Designing A Distributed Network Of Air Quality Sensors, Kaylee Rauso May 2018

Designing A Distributed Network Of Air Quality Sensors, Kaylee Rauso

Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses

The deterioration of human and environmental health due to worsening outdoor air quality is a serious global threat. A step towards improving the current state of ambient air worldwide is the increased collection of data for government policy, research, and general public use. Currently, reliable data is only collected at a handful of sites in the state of Arkansas and sparsely across the country. The purpose of this project was to design an inexpensive air quality sensor to saturate entire cities with nodes which transmit air data to a sensor for a web application to display. The prototype node was …


Dynamic 3d Network Data Visualization, Brok Stafford May 2018

Dynamic 3d Network Data Visualization, Brok Stafford

Computer Science and Computer Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses

Monitoring network traffic has always been an arduous and tedious task because of the complexity and sheer volume of network data that is being consistently generated. In addition, network growth and new technologies are rapidly increasing these levels of complexity and volume. An effective technique in understanding and managing a large dataset, such as network traffic, is data visualization. There are several tools that attempt to turn network traffic into visual stimuli. Many of these do so in 2D space and those that are 3D lack the ability to display network patterns effectively. Existing 3D network visualization tools lack user …
