Design and Implementation of an IoT-Based Intelligent Parking System

Lakshmi Prasad Panda — 2023-08-04

This research outlines the development and execution of an intelligent parking system using IoT technology. The system employs sensors and data analysis methods to deliver up-to-the-minute information on available parking spaces. The plan was simulated using Python code, which generated random sensor data for cars and bikes and analysed that data to determine the parking availability for each vehicle type. The final parking counts were then used to create a bar chart that visualised the parking availability for the entire day. The simulation results demonstrated the potential benefits of an intelligent parking system, including reduced search time for parking spots and traffic congestion. The plan effectively provided real-time information on parking availability, with an accuracy rate of over 90%. The system can examine and comprehend parking trends and utilisation using sophisticated data analysis methods, including machine learning and artificial intelligence. However, the simulation also identified potential weaknesses, including technical issues, privacy and security concerns, and stakeholder engagement. Technical problems may arise in implementing a real-world parking sensor system, such as maintenance and repair of the sensors. Privacy and security concerns may also occur as the system collects data on the location and movements of vehicles. In addition, stakeholder engagement may be necessary to ensure the system is designed and implemented to meet all users’ needs.

Technology-Enabled Sustainable Waste Management

Anjum Nazir Qureshi — 2023-08-04

The collection of trash and litter has been increasing every day due to the increase in the global population. This has led to situations like the accumulation of plastic and other harmful materials in water bodies and on land. Environmentalists around the world are working to manage the waste generated due by daily activities and industrialization. Smart waste management has therefore become a widely discussed topic to obtain solutions in this regard. Smart waste management uses recent technologies to increase the efficiency of activities used for managing waste. This system uses a combination of hardware and software to know the amount of waste collected in a given area. The sensor-enabled bins will transmit the data of collected waste to replace the filled bins and reduce the chances of extra litter being dropped on the streets.

This chapter will discuss utilizing the Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in improving the efficiency of waste management. IoT will be helpful in route optimization, and smart recycling, and improve the waste management process through data analysis. AI is considered to be an efficient way of recycling the waste as it does not need to rest and provides effortless solutions to sort and recover waste. Blockchain is a decentralized system and cannot be altered. Blockchain when combined with IoT can use smart contracts to improve the monitoring of waste and offer higher transparency. AI,IoT, and Blockchaincan digitize the recycling process and contribute towards finding sustainable efficient solutions to deal with the climate crisis that has become a huge global problem.

A Study on Dairy Supply Chain Management in Chhattisgarh -A Case Study

Priyanka Singh — 2023-08-04

In order to manage and coordinate the movement of commodities, information, and money from the manufacture of dairy products through the delivery to customers at the end, the process is known as dairy supply chain management. The central Indian state of Chhattisgarh is renowned for its enormous dairy and agricultural resources. Small and medium-sized dairy producers are prevalent throughout the state and are crucial to the dairy industry. The absence of cutting-edge technology and infrastructure is one of the key challenges confronting Chhattisgarh's dairy supply chain. This frequently leads to low output, poor milk quality, and significant loss. Inefficiencies and high transaction costs can also result from the fragmented nature of the supply chain, which involves numerous middlemen. Many actions have been done by the public and business sectors to address these issues. To increase the effectiveness and quality of the supply chain, private firms are also making investments in cold chain infrastructure, quality testing labs, and other relevant services. To increase the effectiveness and quality of the supply chain, private firms are also making investments in cold chain infrastructure, quality testing labs, and other relevant services. Also, organizations that work with farmers, including Chhattisgarh Rajya Sahakari Dugdh Sangh (CHRSDS), are crucial in organizing dairy farmers and optimizing the supply chain. The cooperative offers dairy farmers marketing opportunities, financial help, and technical aid. Dairy producers now produce more milk, have more control over its quality, and make more money. In this paper we discussed, the various challenges in dairy supply chain managements in Chhattisgarh.
