The document proposes an integrated monitoring architecture using sensor networks. It aims to address the difficulties of integrating heterogeneous monitoring systems that are commonly developed separately. The proposed system creates a common database to store parameters measured from two environments - living and industrial - using wireless sensor networks. Temperature, humidity, voltage, and current are measured by sensors and transmitted via Zigbee and PIC microcontrollers to the database section and retrieved on request.

1. IMA: AN INTEGRATED MONITORING ARCHITECTURE
WITH SENSOR NETWORKS
Abstract:
The integrated monitoring has become an important approach for investigation, detection,
and policy decision in many fields. Unfortunately, current monitoring systems are commonly
developed by different organizations using specific technologies and platforms, bringing a lot of
difficulties for the seamless integration and unified access. To address the aforementioned
problem, a novel integrated monitoring architecture based on Web services is proposed, which
offers a universal client for accessing different monitoring systems and then facilitates system
integration under the heterogeneous environment. Sensor networks have provided innovative
solutions for different applications in both industry and education fields.
Existing system:
In the existing system, the parameters of different environments are measured and
updated in a separate database. The measurements were being carried out using wired protocols.
The disadvantage is that the amount of cabling required and also there is no commonly available
database
Proposed system:
In the proposed system, a common database is created for various environments. The
system also uses wireless sensor networks for parameter measurement. In this project two
environments are considered. In the living environment, the temperature and humidity is
measured and transmitted via Zigbee through the PIC microcontroller. In the industrial
environment, the voltage and current taken by the induction motor is measured and transmitted
with the help of the same as first case. In the receiver section the values are received by PC and

2. stored in a database. Once the user selects the environment and enters his/her user ID and
Password, the data of that particular environment is retrieved back from the database.
