Abstract : In this thesis, we present a multilevel scheme consisting of both hardware and software solutions to improve the daily operational life of firefighters. As a core part of this scheme, we design and develop a smart system of wearable IoT devices used for state assessment and localization of firefighters during interventions. To ensure a maximum lifetime for this system, we propose multiple data-driven energy management techniques for resource constraint IoT devices. The first one is an algorithm that reduces the amount of data transmitted between the sensor and the destination (Sink). This latter exploits the temporal correlation of collected sensor measurements to build a simple yet robust model that can forecast future observations.(...).
