The Untapped Power of Soda Taxes: Incentivizing Consumers, Generating Revenue, and Altering Corporate Behavior

Globally, soda taxes are gaining momentum as powerful interventions to discourage sugar consumption and thereby reduce the growing burden of obesity and non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Evidence from early adopters including Mexico and Berkeley, California, confirms that soda taxes can disincentivize consumption through price increases and raise revenue to support government programs. The Unit...

Analysis of Wireless Power Transmission

The advent of various wireless technologies have revolutionized the communication infrastructure and consequently changed the entire world into a global village. Use of wireless technology has also been made for transmission of electric power wirelessly. It increases the portability of power systems and integrates the communication technologies and electric power to the same platform. This pape...

Wireless Sensor Network a New Paradigm for Sensing and Communicating the Efficient Approach

In the Aspect of technological evolution, We have reached to the some extend of boundary level where we just going for the quality , robustness, efficiency and many more factors which analyses to show the today’s technology; Symmetrically there are many parameters which major the above mentioned factors likely various institutes like CMMI, ISO and many more. Hence, Keeping all those factors int...

Outlier Detection in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Distributed Principal Component Analysis

Detecting anomalies is an important challenge for intrusion detection and fault diagnosis in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To address the problem of outlier detection in wireless sensor networks, in this paper we present a PCA-based centralized approach and a DPCA-based distributed energy-efficient approach for detecting outliers in sensed data in a WSN. The outliers in sensed data can be ca...
