Concerns about the impact of climate change on agricultural systems have heightened, particularly in regions where crop cultivation is essential for economic stability and sustenance. This research addresses a critical gap in understanding by investigating how climate change influences Tanzania’s bananas, a vital component of the country’s agricultural sector. The study used a multiple regression model to analyze the correlation between bananas and key climate variables in Tanzania, the results showed gradual decrease in bananas. Specifically, the climate variables, including precipitation (X1), soil moisture (X2), minimum temperature (X3), maximum temperature (X4), and relative humidity (X5) have coefficients 0.0206, −0.0085, 4.8328, −1.6594, and −0.0991, respectively. In this case, a large positive coefficient and a negligible negative coefficient show that the independent variable greatly influences the yield of the bananas. Additionally, the study utilize two powerful global sensitivity analysis methods, Sobol’ Sensitivity Indices and Response Surface Methodology, to comprehensively explore the sensitivity of bananas to climate variables. So, these methods revealed that minimum temperature, precipitation and soil moisture have the most impact on bananas and affect the crop’s production variability. Uncertainty quantification was performed using Monte Carlo simulation, estimating uncertainties in model parameters to enhance the reliability of the findings. This research not only contributes to our broader understanding of how climate change impacts bananas but also offers practical policy suggestions tailored to Tanzania’s unique context, ensuring resilience and sustainability in the face of environmental changes. The outcomes of this study carry significance for policymakers, stakeholders, and farmers, providing actionable insights to shape adaptive agricultural strategies. By bridging the gap between climate change and bananas, this research offers valuable contributions to the broader field of agricultural sustainability.

Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) and rabies are eminent zoonotic afflictions that significantly impact global economic stability and public health, with pronounced effects in developing nations. These diseases continuously pressure public health systems and obstruct efforts to improve livestock productivity and export capabilities. Studying the joint dynamics of bTB and rabies involves notable mathematical complexities due to the differences in their transmission mechanisms. Moreover, while there is some overlap among animal populations at risk for bTB and rabies, the exact proportion of animals susceptible to both diseases remains unspecified. In this work, we provide a simplified fractional-order optimal control model that integrates the dynamics of bTB and rabies co-infection. We determine the basic reproduction numbers for bovine tuberculosis R0T and rabies (R0R), as well as the overall reproduction number for the model R=max{R0T,R0R}. The qualitative analysis reveals that when R<1, the disease-free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable. We implement optimal control analysis to identify the best strategies for preventing each disease separately and their co-infection. The optimal control problem is solved numerically utilizing a forward–backward predict-evaluate correct-evaluate (PECE) algorithm implemented in Matlab software. The simulation results show that strategy E (i.e., implementation of all optimal controls) is significantly more effective in managing bovine tuberculosis but less effective in controlling rabies and co-infection. Conversely, strategy B (i.e., applying vaccination and removal of optimal controls for animals affected by rabies) provides satisfactory optimal control results across the three infection scenarios.

Droop control in grid-forming converters using a fractional-order PI controller: A power system transient analysis

The integration of renewable energy sources in modern power grids introduces challenges in ensuring stable and efficient operation, especially during transient conditions and disturbances. One of the primary issues is the inadequate transient response of conventional droop control strategies in grid-forming (GFM) converters, which can impair system stability and performance under unbalanced load conditions. This article addresses these issues by introducing a fractional-order PI (FOPI) control strategy for droop control of GFM converters, aimed at improving the transient response and enhancing the overall stability of the system. The FOPI controller’s design allows for more flexible tuning of dynamic behaviors compared to traditional integer-order controllers, making it particularly effective for bolstering stability and fault tolerance. To optimize the parameters of the FOPI controller, continuous Monte Carlo simulation is used, focusing on performance under unbalanced load disturbances. The controller’s effectiveness is assessed using the Integral of Squared Error (ISE) and Integral of Squared Control Output (ISCO) metrics to balance accuracy and control effort. The simulation results under two fault scenarios demonstrate that the FOPI controllers significantly enhance the transient response and fault tolerance. In case 1, replacing the PI controllers with the FOPI controllers reduces error by 65% and improves energy efficiency by 16%. In case 2, FOPI controllers achieve an error reduction of 83% and an improvement in energy efficiency 15%. These findings highlight the effectiveness of FOPI controllers in improving control accuracy and efficiency in fault conditions.

Efficient task scheduling and computational offloading optimization with federated learning and blockchain in mobile cloud computing
Q3 Mathematics Pub Date : 2025-01-07 DOI: 10.1016/j.rico.2025.100524

Smartphones and other mobile device users are becoming increasingly susceptible to malicious applications or apps that compromise user privacy. Malicious applications are more invasive than required because they require less authorization to operate them. The Android platform is more vulnerable to attacks since it is open-source, allows third-party app stores and it has extensive app screening. Thus the usage of mobile cloud applications has also expanded due to android platform. The mobile apps are useful for e-transportation, augmented reality, 2D and 3D games, e-health care and education. Consequently, maintaining MCC security and optimization of resources according to the task becomes significant task. Though recent research has been focused in the area of task scheduling, supporting multiple objectives still becomes a significant issue due to the Non-deterministic Polynomial (NP) hard problem. In this paper, Federated Learning with Blockchain Technology (FLBCT) is introduced for Microservice-based Mobile Cloud Computing Applications (MSCMCC). Mobile app permissions dataset has to be offloaded to a mobile cloud and protected using FL and BCT. FL permit mobile users to train models without sending raw data to third-party servers. FL is also used to trains the data across various decentralized devices holding of samples without exchanging them. BCT is introduced for enhancing data traceability, trust, security and transparency among participating companies. Resource matching, task sequencing, and task scheduling are major steps of Optimization Task Scheduling based Computational Offloading (OTSCO) framework. OTSCO framework increases application efficiency and gives the successful resource constraints to increase application-based efficiency, tasks are executed under deadline, and minimize application cost. The proposed system has a lower overhead of 20.14%, lesser boot time of 20.47 ms, lesser CPU usage of 0.45%, failure task ratio of the suggested system is 2.52%. It shows that the proposed system is easily applicable to Task Scheduling, and gives more security on MCC.

Iterative methodology has been demonstrated to be an achievement in the age of fractals. A novel method based on the viscosity approximation approach, one of the most popular iterative techniques for identifying non-linear operator fixed points, for visualizing Mandelbrot and Julia sets for a complex polynomial G(z)=zm+az+b, where z is a complex variable, mN{1} and a,b are parameters, is presented in this paper. Using the proposed approximation method, we establish a novel escape criterion for producing Julia and Mandelbrot sets. This method yields biomorphs for any complex function. Additionally, we visualize the sets using the escape time approach and the suggested iteration. Then, using graphical and numerical experiments, we explore how the shape of the resulting sets changes depending on the iteration parameters. The examples show that this transformation can be highly complex, and we can acquire a wide range of shapes.

Power amplifier characterization is an important process that is used to design and optimize PA circuits, and to troubleshoot problems with existing PA circuits. Measured input and output signals are used to determine the key parameters of a PA. However, PA characterization can be challenging due to the nonlinearity of PAs and the high frequencies at which they are often operated. This paper presents a comprehensive characterization of a power amplifier (PA) using measurement-based techniques. The study focuses on comparing the performance of memoryless and polynomial memory models in accurately predicting the PA's behavior. Results demonstrate that the polynomial memory model consistently outperforms the memoryless model, particularly at lower bandwidths. Key findings include the significant impact of memory effects on the PA's nonlinearity and the moderate influence of bandwidth on model accuracy. The proposed methodology provides a valuable framework for characterizing PAs and optimizing their performance in various applications. The results obtained indicated that for the OFDM signals with varying bandwidths, the time-based error as a percentage RMS for the nonlinear memoryless model was approximately 6 %, which is roughly greater than the inaccuracy of the polynomial memory model by three times, which is approximately 2 %.

This study introduces a nonlinear control strategy to enhance the energy management of electrical power systems, addressing the inherent limitations of traditional linear PI controllers. The proposed approach incorporates a variable gain that dynamically adjusts based on the system error, amplifying the PI controller’s responsiveness without causing output saturation. By introducing quadratic error terms through the gain adjustment, the controller achieves nonlinear behavior. When the system error is significant, the gain increases to expedite correction; as the error approaches zero, the gain decreases, allowing the PI controller to maintain stability around the reference. This adaptive behavior eliminates the need for a derivative component, effectively circumventing challenges posed by electromagnetic noise and rapid system dynamics. A comparative analysis between the proposed nonlinear PI controller and a conventional PI controller is conducted within a photovoltaic microgrid framework. The results highlight the nonlinear controller’s superior performance in achieving robust and accurate control.

The results highlight the nonlinear controller’s superior performance in achieving robust and accurate control.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34733,"journal":{"name":"Results in Control and Optimization","volume":"18 ","pages":"Article 100514"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143176361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding issues and challenges posed by LDoS, FRC attacks on cloud environment
Q3 Mathematics Pub Date : 2024-12-25 DOI: 10.1016/j.rico.2024.100512

Cloud computing has taken the world by storm with its numerous benefits like pay-as-you-go pricing, ease of deployment, and an ecosystem of services. Cloud computing has its share of challenges including security, vendor lock-in, cost in the long run, and configuration complexity. Along with the rise of its use, the threats from malicious actors are going up as well. These attackers either want to take down the services of cloud consumers or to hamper the financial viability of these services by inducing unwanted resource usage or by using cloud resources without the victim's consent. Low-rate denial of service attack (LDoS), and fraudulent resource consumption attack (FRC) are the two most important and widespread attacks which take advantage of the cloud provider's utility pricing and cause heavy financial damage to the victim. In LDoS attacks, the attack rate is kept low to remain undetected, which causes the victim's system to use more resources for a longer time or to lower the quality of service (QoS). FRC, like LDoS, is a low-rate attack, but its main motive is to use resources fraudulently. These attacks are difficult to detect and hence it can cause large financial damage to customers over the long run. The fundamental purpose of detecting and addressing FRC and LDoS is to decrease the financial implications of cloud infrastructure. This paper seeks to evaluate and provide a summary of the tools, techniques, and datasets that can be utilized in the research of FRC and LDoS attacks. To achieve its goal, this paper explains cloud computing, its benefits, and challenges and the security issues in the cloud with a focus on LDoS and FRC. It also summarizes the datasets, tools and attack detection techniques for LDoS and FRC, along with the review of research done in the past on LDoS and FRC detection. It concludes with the challenges in detecting FRC and future work.

New class width rule for continuous frequency tables

The most significant parameter which must be determined before constructing a frequency table or a histogram is the number of classes or class width. Choosing the appropriate number of classes or class remains a long-lasting problem in statistics. Apart from the rules of thumb several more sophisticated rules were reported in the literature. However, none of them has been proven to be better in all situations. In this research, we proposed a new class width rule which can be used when building a frequency table or a histogram. The new class width rule is compared with nine existing classification rules, Sturges, Scott, Freedman and Diaconis, Doane, Terrel and Scott, Cencov, Cochran, Square root, and Rice rules, using the root mean-squared-error (RMSE). The accuracy of the classification rules is assessed using simulations from normal, uniform, exponential, log-normal, and gamma distributions, and also real data. The findings indicated that the proposed rule outperformed the other binning rules for simulations using normal, exponential, log-normal, and gamma distributions. Meanwhile, the square root rule performed better relative to the other classification rules for simulations from the uniform distribution. Comparison using real data showed that the proposed rule performed better than the other classification rules.
