We are excited to announce that our paper "Energy-Efficient Edge Computing for Agricultural IoT Applications in Sub-Saharan Africa" has been accepted for presentation at IEEE AFRICON 2024.
Paper Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to energy-efficient edge computing specifically designed for agricultural IoT applications in regions with limited power infrastructure. We propose a hybrid solar-powered computing architecture that reduces energy consumption by 45% while maintaining real-time data processing capabilities.
Presentation Details
The presentation will cover: - The challenges of deploying IoT systems in rural agricultural settings - Our proposed solar-powered edge computing architecture - Experimental results from field deployments in Nigerian farms - Future directions for smart agriculture in Africa
