Uncertainty is intrinsic in most of the complex systems, especially when the systems have to interact with the physical environment; therefore, handling uncertainty is critical in the Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we propose a semantic-based approach to build the belief network in IoT systems to handle the uncertainties. Semantics is the...
Ambient backscatter communications have been introduced as low-power communications for green networking. This technology is very promising as it recycles ambient radio frequency waves, however such systems have limitations and suffer from poor performance due to their low-power. In this paper, we present and evaluate the performance of an ambient ...

The Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial IoT (IIoT) have developed rapidly in the past few years, as both the Internet and “things” have evolved significantly. “Things” now range from simple Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices to smart wireless sensors, intelligent wireless sensors and actuators, robotic things, and autonomous vehicles...
Dandanes se mnoga podjetja v industriji srečujejo s potrebo po digitalni transformaciji. Hiter razvoj na področju interneta stvari prinaša številne tehnologije, ki pripomorejo k zajemu podatkov o dogajanju v proizvodnji in prenos teh v zaledne sisteme, kjer jih lahko povežemo s podatki o poslovanju. Problem povezljivosti naprav se rešuje z uporabo ...

User behaviour and choice is a significant parameter in the consumption patterns of energy in the built environment. This paper introduces a behavior-based approach for developing smart energy applications. With the rapid development of wireless sensor networks and the Internet of Things (IoT), human-computer interfaces can be created through the m...
This work presents the use of a three-element radiating structure for circularly polarizedLow-Power Wide Area Network (LP-WAN) communication with space. The proposed structure hasa 72 mm×72 mm×12 mm compact size with Right-Handed Circular Polarization (RHCP) and a120◦wide beamwidth radiation pattern. Printed on low-cost FR4 Epoxy substrate, a feedi...

Rational drug design is an approach based on detailed knowledge of molecular interactions and dynamic of bio-molecules. This approach involves designing new digital and interactive tools including classical desktop interaction devices as well as advanced ones such as haptic arms or virtual reality devices. These approaches however struggle to deal ...
