Irrigation faces the challenge of making its activity more sustainable, both environmentally and economically. In this context, energy self-sufficiency is proposed as a path to follow for the agriculture of the future.

The performance and reliability of machines and devices reduce as they age. Currently, inaccurate degradation characterization leads to over- and under-maintenance, both of which have dire consequences on society. Hence, the urgent need for improved methods to optimize system maintenance, prevent failure and reduce costs.

Your body cools itself through the skin. Dunking your forearms, which represent 10% of the skin's surface area, in ice cold water turbo-charges the cooling process.

Accurate models of real-world scenarios are important for bringing theoretical and experimental research together in meaningful ways. Creating these realistic computer models, however, is a very large undertaking. Significant amounts of data, code, and expertise across a wide range of intricate areas are needed to create useful and comprehensive software.

The security of traditional attribute-based searchable encryption schemes relies on traditional number-theoretic assumptions, and thus they are not able to resist the threat of quantum algorithms. Existing lattice-based searchable encryption schemes have two main problems: one is the low efficiency of the execution of encryption, key generation and search algorithms. The second is the large space required for storing search trapdoors.
