Task 2.1: Information Architecture
Archfarm, the farming industry provides the significant profit. Animals are mostly
suffered from Mouth and foot Disease, contagious abortion and Anthrax. Farmers are affected
due to these kind of disease that is evolved in cattle. To eliminate this sort of disease in animals,
we introduce the health monitoring application for animals. This will monitor the animal diseases
as well as animal movements. To review the health status for each and every cow in arch farm,
the sensors are fixed on the cow. This sensor devices are at less cost which works as adhoc
system (Kim, Lee, Kang & Ś lęzak, 2010). The main role for this sensor is reviewing the animal’s
health parameter, collect and inform the data to other nodes. The sensed information of the node
is transferred hop-by-hop which leads to mingle in a way of multi-hop. Wireless sensor network
containing enormous amount of Nano electromechanical sensor which operates the computing,
sensing and interacting capability. These devices assist in collecting the sensory day such as
analyzing the temperature from the cow. The huge challenges involved in the sensor has

insufficient number of resources in the node of sensors. So, we wish to recommend the mobile
sink to get process and transmit the sensed data from the sensors which is mounted on cow’s
main part to watch the cow’s health condition in pasture area. The consequence involved in this
techniques is SNs which is near to the sink. This is used to dispatch the information from entire
nodes of network. This will lead to non-uniform energy deduction in WSN. In such situation,
corresponding nodes avail in the sensor field border which can be utilized as rendezvous area
where the sensed data will be gathered and transferred to MS when the techniques avail within
radio range. In this research, we proposed the system which is separated into two parts, in first
part the system will monitor and analyses the health condition of cow in pasture field. Secondly,
the system will review and examine health condition of animals in farm. This will help to
maintain the farm environment to improve the production from the cow in farm. Information of
farm environment and external environment are gathered via wireless sensor network which is
developed along with sensor installed in farm. The visual farm data is gathered and monitored
via closed-circuit TV camera. The entire information of the environment and the image of the
farm assist the user keep watching and marinating the farm. Additionally, farm facilities which
are maintainedautomatically depends on environmental status which is to deploy by SMS service
will be promoted to use during the dangerous condition.
Task 2.2: Application Usage
Application implementation of Livestock management
Sensor nodes are help to analyses the environmental data such as sunlight, humidity and
temperature in farm. Gateway is used to gather the data from sensor nodes and transmit the
sensed information into the server, controller throw the router, ZigBEE and internet. Micro
controller helps to operate the water sprayer, humidifier and light from controller. This controller
used to maintain the environment by transmitting the control data to micro controller sensed
data(Wolking, 2009). This data are already capture in the database. To monitor the health
condition of the cowin pasture field effectively, the sensor nodes are attached on cow main area.
These sensor construct the cluster and prefer the cluster head. If the cluster head transmit the
information to the static sink it acquire more energy. To decrease the consumption of energy, the

mobile sink was published which will directly receive the information from cluster head. To
ignore these issues new technique is introduced that is known as the numeral representation of
nodes placed in the sensor border in pasture field that will be used as rendezvous point.
Therefore sensed data from remote nodes can be gathered and transmitted to MS when the
techniques are evolve within radio range. Figure-1 shows the environment controller and monitor
system in cow farm.

Methods involved in applications
The main objective of this research is to control the environment situation constantly. The
environment situation such as temperature, humidity and sunlight in cow farm. Farm temperature
is sensed by temperature sensor. If the farm temperature is increased or reduced when compared
with threshold value, the controller will operate the water sprayer achieve through micro
controller. Farm humidity is examined by humidity sensor. When compare to threshold value if
the farm humidity is decrease, the controller enable the humidifier which is used to control the
farm humidity. Sunlight is sensed the sensor. According to the brightness of the sunlight, the
controller turn on or turn off the light to manage the farm illumination. To review the health
condition of cow, the numeral representation of nodes is introduced which is placed in the sensor
border in the pasture field which will be used as rendezvous point. Therefore sensed data from
remote nodes can be gathered and transmitted to MS when the techniques are evolve within radio
range. A main cause of effort spending in WSNs related to the interaction with the sensor sensed
from the node of the sensor to remote sinks. The disadvantage of this techniques is about SNs
which is placed nearly to sink are efficiently used to transmit information from entire node of
network, thus the more energy is consumed. This will lead to the decrease in the life span of
network. The existing system communicate with the data in huge wireless sensor network
acquire enormous amount energy. But in this huge sensor network there is a possibility for
theretransmission, faults exist in transmission packets and traffic. Additionally, to protect the
communication of data in huge wireless sensor network is complex. Data collected from
individual part in wireless sensor network is not effective. The propose system target to decrease
the entire network overheads as well expenditure of energy composed with multi-hop
information collection process. This is performed by constructing the structure of the clusters and
allow the cluster head(Pease, Cooper & Gururajan, 2010). This will operate in the extraction of
data and transfer the information to the end of the nodes. This proposed system has the main
advantage in the energy consumption, less information is loaded in RNs which will decrease the
possibility of buffer overflow in Rendezvous node. Selection process of the Rendezvous node
depends on the nodes that are closed with the mobile sinks. This will perform as intermediary
between mobile sink and cluster head. Figure-2 shows the monitoring system of cow farm.

Task 2.3: Application Cooperation
1. Data Aggregation and Forwarding to the RN’s
This phase of the Mobi-Cluster protocol begins with the obstruct recording of the ecological
data from nodes of the sensor within a Tr period. The information gathered at the isolated source
nodes are transmitted to the remote cluster head with a Tc period. Generally Tc is more that Tr.
Therefore, the main goal of cluster head is to transmit data processing for neglect redundancy of
data which is used to exist since the cluster are settled two hops far. Cluster head will transmit
the data in the guidance of local cluster head that are affix.

2. Secure Data Communication
Encryption and Decryption:
After the preference of acceptors, each and every sensor nodes interacts with the aggregator.
The symmetric key mechanism is denoted as Kch,i. These sensor nodes transfer the encrypted
data by using this key into the aggr. Thus the aggr gather the encrypted data and decrypts the
data through the same key kch,I. The aggr finds the malicious nodes and eliminate their data in
network depends on MAC operation where each and every aggregator resolve the MAC value
for the purpose of associated data and lastly associated data are encrypted and transmitted to the
sink. This data is encrypted through the symmetric key which is denoted as Kch, s. The sink will
decrypt the collected information by the same key represented as Kch, s.
3. Simulation Result:
The proposed technique is executed using NS-2 software. This simulation consist of the
following methods and performance metric such as average point-to-point delay. This delay is
the form of entire available information packets received from sources to destination Packet
Delivery Ratioincludes the proportion of the number of packet which is collected successfully
where the total amount of packets are transferred. Energy Consumption is the consideration of
average consumption of energy of entire nodes having the functionality of sending, receiving and
forward mechanism.
Task 2.4: Data Dissemination

.Archifarm isavailable with the automation techniques such as major production
site(Stewart, 2010). It includes the automatic feeding station that will disperse an amount of cow
feed to each nuclear cow as well as robotic Milk station that ill track the individual cow yield and
handle the milking times for each and every cow in the farm. The amount of milk produced by
each cow is transferred from IS (information system) which manages the milking station and
examined using a custom software application. The examined outcome is used by the farm
employees to handle the quantities of the feed for each individual cow and conduct the health test
by veterinarians. Recently, developing health problems are the deals with each and every
individual site.The examination of each cow’s health is recently done by manual examination
and issues are generally found. Records of health problems and remedial activities are stored in
the cow’s health document. The health record is referred as a informal text document which is
collected in file system on file server. If the issues are diagnosed, the mixture of cow feed and
the amount of feed is managed and medicine may get added. This will be completed with the
help of control screen which is attached with feeding station of production sites. Archifarm
having the knowledge of PLF technology of reviewing the health and execute the health
monitoring of data-driven among entire production sites. Particularly, the industry wish to adopt
sensor in cow ears. This will need the industry to develop and manage a health prediction of
animal automatically and consequently collecting the sensor reading from cow’s ears and
connected with the information of health in and animal milk production. The industry aim to
perform data mining algorithm and analysis of prediction algorithm to predicts with issue before
the occurrence of serious disability. Therefore, we introduce the health monitoring application
for animals. This will monitor the animal diseases as well as animal movements. To review the
health status for each and every cow in arch farm, the sensors are fixed on the cow. This sensor
devices are less cost which works as adhoc system. The main role for this sensor is reviewing the
animal’s health parameter, collect and inform the data to other nodes. This will help to maintain
the farm environment to improve the production from the cow in farm. Information of farm
environment and external environment are gathered via wireless sensor network which is
developed along with sensor installed in farm.The main objective of this research is to control
the environment situation constantly. The environment situation such as temperature, humidity
and sunlight in cow farm. Farm temperature is sensed by temperature sensor.Gateway is used to
gather the data from sensor nodes and transmit the sensed information into the server, controller

throw the router, ZigBEE and internet. Micro controller helps to operate the water sprayer,
humidifier and light from controller. This controller is used to maintain the environment by
transmitting the control data to micro controller sensed data. This data are already capture in the
database. To monitor the health condition of the cow in pasture field effectively, the sensor
nodes are attached on the main area of the cow. This will help to discover the health condition of
cow.
The transmission of data buffered from RNs into MSs. Communication of information take
place along with intermediate access link(Norkus, 2012). Thus the condition is to resolve when
the coordination with MS and RN is exist. Communication must begin when the connection is
enable and stop while the connection got interrupted. Thus RN do not control to broadcast data
while MS is not exist. By implementing acknowledgment based protocol of MS and RN.
Therefore, the MS travel as successful after the setup level, periodical transferring the POLL
packets. The POLL is published in accurate time Tpoll. This packet of POLL is used by the RN
to discover when MS is having range of connectivity. These RN receiving POLL will start
transferring the data packet to MS. It will identify the collected data packet to RN thus the RN
consider the connection as live and data was shared regularly. The identify data packets are
removed form RN’s cache. The MS recognize every received information packet to the RN so
that the RN understands that the connection is lively and the information was consistently
distributed. The recognized information packet can then be cleaned from the RN’s cache.
