This study explores the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) into urban waste management in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), focusing on Lubumbashi as a case study. The goal is to address the growing challenges of waste accumulation and inefficient infrastructure management using smart bins. These devices are equipped with sensors to monitor fill levels and communicate in real-time with management systems. The Unified Process (UP) method structured the development, while SysML modeling ensured precise design. A functional prototype was created, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach in an urban context of the DRC.

These devices are equipped with sensors to monitor fill levels and communicate in real-time with management systems. The Unified Process (UP) method structured the development, while SysML modeling ensured precise design.

Abstract: (french)
Cette étude explore l’intégration de l’Internet des Objets (IoT) dans la gestion des déchets urbains en République Démocratique du Congo (RDC), avec Lubumbashi comme étude de cas. L’objectif est de résoudre les défis croissants liés à l’accumulation des déchets et à la gestion inefficace des infrastructures en utilisant des poubelles intelligentes. Ces dispositifs sont équipés de capteurs pour surveiller le niveau de remplissage et communiquer en temps réel avec les systèmes de gestion. La méthode Unified Process (UP) a structuré le développement et la modélisation SysML a permis une conception précise. Un prototype fonctionnel a été réalisé, démontrant l’efficacité de l’approche proposée dans un contexte urbain de la RDC.
