A Sandwich Control System with Dual Stochastic Impulses

Dear editor,Along with the progress of science and technology and the development of social civilization,control system brings an increasingly significant function in daily life.The application field of control system is very wide,for instance,in mobile technology[1],artificial earth satellite[2],pest control[3],etc.Ribeiro[4]first put forward the concept of random pulse in 1967.At present,impulsive control is used in networked control[5],secure communication[6],etc.In the 21st century,the impulsive control has been used in synchronization of coupled system,intelligent fault identification,image encryption.     

A review of the development of full cell lithium-ion batteries: The impact of nanostructured anode materials

Lithium-ion batteries have emerged as the best portable energy storage device for the consumer electronics market. Recent progress in the development of lithiumion batteries has been achieved by the use of selected anode materials, which have driven improvements in performance in terms of capacity, cyclic stability, and rate capability. In this regard, research focusing on the design and electrochemical performance of full cell lithium-ion batteries, utilizing newly developed anode materials, has been widely reported, and great strides in development have been made. Nanostructured anode materials have contributed largely to the development of full cell lithium-ion batteries. With this in mind, we summarize the impact of nanostructured anode materials in the performance of coin cell full lithium-ion batteries. This review also discusses the challenges and prospects of research into full cell lithium-ion batteries.

Smart integrated IoT healthcare system for cancer care

The emergence of the internet of things (IoT) has drastically influenced and shaped the world of technology in the contexts of connectivity, interconnectivity, and interoperability with smart connected sensors, objects, devices, data, and applications. In fact, IoT has brought notable impacts on the global economy and human experience that span from industry to industry in a variety of application domains, including healthcare. With IoT, it is expected to facilitate a seamless interaction and communication of objects (devices) with humans in the environment. Therefore, it is imperative to embrace the potentials and benefits of IoT technology in healthcare delivery to ensure saving lives and to improve the quality of life using smart connected devices. In this paper, we focus on the IoT based healthcare system for cancer care services and business analytics/cloud services and also propose the adoption and implementation of IoT/WSN technology to augment the existing treatment options to deliver healthcare solution. Here, the business analytics/cloud services constitute the enablers for actionable insights, decision making, data transmission and reporting for enhancing cancer treatments. Furthermore, we propose a variety of frameworks and architectures to illustrate and support the functional IoT-based solution that is being considered or utilized in our proposed smart healthcare solution for cancer care services. Finally, it will be important to understand and discuss some security issues and operational challenges that have characterized the IoT-enabled healthcare system.
