Embedded systems development usually starts with hardware engineering based on specific requirements of the systems. These requirements are mainly derived from the needs of the not yet developed software to be executed on the system. This process is predictive and many iterations are thus needed, as new requirements often arise during the software development period. In the future, the market will demand more and more sophisticated embedded systems with a much reduced time to market. It will thus be inevitable that system prototypes and series products will need to be created as fast as possible. To enable this, we propose a top-down approach termed papagenoX, dealing with the question of “How to generate all layers X of the embedded systems stack including hardware and reconfigurable logic units from application software?”. The present work is a work in progress and deals with the definition of the research questions and several ideas and concepts of how to fundamentally solve them. Hence, it aims at introducing ideas to create a generator for embedded systems electronics, reconfigurable logic and software.

Enhancing residential buildings energy efficiency has become a critical goal to take up current challenges of human comfort, urbanization growth and the consequent energy consumption increase. In a context of integrated smart infrastructures, sensor networks offer a relevant solution to support building energy consumption monitoring, operation and prediction. The amount of accessible data with such networks also opens new prospects to better consider key parameters such as human behaviour and to lead to more efficient energy retrofit of existing buildings. However, sensor networks planning and implementation in general, and in existing buildings in particular, is a particularly complex task facing many challenges and affecting the performances of such a promising solution. In the present paper, we report on a field experiment of a sensor network deployment involving more than 250 sensors in three collective residential buildings in Paris region for the evaluation of a deep energy retrofit. More specifically, we describe the whole process of the sensor network design and roll-out and highlight the main critical aspects in such complex process. We also provide a feedback after several months of the sensor network operation and preliminary analysis of collected data. Reported results path the way for an efficient and optimized design and deployment of sensor networks for energy and indoor environment quality monitoring in existing buildings.

: Our paper was inspired by the recent Society 5.0 initiative of the Japanese Government that seeks to create a sustainable human-centric society by putting to work recent advances in technology: sensor networks, edge computing, IoT ecosystems, AI, Big Data, robotics, to name just a few. The main contribution of this work is a vision of how these technological advances can contribute, directly or indirectly, to making Society 5.0 reality. For this purpose we build on a recently-proposed concept of Marketplace of Services that, in our view, will turn out to be one of the cornerstones of Society 5.0. Instead of referring to Society 5.0 directly, throughout the paper we shall define a generic Smart Community that implements a subset of the goals of Society 5.0. We show how digital technology in conjunction with the Marketplace of services can contribute to enabling and promoting sustainable Smart Communities. Very much like Society 5.0, our Smart Community can provide a large number of diverse and evolving human-centric services offered as utilities and sold on a metered basis. The services offered by the Smart Community can be synthesized, using the latest technology (e.g. 3D printing, robotics, Big Data analytics, AI, etc.), from a hierarchy of raw resources or other services. The residents of the Smart Community can purchase as much or as little of these services as they find suitable to their needs and are billed according to a pay-as-you-go business model.

Negative emotions such as anxiety, frustration, or apathy can have an impact on the brain capability in terms of memory and cognitive functions. This is particularly visible in Alzheimer’s disease where the participants can have a deterioration of their brain connections which are often the cause of the disorders detected in Alzheimer's participants. It seems important to reduce these symptoms to allow better access to memory and cognitive abilities. Immersion in Virtual Reality is a means of providing the participant with a sense of presence in an environment that isolates them from external factors that can induce negative emotions. The virtual travel is a method that can mobilize the attention of the subject and revive their interest and curiosity. We present here, an experiment in which a participant is immersed in a virtual train using a virtual headset and EEG device to measure the brain signals. To measure the impact of this train on the memory and cognitive functions, some cognitive tasks have been included before and after the travel. Experiments have been done on participants with mild cognitive disorder. Preliminary results show an increase of memory functions and in certain cases of cognitive functions, while negative emotions are reduced.

Ecosystem preservation and production maximisation are competing objectives in agriculture. Reducing the need of undifferentiated or late interventions on the crops would reduce the number of disease treatments needed, as well as the consumption of water and fertiliser. This objective is only attainable through crop monitoring systems able to reach a single plant. Precision agriculture employ continuous and pervasive monitoring of crops, that in turn allows fast and targeted interventions. The aim of this paper is to highlight the problems that can be found in designing a wireless sensor network (WSN) able to measure environmental parameters such as relative humidity, irradiance and volatile pollutant concentration and introduces a possible solution that we named the Internet of Trees.

A comparison between the most suitable routing protocols for WSNs applied in wide agriculture scenarios is shown. The protocols, already present in literature, have been conceived to better manage the power budget of the nodes and are particularly suitable to cover the energy issues that wide agriculture scenario can request. This study aims to indicate which of the protocols eligible for this scenario is the most suitable. Comparative simulation test will be shown.

This work validates the application of a low-cost inertial tracking suit, for strength exercise monitoring. The procedure includes an offline processing for body-IMU calibration and an online tracking and identification of lower body motion. We proposed an optimal movement pattern for the body-IMU calibration method from our previous work. Here, in order to reproduce real extreme situations, the focus is on the movements with high acceleration. For such movements, an optimal orientation tracking approach is introduced, which requires no accelerometer measurements and it thus minimizes error due to outliers. The online tracking algorithm is based on an extended Kalman filter(EKF), which estimates the position of upper and lower legs, along with hip and knee joint angles. This method applies the estimated values in the calibration process i.e. joint axes and positions, as well as biomechanical constraints of lower body. Therefore it requires no aiding sensors such as magnetometer. The algorithm is evaluated using optical tracker for two types of exercises: squat and hip abd/adduction which resulted average root mean square error(RMSE) of 9cm. Additionally, this work presents a personalized exercise identification approach, where an online template matching algorithm is applied and optimised using zero velocity crossing(ZVC) for feature extraction. This results reducing the execution time to 93% and improving the accuracy up to 33%.

Currently, most of the human activities impact the environment. Worldwide sustainable development is required to preserve a good quality of life. Energy efficiency is one of the most relevant issues that the scientific community and society must face along the next decades. This paper focuses on reviewing and noting the main factors which impact the optimization of electrical energy efficiency in Smart Buildings, including distribution, consumption analysis, strategies and management. Smart grids and smart buildings are playing a key role in the definition of the following generations of cities where the impact of energy consumption on the environment must be reduced as much as possible. Notwithstanding, all the factors impacting the production and distribution must be also taken into consideration by energy production companies and distribution companies as well. Green energies are being introduced in smart cities and buildings, only slower than required, and in general, focusing on the consumption side asking for higher performance monitoring and control techniques, and encouraging to incorporate energy harvesting initiatives to improve the overall efficiency. In this paper, the major target is pointing out all the relevant factors influencing smart building energy efficiency, up to the consumer side and, at the same time, paying attention on distribution and generation issues and, specifically, available communication standards, technologies, techniques, algorithms, which enable high performance systems to optimize energy consumption and occupant comfort.

In emergency cases related to massive accidents, environme ntal disasters, and war time, health professionals face considerable challenges due to the high number of patie nts who are in need of emergency treatment. Research works attempt to propose effective in-hospital an d pre-hospital smart emergency systems to reduce the mortality rate among the patients who desperately wait t o receive appropriate care. This paper presents a model of a timely prehospital emergency management system that can be implemented as an interface to an Internet of Things (IoT) environment. This work presents the necessary stages for prehospital emergency environments, where many factors may make the timely manage ment of emergency systems very difficult. The proposed model is based on an Algorithmic State Machine ( ASM) that can be implemented in either hardware or software, providing an embedded system interfa c for IoT. Moreover, this paper provides a timing analysis for either a single emergency event or multiple sim ultaneous emergency events. Embedded systems’ developers can use the proposed model to produce an appropri ate ehospital smart emergency solution.

Four surface acoustic waves (SAW) sensors based on sensitive layers of Fe2O3 nanoparticles, pure and combined with noble metals nanoparticles, composed an array sensor to measure ammonia in the environment. The sensor array was tested with nanostructured sensitive layers, which detected the changes of the elastic properties induced by ammonia interaction. The sensor with pure Fe2O3 nanoparticles exposed to 50 ppm of ammonia showed no significant effect, however the sensors with Fe2O3 nanoparticles combined with Au, Pt and Pd nanoparticles responded to these concentrations of this gas, which is so dangerous for the environment and the health, with a high sensitivity.
