Motivated by the need of industrial enterprises for supervision services for quality, security and safety guarantee, we have developed an Activity Recognition Framework based on computer vision and machine learning tools, attaining good recognition rates. However, the deployment of multiple cameras to exploit redundancies, the large training set requirements of our time series classification models, as well as general resource limitations together with the emphasis on real-time performance, pose significant challenges and lead us to consider a decentralized approach. We thus adapt our application to a new and innovative real-time enabled framework for service-based infrastructures, which has developed QoS-oriented Service Management mechanisms in order to allow cloud environments to facilitate real-time and interactivity. Deploying the Activity Recognition Framework in a cloud infrastructure can therefore enable it for large scale industrial environments.
