This article presents a study on the use of photovoltaic panels for storing electrical energy intended to power an HVAC unit placed in a residential room. To highlight this aspect, two specific scenarios will be considered. Thus, we aim to analyze whether the generated and stored energy is sufficient to fulfil the thermal comfort requirements of the user, while also considering the primary objective of minimizing energy consumption. To achieve this goal, the HVAC unit will be controlled by implementing a fuzzy system that determines its optimal activation based on the comfort level obtained from the user. The fuzzy system presents as inputs both environmental parameters and specific personal perception parameters of the user. The research results provide an insight into the efficiency of implementing photovoltaic energy storage systems for residential applications and propose solutions for optimizing energy consumption in the context of ensuring adequate thermal comfort. Thus, the study contributes to the development of sustainable and personalized energy solutions for smart homes.

automatic Term Recognition is used to extract domain-specific terms that belong to a given domain. In order to be accurate, these corpus and language-dependent methods require large volumes of textual data that need to be processed to extract candidate terms that are afterward scored according to a given metric. To improve text preprocessing and candidate terms extraction and scoring, we propose a distributed Spark-based architecture to automatically extract domain-specific terms. The main contributions are as follows: (1) propose a novel distributed automatic domain-specific multi-word term recognition architecture built on top of the Spark ecosystem; (2) perform an in-depth analysis of our architecture in terms of accuracy and scalability; (3) design an easy-to-integrate Python implementation that enables the use of Big Data processing in fields such as Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. We prove empirically the feasibility of our architecture by performing experiments on two real-world datasets.

Blockchain technology gained much traction in the last few years. These decentralized databases offer security, immutability, and scalability across various applications. Decentralized applications generate vast amounts of data, known as events, that are recorded on the blockchain and are public to anyone. Some people may see opportunities for financial gains in these events and would like to know when they occur. This paper proposes a solution to process and deliver those events as real-time alerts to the users. It uses existing technologies such as message queues, multithreading, and asynchronous processing and integrates them into a scalable architecture. The results we achieved in this paper show that for an evenly distributed network traffic, which does not entirely consists of transaction bursts, the proposed solution offers reliability, efficiency, and a suitable delivery time to those wishing to integrate it into their projects. With time, this solution, or improved architectures, may form the basis of the following big-data architectures for processing blockchain events.

Unmanned aerial vehicles can improve short- term weather forecasting by acquiring information from weather sensors and other sensors. With this information, there is the possibility of making relevant maps like solar radiation, pollen, emissions, particles, and others. Another advantage of this acquisition system is the high rate of flights, compared to the classic measurements made with the weather balloon, which is launched twice a day. In addition to the advantages listed above, we discuss the multiplication factor of the acquired data, these systems being able to operate in various geographical locations.
