    Abstract In contemporary society, agriculture is progressively embracing technological innovations called Precision Agriculture. The utilization of various pest control and disease management strategies is of considerable importance in the surveillance of plants. The current framework encounters multiple challenges. The pest control and disease surveillance system employs a solitary Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) to manage the diverse array of connected sensors. Hence, this paper proposes utilizing the Distributed and Analogous Simulation Framework (DASF) in conjunction with the Internet of Things (IoT) to address the issue of pest control and diseases in plants. The approach reduces the strain on a specific GPU, effectively allocates the computational tasks across all accessible GPUs concurrently, and ensures continuous data transmission to the dashboards even in the event of GPU malfunction. The implementation of this procedure is anticipated to result in a reduction in overall system performance. In the DASF multi-threading framework, the allocation of tasks to particular auxiliary cores is performed by each GPU unit. The execution of the different functions within this system is allocated among four levels: disease management, pest recognition and control, output operations, and input functions. The data is analyzed concurrently and managed in a proficient and regulated manner. The proposed system demonstrates a significant enhancement in performance measures, with a value of 99.05%.

    Abstract Agriculture is widely recognized as a significant and indispensable occupation on a global scale. The current imperative is to optimize agricultural practices and progressively transition towards smart agriculture. The Internet of Things (IoT) technology has dramatically enhanced people’s daily lives via diverse applications across several domains. Previous studies have yet to effectively incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) with sensor technology to provide comprehensive guidance to agricultural practitioners, hindering their ability to achieve good outcomes. This research offers Farmers’ Toolkit with four layers: sensor, network, service, and application. This toolkit aims to facilitate the implementation of a smart farming system while effectively managing energy resources. With a specific emphasis on the application layer, the toolkit uses a deep learning methodology to construct a fertilizer recommendation system that aligns with the expert’s perspective. This study utilizes IoT devices and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) methods to enhance the efficiency and speed of recommending appropriate crops to farmers. The recommendation process considers several criteria: temperature, yearly precipitation, land area, prior crop history, and available resources. The identification of undesirable vegetation on agricultural fields, namely the detection of weeds, is carried out using drone technology equipped with frame-capturing capabilities and advanced deep-learning algorithms. The findings demonstrate an accuracy rate of 94%, precision rate of 92%, recall rate of 96%, and F1 score of 94%. The toolkit for farmers alleviates physical labor and time expended on various agricultural tasks while enhancing overall land productivity, mitigating potential crop failures in specific soil conditions, and minimizing crop damage inflicted by weeds.

    Abstract Ferroelectric thin films incorporating different compositional layers have emerged as a promising approach for enhancing properties and performance of electronic devices. In recent years, superlattices utilizing various interactions between their constituent layers have been used to reveal unusual properties, such as improper ferroelectricity, charged domain walls, and negative capacitance in conventional ferroelectrics. Herein, we report a symmetry scheme based on the interface engineering in which the inherent cell-doubling symmetry allowed atomic distortions (phonons) in any vertically aligned superlattice activate novel interface couplings among atomic distortions of different symmetries and fundamentally improve the ferroelectric properties. In a materialized case, the ionic size difference between Hf

    Abstract TB continues to be one of the major public health threats. BCG is the only available vaccine against TB and confers significant protection against the childhood disease. However, the protective efficacy of BCG against adult pulmonary TB, which represents a larger burden of disease, is highly variable. It has been suggested that prior exposure to environmental mycobacteria (EMb) mitigates the anti-TB efficacy of BCG by blocking its duplication or masking its immunogenicity. However, its effectiveness against childhood TB and failure of repeated administration to provide additional benefit against pulmonary TB, suggest of some other mechanisms for the variable efficacy of BCG against the pulmonary disease. Importantly, TB is a heterogeneous disease occurring in different forms and having distinct mechanisms of pathogenesis. While inability of the immune system to contain the bacilli is responsible for TB pathogenesis in infants, an aggravated immune response to

    Abstract Climate change has been regarded as a threat to the human species on the earth. Greenhouse gasses are leading to increased temperatures on Earth besides impacting the humanity. These atmospheric conditions have shown to alter the release pattern of pollens and can change the timing and magnitude of pollen release with flowering plants. As pollen is responsible for respiratory allergies in humans, so climate change can adversely affect human health in susceptible individuals. In this review, we highlight the association between climate change, increased prevalence and severity of asthma, and related allergic diseases. Increased air pollution can alter the production of local and regional pollen. This altered pattern depends on bioclimatic parameters. As simulated with a pollen-release model and future bioclimatic data, warmer temperatures lead to an increased pollen count in some specific locations and for longer periods. Thus, anticipation of a future allergic disease burden can help public health agencies in planning to develop strategies in mitigating the unprecedented health challenges expected in future years.
