We propose a new vehicle monitoring system based on Exonum blockchain platform. This system may help autonomous vehicles to make decisions. This system can also help in investigating crimes and traffic offense. The article describes the main trends in the field of intellectualization of transport systems and mobility. The blockchain technology and its capabilities in enhancing cybersecurity are described through the creation of a safe and reliable system for sending the parameters of the current state of each vehicle through its neighbours. The proposed system will serve as an important step towards the development of a motion control system for connected and autonomous vehicles.

The Individual

Every individual undergoes a series of educational programs and acquires skills and pedagogical certifications throughout his/her life from various educational and skill development organisations across the world, including the companies they work for. It is imperative that there is a comprehensive record of these certifications that can be authentically verified by those wanting to employ the individual for these respective skills accredited through certifications. In this chapter, the authors explore the utility of blockchain technology-led digitization, automation of trust, and disintermediation in education sector. They examine some of the prominent use cases and challenges faced by blockchain technology. They also look at the current state of blockchain technology-enabled applications in related domains and its implications for the education sector in India along with a real-life illustration with implementation using AuxCert on Auxledger, a permissioned blockchain platform from Auxesis group.

Operation Status

For autonomous driving, a control system that supports precise road maps is required to monitor the operation status of autonomous vehicles in the research stage. Such a system is also required for research related to automobile engineering, sensors, and artificial intelligence. The design of Google Maps and other map services is limited to the provision of map support at 20 levels of high-resolution precision. An ideal map should include information on roads, autonomous vehicles, and Internet of Things (IOT) facilities that support autonomous driving. The aim of this study was to design a map suitable for the control of autonomous vehicles in Gyeonggi Province in Korea. This work was part of the project “Building a Testbed for Pilot Operations of Autonomous Vehicles”. The map design scheme was redesigned for an autonomous vehicle control system based on the “Easy Map” developed by the National Geography Center, which provides free design schema. In addition, a vector-based precision map, including roads, sidewalks, and road markings, was produced to provide content suitable for 20 levels. A hybrid map that combines the vector layer of the road and an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) orthographic map was designed to facilitate vehicle identification. A control system that can display vehicle and sensor information based on the designed map was developed, and an environment to monitor the operation of autonomous vehicles was established. Finally, the high-precision map was verified through an accuracy test and driving data from autonomous vehicles.

This paper presents a systematic review of the perception systems and simulators for autonomous vehicles (AV). This work has been divided into three parts. In the first part, perception systems are categorized as environment perception systems and positioning estimation systems. The paper presents the physical fundamentals, principle functioning, and electromagnetic spectrum used to operate the most common sensors used in perception systems (ultrasonic, RADAR, LiDAR, cameras, IMU, GNSS, RTK, etc.). Furthermore, their strengths and weaknesses are shown, and the quantification of their features using spider charts will allow proper selection of different sensors depending on 11 features. In the second part, the main elements to be taken into account in the simulation of a perception system of an AV are presented. For this purpose, the paper describes simulators for model-based development, the main game engines that can be used for simulation, simulators from the robotics field, and lastly simulators used specifically for AV. Finally, the current state of regulations that are being applied in different countries around the world on issues concerning the implementation of autonomous vehicles is presented.

Static Discharge

The use of ECMO for cardiovascular support continues to increase in the United States and around the world. It is not a benign endeavor as serious complications may occur. We present our experience of two second generation CentriMag® (Abbott formerly Thoratec Inc.) console failures that occurred while transporting the patients to other areas of the hospital. In each incident, the patients were immediately placed on back-up units and the transport continued. No patient complications could be attributed to the failures. An investigation by Abbott engineers traced the failure to a static build-up and discharge caused by a non-manufacturer-approved metal rod that was utilized to mount the external monitor. The static discharge caused a disruption of electrical continuity between the control system and the motor, stopping the motor as well as the monitoring system. Removal of the mounting rod prevented replication of the situation in the lab. We have removed the rod from our clinical units and have not experienced any other pump failures.

The Impact

Nowadays in the world economy, there is a tendency to invest in alternative, digital assets. Currently, the problem of integration of cryptocurrencies into the international financial system and the spread of the use of cryptocurrencies as a means of payment for goods and services is relevant. The following scientists have considered the development of the cryptocurrency economy: Beck K., M. Carney, M. Chea, E. Fry, J. Chung A., Roca E., Cooper M. and others. However, changes in the global economy caused by the coronavirus pandemic have significantly affected the cryptocurrency market and require more careful study and analysis. The article is devoted to the study of the current state of the cryptocurrency market and the changes that have taken place under the influence of the coronavirus.

Abstract The freight transport sector is a low profit and high competition business and therefore has less ability to invest in research and development in the field of autonomous vehicles (AV) than the private car industry. There are already different levels of automation technologies in the transport industry, but most of these are serving niche demands and answers have yet to be found about whether it would be worthwhile to industrialise these technologies. New innovations from different fields are constantly changing the freight traffic industry but these are less disruptive than on other markets. The aim of this article is to show the current state of development of freight traffic with regards to AVs and analyse which future directions of development might be viable. The level of automation is very different in the case of different transport modes and most probably the technology will favour road transport over other, less environmentally harmful traffic modes.
