| GPS Based Toll Collection System | ||||||
A GPS-based toll collection system represents a modern approach to managing highway tolls through
the use of satellite-based navigation technology. Unlike traditional toll systems that rely on physical toll booths
and manual payment methods, GPS-based toll systems utilize the Global Positioning System (GPS) to track
vehicles in real-time and automatically calculate toll charges based on the vehicle's location and movement. This
system enhances both efficiency and user experience, as it eliminates the need for stopping at toll booths and
reduces congestion on roads...........

This research work deals with the immobilization of commercial lipase on Eggshell powder to form a heterogeneous renewable catalyst for biodiesel production by utilising waste cooking oil. This will cause to reduce the cost and increase the yield of biodiesel production, it will also increase the thermal stability of the lipase, which will enhance the yield of biodiesel production. The specific activities of lipase were increased to 40 u. The parameters for the synthesis of ELC (Eggshell- Lipase catalyst) were optimised to achieve high activity of ELC, which leads to increase the thermal stability of lipase, which will enhance the rate of production of biodiesel. The lipase immobilised with eggshell, was stable at 48 – 50°C for a prolonged time, which led to increased yield of biodiesel production from 22 % to ~ 92 %.

| Door unlock system using face recognition | ||||||
Face recognition is a technique for recognizing or validating an individual\'s identification by looking at their face. Face recognition software can identify persons in photographs, videos, or in real time. During police stops, officers may use mobile devices to identify persons. Computer vision is a method for understanding how photos and movies are stored, as well as manipulating and retrieving data from them. Artificial Intelligence relies on or is mostly based on computer vision. Self-driving cars, robotics, and picture editing apps all rely heavily on computer vision. The software used is OpenCV Library which is useful to display and process the image produced by webcam. In this paper, we employ Haar Cascade Classifier in an image processing of user face to render the face detection with high accuracy.

| Research on Translation Strategies for SHEIN's Cross-border E-commerce Advertising | ||||||
This research analyzes SHEIN's advertising translation strategies in cross-border e-commerce
across China, the U.S., and Europe. The study explores three main strategies: literal translation, free
translation, and localization. In China, SHEIN uses localization to evoke a festive shopping atmosphere. In
the U.S., literal translation ensures clear, direct messaging, appealing to individualist consumers. In
Europe, free translation emphasizes lifestyle and emotional appeal, aligning with local consumer values.
The findings suggest that these strategies effectively cater to the cultural preferences of each market,
enhancing SHEIN's global brand communication and market success.

| Evaluating the quality of desalinated ground water using reverse osmosis techniques: A case study of Tobruk city. Libya | ||||||
The city of Tobruk is located within the libya country, a semi-arid area with a fragile environment, characterized by poor soil, the absence of surface water, and scarce rainfall. the salinity of most groundwater reservoirs in the study area is high, ranging from 1620 to 3656 mg/L, making the water unsuitable for human use. The main objective was to evaluate the quality of groundwater desalinated by reverse osmosis plants. The results were then assessed using criteria established by the World Health Organization standards (WHO) and the National Center for Standards and Measurements of Libya, located at the Tajoura Industrial Research Center. Four groundwater wells were selected in different areas and samples were taken from each.............

| Blockchain and AI Integration for Agricultural Value Chains in African Markets | ||||||
Agriculture has always been the backbone of the economies of African nations, but most of the time it has been hampered by inefficient and opaque post-harvest losses. Digital technologies hold a promise to effectively solve these problems. Blockchain can create an end-to-end trackable system that is permissionless, traceable, and incorruptible. It makes available a smart contract framework for fair and self-executing transactions while reducing fraud. Predictive analysis through Artificial Inteigience(AI) can be useful in precision farming by optimizing yields, pest/disease detection, and market demand forecasting...............
