Framework of WSN based human centric cyber physical in-pipe water monitoring system

We present a human centric cyber physical framework architecture of our in-pipe water monitoring and feedback system. This system comprises of the physical water distribution infrastructure, together with the hardware and software supported intelligent agents for water allotment, leak detection and contamination spread control. An agent-based approach for connecting the cyber and physical layers is selected, where the agents get information from sensors monitoring the physical components and provide this information to the cyber system. The Hidden Markov Models (HMM) are briefly discussed to determine water consumption patterns and make decisions for cyber and physical systems.
