The Client
AELB and MOSTI, are Government bodies of Malaysia operating
on Research and Technology. The roll of AELB is to control over the
use of radioactive substances. Due to the rapid development of atomic
energy activities in Malaysia which required more effective control
and inspection Atomic Energy Licensing Board (AELB) needed an effective
and efficient Radio Active Traffic monitoring System.
The Challenge
The Atomic Energy Licensing Board (AELB) and Ministry
of Science, Technology & Innovation (MOSTI) require a centralized
system to monitor and track nuclear and radioactive material movement
in Malaysia. The Centralized Radiation Monitoring System (CRMS) was
required to be integrated with the data captured from the Portals
which is installed in different strategic locations across Malaysia.
The Portals monitored pedestrians and vehicles for radioactive radiations.
CRMS’s is to build a system that offers a central monitoring
of vehicles or pedestrians carrying radioactive materials across Malaysia.
The core of the system is to transfer the real-time data from the
portals to a central location. The system in central location shall
process the data and display messages as per the rules set by the
users.
The Solution
A core system was designed to monitor and control
the radioactive material trafficking. The system to process the incoming
data triggers an alarm.
CRMS Architecture
The CRMS was designed to interface with existing
Radioactive Sensor Device implementations and their data from each
location. A Networking was established to dispatch the data received
from the devices to the CRMS via a secured internet network.
CRMS System received the incoming data and display necessary information
and triggered alarm whenever any rules are violated.
CRMS Application:
The CRMS Application is responsible for processing
the incoming alert data, performing the functions of storing and retrieving
data from database, transmitting alert signals to users in form of
visual and sound alert.
CRMS Database:
A Persistent storage device to store all the data
and information regarding the processing.
User Interface:
System interfaced with Graphical User Interface
to receive the Rules and Conditions created by CRMS Admin. The GUI
shall be user-friendly and intuitive in design and navigation. The
GUI shall also be integrated with reporting tool to generate necessary
Reports.
