Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of a large number of small devices or nodes, called micro controller units (MCUs) and located in homes and/or offices, to be operated through the internet from anywhere, making these devices smarter and more efficient. Quality of service routing is one of the critical challenges in WSNs, especially in surveillance systems. To improve the efficiency of the network, in this article we proposes a distributed learning fractal algorithm (DFLA) to design the control topology of a wireless sensor network (WSN), whose nodes are the MCUs distributed in a physical space and which are connected to share parameters of the sensors such as concentrations of C O 2 , humidity, temperature within the space or adjustment of the intensity of light inside and outside the home or office. For this, we start defining the production rules of the L-systems to generate the Hilbert fractal, since these rules facilitate the generation of this fractal, which is a fill-space curve. Then, we model the optimization of a centralized control topology of WSNs and proposed a DFLA to find the best two nodes where a device can find the highly reliable link between these nodes. Thus, we propose a software defined network (SDN) with strong mobility since it can be reconfigured depending on the amount of nodes, also we employ a target coverage because distributed learning fractal algorithm (DLFA) only consider reliable links among devices. Finally, through laboratory tests and computer simulations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach by means of a fractal routing in WSNs, by using a large amount of WSNs devices (from 16 to 64 sensors) for real time monitoring of different parameters, in order to make efficient WSNs and its application in a forthcoming Smart City.

The aim of this research was to apply an agent approach to wireless sensor network in order to construct a distributed, automated scene surveillance. Wireless sensor network using visual nodes is used as a framework for developing a scene understanding system to perform smart surveillance. Current methods of visual surveillance depend on highly train personnel to detect suspicious activity. However, the attention of most individuals degrades after 20 minutes of evaluating monitor-screens. Therefore current surveillance systems are prompt to failure. An automated object detection and tracking was developed in order to build a reliable visual surveillance system. Object detection is performed by means of a background subtraction technique known as Wronskian change detection. After discovery, a multi-agent tracking system tracks and follows the movement of each detected object. The proposed system provides a tool to improve the reliability and decrease the cost related to the personnel dedicated to inspect the monitor-screens

Emerging technologies have metamorphosed the nature of surveillance and monitoring application, but the sensory data collected using various gadgets still remain changeable and poorly synchronized. An event detected by WSN formulates patterns. The sink receives the information about several events happening in the coverage area. Sink has to correlate these streaming data (events) in spatial domain (several sensors) and time domain. This paper proposes a scheme to formulate patterns based on sensing elements and a methodology for detecting an intruder using rule-based semantics. This scheme can be integrated with the surveillance systems to detect the entry of an unauthorized person into a secured area. Real Time implementations prove that events, patterns, rules can efficiently detect an intruder with the help of a wired network with appropriate database. The semantic rules are developed using ANTLR tool.
