Digital transition is characterizing all the components of our world. Considering transport infrastructures, for maximizing safety and comfort of users while driving, the exploitation of multiple powerful sensors and data analysis capabilities is a primary research and development goal. In this context, the digital road transport infrastructures (“Smart Roads”) will represent complex and integrated systems combining physical and digital assets for ensuring roads with information, sensing, and acting capabilities. In view of these goals and this transition, the management of the asset condition plays a strategic role, especially considering road physical components and, mainly, the pavement, on which vehicles move. In this paper, accordingly, the authors describe a methodological approach for implementing an innovative architecture of advanced digital services in Smart Roads, based on the distributed computing paradigms of Edge and Cloud. This approach combines continuous and multiple data acquired by reliable, simple, smart, and connected sensors in vehicles on a cloud-based management platform to estimate the pavement “health-state”. This may significantly improve control of condition of the asset critical segments, for optimizing planning of more accurate high-performance survey and, thus, implement maintenance and rehabilitation programs.

Energy-efficient workload management is increasingly important in data centers as demand for cloud computing continues to grow. Recent findings in workload management point to thermal-aware load balancers as an effective approach to reduce energy consumption via cooling costs. Due to the high energy cost of Data Centers (DCs) and possible risk of disrupting critical services, simulations can be used to evaluate temperature-aware load-balancing algorithms. In this paper, we leverage an existing DC simulator's environmental parameters for integrating a temperature prediction model to construct a temperature-aware workload distribution simulation. Using scheduled sampling, we implemented a custom recursive multi-step forecasting model that reduced the discrepancy between training error and simulation predictions. Compared with a baseline GPU temperature prediction model, our hybrid CNN-LSTM model achieved a reduction in RMSE from 2.54 to 0.73.

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have proved to be revolutionary in the development and widespread of educational technology over the past few years. It has been identified that these systems, despite all the benefits, lack interaction and collaboration around learning materials. This paper explores how to leverage learning channels to support interaction and collaboration in MOOC environments. We present the design, implementation, and evaluation details of learning channels in CourseMapper, a MOOC platform which supports collaboration and interaction around learning materials using collaborative Pdf and video annotations. More specifically, we report on the application and results of a human-centered design (HCD) approach used to systematically design learning channels. Three design iterations with five new users in each iteration (N=15) were conducted from an initial user interview to the final design. After the development, user experience with the system was evaluated with end users (N=10) based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The evaluation results show that the introduction of learning channels provides a valuable mechanism to support effective interaction and collaboration in a MOOC environment.

The annual increase in population drives a corresponding rise in demand for goods and services, which in turn directly impacts agricultural needs at both regional and national levels. In Sikka Regency, the demand for horticultural commodities has grown alongside population expansion and increasing prosperity. However, the lack of proper planting distance management has disrupted efficient distribution, leading to logistical inefficiencies. As a result, it is crucial to develop an optimal market demand plan for horticultural commodities to prevent surplus accumulation. To address this challenge, this study proposes a predictive model for monthly market demand in 2024, focusing on 12 types of horticultural commodities in Sikka Regency. Food consumption time series data from 2019 to 2023 are used in the model. A back-propagation algorithm is utilized by an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to make this prediction. With a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.166 and a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.201, the model's performance evaluation showed an average training accuracy. The average testing accuracy, on the other hand, had an MAE of 0.303 and an RMSE of 0.338. These experimental results show that the suggested strategy might be a useful tool for horticulture commodities market participants and provide insightful information about market dynamics.

AI is a magnificent field that directly and profoundly touches on numerous disciplines ranging from philosophy, computerscience, engineering, mathematics, decision and data science and economics, to cognitivescience, neuroscience and more. The number of applications and impact of AI is second to none and the potential of AI to broadly impact future science developments is particularly thrilling. While attempts to understand knowledge, reasoning, cognition and learning go back centuries, AI remains a relatively new field. In part due to the fact it has so many wide-ranging overlaps with other disparate fields it appears to have trouble developing a robust identity and culture. Here we suggest that contrasting the fast-moving AI culture to biological and biomedical sciences is both insightful and useful way to inaugurate a healthy tradition needed to envision and manage our ascent to AGI and beyond (independent of the AI Platforms used). After all, the human brain is a biological organ produced by evolution and human intelligence is a remarkable bi-product of nature and nurture and their complex interaction. In this perspective, we focus on traditions and culture, namely the commonly observed practices of evaluating, recognizing applauding, critiquing, debating and managing all progress including useful advances and discovery of challenging limitations. We are not discussing specific scientific exchanges between AI and Biology that include interdisciplinary cross fertilization of scientific methods, technology, ideas and applications that have been amply demonstrated and will continue to be transformative in the future. In a previous perspective, we suggested that biomedical laboratories or centers can usefully embrace logistic traditions in AI labs that will allow them to be highly collaborative, improve the reproducibility of research, reduce risk aversion and produce faster mentorship pathways for PhDs and fellows. This perspective focuses on the benefits of AI a
