GNSS-assisted vehicle navigation services are nowadays very common in most of the developed countries. However, most of those services are either delivered through proprietary technologies, or fall short in flexibility because of the limited capability to couple road information with real-time traffic information. This paper presents the motivations and a brief summary of a vehicle navigation service based on real-time traffic information, delivered through an open protocol that is currently under standardization in the Open Mobile Alliance forum.

A new fast monotonic blind deconvolution algorithmic method is investigated based on the constrained variational minimization framework under the periodic boundary conditions. The contributions of our methodology are that the blur operator identification and image restoration can be simultaneously optimized even under high noise level as compared to previous methods. Specifically, the monotone fast iterative shrinkage/thresholding algorithm (MFISTA) combined with the fast gradient projection (FGP) algorithm, is extended to deal with our new proposed algorithm and guarantee the monotonic convergence rate. In addition, the deblurring subproblem is enhanced by incorporating a bisection technique to effectively identify a near optimal value for the regularization parameter of the TV-Frobenius objective function quickly and accurately. Initial experimental results for gray satellite and color wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) images demonstrate the considerable performance of the proposed algorithm.

This article introduces some results obtained in monitoring of long pipelines employed in oil and gas transportation. A mobile unit for signals acquisition, processing, identification and diagnosis (MUSAPID), based on wireless sensors networks (WSN) technology was employed. The MUSAPID architecture was adapted to match the configuration of monitoring system, inspired by the national energy dispatcher. Thus, the system includes four hierarchical levels assigned to: the central dispatcher, the zonal dispatcher, the local dispatcher and the sensor nodes. The sensors are acquiring the flow and temperature of oil from the monitored pipeline. Sensors distribution along the pipeline is of in-line type. Nevertheless, a cross-link schema between sensor nodes is proposed, in order to increase the exploitation safety and to reduce false alarms sending. Two independent monitoring approaches based on comparison between values of sensors in pairs of successive nodes allow controlling the occurrence of rifts and leaks in the pipeline network. One of the approaches is unconventional and uses inter-correlation between the data acquired from two successive sensor nodes, as well as auto-correlation of temperature data. A simple logic to avoid sending false alarms was also implemented.

One of the main concerns in underground working tunnels is ensuring the safety of the workers and their equipment. Being aware of the real-time position of personnel in such harsh environment is challenging and requires a sophisticated localization system. With traditional Received Signal Strength (RSS) failing to accurately estimate the distance between nodes due to multipath effect in such long and narrow space, Radio Frequency Time-of-Flight (RF-TOF) is proved to be an alternative method for more accurate distance estimation. To reduce the communication cost, a distributed localization scheme is proposed, where a simple Newton Iteration location estimation algorithm is embedded in the blind node. Linear least square estimation is used as the initial value to accelerate the convergence of the iteration. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
