In the recent times Microwave Radios have been a key technological source for establishing backhaul communication between the Hub Operations Centre to remote entities. Especially in the event of natural catastrophes where backhaul communication has to be established swiftly in less operational interval. Therefore this makes Microwave Radios to be the best adaptive solution to adopt in any natural calamity or manmade tragedy. Further Microwave radios can offer high data rate bandwidth for streaming of voice, video and data applications in Point to Point (PTP) and Point to Multi Point (PTMP) Mode of deployment. Thus which makes microwave radios an appropriate solution for deployment of High Bandwidth consumption applications. Authors in this research have proposed the use of different Microwave Radio Frequency Bands from 1 GHz to 10 GHz and Parabolic Dish antennas as per requirement of the application and scenario of deployment. Microwave net data throughput rates vary at different Radio Frequency Bands, Plus the Free Space Path Loss characteristics, Fade Margin, Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), Bit Error Rates (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) are also affected with increase and decrease of hop distance length between the transmitting and receiving antennas.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) started challenge for the new standard of lightweight encryption to meet the requirements of IoT devices. One of the requirements for the upcoming standard was resistance against side-channel attacks. This year, they chose ASCON as the winner from the final ten. In this work, we present an overview of each finalist and how ASCON stands against the other finalists regarding side-channel attacks resistance in the research to date.

Integrating artificial intelligence technologies into embedded systems requires efficient implementation of neural networks in hardware. The paper presents a Zynq 7020 FPGA implementation and evaluation of a middle-sized dense neural network based on approximate computation by linearly approximated functions. Three famous benchmarks were used for classification accuracy evaluation and hardware testing. We use our highly pipelined neural hardware architecture that takes weights from block RAMs to save logic resources and enables their update from the processing system. The architecture reaches excellent design scalability, allowing us to estimate the number of neurons implemented in programmable logic based on single-neuron resources. We reached nearly full chip utilization while preserving the high clock freuuency for the FPGA used.

One of the architectures supported by OpenJ9, the AArch64 platform, is widely used in electronic devices because of its reasonable price and resource efficiency. This work adds an optimization in the Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler of OpenJ9 for AArch64, that copies arrays efficiently. The optimizing JIT compiler function, arraycopy Evaluator, separates inlinable code for better performance. Making use of Vector Floating Point registers helps in copying up to 128 bits of any data type in a single load/store instruction. While copying, the situations where primitive values are copied or Garbage Collection checks are required to access the reference fields are handled. We evaluate the results using the BumbleBench Microbenchmarking test framework. We investigate the trace files and utilize the Perf tool to identify the causes of unexpected Benchmark results. We achieve an up to tenfold increase in performance.

Autonomous vehicles are nowadays gaining popularity in many different sectors, from automotive to aviation, and find application in increasingly complex and strategic contexts. In this domain, Obstacle Detection and Avoidance Systems (ODAS) are crucial and, since they are safety-critical systems, they must employ fault-detection and management techniques to maintain correct behavior. One of the most popular techniques to obtain a reliable system is the use of redundancy, both at the hardware and at the software levels. With the objective of improving fault-detection while producing little impact on the programmability of the system, this paper introduces a general and lightweight monitoring technique based on a user-directed observer design pattern, which aims at monitoring the validity of predicates over state variables of the algorithms in execution. This can increase the fault-detection capability and even anticipate the detection time of some faults that would be caught by replication only at later times. Results are evaluated on a real-world use-case from the railway domain, and show how the proposed fault-detection mechanism can increase the overall reliability of the system by up to 24.4% compared to replication alone in case of crowded scenarios over the entire tracking process, and up to 43.9% in specific phases.

This contribution describes a method for comparison exercise intensity (workload) based on oxygen consumption $(dot{boldsymbol{V}}boldsymbol{O}_{2})$ and carbon dioxide expenditure $(dot{boldsymbol{V}}boldsymbol{CO}_{mathbf{2}})$ during the bicycle ergometer and treadmill ergometer stress tests. During the stress test, values of heart rate (HR), pulmonary ventilation $(dot{boldsymbol{V}}boldsymbol{E})$, oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide expenditure were continuously measured from the start of the test until exhaustion. The main goal of the study was to find out whether it is possible to compare the size of the load intensity on a treadmill ergometer, where the load is characterized by the running speed and the incline of the treadmill, with the load on a bicycle ergometer, where the load is given in Watts. The results can also be used to possibly derive a mathematical model of the test subject. The derived dependencies were confirmed by a number of measurements.

This article describes the construction of digital twins based on flexible threads using applied computing on embedded (technological) computers. An overview of computing on embedded computers is presented. The problem is identified as the need to obtain additional information from sensors for building digital twins. The place of sensory information in event diagnostics is determined. The approach of information collection policies was applied to build digital twins that are described on several levels with detailing on each level. A digital twin of the train and each subway car was built using a template of a typical subway passenger car and a locomotive car. Several levels of digital twins' presentation have been proven effective. The use of fog computing made it possible to increase the speed of building a digital twin of the first level by 3.17 times, the detail representation of subsequent levels by 3.91 times, and the accuracy of determining events by 11.2%. This method can be applied not only to subway cars, but also to suburban trains, high-speed peregrine falcons, allegro, swallows, city trams and other public transport.

Smart grids have a growing role in today's society. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure their proper functioning at all time. While research already investigated the islanding of the electrical side of the smart grids, we look at this problem from a network security perspective, this network being very decentralized and highly communicant. To prevent the loss communication and a possible blackout of the sub-grid through islanding, we used a combination of the group authentication protocol and the lightweight verifiable secret sharing to propose an alternative authentication method. This method allows the different nodes to build trust as well as to identify and exclude malicious nodes trying to either join or prevent the group authentication. We also discuss the main security properties of our protocol and its limitations.
