Energy-saving computation offloading scheme based on Sarsa algorithm in industrial internet of things by Jun SUN, Shangweikang ZHAO

“…In order to reduce the total energy consumption of industrial internet of things systems with deadline requirements, a computing offloading scheme based on Sarsa algorithm was proposed.Based on the characteristics of Sarsa algorithm, the energy consumption optimization problem was coupled.The Sarsa algorithm iterated the external state value function, selected the appropriate edge computing server to offload the computing task, and then the particle swarm optimization algorithm solved the resource allocation problem.Finally, the environmental information was updated for the next round of algorithm iteration until the algorithm met the end conditions.The simulation results show that this scheme has faster convergence speed and effectively reduces the system energy consumption.…”

Assessing Gross Motor and Gait Function Using Hip–Knee Cyclograms in Ambulatory Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy by Jehyun Yoo, Juntaek Hong, Jeuhee Lee, Yebin Cho, Taekyung Lee, Dong-wook Rha

“…Weakness, spasticity, and muscle shortening are common in children with cerebral palsy (CP), leading to deficits in gross motor, gait, and selective motor functions. While traditional assessments, such as the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66), instrumented gait analysis, and the Selective Control Assessment of the Lower Extremity (SCALE), are widely used, they are often limited by the resource-intensive nature of hospital-based evaluations. …”
