Volume 1, Issue 2 - 5 Articles
This issue presents five diverse papers exploring the latest technological advancements. The first paper introduces a novel sample manipulation technique to improve power quality monitoring in grids. The second proposes a distributed approach using Voronoi Diagrams and Genetic Algorithms to enhance coverage in IoT networks. The third examines the feasibility of utilizing TV White Spaces and High Altitude Platforms to bridge the rural broadband gap. The fourth outlines the development of a Unity-based game, Prakriti, to educate players on water conservation. The fifth investigates the suitability of overburden materials for foundation construction through geophysical surveys. Collectively, these studies showcase the breadth of modern technological research and its potential impact across power systems, telecommunications, gaming, and infrastructure development.
