Biomedical Electronics and Wearable Systems
Wearable electronic systems allow for the monitoring of vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, and activity levels. These real-time data help individuals understand their personal health trends and make informed decisions to improve their well-being. The eleven papers included in this Special Issue show how wearables facilitate a proactive, preventive, and personalized approach to health management, empowering individuals and supporting healthcare providers in delivering better care while also addressing some challenges to the wider adoption of these systems. Reliable and durable electrodes and sensors are essential for accurate data in e-health applications, improving diagnostics, and the early detection of health issues. Wearable inertial measurement devices offer personalized insights based on individual data, enabling the calculation of sports intensity thresholds, tracking recovery in patients with low back pain, and aiding in the early detection of foot-related diseases. Wearables provide continuous data that can detect health problems early and help manage chronic conditions. They allow patients to monitor health metrics regularly, such as remote glucose monitoring, enable healthcare providers to adjust treatment plans based on objective data, and support patient risk stratification in the preoperative period. However, comfort, non-invasiveness, power consumption, data integrity, and safety are still open issues in the development of biomedical electronics and wearables, propelling research on dedicated buses and robust infrastructures that enable seamless data integration from different sensors.

Social Media Archeology and Poetics
First person accounts by pioneers in the field, classic essays, and new scholarship document the collaborative and creative practices of early social media. Focusing on early social media in the arts and humanities and on the core role of creative computer scientists, artists, and scholars in shaping the pre-Web social media landscape, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents social media lineage, beginning in the 1970s with collaborative ARPANET research, Community Memory, PLATO, Minitel, and ARTEX and continuing into the 1980s and beyond with the Electronic Caf矇, Art Com Electronic Network, Arts Wire, The THING, and many more. With first person accounts from pioneers in the field, as well as papers by artists, scholars, and curators, Social Media Archeology and Poetics documents how these platforms were vital components of early social networking and important in the development of new media and electronic literature. It describes platforms that allowed artists and musicians to share and publish their work, community networking diversity, and the creation of footholds for the arts and humanities online. And it invites comparisons of social media in the past and present, asking: What can we learn from early social media that will inspire us to envision a greater cultural presence on contemporary social media?

The XXXII Conference on Electrical and Electronic Engineering
The XXXII JIEE-2024 conference provided a space for collaboration between the academic community and the energy, telecommunications, and automation sectors, in which the EPN showcased the technological advances and challenges that the scientific community has addressed in a number of research and final degree projects related to telecommunications, electronics, information technologies, and electrical engineering. Among the main topics addressed during the conference were the following: i) control and systems; ii) smart grids; iii) the deployment of novel technologies for planning and operating power systems; iv) renewable energy; v) automation; vi) robotics; vii) power electronics; viii) control; ix) wireless technologies; x) mobile communications; xi) cybersecurity; and xii) machine learning. In addition, this was a space to share with the academic and industry community the novel studies that have been carried out worldwide on topics related to power systems, renewable energy, telecommunications, electronics, control, and information technology. With this aim, keynotes from international experts were organized as part of special tutorials held during the conference. This Reprint contains the scientific papers that were presented at XXXII JIEE-2024, which summarize the results of important research projects carried out at Escuela Polit矇cnica Nacional, Quito, Ecuador, as well as at other universities and within industry related to power systems, renewable energy, telecommunications, electronics, control, and information technology.
Digital Dominance
"In the modern world," author James Jay Carafano asserts, "winning online could be the key to being free, safe, and prosperous--or being consumed." In his previous book, Wiki at War: Conflict in a Socially Networked World, Carafano explored how social networks operate; how digital networks could impact contemporary national security affairs; and how to dominate the "high ground" in cyberspace. In the ensuing decade, real-world actors have put this knowledge into practice. Written as a sequel, Digital Dominance: Winning in a Socially Networked World is divided into four parts. The first explores the time from Wiki at War to now, updating the ideas and domination strategies through a modern lens as the digital world impacts the physical. The second and third parts break down both sides of the national security challenge: how to not only build an effective, powerful, and impactful network of your own, but how to take apart the networks of adversaries. Carafano concludes with an eagle's-eye view of the environment where this digital war is playing out, what public and private sector actors are participating, and the role of emerging new technologies. Digital Dominance looks at both sides of the national security challenge: how to build networks and make them powerful and impactful, while also weakening the enemy's. Given the growing impact of the "metaverse," the questions raised in this book are only likely to become more crucial over time. Digital Dominance promises to guide and shape our understanding of how strategic success or failure online could increasingly predict outcomes in real time.
DMD Digital Lithography Optimization Technology
In the sophisticated world of microelectronics manufacturing, lithography is the key to miniaturization and high-performance integrated circuits. With the continuous progress of technology, the requirements of lithography resolution and production efficiency are increasing day by day, and the traditional lithography technology is facing unprecedented challenges. Digital Micromirror device (DMD) lithography technology, with its high contrast and fast refresh rate, has become an important tool in the field of micro and nano manufacturing. However, how to improve the lithographic accuracy and pattern quality while maintaining high efficiency is still an urgent problem to be solved in the industry. This book, ""Optimization of DMD Digital Lithography"" by Dr. Shengzhou Huang and his team, brings together their latest research results in the field of DMD lithography optimization. (1) A simulated annealing enhanced genetic algorithm (SA-GA) is proposed to optimize mask design and significantly improve the accuracy of lithography simulation. (2) How to optimize DMD lithography process by hybrid genetic algorithm and improved exposure model is further discussed. The book details how to enhance the diversity of the algorithm by introducing Gaussian noise, and achieve precise adjustment of the parameters of the exposure model through genetic operations such as two-point crossing and bit flip variation. (3) Aiming at the problem of edge jagging caused by non-integer pixel errors in DMD lithography, an optimization method of pixel overlap is proposed. This book not only introduces the theoretical basis and implementation methods of these optimization techniques in detail, but also demonstrates the remarkable effect of these techniques in improving the accuracy and efficiency of lithography through a large number of simulation experiments and practical cases.
