The Internet of Things: applications and security metrics with the Ugandan perspective

As the Internet of Things (IoT) increasingly becomes a reality, thousands of devices get connected to IoT platforms in smart cities and regions. These devices will actively send data updates to cloud-based platforms, as part of smart applications in various domains like healthcare, traffic, and education among others. Therefore, it is important to assess the ability of modern IoT systems to handle high rates of data updates coming from devices. The paper aims at developing metrics that can be used to assess the IoT cybersecurity status of a country in terms of the Intensity, Readiness, and Adoption with a special focus of Uganda as a case study. To achieve this, a design science approach was employed. Data were collected from a sample of 127 respondents from 7 firms around Kampala district. Finally, the impact of the proposed metrics is demonstrated through an application to the IoT assessment model.

Design, development, and manufacturing of hydraulically operated coil spring compressor for MacPherson type suspension system

The purpose of this tool is for use on, a MacPherson-type independent suspension assembly of a vehicle, the tool includes upper and lower C-shaped pressure brackets which for receiving spaced coils of the spring intermediate the opposed connected ends of the spring. Lower bracket is linearly adjustable for initial alignment with the spaced spring coils. A bottle jack is positioned below the lower bracket. Hydraulic pressure is provided through bottle jack mounted on the base for moving the bracket toward one another to compress the spring and for releasing the spring.

Lite -pay – Finding new escaping inflation in Lite-coin

Lite- coin Core is one of the free software which enables the use of this currency. Lite coin is a peer-to-peer Internet currency that facilitates instant, no charge payments to anyone in the world. Lite-coin is a free/libre, third-party payment network without any central authorities. Mathematics secures the network and permits individuals to control their own finances. Lite-coin traits faster transaction confirmation times and improved storage efficiency than the leading math-based currency, Lite-coin is a proven medium of commerce complementary to Bitcoin. Lite pay is a tool to admit payments from customer anywhere on earth. Lite-coin differs from Bit coin in the total number of coins that each cryptocurrency produces. Lite-coin distinguishes itself. The Bitcoin never exceeds 21 million coins whereas Lite-coin can accommodate up to 84 million coins.

Twitter data analysis for Indian election

Social media use is at an all-time historic high for India, so we considered one popular social media platform, Twitter, and tried to see if we could predict how a group of people felt about an issue by only analyzing posts from social media. For our research, we looked at tweets that focused on the 2019 Indian Prime Minister Election. Using these tweets, we tried to find a correlation between a person’s tweets and whom he is going to vote. We wrote a program to collect tweets that mentioned one of the candidates, then developed a sentiment algorithm to see which candidate the tweet favored, or if it was neutral. After collecting the data from Twitter and comparing it to the results of the Electoral College, we found that Twitter sentiments corresponded with 73.8% of the actual outcome of the Electoral College. The overall sentiment of all tweets collected leaned more positively towards BJP than it did for Congress. Using the tweets that were collected, we also try to predict at how different geographical locations affected a candidate’s popularity.

Timetable Generation– An optimal solution to the multi-constrained problem

Timetabling is the appointing of an occasion to a specific timeslot in a timetable. Timetabling turns into an issue when the allocating task turns out to be difficult to be inferred where certain particular prerequisites should be satisfied. Genetic Algorithm (GA) develop as one mechanization timetabling strategy to take care of timetabling issue via seeking arrangement in multi-indicates and the capacity refine the current answer for a superior arrangement. Genetic algorithm is a metaheuristic that copies the method of natural selection. It might be performed in multiple different ways with different types but it will all follow the same concept. This research aims to create an artificial intelligence through the use of evolutionary algorithm, specifically genetic algorithm combined with adaptive and elitist traits that can generate a university schedule timetable with the goal of generating a valid and as optimal as possible solution with certain constraints.

A study on smart irrigation system using IoT

Agriculture plays an important role in the life of a Gross Domestic Product of every country. It is the backbone of economy of every country. Many problems have been found in this field. As the most serious problem is the shortage of water resources for the present as well as for future generation. It is necessary to adopt some smart techniques to preserve the water. The most highlighted feature of this paper is how smartly and automatically control the water supply to the agriculture fields according to the need. For this, sensors used are soil moisture sensor and DHT-11 temperature sensor. All the information is sent on the farmer mobile application using Wi-Fi Relay Module and Arduino UNO R3.
