In disaster-stricken environments, it's vital to assess the damage quickly, analyse the stability of the environment, and allocate resources to the most vulnerable areas where victims might be present. These missions are difficult and…

In recent years, the illicit use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for deliveries in restricted area such as prisons became a significant security challenge. While numerous studies have focused on UAV detection or localization, little…

We propose a novel framework for composing Swarm-based Drone-as-a-Service (SDaaS) for delivery. Two composition approaches, i.e., sequential and parallel are designed considering the different behaviors of drone swarms. The proposed…

The wildfires in Australia make people suffer the losses caused by the devastating disasters. To protect people's security and the country's development in vulnerable situations, we are expected to establish a set of efficient and…

We propose an uncertainty-aware service approach to provide drone-based delivery services called Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS) effectively. Specifically, we propose a service model of DaaS based on the dynamic spatiotemporal features of drones…

Efficient traffic monitoring is crucial for managing urban transportation networks, especially under congested and dynamically changing traffic conditions. Drones offer a scalable and cost-effective alternative to fixed sensor networks.…

Uncontrolled emissions of gases from industrial accidents and disasters result in huge loss of life and property. Such extreme events require a quick and reliable survey of the site for effective rescue strategy planning. To achieve these…

In this paper, the problem of drone-assisted collaborative learning is considered. In this scenario, swarm of intelligent wireless devices train a shared neural network (NN) model with the help of a drone. Using its sensors, each device…

Humanitarian logistics service providers have two major responsibilities immediately after a disaster: locating trapped people and routing aid to them. These difficult operations are further hindered by failures in the transportation and…

Data collected from arrays of sensors are essential for informed decision-making in various systems. However, the presence of anomalies can compromise the accuracy and reliability of insights drawn from the collected data or information…

Drones are becoming a novel means for delivery services. We present a demonstration of drone delivery services in a skyway network that uses the service paradigm. A set of experiments is conducted using Crazyflie drones to collect the data…

Safe deployment of autonomous robots in diverse scenarios requires agents that are capable of efficiently adapting to new environments while satisfying constraints. In this work, we propose a practical and theoretically-justified approach…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become important in many applications including last-mile deliveries, surveillance and monitoring, and wireless networks. This paper aims to design UAV trajectories that simultaneously perform multiple…

We propose a novel framework for the re-allocation of drone swarms for delivery services known as Swarm-based Drone-as-a-Service (SDaaS). The re-allocation framework ensures maximum profit to drone swarm providers while meeting the time…

As Urban air mobility scales, commercial drone fleets offer a compelling, yet underexplored opportunity to function as mobile sensor networks for real-time urban traffic monitoring. In this paper, we propose a decentralized framework that…

We propose a risk-aware framework for multi-robot, multi-demand assignment and planning in unknown environments. Our motivation is disaster response and search-and-rescue scenarios where ground vehicles must reach demand locations as soon…

In an era of rapid urbanization and e-commerce growth, efficient parcel delivery methods are crucial. This paper presents a detailed study of the aerodynamics and sensing analysis of drones for parcel delivery. Utilizing Computational Fluid…

Many rescue missions demand effective perception and real-time decision making, which highly rely on effective data collection and processing. In this study, we propose a three-layer architecture of emergency caching networks focusing on…

We propose a novel context-aware drone delivery framework for optimizing package delivery through skyway networks in smart cities. We reformulate the problem of finding an optimal drone service delivery pathway as a more congruent and…

Thanks to their fast delivery, reduced traffic restrictions, and low manpower need, drones have been increasingly deployed to deliver time-critical materials, such as medication, blood, and exam kits, in emergency situations. This paper…
