Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is an emerging concept that is gaining popularity in the IT sector. It is a significant topic of debate because it is being discussed as one of the most important trends for the future. After the COVID-19 pandemic, we saw...

Semantic image segmentation is used to analyse visual content and carry out real-time decision-making. This narrative literature analysis evaluates the multiple innovations and advancements in the semantic algorithm-based architecture by presenting a...

In traditional passive optical network (PON) neighboring, optical network units (ONUs) cannot communicate directly but through optical line terminals, resulting in propagation delays, security hazards and unnecessary use of upstream and downstream ba...

This work examines how reflections from various reflective surfaces affect the reception of RF electromagnetic waves and how the latter impacts wireless power transmission. The frequency range used was 469.5 MHz to 773.5 MHz, and three reflective mat...

Iron (Fe) doped zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanoparticles were prepared by thermolysis with varying concentrations of iron. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed the zinc blende cubic structure of ZnS. The effect of iron on lattice parameters such as cryst...

IEEE defines the standard 802.15.4 for Low Data Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (LR-WPAN) to be used with Internet of Things (IoT) sensor devices. IoT devices utilizing this standard suffer from traffic congestion on a node level in dense networ...

The connected vehicles are the future of transportation. Road can be much safer when vehicles are able to communicate about the traffic and road conditions to its surrounding vehicles or if they can “talk” to each other. A smooth communic...

This research work examines the performance of several compact and lightweight 2D laser scanners, including the Hokuyo URG-04LX, RP Lidar and Hokuyo UTM-30LX-EW, for their potential use in scanning and mapping applications. A detailed study was condu...

In this paper, we have presented the design and implementation of a blockchain-based approach for ensuring reliable supply chain management for commodities transported through smart containers. To administer interactions between the sender and receiv...

Sonophoresis is the process that involves the passage of drug molecules through the skin under ultrasonic stimulation. Drugs with a molecular weight greater than 500 daltons require some kind of stimulus to catalyze their penetration into the skin. L...

The aim of this study is to boost the power conversion efficiency of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) by using the co-sensitization strategy with appropriate natural dyes extracted from pomegranate, beetroot and cranberry. The fabricated DSSCs were...

For an internal combustion engine to attain greater fuel economy and performance per amount of emissions, variable valve-timing is often used. In this study, a PD controller for an electric driven planetary gear Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system is...
