Online Monitoring System for Domestic Distribution Box

Abstract:

A new method for monitoring and control of domestic distribution box is proposed and developed for automated recovery of power continuity during interruption. The system automatically test each of the sockets to determine the source of the failure and isolate them. The data of the modified connection will be sent to the client through a server, wirelessly to notify the user the modifications made. Parallel processing via multi-threading in the server are used to increment the upper limit of TCP transmission's throughput. Multiple SQLite database are used by multiple threads for parallel storage of data to increase performance.
