The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies presents groundbreaking advancements in nuclear structure analysis. This chapter explores how IoT devices and sensors, combined with ML algorithms, can enhance the precision and efficiency of nuclear research. IoT enables real-time data collection from various sensors distributed across nuclear facilities, providing a comprehensive view of nuclear reactions and structural parameters. ML algorithms then process and analyze this vast amount of data, identifying patterns and anomalies that traditional methods might miss. The chapter discusses the implementation of advanced ML techniques such as neural networks and ensemble methods for predictive modeling and anomaly detection in nuclear systems. It also highlights the challenges and potential solutions related to data integration, security, and computational demands. The convergence of IoT and ML in nuclear structure analysis promises significant improvements in safety, operational efficiency, and research capabilities.

Increasing acquisition of digitization over the information storing and processing in our daily lives has increased the demand of digitization in multiple facets including in investigation processes as well. In fact, for crimes involving computer systems requires the adoption of best practices for the process of evidence extraction from acquired devices from the crime scenes. Over the past years, summarization has become a topic of research. Various techniques of Natural Language Processing (NLP) enabling researchers to generate efficient results for a wide spectrum of documents. In the proposed work Seq2Seq Architecture with RNN is used to perform summarization tasks for documents. The nature of the summary is abstractive and allows the generation of internal meaning by the model itself. With refinement and continual work, this model becomes a strong foundation to perform summarization on longer and legal documents. The results are efficient summary generation and ROUGE scores in the range of 0.6 - 0.7.

Healthcare IT has emerged as one of the basic necessities of life. Information technology could provide the solutions for various health ailments. It is done by processing numerous health parameters of the individual. These parameters could be measured using different electronics devices to keep up the health record and notify the individual and the doctor about any aberrations. Due to growing population and urbanization, various life style health problems are on the rise. Majority of the healthcare devices work in silos. Hence health vitals recorded remain locally stored and enhance the chances of data getting loss. By interconnecting these devices, we could maintain the health records centrally and derive insights. This could be incorporated with the advanced wireless technology. Smartphones could be leveraged for smart functionalities like voice recognition and Google services available. In this project, we are integrating the glucose meter monitors with the wireless communication to take advantage of the IoT technology and collect the blood sugar readings from the different individual, store them and provide the insights based on the health of the individual.

Software has laid a strong influence on all occupations. The key challenge of an IT industry is to engineer a software product with minimum post deployment defects. Software Engineering approaches help engineers to develop quality software within the scheduled time, cost, and resources in a systematic manner. In order to incorporate effective defect management strategies using software engineering discipline needs a complete and widespread knowledge of various aspects of defects. The position of this paper is to provide a pattern analysis of post production defects based on empirical observations made on several main frame projects developed in one of the leading software industries. Inferences thus obtained from this investigation indicate the existence of show stopper severity defects and their associated root cause. This awareness enables the developing team to reduce the residual defects and improve the pre production quality. It further aids the attainment of total customer satisfaction.
