The rapid growth of the internet of things (IoT) has led to an overwhelming volume of data generated by interconnected devices. Effectively extracting valuable insights from this data in real-time is crucial for informed decision-making and optimizing IoT applications. This research explores the integration of traditional complex event processing (CEP) with semantic web technologies to detect complex events in real-time streaming data analysis within the IoT domain. The research develops a semantic complex event processing framework tailored specifically for IoT applications. By leveraging the strengths of traditional CEP in detecting complex event patterns and semantic web technologies in providing standardised data representation and reasoning capabilities, the integrated approach proves to be a powerful solution for event detection. The framework demonstrates enhanced accuracy, real-time analysis capabilities, and the ability to handle heterogeneous data sources. The proposed traditional CEP with semantic web technologies framework is thoroughly evaluated and experimented with to assess its performance and effectiveness in real-time event detection. Performance metrics, including event detection efficiency, scalability, and accuracy of generated insights, are used to compare the framework against traditional CEP. The research findings emphasize the significance of integrating traditional CEP with semantic web technologies in real-time IoT analytics. The proposed framework improves event detection efficiency, scalability, and accuracy, empowering IoT applications with intelligent event processing capabilities. These results provide valuable insights into IoT data analytics and have the potential to revolutionise the way we analyse and leverage IoT data for informed decision-making and optimised system performance. / Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) OSS, Nigeria

Master of Science / Department of Computer Science / Daniel A. Andresen / New to K-State??? No worries!!! This app will be your first friend and help you with everything you may need. Every new incoming student to K-State has to do a set of mandatory activities before they start their classes. Many times they use a pamphlet or word of mouth by students or faculty around, on what to do and whom to visit. But, this information may not be reliable or could have been expired/updated, and students miss on certain crucial things which delays their work. The same follows with various events organized by the college to welcome new students. This app will be a solution for all these problems. It will provide students with all the details they need before they actually become familiar with the school and even after that. Each student gets to see the To-Do's which are a set of mandatory activities, he/she has to do before they enroll for the classes and also, he can know about various events happening around the university. Students can also suggest new events if they are not already updated in the events list. All these activities are monitored and controlled by the Admin.

Today, there are many technologies available for developing cross-platform desktop apps. JavaFX is a software platform based on the Java language. It has a set of features that play a role in its success. On the other hand, Electron is a new framework that allows developers to employ web technologies (JavaScript, HTML, and CSS) to create cross-platform desktop applications. This thesis describes and compares between these two frameworks. The purpose of this report is to provide guidance in choosing the right technique for a particular cross-platform desktop application. Simple cross-platform desktop applications have been developed to compare both approaches as well as find the advantages and disadvantages. The results show that both apps satisfied the functional and nonfunctional requirements. Each framework architecture has its own advantage in building particular apps. Both frameworks have rich APIs as well as rich GUI components for building desktop apps. Electron has good documentation and community help, but it cannot be compared to JavaFX. The Electron app gives faster execution time and less memory usage than JavaFX app. However, the implementation of OOP concepts in Electron using JavaScript has some concerns in terms of encapsulation and inheritance.

The author of this thesis aims to analyze and develop a prototype of a software responsible for showing how the specific web application would be displayed by the concrete device. First, the problem of diversity of devices for accessing the web and of the level of support of modern web technologies is explained to the reader. Then the thesis offers a way how to help developers with testing across web browsers on different hardware. The analytical section describes the methods the author would like to use for accomplishing the goal, and also the set of suitable technologies. The penultimate section shows the manner the author implemented the prototype of the software. The Software is then subjected to tests showing that the prototype meets the requirements.

The goal of this thesis is to create a web service for sharing and easy access to computer vision algorithms. Currently, there is a large number of algorithms and it's beneficial for their authors to simply share them with other people, even from other disciplines. The main part of the thesis consists of creating web service architecture and suggesting a method for request processing to run algorithms. Part of the implemented service is a web interface that allows use of algorithms with its own data, and client library that makes integration into other apps easier.

Mathematical models in physiology are useful to formulate and verify hypotheses, to make predictions, to estimate hidden parameters and in education. This thesis deals with modelling in physiology using the ​Modelica language. New methods for model implementation and simulator production were developed. Modelica is an ​open standard equation-based object-oriented language for modelling complex systems. It is highly convenient in physiology modelling due to its ability to describe extensive models in a lucid hierarchical way. The models are described by algebraic, ordinary differential and discrete equations. Partial differential equations are not supported by the Modelica standard yet. The thesis focuses on two main topics: 1) modelling of systems described by partial differential equations in Modelica 2) production of web-based e-learning simulators driven by models implemented in Modelica. A Modelica language extension called PDEModelica1 for 1-dimensional partial differential equations was designed (based on a previous extension). The OpenModelica modelling tool was extended to support PDEModelica1 using the method of lines. A model of countercurrent heat exchange between the artery and vein in a leg of a bird standing in water was implemented using PDEModelica1 to prove its usability. The...

Cultural heritage makes reference to an extremely diverse set of sources. More specifically, historical artifacts as well as intangible elements of a community’s history, pertain to cultural heritage. However, when looking at the conservation, the enrichment, and the divulgation of these elements, the question becomes more complex. Even more so, when a context of nebulous regulation, unequal distribution of resources and funding of cultural heritage institutions, as well as a bureaucratically complex division of competencies between territories, are present. This is the case in Italy, and more specifically, Southern and Central Italy, where all these issues are present, and further hinder the exploration of undiscovered historical material, as well as the organization and divulgation of discovered material.  Following this discrepancy along the lines of legal and practical restrictions, this thesis aims to explore and evaluate how technology can obviate to said issues. For instance, a methodological exercise was endeavored by scanning some ancient texts, in Latin and in Old Italian, and by running an optical character recognition software on the latter.  More specifically, this thesis applies the paradigm of citizen science for crowdsourcing to explore how well optical character recognition software works in terms of accessibility and efficiency. As such, this methodological exercise does not consist primarily of a technological evaluation but aims at opening up new ways for the public to interact with cultural heritage institutions, for exchanging historical information while respecting the legal and practical considerations that were mentioned. In conclusion, by highlighting this issue, it would be possible to further research and enrich the publicly available data on Italian educational history between the 18th and the 19th Century.
