Evaluation of a WSM system for a smart system in agricultural systems

On the earth, there will likely be over 9 billion people, and food demand will rise by 50%. In addition, a 10% decrease in agricultural productivity may result from climate change. Because arable land is stable, multi-layered farms are a feasible approach to produce additional food from small regions. Utilizing intelligent technologies to boost production in these farms that mimic factories makes sense. Smart farming (SF) is the application of information and communication technology on equipment; it includes sensors and equipment used in agricultural production systems. Internet of things and cloud computing are recent innovations. This, together with the use of robots and artificial intelligence in agriculture, ought to spur growth. Wheat, barley, fruits, vegetables, and fodder are the most widely consumed agricultural goods. Agriculture's socioeconomic viability is weather-dependent. By choosing the right crops, a farmer can increase productivity and do it at a lower cost. based on the cost and natural resources available A multi-criteria decision-making model (MCDM) can be used to sort crop options, promote sustainable agriculture practises, and identify the optimal crop for the situation. When evaluating the quantity of food produced in a season, a vertical farm's indoor hectare can provide the same yield as 30 hectares of land using 70% less water and no pesticides. One of the key factors impacting the evolution of SF among the numerous systems available was demonstrated to be cohesion. Additional limitations include the education, skills, and ability of farmers to understand and operate SF instruments. Businesses were able to research and address these problems because to these limits, and science can help. India's use of basic for sustainable farming methods The model's development is the main focus of the study.

Development of Methods for Studying the Image of Culture in the Digital Era

There are a wide range of characteristics of cultural development in the digital age. One of the main features among them is the impact of modern information and communication technologies on the development of culture, which causes the new meanings and images of culture. These phenomena appear both in a real, traditional incarnation, and in a new — digital one. Moreover, both of these images are interconnected and often they are two sides of a cultural picture, process or phenomenon. The widespread use of information and communication technologies in the cultural sphere allows a person to realize his cultural potential. As a result, the cultural space is gradually saturated with works and objects of digital culture, digital art. And such objects no longer have analogues in the real world. They act as independent cultural phenomena and dominants, generating new cultural meanings. Therefore, an effective and comprehensive study of cultural images is possible only via new methods which are based on the information and communication technologies application, i. e. methods of Digital Humanities. Several new approaches to the study of culture are offered in the paper. They allow us to study the modern pervasive social and cultural space more effectively. These methods and approaches are used both in the scholarly research conducted by the authors and are effectively used for the study of culture by students of the St. Petersburg State University.

Implementing AI Solutions for Advanced Cyber‐Attack Detection in Smart Grid

As the backbone of modern power systems, the smart grid is one of the most critical applications of the Internet of Things. The intelligent electricity system faces various types of unauthorized malicious access, that is, cyber‐attacks. With the development and application of information and communication technologies in traditional power systems, the improvement of physical‐cyber systems in the smart grid also increases. Nowadays, the deployment of defensive measures has surged in response to the growing number of attacks aimed at the smart grid. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate cyber‐attack identification using artificial intelligence‐based models and identify them by estimating the state vector of the electricity network. We accomplish simulations by extracting data from the five‐bus IEEE network to test the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. False data attack vectors are then injected into the healthy measurements. In this way, to check the detection power of the proposed algorithms, 2,000 measurement samples have been taken from the five‐bus network, half of which are considered healthy data and the other half as manipulated data. After labeling healthy and false data, machine‐learning algorithms such as decision trees and k‐nearest neighbor (KNN) have been used to investigate and identify this type of attack. Comparative analysis of the two proposed algorithms against commonly used methods demonstrates significantly improved accuracy. Specifically, according to the best depth for the decision‐tree algorithm and k for the KNN algorithm, it is drawn with k = 3 and the decision‐tree algorithm with a depth of 9. According to the algorithms proposed in this article, the decision‐tree algorithm with a depth of 9 in p‐value of 0.45 and 0.64 and the nearest neighbor algorithm with k = 3 in p is equal to 0.72, 0.98, and 1 represent better accuracy. Also, the results indicate that the two proposed algorithms have performed much more favorably than other classification methods. Additionally, the detection accuracy increases with higher p‐values for these two algorithms. This problem shows that the detectors can detect false data injection attacks that cause more severe disturbances in the system.

Notice of Removal: Applications of Advanced Computer Communication and Control Technology for Modern Substations

This paper proposes a novel approach to achieve monitoring and control of modern substations using advanced computer communication and control technology. The proposed approach is based on a code division multiple access (CDMA) and interleave division multiple access (IDMA) system joining with optical-fiber communication technology to realize the utility infrastructure of Smart Grid. Recently, owing to the rapid growth on optical-fiber communication, it can offer standardized communication technology for wide-area, metropolitan-area, and local-area networks. Moreover, optical-fiber communication technologies offer not only significant benefits on connection among different CDMA-IDMA systems such as rapid deployment, higher baud rate (equal or higher than 14 Tb/s), enhanced bandwidth, less bit error rate (equal or less than 10-9), less optical-amplifier quantities, reduced interference among them, lower signal attenuation, etc. but also the advantages of being more suitable for remote-end applications in Smart Grid environment. With spreading spectrum modulation and demodulation combing encoding, it can be used to transmit data and images over power lines to accomplish opportunities and challenges in the effort on comparisons and assure safety, security, and reliability in order to achieve reliability and demand efficiency for modern substations of the utility system as a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system.

Women in the sustainability new ventures in the digital era: Out from the shadow of the small country male-dominated startup ecosystem

<p>Environmental sustainability has become one of the key issues for the future development of the European Union (EU). Estonia's startup entrepreneurship contributes prominently to innovative ideas in energy technology and information and communication technology (ICT) applications, essential for sustainability. Research and education are prerequisites for innovation in both fields. The gap in educational levels between Estonian women and men, favoring women, is among the largest in the EU. However, the proportion of women in entrepreneurship is significantly lower, even though the share of women in ICT personnel is among the highest in Europe. This study sought to determine women's contribution to sustainability (technology) startups in the context of these contrasting gaps. The article's dataset was based on sources such as the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, Ministry of Education and Science, Business Register, and Startup Ecosystem. It qualitatively analyzed the sustainability orientation of ventures and the gender structure of founders across nearly 1300 startups and clarified the share of selected startups' fundraising within the entire ecosystem. Through a simple regression analysis, we uncovered some short-term trends. Our findings indicate that 92% of the accumulated €4.46 billion in startup funding is foreign capital, and 171 sustainability startups account for nearly 63% of the ecosystem's total fundraising. Among the founders of top-invested startups, only 6% are women, whereas women constitute 23% of the founders of sustainability startups. Despite this, sustainability startups with female participation have secured only 2.2% of the total investments in the sustainability group, highlighting a drastic gender disproportion. However, the fundraising trend for women's sustainability startups founded in the last five years is more positive, reaching 24% of this group's investments. Although their overall share remains significantly lower compared with the entire startup ecosystem, this emerging trend is a promising sign of the breakthrough for female entrepreneurs in a traditionally male-dominated sector. The article's conclusion summarizes the study's results and suggests future gender-based research and development opportunities.</p>

Reforming Agricultural Extension System in Nepal: What can we adopt from selected Agriculture Led Countries?

This paper compares the existing Nepalese agricultural extension system with other selected agriculture-led countries to explore the needs and opportunities of introducing an innovative agricultural extension system in Nepal. A review of various documents including journals, reports, and policy papers was carried out. The status of financial and human resources in agricultural extension of Nepal was assessed from 753 municipalities and 7 provinces through survey interviews and, additionally, expert consultations were done with 15 key personnel working in the field of agricultural extension in Nepal. We examined the major changes in the agricultural extension made before and after the federalization in Nepal and examined institutional arrangements and activities for agricultural sector governance after federalization. Further, three cases were selected from selected agriculture-led countries based on the working modality of research and extension either solely or jointly or in hybrid mode. The study found insufficient human resources for agriculture sector governance especially in provinces and municipalities with 37.4% and 29% of vacant positions, respectively. The recruited agriculture technicians were mostly engaged in administrative management and handout distribution rather than agricultural technology transfer. Most technicians were freshly recruited without any on-the-job training. The paper discussed about the agriculture extension approaches, service mechanisms and structure across the countries, and its relevancy in Nepal. Irrespective of operational modality of research and extension, technological advancement and application of Information Communication Technology plays an important role for the effectiveness of the extension services.

Alumina‐Epoxy‐Pore Composites Fabricated by Inkjet Printing for Wireless Communication Technology

AbstractReducing transmission loss via composites with pores has emerged as a breakthrough method for information and communications technology applications. The super/extremely high‐frequency signals used in the technologies result in significant transmission loss. Demand for low‐loss materials with low dielectric constant (Dk) and low dissipation factor (Df) has increased in recent years. Here, it is demonstrated that the pore in composites can be reduced Dk and Df of composites with pores (air). In fabrication of composites, a drop‐on‐demand (DOD) inkjet printing method to fabricate composites with pores (air) for use in wireless communications technologies. The DOD method is a simple but versatile manufacturing process at low cost. Its versatile process makes it possible to control the amount of resin and pore in fabrication of the composites and moreover to distribute all their components isotopically and homogeneously. It is possible to fabricate the composites with a lower Dk and Df value by increasing pore amount in the composites. This strategy enabled us to inexpensively manufacture dielectric substrates with low Dk and Df values, greatly contributing to the communications technology industry.

Devising an approach to the use of distance education technologies in performing control measures for technical students

The object of this study is the process of implementation of control measures with the help of distance learning technologies for students of technical specialties. The problem of the application of information and communication technologies for the effective implementation of final control during distance learning has been studied. An authentic algorithm for creating a test on the Moodle platform has been developed. The proposed algorithm is based on the use of the classical structure of the ticket, which allows implementing an approach to final control that is closest to the traditional one. This is important for assessing the acquired practical students competences of engineering specialties since for them the control measure may include a combination of textual, graphic, and computational tasks. The application of the algorithm in practice allows one to improve the quality of the final assessment by ensuring equal conditions for students, attracting the optimal set of tools for this, as well as identifying the student and thus ensuring the transparency of the control measure. Verification of the developed algorithm during the quarantine period sessions at the Faculty of Transport Construction of the National Transport University demonstrated a better adaptability of students to conduct control measures in remote form. This is confirmed by an increase in quality (from 1.16 % to 6.8 %) and success (to 7.4 %) rates among students, as well as a high level of student satisfaction in 2022 with the effectiveness of online learning, which was determined through an anonymous questionnaire. Promising steps regarding the use of the algorithm in the final evaluation are the development of measures for the implementation of automated recognition of the emotional status of students
