BACKGROUND: The Mediterranean Region holds significant ecological importance, characterised by its unique climate, biodiversity and the crucial role it plays in global ecosystems. Mediterranean streams are naturally highly-stressed environments mainly due to fluctuations in water quantity. River flow generally varies from perennial to ephemeral and temporary rivers constitute significant water resources. Streams that flow through Balearic Islands are subjected to these conditions. The majority of these streams sustain water flow for 4-5 months annually, with exceptions noted for streams associated with springs, which typically maintain water throughout most of the year...

In the current study, the impact of C-ratio, convective heat transfer coefficient, and free stream temperature on the maximal cell temperature and temperature uniformity was computationally and statistically examined. Results revealed that the free stream temperature was the main influential factor for the maximal cell temperature for both natural and forced convection conditions while the C-ratio was the most effective parameter for the temperature uniformity for both natural and forced convections. On the other hand, the contribution of the free stream temperature to the maximum battery temperature increased from 63% to 94% when the conditions were changed from natural convection to forced convection...

Physical exercise affects many facets of life, including mental health, social interaction, physical fitness, and illness prevention, among many others. Therefore, several AI-driven techniques have been developed in the literature to recognize human physical activities. However, these techniques fail to adequately learn the temporal and spatial features of the data patterns. Additionally, these techniques are unable to fully comprehend complex activity patterns over different periods, emphasizing the need for enhanced architectures to further increase accuracy by learning spatiotemporal dependencies in the data individually...

In recent years, the rapid prevalence of high-definition video in Internet of Things (IoT) systems has been directly facilitated by advances in imaging sensor technology. To adapt to limited uplink bandwidth, most media platforms opt to compress videos to bitrate streams for transmission. However, this compression often leads to significant texture loss and artifacts, which severely degrade the Quality of Experience (QoE). We propose a latent feature diffusion model (LFDM) for compressed video quality enhancement, which comprises a compact edge latent feature prior network (ELPN) and a conditional noise prediction network (CNPN)...

Research of novel biosignal modalities with application to remote patient monitoring is a subject of state-of-the-art developments. This study is focused on sonified ECG modality, which can be transmitted as an acoustic wave and received by GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) microphones. Thus, the wireless connection between the patient module and the cloud server can be provided over an audio channel, such as a standard telephone call or audio message. Patients, especially the elderly or visually impaired, can benefit from ECG sonification because the wireless interface is readily available, facilitating the communication and transmission of secure ECG data from the patient monitoring device to the remote server...

The vast amount of information stemming from the deployment of the Internet of Things and open data portals is poised to provide significant benefits for both the private and public sectors, such as the development of value-added services or an increase in the efficiency of public services. This is further enhanced due to the potential of semantic information models such as NGSI-LD, which enable the enrichment and linkage of semantic data, strengthened by the contextual information present by definition. In this scenario, advanced data processing techniques need to be defined and developed for the processing of harmonised datasets and data streams...

The non-degradable nature of petroleum-based plastics and the dependence on petroleum-based products in daily life and production are dilemmas of human development today. We hereby developed a plastic waste upcycling process to address these challenges. A multi-stream fraction strategy was developed to process poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) plastics into soluble and insoluble fractions. The soluble fraction was used as a sole carbon source for microbial fermentation to produce biodiesel precursor lipids with an appreciable bioconversion yield...

Real-time heterogeneous parallel embedded digital signal processor (DSP) systems process multiple data streams in parallel in a stringent time interval. This type of system on chip (SoC) requires the network on chip (NoC) to establish multiple symbiotic parallel data transmission paths with ultra-low transmission latency in real time. Our early NoC research PCCNOC meets this need. The PCCNOC uses packet routing to establish and lock a transmission circuit, so that PCCNOC is perfectly suitable for ultra-low latency and high-bandwidth transmission of long data packets...

Vine-growing for the production of wine is one of the oldest and most important agricultural activities worldwide, but the winemaking process leads to vast amounts of waste. Viticulture and vinification by-products have many bioactive molecules, including polyphenols, prebiotic fibers, organic acids, and minerals. While research on the specific human health effects of grapevine residues (pomace, seeds, barks, stalks, canes, and leaves) is still ongoing, the available data suggest the potential to positively modulate the normal and dysbiotic gut microbiota (GM) using polyphenol-rich extracts obtained from winery by-products...

Phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) describes the interaction of two separate frequencies in which the lower frequency phase acts as a carrier frequency of the higher frequency amplitude. It is a means of carrying integrated streams of information between micro- and macroscale systems in the brain, allowing for coordinated activity of separate brain regions. A beta-gamma PAC increase over the sensorimotor cortex has been observed consistently in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Its cause is attributed to neural entrainment in the basal ganglia, caused by pathological degeneration characteristic of PD...

The autonomous identification of animal births has a significant added value, since it enables for a prompt timely human intervention in the process, protecting the young and the mothers' health, without requiring continuous human surveillance. Wearable inertial sensors have been employed for a variety of animal monitoring applications, thanks to their low cost and the fact that they allow less invasive monitoring process. Alarms triggered by the occurrence of events must be generated close to the events to avoid delays caused by communication latency, which is why this type of mechanism is typically implemented at the network's edge and integrated with existing auxiliary mechanisms on the Internet...
