Ambient Field Enhancement Hypothesis (AFEH): An Agnostic Evaluation of Candidate Sources for the Electric Field Required by TACD

This note introduces the Ambient Field Enhancement Hypothesis (AFEH), a companion evaluation that addresses one item the Topography-Anchored Corona Discharge (TACD) model leaves open by design: TACD requires an ambient electric field above a site-dependent threshold to drive corona onset at a grounded point, but treats...

The Reader in the Mirror - Only Transformation: Memory as Stored Constraint, Reading That Cannot Fail, and a Field Read from Inside

The Reader in the Mirror Only Transformation: Memory as Stored Constraint, Reading That Cannot Fail, and a Field Read from Inside Driven by Dean A. Kulik October 2026 Abstract Only transformation exists. Memory is matter that keeps a constraint; logic is how a transformation finds its way through the constraints it mee...

Intrinsic Mesh Swarm Computer-Aided Design (IMS-CAD)

This white paper presents the complete technical specification, mathematical foundations, system architecture, and prior art disclosure for Intrinsic Mesh Swarm Computer-Aided Design (IMS-CAD)—a novel, deterministic, coordinate-passive CAD engine designed to replace continuous Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) and...

Smart Grid Fault Detection and Restoration Using Artificial Intelligence and Edge Computing

The increasing complexity of modern power distribution networks and the integration of renewable energy sources require intelligent and reliable fault management systems. This paper presents , a smart grid framework that integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and edge computing for real-time fault detection, predictio...

CSFENet: a lightweight edge network for UAV-based forest fire detection with generative data

From Probabilistic Cloud to Pycloud — A Control-Layer Language for Quantum Computing and Hardware Validation

Probabilistic cloud state machine (PCSM) theory [1] formalises the classical control layer of quantum computation as a geometric model on the space of stable probability distributions. This paper reports the implementation path from that theory to a usable Python programming interface, together with hardware-validation...

Optoelectronic memristor based on self-assembled distributed nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) film for multimodal logical operation and information processing

Deep Learning-Based Face Recognition Using Convolutional Neural Networks: A Comparative Analysis with Real-Time Application

This paper presents a comparative study of deep learning-based face recognition using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and traditional machine learning approaches. The proposed system is designed to improve facial recognition accuracy while supporting real-time applications. The study evaluates a CNN architecture a...

Demand-weighted edge betweenness centrality for identifying critical pipes in water distribution networks

ABSTRACT Graphical abstract summarising the DWEBC workflow: a WDN is converted to a weighted graph; EPANET hydraulic outputs and demand data are used to compute DWEBC; and high-ranking pipes support resilience screening, maintenance prioritisation, and digital-twin decision-making. Water distribution networks (WDNs) su...

IoT-Based Early Detection of Chronic Diseases Using Machine Learning

Chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer, remain major causes of morbidity and premature mortality worldwide.The increasing availability of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, wearable sensors, smart phones, and remote monitoring platforms provides an opportuni...

Towards Net-Zero clouds: An SLA-aware, carbon-optimized, and hybrid resource management technique

Cloud Data Centres (CDCs) constitute the foundation of digital services, but they are also a major source of carbon emissions and energy demand worldwide. In order to achieve net-zero infrastructures, environmental sustainability, energy efficiency, and service quality, in terms of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), assu...

Privacy preserving cloud data security using blockchain-based public key infrastructure: A systematic review

Cloud computing has become fundamental to modern digital services, with Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) serving as the primary mechanism for authentication, certificate management, and secure communication. However, conventional centralized PKI introduces challenges such as single points of failure, certificate revocat...
