Solar insecticidal lamps (SILs) play a vital role in green prevention and control of pests. By embedding SILs wireless sensor networks (WSNs), we establish novel agricultural Internet Things (IoT), referred to as the SIL-IoTs. In practice, deployment SIL nodes is determined by geographical characteristics an actual farmland, constraints on locations nodes, radio-wave propagation complex environ...

This paper proposed a parallel automated assembly line system to produce multiple products having multiple autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs). Several assembly lines are configured to produce multiple products in which the technologies of machines are shared among the assembly lines when required. The transportation between the stations in an assembly line (intra assembly line) and among station...

The prevalent communications networks suffer from lack of spectrum and spectrum inefficiency. This has motivated researchers to develop cognitive radio (CR) as a smart and dynamic radio access promised solution. A major challenge to this new technology is how to make fair assignment of available spectrum to unlicensed users, particularly for smart grids communication. This paper introduces an i...

This paper integrates competitive pricing and network design problems for the short life cycle products. The pricing problem determines selling prices of the products for different life cycle phases in a competitive market, as well as acquisition management of returned products. Besides, the selling and acquisition prices are related to the distance between distribution centers and customers. T...

Urban Growth and its Impact on land cover change in Akure South Local Government area was investigated to bridge the knowledge gap created by data deficiency nature, scope, magnitude of urban threat use/land type, most especially agricultural area. This done through analysis Landsat images three epochs from 2000 2010 2020. The processing satellite ArcGIS 10.8, while 2030 projection were Microso...
