Lane recognition is a kind of technology which can reconstruct either continuous or discontinuous lanes in the driving region into the continuous curves from the images of the road containing the lane markings. It is the basis and prerequisite for the whole lane departure warning system and the key technology in intelligent traffic safety assistant driving now. Generally speaking, the road images which the camera captures are processed by three steps: image preprocessing, image threshold segment and lane recognition. This paper proposed an efficient system to detect the lanes and mainly made experimental research on the images simulation of the three kinds of algorithms of the threshold segment and used the principle of Hough Transform in the lane recognition. Finally, the relatively efficient and accurate lane recognition processing algorithm was obtained according to the experimental results. Undoubtedly, this would lay a theoretical foundation for putting lane detection algorithm into practical application.

Internet of Things refers to a paradigm consisting of a variety of uniquely identifiable day to day things communicating with one another to form a large scale dynamic network. The integration of these heterogeneous things in the constrained network is a challenging issue, for which service oriented and architecture based solutions are considered to be useful. The key element of any service oriented paradigm is service discovery which allows the client to get access to the right service at the right time to complete the requested tasks. This paper presented a comprehensive survey of major solutions for service and resource discovery detailing techniques and features used in existing systems. The survey presented the findings in tabular representation and outlined the proposed aspect oriented middleware framework for IoT highlighting context awareness and solving certain pitfalls in the existing service discovery approaches. The survey results might be helpful in deriving the limitations of the existing protocols in literature and identify future research opportunities in service discovery.
