Claim:
1. An integrated pipeline protection system, comprising: a pipeline; a plurality of modules adapted to be disposed to portions of an entire pipeline and capable of communicably configured to each other to generate a plurality of real time data relating to the pipeline, each of the plurality of modules comprising, at least one flexible composite layer, at least one layer of electronic circuitry embedded on a flexible composite layer of the at least one flexible composite layer, a layer of electronic circuitry of the at least one layer of electronic circuitry comprising a plurality of microchips embedded thereon, wherein each microchip of the plurality of microchips comprises coded software, and a plurality of nanosensors embedded on the flexible composite layer in coupling relationship with the layer of electronic circuitry and the microchips to form a combinational arrangement of the plurality of nanosensors, the layer of electronic circuitry and the microchips on the flexible composite layer, wherein the combinational arrangement of the plurality of nanosensors, the layer of electronic circuitry and the microchips on the flexible composite layer obtains a matrix in a rows and columns pattern, wherein intersections of the rows and columns pattern create sensing cells for sensing a respective parameter of a plurality of parameters related to the pipeline and the microchip with the coded software monitors and processes the respective parameter of the plurality of parameters associated with the pipeline to generate at least one of the plurality of real time data relating to the pipeline; and a central control unit adapted to be communicably configured to the plurality of modules to receive the plurality of real time data relating to the pipeline to generate a plurality of related information of the pipeline.
