Information technologies for analysis and processing heterogeneous data often face the necessity to unify representation of such data. To solve this problem, it seems reasonable to search for a universal structure that would allow for reducing different formats of data and knowledge to a single mathematical model with unitized manipulation methods. The concept of relation looks very prospective in this sense. So, with a view to developing a general theory of relations, the authors propose n-tuple algebra (NTA) developed as a theoretical generalization of structures and methods applicable in intelligence systems. NTA allows for formalizing a wide set of logical problems (deductive, abductive and modified reasoning, modeling uncertainties, and so on).

The purpose of this work is to identify a tool that allows a military decision maker at the tactical level to manage the military resources available in the event of a pandemic. The research focused on finding and adapting an epidemiological mathematical model to process data collected in a military jurisdiction and with it the development of prospective scenarios in a military jurisdiction in the event of a pandemic. The results indicate that in the face of a pandemic, military decision makers must have a model of prospective scenarios and the adaptation of the intelligence process, especially the means of searching for information and the recording and analysis instruments to diligently manage the available resources. It is concluded that, given the appearance of a pandemic in a place with geographical conditions that hinder rapid accessibility and administrative support, military decision makers require a procedure that allows rapid adaptation to the new tactical scenario.

The notion of smart city embrace from urbanization with the unceasing boom of population in a city. The rising population in cities require high demand on living standard, facilities and social sustainability, in fact, it is challenging for the existing scarce resources and services to complement the citizen’s needs and demand. Thus, the model of smart city emerges as a solution to strategically integrate people, process, data and computing technology. Technologies such as Internet of Things, Big Data and Cloud Computing can be integrated with physical infrastructure to support efficient resourceful services and assure sustainable living standard for the citizens. To transform a city into a smart city it involves a complex and multidimensional process which rapidly changes according to the citizen’s needs. Conversely, there is a lack of universal standard route in being smart and various cities has implemented many methods in understanding a smart city. This paper aims to produce a systematic research to comprehend the fundamental concept of smart city’s characteristics and dimensions. This research presents various literature definitions of smart cities, followed by commonly discussed smart city characteristics and dimensions.

Phase II of composting of mushroom substrate was studied in bulk fermentation tunnels. Compost data are given on heat production, settling and mass reduction, porosity and thermal conductivity. Mass and moisture determinations at the end of the process indicated slightly positive gradients in the direction of the air stream. The highest rate of degradation occurred during the first 2 days. A mathematical model of mass and heat transfers was devised. Differential equations were solved with time-dependent analysis using a Continuous Simulation and Modelling Program (CSMP). In the calculations, the substrate was divided into theoretical layers of equal thickness but of different density and porosity. The model predicts the time-course of the process taking into account the moisture content and the filling height of the compost, and the amounts of supplied fresh air and recirculated air. The calculated data include the oxygen demand, the water and dry matter losses, the temperatures in the various layers, and the loss of conductive heat through the walls of the containers in the tunnel. Calculated data corresponded with actual process data. Temp. were correct within 3 degrees C and weight losses within 5%.

The analysis of government policy documents conducted by the authors allowed to establish that the Russian Federation Transport System Development Strategy until 2020, developed back in 2004, does not have a comprehensive and detailed toolkit for the implementation of all the goals and objectives presented in it, in particular, there are no current models of management decision-making at the Russian transport system development in a “smart city. The authors found that the effective management of traffic in a “smart city” should provide load transport network on the brink of its capacity and to maintain a continuous uniform motion, including the relatively low speeds, and increase the level of social development. This formulation of the problem proposed by the authors is fundamentally changing the construction of transport management systems, control algorithms and thus the model on which they are based, are not needed “smart city.” Thus, the authors of the article developed a mathematical model for evaluating the efficiency of transport interchanges in the general system of transport development in the Russian Federation, taking into account the requirements of the “smart city” concept and the growing social effect.

A smart city improves operational efficiency and comfort of living by harnessing techniques such as the Internet of Things (IoT) to collect and process data for decision-making. To better support smart cities, data collected by IoT should be stored and processed appropriately. However, IoT devices are often task-specialized and resource-constrained, and thus, they heavily rely on online resources in terms of computing and storage to accomplish various tasks. Moreover, these cloud-based solutions often centralize the resources and are far away from the end IoTs and cannot respond to users in time due to network congestion when massive numbers of tasks offload through the core network. Therefore, by decentralizing resources spatially close to IoT devices, mobile edge computing (MEC) can reduce latency and improve service quality for a smart city, where service requests can be fulfilled in proximity. As the service demands exhibit spatial-temporal features, deploying MEC servers at optimal locations and allocating MEC resources play an essential role in efficiently meeting service requirements in a smart city. In this regard, it is essential to learn the distribution of resource demands in time and space. In this work, we first propose a spatio-temporal Bayesian hierarchical learning approach to learn and predict the distribution of MEC resource demand over space and time to facilitate MEC deployment and resource management. Second, the proposed model is trained and tested on real-world data, and the results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve very high accuracy. Third, we demonstrate an application of the proposed method by simulating task offloading. Finally, the simulated results show that resources allocated based upon our models’ predictions are exploited more efficiently than the resources are equally divided into all servers in unobserved areas.
