IIOT ПЕРЕДАЧА ДАННЫХ С БПЛА В ПРОМЫШЛЕННУЮ СРЕДУ АГРОКОМПЛЕКСОВ В РЕЖИМЕ РЕАЛЬНОГО ВРЕМЕНИ

Agricultural complexes, including agriculture, are a good environment for the introduction of modern technologies and methods of using unmanned aerial vehicles to solve various tasks. Currently, in distributed control systems in various agricultural complexes using unmanned aerial vehicles, the classical hardware and software architecture for building such systems has been established. However, this approach has a number of significant drawbacks. (Research purpose) The research purpose is selecting the IIoT of the wireless real-time communication protocol of unmanned aerial vehicles for irrigation of agricultural complexes with a ground-based industrial system and developing concepts of a hardware and software complex using modern technologies and practices of the industrial Internet of things. (Materials and methods) Used open sources of international communities in the field of automation and the industrial Internet of Things, as well as domestic and foreign scientific publications on these topics, as source data and materials for the analysis and design of the proposed hardware architecture of the IIoT platform. The method of decomposition according to automation levels was applied; the method of decomposition according to the functionality performed by individual hardware and software components of the system; the method of summarizing information from modern sources on the subject of research; formalization of the hardware and software structure in the form of schematic diagrams. (Results and discussions) Proposed the concept of information data transmission based on the IIoT protocol of DDS-real-time data transmission. (Conclusions) It has been shown that classical architectural approaches to data transmission in the conditions of wireless systems and agro-unmanned aircraft have proven themselves well, however, the need to introduce new architectural and software methods and protocols for data transmission in real time leads to the need to study promising ways to implement this functionality. We analyzed the existing global trends in the field under consideration and proposed an up-to-date and up-to-date concept of IIoT architecture of distributed data transmission systems within the framework of a distributed management and monitoring system for agricultural complexes based on unmanned aircraft.

Data and Knowledge Organization for Natural Language Processing: Searching and Identifying Better Arrangements of Texts Based on Multimodal Information Architecture

Processing texts of multiple knowledge areas is a hard task. This article presents an Information Science contribution to natural language processing based on artificial neural networks through data arrangement. An extended concept of Information architecture was used, aggregating a multimodal view of organizing data. The Multimodal Information Architecture definition served as foundations for a five-step procedure to design, analyze and transform data used for artificial neural networks training and learning methods, complementing gaps identified by authors focused on Computer Science implementations. The proposal was validated with three datasets formed by texts coming from 16 knowledge areas. Results obtained through the usage of pre-processed data and raw data where compared. In each of the three datasets, the method identified arrangements which led to better and worst results, separating which corpus samples are more susceptible for knowledge extraction.

Extended ArchiMate Metamodel with a context-awareness layer for a dynamic Enterprise architecture model

Nowadays, in a turbulent environment, enterprise must be proactive and even predictive to survive in front of the plenty natures of dynamics. Achieving the desired proactivity and predictability, supposes that the enterprise works in advance on its internal transformation plans, but also develops an awareness to its context, to intercept, analyze and simulate any potential trigger of change that could affect its stability or more precisely its state of equilibrium. In this work, the concept of enterprise architecture is considered as a tool for establishing alignment between business, strategy, and IT. This paper is a continuation to previous works seeking for a dynamic model of enterprise architecture, able to respond in an autonomic manner to the turbulent environment. The self-adaptiveness was highlighted basically using the well-known loop, monitor, analyze, plan, execute and Knowledge. The use of Case-Based Reasoning was suggested to store a collection of problems and their resolutions, then using algorithms of similarity and adaptation to suggest the problem’s best fit solution. To make the reasoning mechanism and similarity process as reliable as possible, it was important to maximize experiences and expand the knowledge base. For thus, the proposition was to share knowledge bases. In this paper, the context awareness is considered as second source to enrich the knowledge base and to stay vigilant and sensitive to triggers of change.

Places of memory and contemplation: The rational and the emotions as fundamental elements to the conception of architecture integrated in the landscape

Throughout the history of Western culture, landscape has been transformed according to the search for the representation of an image of paradise, and it has acquired and absorbed principles dictated by the mental, cultural, social and political framework in which it is involved. Suburban villas are contextualized interpretations of ways of using and occupying the landscape, organized and built by cultural and economic elites, creating places where landscape and architecture complement each other in a hasty manner. The research focused on the suburban Villa of Renaissance influence as a reference and on framing and contextualizing it in the historiography and culture of Architecture and Landscape in Portuguese historical areas. The evolution of the concepts of suburban Villa, garden, villegiattura and ideal Villa was addressed. The research was conducted on the relationship between the mind, the rational, and the emotions of those who inhabit/perceive space and those who design it. From the demonstration of the adequacy of the same structuring, compositional and programmatic principles resulting from a cultural and historical evolution to new times and regional cultures, and their framing in times of artistic and Cultural Revolution, the same conceptual principles, spatial orders and types of relationship with the landscape were adapted to avant-garde compositional grammars in other architectural types and urban structures. This study proves the existence of an important contribution to Modern and Contemporary Architecture and Landscape Architecture, of an architectural culture synthesized in the analysis of the cases treated. A contribution also to teaching and professional practice, from the identification of recent works that reveal the same principles, spatial orders, approach to place and relationship with the landscape.

Reference Model to support decision-making in the planning and evaluation of automated order picking systems of heavy flatpacks in retail and wholesale fulfilment units

With increasing customer expectations in close shopping possibilities and shorter lead time in e-commerce, the home furnisher companies have a higher interest in automated order picking systems. Although technologies for automated order picking processes are developing rapidly, picking of the unergonomically large and heavy flatpacks is mainly conducted manually. This is due to the flexibility of manual processes, but also due to the long planning and evaluation time as the overall system is more complex with automation. This paper presents the conceptual architecture of a Reference Model to support the planning and evaluation of automated order picking systems of heavy flatpacks for retail and wholesale fulfilment units. The aim of the Reference Model is to provide a systematic approach in the project management, mainly focusing on the planning and evaluation process of automated order picking systems by supporting the decision-making and enabling the earlier integration of simulation in the planning phase.

Modular manufacturing and distributed control via interoperable digital twins

Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMSs) have been proposed to bolster resilience and to efficiently address rapid changes in customer needs. However, notable obstacles to their adoption still persist, such as insufficient integration into operations and inadequate incorporation of distributed control. In this paper, we present a 2-pillar conceptual architecture for enabling the operational integration of RMSs through interoperable Digital Twins (DTs) and propose avenues to enhance their capabilities with distributed and global intelligence technologies. To this end, utilizing DTs based on industrial standards promotes modularity and integrability. Moreover, it enables leveraging decision support methods and tools that may consider economic, energy and environmental aspects at different production levels (from machine level to the whole production system), thus offering a comprehensive framework to enhance adaptability, resilience, and sustainability in RMS.

A conceptual IoT framework based on Anova-F feature selection for chronic kidney disease detection using deep learning approach

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming an increasingly significant health issue, especially in low-income countries where access to affordable treatment is limited. Additionally, CKD is associated with various dietary factors, including liver failure, diabetes, anemia, nerve damage, inflammation, peroxidation, obesity, and other related conditions. Therefore, early prediction of CKD is important to progress the functionality of the kidney. In recent times, IoT has been widely used in a diversity of healthcare sectors through the incorporation of monitoring devices such as digital sensors and medical devices for patient monitoring from remote places. To overcome the problem, this research proposed a conceptual architecture for CKD detection. The sensor layer of the architecture includes IoT devices to collect data and the proposed classifier, MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron), utilizes the Anova-F feature selection technique to effectively detect CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease). In addition to MLP, four other classifiers including ANN (Artificial Neural Network), Simple RNN (Recurrent Neural Network), GRU (Gated Recurrent Unit), and SVM (Support Vector Machine), are employed for comparative analysis of accuracy. Furthermore, three additional feature selection techniques, namely Chi-squared, SFFS (Sequential Floating Forward Selection), and SBFS (Sequential Backward Floating Selection), are utilized to evaluate their impact on the accuracy of CKD detection. Our proposed method outperforms all other approaches with a remarkable accuracy of 99 % while maintaining efficient computational time. This advancement is crucial in developing a highly accurate machine capable of predicting CKD in remote areas with ease.

Supporting BIM-driven Factory Design by Engineering Data Management Capabilities

Nearly six thousand factory buildings requiring approval in Germany with a volume of almost 5 billion euros per year. According to recent studies, more than two-thirds of these buildings miss their cost targets by at least 10 percent. Building Information Modelling (BIM) promises considerable potential for optimization in the management of projects (e.g., through the targeted use of digital methods and technologies in project management) and through digital platform-based collaboration between stakeholders in building planning and production system planning in the early design and decision-making phases of engineering. This is where the research project "Holistically plan, build, and operate factories with Building Information Modeling (FaBIM)" comes in. The article presents an IT architecture concept based on a design reference process developed in the research project by experts from construction and factory planning. This supports integrated production system and building planning. The concrete application of an integrated BIM-driven data environment approach along the design reference process is demonstrated using the example of a battery cell factory and platform technology from CONTACT Software.

Minimalist Architecture and the Concept of Less is More: The Place of Hellenistic Cynicism in the Architectural Concept of Mies Van Der Rohe

Historically, cynicism as a philosophical movement started and soared in the Hellenistic period. Disquisition on cynicism concerning architecture and architectural philosophy has been relatively neglected. This article addresses cynicism, delving into the philosophy of the cynics’ lifestyle and beliefs vis-à-vis less is more (minimalism), which was an epigram adopted by Mies Van Der Rohe in his architectural designs and buildings. Standing on the shoulder of simplicity, as the common denominator between cynicism and minimalism, the authors create an intercourse between philosophy and architecture through the appraisal of the philosophy of the Cynics and the architectural works of Mies Van Der Rohe. This further buttresses the innate need for continual interdisciplinary research works to unearth and expound more interesting synergy in human architectural and philosophical experiences.

Review of The Architecture of Disability Buildings, Cities, and Landscapes Beyond Access

David Gissen’s slim but packed The Architecture of Disability: Buildings, Cities, and Landscapes beyond Access hits hard, suggesting “an entirely different relationship between the apparatus of architecture and architects in their engagement with disabled people” (139). Using original site interpretation and archival research, what he means by “different” is an epistemological transformation of foundational architectural concepts. Gissen adopts the lens of impairment and techniques of defamiliarization to upend durable architectural beliefs and position disability critique at the heart of contemporary architectural and urban debates. This is not new—the work of Elizabeth Guffey, Sun-Young Park, David Serlin, to name a few, offer penetrating takes on how disability theory can expose hidden cultural values and systems. However, unlike these scholars’ focus on designs for disability, Gissen’s reinterpretations of places for the general public suggest a more holistic rewriting of architectural history. Also, where most disability critiques of architecture emerge from other fields such as geography or disability studies, The Architecture of Disability offers the field’s first broad, serious engagement with disability. That this is JAE’s first review of a book on disability confirms architecture’s lag in treating impairment as fundamental to design discourse.

‘Dirt Hovels’ and Cultural Heritage: The Eradication and Inheritance of the Icelandic Turf House

This article explores conflicting views of the Icelandic turf house and how these views relate to notions of corrupt architecture and so-called ‘difficult’ heritage. First, we define the concepts of corrupt and difficult architecture and address their relationship to the discussion of heritage. We assert that this theoretical discussion is highly applicable as regards turf houses, plans for their eradication and measures to protect and preserve them. Next, we examine general attitudes towards turf buildings and several public campaigns to eradicate them, whereby turf is defined as an obstacle to cultural and social progress. Finally, we explore public measures to protect the Icelandic turf house, focusing mainly on the efforts of the National Museum of Iceland, which has a leading role in policy development and conservation of Icelandic architectural heritage.

Recycling in Islamic Perspective Case Study of Architectural Works Using Waste Building Materials

Waste is a serious environmental problem worldwide. Waste can refer to various types of materials or substances resulting from human, industrial, agricultural and other activities. The waste problem covers aspects such as management, environmental impact and human health. In this paper, an Islamic perspective on waste recycling in building architecture is discussed. Case studies involving architectural works with the use of building waste reflect the principle of recycling in practice. Waste buildings are materials or structures which have been retired for their original purpose but which still have the potential to be reused with little or no major alterations. Architectural works such as households, community facilities, or even commercial buildings can use used materials that are still usable to reduce demand for new resources. However, in implementing the recycling concept in architecture, it is necessary to pay attention to several aspects, such as structural safety, quality of used materials, and compatibility with the surrounding environment. Islam encourages the use of resources wisely and in moderation, as well as minimizing negative impacts on the environment. This is the responsibility of humans as caliphs on earth to preserve the environment and to maintain the balance of the ecosystem. as well as compatibility with the surrounding environment.

Regionalism in Design Development Contemporary Mosque Architecture in Indonesia

The architectural designs of contemporary mosques in Indonesia show varied designs, including international modern designs or Middle Eastern-Indian-European models with geometric patterns. This condition indirectly shows that modernism or neo-modernism which is rooted in Middle Eastern culture as a cultural expression is considered to be more representative of Islamic culture than local culture. From the perspective of architectural design and cultural thinking, this is interesting to explore to find out how far regionalism is an alternative for developing Islamic architectural identity in Indonesia. The method used in the research is a qualitative approach by observing and comparing mosque architectural phenomena and exploring architectural elements. The results of the study show that regionalism can accommodate the creative development of Islamic architecture which embodies the values​​of Islamic teachings and environmental identity, the historical context of the people and the spirit of progress contained in the expression of modernity. This concept of thought is in line with al-urf's thinking which provides opportunities for local architectural elements to become part of typical Islamic culture. This design thinking is expressed in the form of post-modern architecture: (1) An architectural concept that integrates local and international cultural forms in concrete form, (2) An architectural concept that emphasizes spirited abstraction in accommodating the values​​of Islamic teachings and local culture in the aim of obtaining optimal benefits. Key words: al-urf, local culture, regionalism.
