Abstract

Cloud computing is a prominent and evolving distributed computing paradigm that provides users with on-demand services through a network of diverse autonomous systems with flexible computational structures. The significance of task scheduling becomes evident, serving as a vital component to elevating cloud computing's overall performance. Streamlining cost-effective execution and optimizing resource utilization is a key objective, given the NP-hard nature of the task scheduling problem. Although numerous meta-heuristic techniques have been explored to address task allocation challenges, ample opportunities remain for the development of optimal strategies. This paper presents a state-of-the-art task assignment model that revolves around OptiAssign particle swarm optimization (PSO), with a strong emphasis on the crucial role played by efficient dependency handling and multi-level task scheduling. The primary aim of this model is to optimize the utilization of virtual machine capacities, simultaneously minimizing execution time, makespan, wait time, and overall execution costs within a variety of distributed computing systems. This novel algorithm showcases outstanding performance when compared to traditional approaches in task scheduling, highlighting the importance of skillful dependency management and the implementation of multi-level task scheduling strategies. The results of this study further affirm the effectiveness of the model in addressing the inherent complexities of scenarios involving intricate task dependencies and diverse scheduling priorities.

Abstract

This system is proposed to address the challenges healthcare professionals face in monitoring patients who require intravenous infusion. This treatment method is commonly used for patients with dehydration, malnutrition, or those unable to take oral medications. The system enables remote monitoring of a patient's health and reduces the workload of healthcare professionals. The process begins with a doctor prescribing the necessary dose of drip bottles, which are then configured by the nurse accordingly. Once set for automatic operation, the system diligently calculates and monitors the fluid level and infusion rate using a load cell sensor. Additionally, the patient's vital signs, including heart rate, body temperature, and oxygen levels, are continuously monitored and stored in a database using cloud computing technology, enabling robust data analysis. The system provides real-time feedback on infusion parameters through an LCD screen. In the event of a patient's health deteriorating below a threshold level, a message is sent to the doctor, accompanied by a buzzer sounding and a red LED flashing at the patient's bedside. A supervisor continuously monitors the patient's health report, promptly informing the physician of any rapid changes and facilitating immediate treatment. This comprehensive system enhances patient care, streamlines medical monitoring processes, and enables swift responses to emergent health situations.

Abstract

The secure exchange of medical information significantly benefits people's life equality, improving healthcare treatment. The interoperability of the entire healthcare ecosystem is constantly challenging with all the risk security of alternatives when it comes to balancing the alternative ecosystem. However, with the constant development of new blockchain technology, the evolution of the healthcare system is difficult to establish. Disruptions with the biomedical and clinical studies fields have brought about dramatic modifications in healthcare statistics control systems. This leads to a step forward in scientific statistics protection. This ability of blockchain to maintain an incorruptible, decentralized, and obvious log of all affected person statistics makes it a generation rife for protection applications. In this paper, blockchain technology is used for its major gain of being transparent. Since it's far private, concealing the identification of any people with complicated and secure codes, which could shield the sensitivity of scientific statistics, is achieved. The decentralized nature of this generation additionally lets in patients, medical doctors, and healthcare vendors to share equal records fast and safely. Extracting the applicable records from the statistics is feasible with the aid of making use of the KNN machine learning algorithm.
