An Internet of Everything Based Integrated Security System for Smart Archaeological Areas.

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate an Internet of Everything based integrated security system for archaeological areas capable of ensuring visitors security, cultural heritage preservation/protection and great usability for visitors, with particular reference to visitors with disabilities. Genetic Algorithms (GAs) have been used to design the integrated security system, in particular for fields elements such as Wi-Fi Access Points, CCTV cameras, installation poles (to respect the archaeological vincula of the site) to ensure a reduction of final costs and a high level of reliability and resilience of the system itself, keeping, into consideration, the typical vincula and restrictions of archaeological areas The proposed system, together with the GAs based optimization technique, thanks to its flexibility, can be used in any kind of archaeological area or any kind of cultural site by means of a proper adaption.
