In this paper, a design process and a hardware implementation for a wireless realtime home automation system approach based on NI MyRIO microcontroller board and LabVIEW platform has been developed. The proposed automated system has two hardware elements: the first one is a personal computer as a system main server hosting the designed LabVIEW platform and the second element is a NI MyRIO microcontroller board for managing the operating between the appliances and the sensors. The appliances can be automatically monitored, controlled, and accessed in response to the signals from the related sensors or manually by the system end-user through smart phone based on Wi-Fi and cloud computing technology. To approve the reliability of the proposed automated system, a hardware realization for three appliances: temperature management, light energy saving, and biometric security system of face recognition with fingerprint check has been introduced. The proposed system has a simple structure, economically cost effective and flexible scaling up for a proper automated home future.
In parallel with world population growth, the increase in the use of scarce resources leads the societies to seek new sources with each passing day. In the world where almost all of the terrestrial areas are shared, the attention of the countries has shifted especially to the marine areas and marine sources. The most important factor that gives the right to the use of the resources related to the sea, especially to the coastal states, is the rights related to maritime jurisdictions arising from international law. These rights begin with short-distance sea areas, such as inland waters and territorial waters, with rights to explore on the seabed, such as the continental shelf and the exclusive economic zone. Located at the intersection of important marine areas in the world scale of Turkey, it is a prominent maritime jurisdiction areas of application for the position. Particularly contentious position with neighboring states in the Eastern Mediterranean littoral and marine applications in areas subject sharing, Turkey and poses a major challenge for governments as well as other coastal areas. Therefore, in this study the applications in maritime jurisdiction areas of Turkey in the Eastern Mediterranean and its impact on energy discovery of these applications are discussed. In this context, in order to better understand the subject, firstly basic concepts related to maritime jurisdictions were introduced and then the practices in the Eastern Mediterranean were explained and developments related to energy discoveries in this region were evaluated. Then the study was concluded by mentioning the predictions for the future.
