TSYS School computer science professor Linqiang Ge and a team of faculty from Sam Houston State University have joined to publish a review of the latest research on the Internet of Things (IoT), which is the advancement that interconnects various smart devices (such as smart mobiles, intelligent refrigerators, smartwatches, smart fire alarms, smart door locks, and many more) allowing them to communicate with each other and exchange data seamlessly. As their review indicates, we now use IoT technology to assist in many of life’s daily activities, such as smart transportation. IoT provides drivers in a smart city with many benefits, including traffic management, improved logistics, efficient parking systems, and enhanced safety measures. When encompassing machine learning and big data, smart transportation involves the optimization of routes, parking, street lighting, accident prevention, detection of abnormal traffic conditions, and maintenance of roads. The study by Ge and his colleagues, which appears in the current issue of Sensors, represents a self-contained review of studies from IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, Science Direct, and Springer on the different technologies used in smart transportation today and their respective challenges. The review focuses on a number of areas, including the communication mechanisms, architectures, and frameworks that enable smart transportation applications and systems. It also explores the communication protocols enabling smart transportation, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular networks, and how they contribute to seamless data exchange. Lastly, another specific area of focus concerns the different architectures and frameworks used in smart transportation, including cloud computing, edge computing, and fog computing.
The long-awaited journal review being conducted by the Australian Business Deans Council (ABDC) has been released and there are a number of news items that relate to faculty in the Turner College. One of these is the ABDC's decision to now include Compensation and Benefits Review in its journal rankings. This is big news for the Turner College as its editor, Phil Bryant , is a professor of management in the Turner College. The ABDC is proposing that the journal enter its system for the first time as a C-rated journal. Acting Turner College Dean Tesa Leonce sits on the journal's editorial board, while Turner College management professor Mark James has guest-edited an issue of the journal. Published by SAGE, Compensation & Benefits Review is the leading journal for senior executives and professionals who design, implement, evaluate and communicate compensation and benefits policies and programs. The journal supports compensation and benefits specialists and academic ex...
