This document proposes using reinforcement learning to optimize routing for electric vehicle fleets performing last-mile deliveries. The approach models the electric vehicle routing problem as a Markov decision process to learn optimal routing policies. The model considers constraints like vehicle capacity, customer time windows, and optional energy delivery to the grid. The reinforcement learning algorithm trains a neural network to select the best vehicle-to-node assignments that minimize trip costs while satisfying constraints. An example illustrates how the algorithm may route two vehicles over time to service customers and an optional energy delivery.

Balancing the line by using heuristic method based on cpm in salbp –a case studyeSAT Journals
Abstract
In mass production systems, line balancing plays a great role, but this is not easy even if it is a simple straight line. So, in order to
solve these problems Heuristic methods are very much desirable. It is also found that Heuristic methods play a great role in the
formation of metaheuristic methods.Therefore it is very much important to use more efficient heuristic methods. In this research

Multiple Vehicle Motion Planning: An Infinite Diminsion Newton Optimization M...AJHaeusler
In this invited talk at the LARSyS Summer School 2014, we describe a numerical algorithm for multiple vehicle motion planning that addresses explicitly temporal and spatial specifications, as well as energy-related constraints. As a motivating example, we cite the case where a group of vehicles is tasked to reach a number of target points at the same time (simultaneous arrival problem) and avoid inter-vehicle as well as vehicle/obstacle collision, subject to the constraint that the overall energy required for vehicle motion be minimized.
The methodology adopted builds on a numerical method for solving optimal control problems that is known as the PRojection Operator based Newton method for Trajectory Optimization (PRONTO)—a method that avoids the transcription phase typical in direct methods for numerical optimal control and that employs an infinite dimension Newton method to achieve second order convergence of the trajectory optimization problem.
With the theoretical set-up adopted, the vehicle dynamics are taken explicitly into account at the planning level. Thus, in contrast to some of the planning methods available in the literature, the method proposed allows for the direct incorporation of dynamical constraints imposed by the physical characteristics of the vehicles, motion actuators, and even energy sources (e.g. batteries). Should the problem to be solved be feasible, the method yields energy-optimal trajectories without the need to separate the steps of path planning and trajectory generation, as is customary in many of the motion planning methods described in the literature. Restrictive system properties such as differential flatness are not required.

For energy efficient GPS sensing in delay-tolerant applications, the possibility of offloading a few milliseconds of raw signal samples and leveraging the greater processing power of the cloud for obtaining a position fix is being actively investigated.
In an attempt to reduce the energy cost of this data offloading operation, we propose Sparse-GPS: a new computing framework for GPS acquisition via sparse approximation.
Within the framework, GPS signals can be efficiently compressed by random ensembles. The sparse acquisition information, pertaining to the visible satellites that are embedded within these limited measurements, can subsequently be recovered by our proposed representation dictionary.
By extensive empirical evaluations, we demonstrate the acquisition quality and energy gains of Sparse-GPS. We show that it is twice as energy efficient than offloading uncompressed data, and has 5-10 times lower energy costs than standalone GPS; with a median positioning accuracy of 40 m.
The Internet of Things, or the IoT is a vision for a ubiquitous society wherein people and “Things” are connected in an immersively networked computing environment, with the connected “Things” providing utility to people/enterprises and their digital shadows, through intelligent social and commercial services. However, translating this idea to a conceivable reality is a work in progress for close to two decades; mostly, due to assumptions favoured more towards a “Things”-centric rather than a “Human”-centric approach coupled with the evolution/deployment ecosystem of IoT technologies.
Estimates on the spread and economic impact of IoT over the next few years are in the neighborhood of 50 billion or more connected “Things” with a market exceeding $350 billion through smarter cities and infrastructure, intelligent appliances, and healthier lifestyles. While many of these potential benefits from IoT are real and achievable, the road to accomplish these may need an rethink.
In the last few years, there has been a realization that an effective architecture for IoT (particularly, for emerging nations with limited technology penetration at the national scale) that is both affordable and sustainable should be based on tangible technology advances in the present, ubiquitous capabilities of the present/future, and practical application scenarios of social and entrepreneurial value. Hence, there is a revitalized interest to rethink the above assumptions, and this exercise has led to a more plausible set of scenarios wherein humans along with data, communication and devices play key roles.
In this presentation, an attempt is made to disaggregate these core problems; and offer a trajectory with a set of design paradigms for a renewed IoT ecosystem.
This presentation provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art study of wireless sensor networks(WSN) - based IoT MAC protocols, design guidelines that inspired these protocols,
as well as their drawbacks and shortcomings.
The document discusses challenges in analytics for big data. It notes that big data refers to data that exceeds the capabilities of conventional algorithms and techniques to derive useful value. Some key challenges discussed include handling the large volume, high velocity, and variety of data types from different sources. Additional challenges include scalability for hierarchical and temporal data, representing uncertainty, and making the results understandable to users. The document advocates for distributed analytics from the edge to the cloud to help address issues of scale.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
