A Multi-Tier MQTT Architecture with Multiple Brokers Based on Fog Computing for Securing Industrial IoT by Hassan Kurdi, Vijey Thayananthan

“…Message queue telemetry transport (MQTT) is one of the promising M2M protocols used in the IoT that could encounter such issues because it relies on a central broker in the cloud and implements a heavyweight authentication mechanism based on TLS. Therefore, this paper proposes an MQTT architecture with multi-tier brokers based on fog computing, where each broker is deployed with an authentication manager. …”

The first distributed-mass high-performance programmable optoelectromechanical steerable motion-wave sensors focused on sophisticated biomedical applications by Ali Abdulsattar Hussein

“…Abstract This paper introduces the first high-performance distributed-mass acoustic sensor made of cascaded differential phase shift suspended slot waveguide sections in a Mach–Zehnder interferometer optical transducer circuit. The heavyweight seismic mass used in traditional optoelectromechanical sensors is replaced by an fg lightweight coupling arm yielding an extra compact fast responding structure enabling utilizing over $$64$$ 64 cascaded sections and resulting in enhancing the performance by hundreds of times. …”

A Framework for Survey Planning Using Portable Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (<i>p</i>UAVs) in Coastal Hydro-Environment by Ha Linh Trinh, Hieu Trung Kieu, Hui Ying Pak, Dawn Sok Cheng Pang, Angel Anisa Cokro, Adrian Wing-Keung Law

“…This study established a comprehensive framework for the planning of efficient UAV deployments in coastal areas, which was based on recent on-site survey experiences with a portable unmanned aerial vehicle (<i>p</i>UAV) that was carrying a heavyweight spectral sensor. The framework was classified into three main categories: (i) pre-survey considerations (i.e., administrative preparation and UAV airframe details); (ii) execution strategies (i.e., parameters and contingency planning); and (iii) environmental effects (i.e., weather and marine conditions). …”

More time for judo matches? Analysis of type of techniques, time, scores, and penalties in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games by Rafael Lima Kons, Marcus F. Agostinho, João Paulo Lopes-Silva, Danilo França Conceição dos Santos, Daniele Detanico, Emerson Franchini

“…The majority of matches ended in the 3–4 min (χ2 = 204.16; p &lt; 0.001), scores were mostly awarded in the regular time and penalties in the golden score (χ2 = 48.72; p &lt; 0.001), and few matches ended by the golden score for heavyweight athletes (χ2 = 15.16; p = 0.019). Therefore, a high number of matches ended in the golden score in the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, with a high number of penalties in this competition.…”
