Abstract
Floods have always been a major cause of destruction from the past itself. In the manual river flow control system there is always a situation of the increasing or decreasing of the discharge available depending on the precipitation of the catchment region. In this article, with a blend of mobile agents (MAs), wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and intelligent systems we intend to formulate a new application to manage the water flow of a river by continuously monitoring the precipitation and correspondingly changing the position of the diversion head regulators (HR) of a barrage. Finally a global model of RIFMAS is also presented and it will be simulated in near future for its feasibility.
