In this study we propose an agricultural data monitoring solution which uses widely available and affordable IoT components, being integrated in the local edge infrastructure. Data related to several important agricultural parameters (air and soil temperature, air and soil humidity, luminosity) is collected and stored with the use of a local server, which also performs the distribution of the information to the end-user (usually the farmer). The presented application uses open-source software solutions. It is also complete, encompassing all aspects from the used sensors to the monitoring and control application. The sensors communicate using the LoRaWAN protocol and are independent, being powered with the use of solar panels. The proposed system has been tested in real conditions for over a year, proving to be reliable and requiring no additional maintenance costs.

Evaluating climate change, particularly rainfall fluctuations, is critical for regions prone to extreme weather, like Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. This study employs both traditional time-series models and deep learning techniques to forecast rainfall patterns. An Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) was performed on the monthly average rainfall data (1981-2022) from the Bangladesh Meteorological Department, revealing significant trends and seasonal patterns that guided model selection. ARIMA (0,0,1)(2,0,1)12, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) models were developed to predict future rainfall. Among them, the GRU model achieved the lowest training errors (RMSE: 5.61, MAE: 3.48), while LSTM excelled in test data performance, producing lower errors (RMSE: 7.79, MAE: 4.68). Additionally, LSTM demonstrated the smallest percentage difference between training and testing errors, highlighting its superior generalization capabilities compared to SARIMA and GRU. These findings underscore the effectiveness of LSTM in capturing complex rainfall patterns, contributing to improved flood risk assessment and water resource management strategies.

To accurately estimate the battery state of charge (SOC), it is vital to improve the performance of a battery-powered system. This paper employs the recent proposed Evolutionary Mating Algorithm (EMA) for optimizing the weights and biases of Feed-Forward Neural Network (FNN) in estimating the state of charge (SOC) of Lithium-ion batteries. SOC estimation is the critical aspect in battery management system (BMS) to ensure the reliable operation of electric vehicles (EV) since there are no direct way to measure it. In addition, it is very nonlinear due to variation of charge/discharge currents and temperature. EMA is the recent evolutionary algorithm based on mating theory and environmental factor will be used in this paper to optimize the weights and biases of FNN on a common Li-ion battery, multiple data measurements, drive cycles and training repetitions. The performance of EMA will be compared with other algorithms to show the effectiveness of EMA in solving the SOC estimation problem. Findings of the study demonstrate the superiority of EMA in estimating the SOC of the batteries in terms of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Standard Deviation.

Video streaming efficiency remains a major challenge, with increasing demands for high-resolution content and minimal buffering times. We propose a novel solution to enhance user experiences. Our approach combines adaptive streaming, AI algorithms predicting network conditions, and edge computing to optimize task allocation. These technologies aim to reduce latency, lower network traffic, and facilitate seamless transitions in video quality. Our results improve the streaming services and enable real-time video applications in remote or mobile environments, presenting substantial implications for the future of video streaming.

The total effective resistance, also called the Kirchhoff index, provides a robustness measure for a graph $G$ . We consider the optimization problem of adding $k$ new edges to $G$ such that the resulting graph has minimal total effective resistance (i. e., is most robust). The total effective resistance and effective resistances between nodes can be computed using the pseudoinverse of the graph Laplacian. The pseudoinverse may be computed explicitly via pseudoinversion; yet, this takes cubic time in practice and quadratic space. We instead exploit combinatorial and algebraic connections to speed up gain computations in established generic greedy heuristics. Moreover, we leverage existing randomized techniques to boost the performance of our approaches by introducing a sub-sampling step. Our different graph- and matrix-based approaches are indeed significantly faster than the state-of-the-art greedy algorithm, while their quality remains reasonably high and is often quite close. Our experiments show that we can now process large graphs for which the application of the state-of-the-art greedy approach was infeasible before. As far as we know, we are the first to be able to process graphs with $100K+$ nodes in the order of minutes.

The RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA) has garnered significant interest from both industry and academia because of its open source nature. Recent years have witnessed a surge in published implementations of the RISC-V ISA, with various companies actively pursuing its adoption in their products. However, a comprehensive analysis comparing these emerging RISC-V processors with each other and against established embedded computing platforms has not yet been published. This paper presents an experimental evaluation of three high-performance RISC-V processors: BOOM, NOEL-V, and CVA6 (formerly Ariane). The investigation is conducted on a Xilinx Kintex-7 Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) platform. We perform a detailed analysis of critical performance metrics, covering area footprint, power consumption, and performance efficiency. Additionally, we assess the security posture of these cores against transient execution attacks, a prominent contemporary security threat. Finally, a comparative evaluation is undertaken between the RISC-V processors and two conventional application-level ARM processors to elucidate technological discrepancies and application suitability. This analysis aims to provide valuable insights into the current state and potential of RISC-V processors within the embedded computing domain.
