As with technology, the concept of Smart City has evolved over time in line digitisation processes and changing needs cities their inhabitants [...]

Intelligent or smart completion wells vary from conventional wells. They have downhole flow control devices like Inflow Control Devices (ICD) and Interval Valves (ICV) to enhance reservoir management control, optimizing hydrocarbon output recovery. However, explain their adoption increase economic return, a high level of justification is necessary.
 Smart horizontal also necessitate the nu...

this paper argues for a broader emphasis on sustainable security and smart power, for examining both opportunities as well as threats to security. sustainable security is a new concept in the security studies. deep attention to all possible threats against human life is necessary for continuation of security in a sustainable and dynamic base. this aim can be achieved in a highest level by mergi...

Distributed ledger technologies are rising in popularity, mainly for the host of financial applications they potentially enable, through smart contracts. Several implementations of distributed ledgers have been proposed, and different languages for the development of smart contracts have been suggested. A great deal of attention is given to the practice of development, i.e. programming, of smar...

existed electricity grids deliver produced power to the consumer passing through transmission and distribution grids. according to high losses of these grids in transmission level and inexistence of bilateral interaction for simultaneous information exchange, a concept of smart grids were made by capabilities such as consciously participation of consumers in the smart electricity grids, an amou...

Smart home services are a new generation of consumer services. Supported by the Internet Things (IoT) technology, they deliver security, comfort, entertainment, assisted living, and efficient management to improve quality life consumers. As availability smart expands, there is still lack understanding what motivates their continuing use how penetration devices in environment affects individual ...

Smart spaces augment people’s lives with ubiquitous computing technology that provides increased communications, awareness, and functionality. However, smart spaces pose many technical challenges in device interaction/integration, user/environment perception, system interoperability and scalability, as well as security/privacy/trust. In this paper, we first examine some key issues in smart spac...
