internet of things was proposed.By combining GPS locator with several sensor instruments, many parameters, such as ground displacement, deep displacement, groundwater level, stress and strain, were collected.Through the Internet of things technology, the key data were transmitted to the monitoring room. The wireless transmission of the monitoring data was completed. Using information fusion technology, database management and Web service, the monitoring data were classified and managed.Through the data analysis, the reliability theory was used to predict the slope. Finally, the rock and soil engineering slope monitoring based on the Internet of things was verified.The results showed that the stability of the slope was influenced by many factors. At the same time, the effectiveness and accuracy of monitoring data were important for slope prediction. To sum up, the reliability theory is more suitable for the stability analysis of the local slope and the section.

Internet of Things (IOT) has found broad applications and has drawn more and more attention from researchers. At the same time, IOT also presents many challenges, one of which is node localization, i.e. how to determine the geographical position of each sensor node. Algorithms have been proposed to solve the problem. A popular algorithm is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) because it is simple to implement and needs relatively less computation. However, PSO is easily trapped into local optima and gives premature results. In order to improve the PSO algorithm, this paper proposes the EHPSO algorithm based on Novel Particle Swarm Optimization (NPSO) and Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization (HPSO). The EHPSO algorithm applies the principle of best neighbor of each particle to the HPSO algorithm. Simulation results indicate that EHPSO outperforms HPSO and NPSO in evaluating accurate node positions and improves convergence by avoiding being trapped into local optima.
物联网(Internet of Things, IOT)有着广泛的应用,越来越受到研究者的关注。同时,物联网也提出了许多挑战,其中之一就是节点定位,即如何确定每个传感器节点的地理位置。已经提出了一些算法来解决这个问题。粒子群优化算法(Particle Swarm Optimization, PSO)实现简单,计算量相对较少,是一种比较流行的算法。然而,粒子群算法很容易陷入局部最优,给出的结果不成熟。为了改进粒子群算法,提出了基于新型粒子群算法(NPSO)和混合粒子群算法(HPSO)的EHPSO算法。EHPSO算法将各粒子的最优邻居原理应用到该算法中。仿真结果表明,EHPSO算法在准确评估节点位置方面优于HPSO算法和NPSO算法,并通过避免陷入局部最优而提高了收敛性。

Regarding the disadvantages of Wireless Sensor Networks such as random node failure, imbalanced network energy consumption, and shorter life cycle etc., the paper proposes an improved evolving model with an overall integration of fault-tolerance topology and network energy consumption, as a fusion mechanism optimizing the original node degree, generation ability and node distance in the model; it also validates the advantages of the improved model in terms of network life cycle, residual energy of node, node spacing and fault tolerance etc. by comparing the model with the optimized model of traditional sensor. With the establishment of WSNs energy consumption model, the paper evaluates the network life cycle and analyses the influence of node spacing and residual energy of node on WSNs, by adopting which as the fitness functions of the model, a scale-free fault tolerance topology evolving model with link deletion mechanism is constructed. The simulation comparison shows that the topology structure of the improved model has significant scale-free characteristics, a balanced network energy consumption and a long network life cycle; it can also effectively increase the fault tolerance and intrusion tolerance of network.

To address the node cascading failure (CF) of the wireless sensor networks (WSNs), considering such factors as node load and maximum capacity in scale-free topology, this paper establishes the WSN dynamic fault tolerant topology model based on node cascading failure, analyses the relationships between node load, topology and dynamic fault tolerance, and demonstrates the proposed model through simulation test. It studies the effects of topology parameter and load in case of random node failure in the network node cascading failure, and utilizes the theoretical derivation method to derive the structural feature of scale-free topology and the capacity limit for the WSNs large-scale cascading failure, effectively enhancing the cascading fault tolerance of traditional WSNs. The simulation test results show that, with the degree distribution parameter C increasing, the minimum network node degree will increase accordingly, and in highly intensive topology, the dynamic fault tolerance will be better; with the parameter λ increasing, the maximum degree of the network node will gradually decrease, and the degree distribution of topology structure tends to be uniform, so that the large-scale cascading failure caused by node failure will have less influence on the WSN, and further improve the dynamic fault tolerance performance of the system.

In light of the agricultural development in China, more attention has been paid to the studies about precision agriculture. The environmental factors such as temperature-humidity and soil humidity are the key influencing factors on crop growth, therefore, how to rapidly and accurately acquire the environmental information of crop growth and learn about their real-time growing environment is of vital importance. The wireless sensor networks (WSN) can make real-time environmental information acquisition as well as communication and processing of network environmental data. Based on this, the RSSI range-based positioning method was optimized in this paper in order to greatly improve its precision. To be specific, in this study, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was firstly applied in the hybrid mutation strategy to make more accurate node positioning and significantly improve the evolutionary performance by enlarging the hunting zone; besides, through the use of WSN, the influencing parameters on crop growth such as soil humidity, and temperature-humidity etc. would be monitored; finally, to realize the precise location and derive the unseeded nodes, GPS was applied for accurate positioning, and the intelligence algorithm was adopted to determine the coordinate position of unknown nodes. At last, the actual field test indicates that the designed monitoring system in this paper satisfies the requirements for precise measurement, playing a positive role in promoting the development of precision agriculture.

This paper aims to create an efficient container yard management system. For this purpose, a gantry crane management subsystem was designed and implemented for container information management based on the wireless sensor network (WSN). The system consists of a set of desktop management software and three different types sensor nodes, and locates the container via the two-way symmetrical time-of-arrival (TS-TOA) positioning approach. In this way, the subsystem enhances the accuracy of container positioning without elevating hardware cost. Through the implementation of the hardware and software systems, it is proved that the user can successfully locate the container, read and update cargo information, and complete similar operations through human-computer interaction in the desktop management software. Overall, this research greatly improves the efficiency of container management at the port, and helps to reduce the operational cost and port congestion.

For this purpose, a gantry crane management subsystem was designed and implemented for container information management based on the wireless sensor network (WSN). The system consists of a set of desktop management software and three different types sensor nodes, and locates the container via the two-way symmetrical time-of-arrival (TS-TOA) positioning approach. In this way, the subsystem enhances the accuracy of container positioning without elevating hardware cost. Through the implementation of the hardware and software systems, it is proved that the user can successfully locate the container, read and update cargo information, and complete similar operations through human-computer interaction in the desktop management software.
