Signage display, which is used to convey message or information, has evolved from conventional to digital display. Conventional signage which may be hand written or printed papers are being wiped out by digital displays used by industries because of its attractive features of efficient involvement of consumers. However, extensive use of digital signage displays contributes a notable amount of power consumption (about 1000W for a 14inch × 48inch display) of a region. In this literature, we have devised a novel approach for reducing power consumption of digital signage as well as satisfying human visibility by exploiting duty cycle. Our proposed technique is capable of relinquishing a significant amount (about 14.54% in comparison with existing display system) of power consumption occurred by digital display by keeping an eye on expected human vision.

An effective approach to develop location-based augmented reality information...IJECEIAES
Using location-based augmented reality (AR) for pedestrian navigation can greatly improve user action to reduce the travel time. Pedestrian navigation differs in many ways from the conventional navigation system used in a car or other vehicles. A major issue with using location-based AR for navigation to a specific landmark is their quality of usability, especially if the active screen is overcrowded with the augmented POI markers which were overlap each other at the same time. This paper describes the user journey map approach that led to new insights about how users were using location-based AR for navigation. These insights led to a deep understanding of challenges that user must face when using location-based AR application for pedestrian navigation purpose, and more generally, they helped the development team to appreciate the variety of user experience in software requirement specification phase. To prove our concept, a prototype of intuitive location-based AR was built to be compared with existing standard-location based AR. The user evaluation results reveal that the overall functional requirements which are gathered from user journey have same level of success rate criteria when compared with standard location-based AR. Nevertheless, the field study participants highlighted the extended features in our prototype could significantly enhance the user action on locating the right object in particular place when compared with standard location-based AR application (proved with the required time).

A one decade survey of autonomous mobile robot systems IJECEIAES
Recently, autonomous mobile robots have gained popularity in the modern world due to their relevance technology and application in real world situations. The global market for mobile robots will grow significantly over the next 20 years. Autonomous mobile robots are found in many fields including institutions, industry, business, hospitals, agriculture as well as private households for the purpose of improving day-to-day activities and services. The development of technology has increased in the requirements for mobile robots because of the services and tasks provided by them, like rescue and research operations, surveillance, carry heavy objects and so on. Researchers have conducted many works on the importance of robots, their uses, and problems. This article aims to analyze the control system of mobile robots and the way robots have the ability of moving in real-world to achieve their goals. It should be noted that there are several technological directions in a mobile robot industry. It must be observed and integrated so that the robot functions properly: Navigation systems, localization systems, detection systems (sensors) along with motion and kinematics and dynamics systems. All such systems should be united through a control unit; thus, the mission or work of mobile robots are conducted with reliability.

Important task of the Reporting is Data Collection.The Geo-spatial Data is used to Indicate the Data along with the geographic component.This means that the data set have loca- tion information tied to them such as geographical data in the form of coordinates,address,city,or ZIP code.User report to the organization by using the same data and organization solve that problem.
(Crestani et al., 2004) The proliferation of mobile devices and thMargaritoWhitt221
(Crestani et al., 2004) The proliferation of mobile devices and the ubiquity of computing and networking technologies have revolutionized how we access information. Mobile and ubiquitous information access is now an essential issue in human-computer interaction, information retrieval, and computer-supported cooperative work.
The International Workshop on Mobile and Ubiquitous Information Access (MobileHCI) was held in Udine, Italy, on September 8, 2003. It included user interface design issues, novel interaction techniques, context-aware applications, collaborative systems, and social implications of mobile computing. They provide a snapshot of the state-of-the-art in this rapidly evolving field. They will interest researchers and practitioners in human-computer interaction, information retrieval, and computer-supported cooperative work.
The workshop was organized by Fabio Crestani, Mark Dunlop, and Stefano Mizzaro. It was in conjunction with the Ninth International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI International 2003).
(Bace et al.,2020) Part of this is that it's challenging to quantify visual attention in mobile HCI. In a recent paper, Bace et al. tried to address this challenge by quantifying how often and for how long users look at their mobile devices.
The researchers found that, on average, users look at their devices around 46 times per day. They also found that users spend more time looking at their instruments when using them for communication purposes, such as text messaging or phone calls. This suggests a need for further research into how mobile devices can be designed to capture better and hold users' attention.
The researchers also found that users look at their devices more often in a social setting, such as a meeting or a party. This suggests that mobile devices may be distracting us from our social interactions.
In conclusion, the study provides valuable insights into how we can better understand and quantify visual attention in mobile HCI.
(Oulasvirta et al.,2005) Mobile HCI 2004 was a seminal conference on human-computer interaction with mobile technology. The meeting was highly successful, and its impact is still felt today.
The theme of the conference was "Experience and Reflection." This theme was reflected in the papers presented at the meeting, which covered a wide range of topics related to mobile HCI. The papers addressed user experience, design principles, interaction techniques, and evaluation methods in addition to these technical papers, keynote speeches, and panel discussions on various aspects of mobile HCI.
The Mobile HCI 2004 conference was an important event in the history of mobile HCI. It helped establish the field as a central research area, and its papers have significantly impacted how mobile HCI is conducted today.

Eye(I) Still Know! – An App for the Blind Built using Web and AIDr. Amarjeet Singh
This paper proposes eye(I) still know!, a voice control solution for the visually impaired people. The main purpose is even though the blind cannot see they can still know where to go and what to do! Nearby 60% of total blind population across the world is present in India. In a time where no one likes to rely on anyone, this is a small effort to make the blind independent individuals. This can be achieved using wireless communication, voice recognition and image scanning. The application with the use of object identification will priorly inform about the barriers in the path.
The software will use the camera of the device and scan all the obstacles with their corresponding distances from the user. This will be followed by audio instructions through audio output of the device.
This will efficiently direct the user through his/her way.
Visualization of cartographic systems in mobile devices is a challenge due to the its own
limitations to show all the relevant information that the user needs on the screen. Within this paper we review
current state-of- the-art technological solutions to face this problem and we classify them in a novel typology. In
addition, it is shown an example case of a developed system for a logistic company specialized in dangerous
goods. The system is able to calculate optimal routes and communicate the drivers the best path in order to
achieve a great management of the company resources

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
