This paper reviews the inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation approaches in the OFDMA based multicellular networks with more emphasis on the frequency reused based ICI coordination schemes in the downlink systems. The geometry of the network severely affects the Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR); therefore, the wireless cellular systems are strongly dependent on the spatial BSs configuration and topology of a network. ICI mitigation techniques for both regular and irregular geometry networks are analyzed and a qualitative comparison along with the future research directions are presented.

In recent years, Keyword Spotting (KWS) has become a crucial human–machine interface for mobile devices, allowing users to interact more naturally with their gadgets by leveraging their own voice. Due to privacy, latency and energy requirements, the execution of KWS tasks on the embedded device itself instead of in the cloud, has attracted significant attention from the research community. However, the constraints associated with embedded systems, including limited energy, memory, and computational capacity, represent a real challenge for the embedded deployment of such interfaces. In this article, we explore and guide the reader through the design of KWS systems. To support this overview, we extensively survey the different approaches taken by the recent state-of-the-art (SotA) at the algorithmic, architectural, and circuit level to enable KWS tasks in edge, devices. A quantitative and qualitative comparison between relevant SotA hardware platforms is carried out, highlighting the current design trends, as well as pointing out future research directions in the development of this technology.

Management from Islamic Perspectives (MIP) is an emerging field that has begun to attract scholarly attention. However, the research undertaken so far has been rather fragmented and lack a clear agenda. This paper presents a literature review of the field and the areas of current focus. Although the field has a huge growth potential, I argue that it faces several challenges and problems as it develops further. I outline these potential pitfalls, suggest how to develop MIP as a formal discipline, and explain how to integrate it within real-life business practices. The article closes with a call for research to be conducted in a more organized fashion through an international consortium of researchers as well as recommendations for future research directions.
