In target tracking applications, the moving targets have randomness and contingency, and the tracking nodes have limited energy and small communication radius. In order to improve the tracking accuracy with minimizing the energy consumption and extending the lifetime of network, a trilateration based clustering target tracking algorithm was proposed. It adopted trilateration technique for the target localization to improve the tracking accuracy. For the sake of achieving energy balance, on the basis of two parameters including the distance between the node and the target and the residual energy level of the node, the cluster head and members were elected in the stage of wake clustering establishment. The simulation results show that, compared with Prediction-based Energy Saving (PES) scheme and Hybrid Cluster-based Target Tracking (HCTT) protocol, the proposed algorithm has a better performance in lifetime of the network, predicting path and tracking accuracy.
The events correlation techniques in security integration management systems were introduced. A normal architecture of the correlation engine was introduced, and some discussions on the critical technologies and the main achievements in the field were put forward. The directions of the technology development were analyzed and evaluated, such as pattern obtainment, engine distribution and performance promotion. At last, a solution based on hierarchical rules to correlate events was presented.
