The inherent characteristics of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as limited storage and computational power, require a new platform to efficiently process data. The concept of fog computing has ...been introduced as a technology to bridge the gap between remote data centers and IoT devices. Fog computing enables a wide range of benefits, including enhanced security, decreased bandwidth, and reduced latency. These benefits make the fog an appropriate paradigm for many IoT services in various applications such as connected vehicles and smart grids. Nevertheless, fog devices (located at the edge of the Internet) obviously face many security and privacy threats, much the same as those faced by traditional data centers. In this article, the authors discuss the security and privacy issues in IoT environments and propose a mechanism that employs fog to improve the distribution of certificate revocation information among IoT devices for security enhancement. They also present potential research directions aimed at using fog computing to enhance the security and privacy issues in IoT environments.
Corporate adoption of renewables has been lukewarm at best in Singapore. This study aims to identify the drivers and barriers to renewable procurement, establish key criteria for renewable energy ...certificates (RECs, a type of renewable energy product), and recommend policies to accelerate corporate renewable energy adoption in Singapore. We surveyed seven drivers, 12 barriers, nine criteria of RECs, and 11 actions for REC adoption with 35 experienced professionals from major business sectors in Singapore. The top three drivers of corporate renewable procurement were to meet corporate sustainability goals, reduce energy procurement costs, and demonstrate corporate leadership. The most concerning criterion of RECs was traceability that RECs must be generated and transacted through a REC tracking system endorsed by the government or a third party. The most significant barrier to REC adoption was the lack of awareness of RECs and their benefits. Plausible actions to address the barriers include seeking support from senior management, establishing corporate sustainability targets, developing national standards for RECs, promoting successful local business cases, and for government to endorse private-sector REC tracking system(s). The findings could raise corporate awareness and assist policymakers in formulating policies, infrastructure, and initiatives to accelerate renewable energy adoption in Singapore.
The 1 + X certificate system, introduced in China in 2019, integrates academic credentials with vocational skill certificates to meet the heightened demand for skilled talents in the growing economy. ...This study aims to innovate and evaluate the vocational pharmaceutical education system under the 1 + X certificate framework, specifically addressing the gap between theoretical education and workplace requirements.
A retrospective observational approach analyzed 490 pharmacy students over two academic years. The 2021 cohort underwent 1 + X integrated education, while the 2020 cohort followed conventional education. We collaborated closely with industry partners to identify and compile typical job competencies, formulating work projects aligned with industry demands. Combining the skill level standards and assessment content of “1+X Pharmaceutical Purchasing and Sales” and “1+X Pharmaceutical Preparation”, we revised the course standards, incorporating typical work projects into the 2021 pharmacy professional teaching curriculum. This constituted the fundamental content of the 1 + X education reform. Statistical analysis compared course scores and 1 + X certificate examination performance.
The 2021 cohort, under the 1 + X educational model, demonstrated higher average scores in pharmacy courses, with significant improvements in pharmacology (1 + X vs. Traditional education: 58.40 ± 14.20 vs. 53.44 ± 14.67), clinical pharmacotherapy (72.74 ± 10.28 vs. 63.15 ± 11.03), and pharmaceutical distribution and marketing (79.34 ± 10.96 vs. 67.50 ± 15.82). 1 + X certificate pass rates and satisfaction with the model were also higher than the 2020 cohort.
The 1 + X certificate system is useful for developing talent in Chinese vocational education, effectively integrating assessments with industry standards. Future research should aim at evaluating long-term outcomes and improving quantitative skills assessments for enhanced effectiveness.

Land has a dual function, namely as a social asset and a capital asset. The function of land as a social asset is a means of binding social unity among the community and the function of land as a ...capital asset because land has grown as a very important economic object. recorded in the land book. However, the certificate can be canceled at any time and the cancellation of the certificate of land rights will have a further impact on the process of guaranteeing the inherent Mortgage.
The formulation of the problem in this research is, First, what is the consideration of the Judge of the State Administrative Court in canceling the certificate of ownership rights over land that is encumbered with mortgage rights? Second, What are the legal consequences of Certificate Cancellation based on a State Administrative Court Decision which has permanent legal force?
The specification of this research is descriptive analysis. The approach used in this research is a normative juridical approach. It is called this because this research is a library research or document study which is carried out aimed only at written regulations or other legal materials.
Based on the results of the research, it shows that (1) Consideration of State Administrative Court Judges in Cancellation of Certificate of Ownership of Land Burdened with Mortgage Rights (Case Analysis of Decision No. 43 / G / 2019 / PTUN.PDG) is to consider all evidence submitted by the parties to make a decision by describing the evidence relevant to the case and the judge's consideration is also based on the prevailing laws and regulations. (2) The legal consequence of the cancellation of a certificate based on the decision of the State Administrative Court which has permanent legal force is to cancel a decision, so that the result of the issuance of the cancellation decision is seen from the verdict of the court that has obtained permanent legal force (inkracht). If the Court Decision declares a certificate of ownership rights over land cancellation, then this will cause the land that has been issued a certificate of ownership rights on it to return to its original status, namely State land.
•EU policy efforts on energy efficiency in buildings stared in the 1970s in response to the oil crisis.•The first comprehensive EU policy was the SAVE directive in 1992, introducing policy actions ...still relevant today.•A major step forward was the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in 2002 and its subsequent amendments.•Mandatory energy performance standards are progressively converging towards near zero energy buildings.•Additional policies and financing are needed for the full decarbonisation of the building stock.
The reduction of energy demand in buildings through the adoption of energy efficiency policy is a key pillar of the European Union (EU) climate and energy strategy. Energy efficiency first emerged in the EU energy policy agenda in the 1970s and was progressively transformed with shifting global and EU energy and climate policies and priorities. The paper offers a review of EU energy policies spanning over the last half century with a focus on policy instruments to encourage measures on energy efficiency in new and existing buildings. Starting from early policies set by the EU in response to the Oil Embargo in the 1973, the paper discusses the impact of EU policies in stimulating energy efficiency improvements in the building sector ranging from the SAVE Directive to the recently 2018 updated Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and Energy Efficiency Directive. The review explores the progress made over the last 50 years in addressing energy efficiency in buildings and highlights successes as well as remaining challenges. It discusses the impact of political priorities in reshaping how energy efficiency is addressed by EU policymakers, leading to a holistic approach to buildings, and provides insights and suggestions on how to further exploit the EU potential to save energy from buildings.
