Rain water harvesting involves collecting and storing rainwater for beneficial use. It can be collected from rooftops or on land surfaces and stored in tanks, reservoirs, or recharged into groundwater. Properly implemented rooftop rainwater harvesting provides a sustainable water source, recharges groundwater, and has many environmental benefits. An effective system includes gutters and downpipes to collect water and direct it into a storage tank with filters to remove debris. Excess water can be recharged into the ground to further augment groundwater supplies.
Rainwater harvesting is the process of collecting, conveying, and storing rainwater for beneficial uses like irrigation, production, washing, and drinking water. It involves capturing rainwater primarily from rooftops and surface runoff and storing it for direct use or recharging into groundwater. RWH helps conserve and supplement existing water resources and can potentially provide an improved quality water source at a low cost. However, performance depends on climate and collected rainwater quality may be impacted by external factors like pollution, requiring ongoing maintenance.

Influenza is a common viral infection of the upper respiratory tract caused by influenza viruses type A, B, or C. Type A is the most virulent and commonly causes pandemics by undergoing antigenic drift or shift. It spreads through coughing/sneezing droplets or surfaces. The virus infects respiratory cells, hijacks the cell to replicate itself, then buds and spreads to new cells. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, and cough. Most people recover in 1-2 weeks but some develop pneumonia. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and using antiviral drugs in early infection. Vaccines target the HA and NA surface proteins to stimulate antibodies for protection against seasonal strains. Pandemics can occur when novel strains

Influenza is a common viral infection of the upper respiratory tract caused by influenza viruses types A, B, or C. Type A is the most virulent and is commonly associated with human disease. The virus particle attaches to and enters host cells, hijacking their machinery to replicate new virus particles which bud out and infect other cells. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, and cough. While most people recover in 1-2 weeks, some can develop pneumonia. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and using antiviral drugs within 2 days. Vaccines containing inactivated virus strains help the immune system develop antibodies to fight infection. New pandemic strains can emerge through antigenic drift of seasonal virus mutations or antigenic shift of novel virus combinations

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming PipelinesChristina Lin
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
