Blockchain meets lightweight cryptography

February 10, 2023 by Safiullah Khan

The Internet of Things (IoT) typically comprises sensors that have inadequate computational resources. On the contrary, blockchain technology is thought to be expensive in terms of resource consumption due to the consensus procedures involved. As a result, the application of blockchain to the IoT environment is a challenging task. The most appropriate solution lies in replacing … [Read more...] about Blockchain meets lightweight cryptography

A paradigm shift in higher education in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution

March 1, 2021 by Jaco du Preez and Saurabh Sinha

Image of a human hand and robot hand touching.

The future of work is upon us and has rapidly and profoundly influenced many professions and industries. Alongside this, we argue that it is essential for the landscape of postschool education and training (PSET), both in South Africa and globally, to adapt to the changing nature of work, and, ideally, lead this evolution. For more about this article see link … [Read more...] about A paradigm shift in higher education in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution

Characteristics of social robots: A framework for development

Social robots hold great promise for assisting both older adults with dementia and those in good health. Yet, little is known about how people want to interact with these robots. This article introduces a framework for the key features social robots should have, based on insights from a four-month study of how seniors engage with robots through conversation and interaction. We have broken these features down into principles of robot behavior, verbal communication, and nonverbal communication, while also considering factors that affect a person’s likelihood to adopt such technology. Our findings offer a starting point for refining social robots and & developing features that truly resonate with users.
