1) The document proposes using RFID technology to improve scheduling and route planning for pickup and delivery of medical instruments at a hospital.
2) Currently, the pickup and delivery process lacks visibility, has no standard processes, and relies on manual recording. RFID technology could provide real-time visibility of operations to optimize scheduling and routing.
3) An RFID-enabled system is proposed to automatically trigger replenishment requests, record information electronically, estimate employee workload, and enable dynamic routing - improving efficiency of the pickup and delivery process.

The existing and future role of RFID technology in Dairy Supply Chain from Fa...Shuhab Tariq
The aim of the project is to focus on the existing and future role of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology in the food supply chain from farm to fork, i.e. tracing the journey of food products right from the farm to the consumer’s plate.
Since the topic is so broad, for the purpose of clarity and in-depth discussion, this project will narrow it down to “Dairy Supply Chain”, wherein the entire supply chain for dairy products will be studied and analyzed.
Interestingly, not much research has been done in this area, and thus, it provides a good scope for research and analysis.

Intelligent students tracking system in campus based on rfid and zigbeeIAEME Publication
With the rapid increase in the number of institutions as well as number of students in every
institution, it is very difficult to monitor whether the students are attending the classes as per the time
table or not. Even the students are in the campus but not present in the classes during the class hour.
In the existing system, presence of students in the class is being monitored by taking attendance
manually in the class. In this paper, we propose an intelligent student tracking system based on RFID
and ZigBee wireless network. The proposed system reads the RFID tags data through RFID reader,
and then sends it to PC node by a custom wireless protocol on the ZigBee. PC node gives
corresponding warning or hints by the result of matching master-slave RFID tag information. Here
each and every student is assigned with different RFID tags with individual tags numbers and the
RFID readers are placed in campus at different locations which identifies the persons coming to that
location by reading tag numbers of the students and intimates to the control room about their status.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
