COIT20260 Cloud Computing: Smart Application Development Report

This report details the development and deployment of a smart application using cloud computing technologies, specifically focusing on the IBM Bluemix platform. The project involves the integration of IBM Node-RED and the IBM Watson IoT Platform to create an application that detects excessive shock based on accelerometer data from a smartphone sensor. The report provides a step-by-step guide to configuring and deploying the application, including the creation of a dashboard in the Watson IoT Platform and the use of virtual sensors. The difficulties faced during development, such as message verification and application configuration, are also discussed. The application successfully sends email alerts when acceleration exceeds a certain threshold. The report concludes with a discussion of the project's outcomes, including the successful evaluation of the shock detection mechanism and the effective use of the IBM cloud platform. References include IEEE Cloud Computing publications.

3. Introduction
A smart application has to be designed and developed as our main project goal which shall
identify the additional shock which is on the basis of the data orientation and accelerometer
of the sensor on your phone as;we have a smart application development organization, the
AB Pvt ltd. They have been doing research work on the detection of additional excesses
shock and trying to create a smart phone application for the same. By combining the IBM
Node - Red system and IBM Watson IoT platform dashboard, we shall combine with
IBM blue mix to make a smart application.
Here we shall discuss, analyse and give full details in our project ("IEEE Cloud Computing
Call for Papers", 2014).
4. Step by Step process to Configure and Deploy the Applications
4.1 IBM NODERED
We shall startwith the using the Node-RED Nodeand IBM Watson IoT platform, we shall
utilize Internet of things Starter.js application.
Below are the steps for the same,
4

Below is the image of the opening of the IoT - Internet of things starter platform which is of
course after we have searched for the same.
Smart app service iotis entered next as the App name as displayed in the below image,
5

Click on create to make the smart application first by selecting the IoT- internet of thing
platform and this is given in the below image,
Next press on the visit app URL after we have made the smart application ("IEEE Cloud
Computing Special Issue on Cloud Security", 2015),
Next as shown in the below image, we shall notice the window starting the Node – Red
applications.
6

A Node – Red editor is next secured.
As shown in the below image, finish the node – red configuration.
7

The Node –Red main page is next displayed.
Next , click on the Go to Node Red editor.
8

Next the User name and password is entered accordingly.
As shown in the below image, by default the open the node flow is displayed
9

Next we have to make the flow and sensor.
By making use of the IoT sensor online which is displayed below, we shall create the
simulator
Device Id - 4b7687b99850
As illustrated below, we shall make the Node Red flow.
10

The given modifications will make on the created flow, firstly in the flow creation.
In Function Node,
In Switch Node,

13

Lastly, to re-deploy Node-RED flow, click on Click Deploy,
As displayed below, we shall include the IoT Data in Cloudant DB for processing.

4.2 Create a dashboard in Watson IoT Platform
As shown below, we shall make the dashboard in Watson IoT platform,

24

Next we shall make the virtual sensor for which we shall consider IBM Watson IoT platform
as displayed in the below image,

5. Difficulties
 Verifying the smart phone message warning on the Watson platform for the code editing,
configure and install on the IOT starter smart application are the difficulties faced.Application
configuration, Analytics geospatial creations, and email Phone warning and deployment of
application are the additional functions of the application.
6. Conclusion
The smart phone application for identifying the excesses shock on the basis of the data
orientation and the accelerometer which is included on the sensor of the smart phone, has
been successfully developed, designed and tested for the AB private limited company who
are an organization which specializes in the development of smart phone applications.
They have been developing and working to create the smart phone application. By utilizing
the IBM Watson IoT platform dashboard and IBM Node - Red system, we used the IBM blue
combination to efficiently make the smart phone application. For the IoT sensor application,
we have also successfully finished the reading/ receiving of the accelerometer values which
shall a warning message whenever acceleration exceeds a certain threshold value. Utilized for
the evaluation of the shock detection very effectively for the accelerometerof the smart phone
sensor has been finished which, included the research work, discussion and evaluation of the
application. Shock identified by the starting procedure of the creation, than the IBM Node red
system will send an email alert.It has to be evaluated for the event of the excessive stock
overtime line; on the horizontal IBM Watson IOT platform, the chart for the dashboard has
been finished successfully. A detailed discussion and evaluation was completed with
successful results.
