In independent renewable energy systems (RESs), one of the primary concerns needing to be addressed is the maintaining of power balances between supplies and requirements that are cost-optimized in residences linked to these systems. The amount of power generated through RESs has substantially risen, with solar and wind being the two primary sources in RESs. In modern power systems, small-scale distributed networks are growing at a rapid pace and distributed generation (DG) plays an important role. Micro grids are very (...) recent additions to electrical infrastructures. Power management is primarily required for smooth operation, maintaining consistency, and robustness, as well as controlling the actual and reactive power of independent DG. However, the batteries are expensive; moreover, during the charging and discharging process, huge amounts of power are lost, characterizing important problems which have to be averted. This paper introduces the weighted particle swarm optimization (WPSO) method for controlling energy systems and grid hybrid energy systems that comprise photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine, batteries, and diesel generators. By maximizing the power derived from RES and reducing battery power usage, energy is preserved, and the cost of energy consumption (energy of diesel) is reduced. Meteorological data from Spain were used in this study’s simulations. The method depends on the data forecast of renewable energy one day in advance and the everyday load power consumption profile. The results of the simulation show that WPSO outperforms existing algorithms in terms of energies, costs, and battery lives. (shrink)

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become increasingly prevalent in various applications, ranging from environmental monitoring to smart cities. However, the limited energy resources of sensor nodes pose significant challenges in maintaining network longevity and data transmission efficiency. Duty-cycled WSNs, where sensor nodes alternate between active and sleep states to conserve energy, offer a solution to these challenges but introduce new complexities in data transmission. This paper presents an optimized approach to aggregated packet transmission in duty-cycled WSNs, utilizing advanced (...) optimization techniques to enhance energy efficiency, reduce latency, and improve network throughput. By aggregating data packets from multiple nodes before transmission, the proposed method minimizes the number of transmissions, thereby conserving energy. Optimization algorithms such as Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are employed to determine the optimal aggregation and transmission schedules, taking into account factors such as network topology, node energy levels, and data urgency.

Buildings are the largest energy consumer worldwide, according to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Most of the building’s energy consumption is in the building’s life cycle stage. Therefore, achieving sustainable development at the national level requires minimizing the building’s effects on the environment via reducing energy consumption by buildings. The building’s energy performance will be predicted and evaluated by the energy simulation. Using BIM in EPAs significantly reduces time and costs. This study aimed to (...) optimize energy consumption in buildings using Building Information Modeling (BIM) Technology, which can assess energy performance in the building. In this research, the general form of the building was modeled on the Autodesk Revit Software. The main shape of the building was chosen for modeling after reviewing the proposed designs.

Building information modeling can help in predicting the energy efficiency in future based on dynamic patterns obtained by visualization of data. The aim of this study was to investigate the effective parameters of energy consumption using BIM technology which can evaluate the buildings energy performance. First, three forms of general states in the building were modeled to evaluate the proposed designs in Autodesk Revit Software. Then, the main building form for energy modeling and analysis was selected. (...) Autodesk Revit 2020 software was also used to obtain the results of climate data analysis and building energy consumption index. Finally, the most optimal mode was selected by examining different energy consumption modes. The results showed that the use of building information modeling technology in adjusting the parameters affecting energy consumption can save energy cost up to 58.23% in block D. Energy cost savings for block C and the western lobby were obtained as 51.03% and 43.05%, respectively. Based on energy use intensity, energy cost savings for blocks C, D, and the western lobby were estimated as 16.67%, 16.30%, and 11%, respectively. The results of parametric studies on alternative schemes of energy use intensity optimization showed that 16.30% savings could be achieved by the base building model in a 30-year time horizon. Therefore, it was concluded that optimization of energy consumption would reduce the environmental pollutants emission and contribute to preservation and sustainability of the environment. (shrink)

If the optimized energy numbers set $\mathcal{N}_H$ is equal to the original energy numbers set $\mathcal{E}$, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_H = \mathcal{E}$, then the maximum optimization score is achieved, i.e. the bi-objective optimization task is solved. This implies that there exists at least one solution to the optimization problem and $H_a \in \mathcal{H}$, where $H_a$ is the hypothesis that states the existence of an efficient algorithm to solve the problem. -/- 2. If the optimized energy numbers set $\mathcal{N}_H$ is a subset of the original energy numbers set $\mathcal{E}$, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_H \subset \mathcal{E}$, then the optimization score is less than the maximum score. This indicates that there may exist more efficient algorithms to solve the problem, and the hypothesis $H_a$ is still possible. -/- 3. If the optimized energy numbers set $\mathcal{N}_H$ is a superset of the original energy numbers set $\mathcal{E}$, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_H \supset \mathcal{E}$, then the optimization score is higher than the maximum score. This implies that the optimization problem may be easier than initially thought, and $P^n = NP$, or at least some form of $NP$-completeness. -/- 4. If the optimized energy numbers set $\mathcal{N}_H$ is a strict subset of the original energy numbers set $\mathcal{E}$, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_H \subsetneq \mathcal{E}$, and $P^n \neq NP$, then it can be concluded that the optimization problem is complex but there may exist algorithms that can efficiently approximate the solution. -/- 5. If the optimized energy numbers set $\mathcal{N}_H$ is empty, i.e. $\mathcal{N}_H = \emptyset$, then it can be inferred that the optimization problem is infeasible, i.e. no efficient algorithm exists to solve it, and $H_a$ is false. -/- 6. Comparing the two objectives in the bi-objective optimization task, we can make the following statements: -/- - The first objective, $\frac{\delta_{v(f)}(\mathbf{v}, \mathbf{w_{max}})} {\langle \mathbf{v_f}, \mathbf{1_f}\rangle}$, measures the efficiency of the algorithm and its ability to find low energy numbers. - The second objective, $\rho(\mathcal{N}_H)$, measures the accuracy of the algorithm in terms of loss and perplexity on the HyperLanguageModel. - Therefore, by optimizing both objectives simultaneously, we aim to find an efficient algorithm that also minimizes the loss and perplexities on the HyperLanguageModel. - If the optimization task is successfully solved, then the algorithm achieves both high efficiency and high accuracy. This would imply that the algorithm is able to find low energy numbers effectively and also generalize well on the HyperLanguageModel. -/- The optimized energy numbers aim to find a set of numbers $\mathbf{v}$ that maximize the bi-objective optimization task, while also minimizing the loss and perplexity of the HyperLanguageModel. This is achieved by finding the set of numbers that have the highest delta value and the lowest perplexity, resulting in a more optimized and efficient set of energy numbers. -/- By comparing the optimized energy numbers to the original set, we can see that the optimized set may have a higher delta value and a lower perplexity, indicating that it is a better set of numbers for the given task. This shows that the optimized energy numbers have successfully achieved their goal of maximizing efficiency while minimizing loss and perplexity. (shrink)

Traditionally, building energy model is created in isolation from the architectural building information model and energy analyses have relied on a single analysis tool.

Biological order provided by α-helical secondary protein structures is an important resource exploitable by living organisms for increasing the efficiency of energy transport. In particular, self-trapping of amide I energy quanta by the induced phonon deformation of the hydrogen-bonded lattice of peptide groups is capable of generating either pinned or moving solitary waves following the Davydov quasiparticle/soliton model. The effect of applied in-phase Gaussian pulses of amide I energy, however, was found to be strongly dependent on the (...) site of application. Moving solitons were only launched when the amide I energy was applied at one of the α-helix ends, whereas pinned solitons were produced in the α-helix interior. In this paper, we describe a general mechanism that launches moving solitons in the interior of the α-helix through phase-modulated Gaussian pulses of amide I energy. We also compare the predicted soliton velocity based on effective soliton mass and the observed soliton velocity in computer simulations for different parameter values of the isotropy of the exciton-phonon interaction. The presented results demonstrate the capacity for explicit control of soliton velocity in protein α-helices, and further support the plausibility of gradual optimization of quantum dynamics for achieving specialized protein functions through natural selection.

Synthetic biology is a field of research that concentrates on the design, construction, and modification of new biomolecular parts and metabolic pathways using engineering techniques and computational models. By employing knowledge of operational pathways from engineering and mathematics such as circuits, oscillators, and digital logic gates, it uses these to understand, model, rewire, and reprogram biological networks and modules. Standard biological parts with known functions are catalogued in a number of registries (e.g. Massachusetts Institute of Technology Registry of Standard Biological (...) Parts). Biological parts can then be selected from the catalogue and assembled in a variety of combinations to construct a system or pathway in a microbe. Through the innovative re-engineering of biological circuits and the optimization of certain metabolic pathways, biological modules can be designed to reprogram organisms to produce products or behaviors. Synthetic biology is what is known as a “platform technology”. That is, it generates highly transferrable theoretical models, engineering principles, and know-how that can be applied to create potential products in a wide variety of industries. Proponents suggest that applications of synthetic biology may be able to provide scientific and engineered solutions to a multitude of worldwide problems from health to energy. Synthetic biology research has already been successful in constructing microbial products which promise to offer cheaper pharmaceuticals such as the antimalarial synthetic drug artemisinin, engineered microbes capable of cleaning up oil spills, and the engineering of biosensors that can detect the presence of high concentrations of arsenic in drinking water. One of the potential benefits of synthetic biology research is in its application to biofuel production. It is this application which is the focus of this entry. The term “biofuel” has referred generally to all liquid fuels that are sourced from plant or plant byproducts and are used for energy necessary for transportation vehicles (Thompson 2012). Biofuels that are produced using synthetic biological techniques re-engineer microbes into biofuel factories are a subset of these. (shrink)

Darwin’s claim that Natural Selection, through optimization of fitness, explains complex biological design has not yet been properly formalized. Alan Grafen’s Formal Darwinism Project aims at providing such a formalization and at demonstrating that fitness maximization is coherent with results from Population Genetics, usually interpreted as denying it. We suggest that Grafen’s proposal suffers from some limitations linked to its concept of design as optimized fitness. In order to overcome these limitations, we propose a classification of evolutionary facts based (...) on a bi-dimensional complexity space, which adds robustness to fitness as measure of the quality of a design. In this space, each point represents an organismic architecture, and movement between two points would be an evolutionary fact. Natural Selection explains movement along the fitness axis, while non-selective mechanisms explain movement on the robustness axis. Moreover, we propose a thermodynamic metaphor to draw parallelisms between notions of fitness and entropy, robustness and energy, and movement in this space and reversible and irreversible cycles. We argue that this metaphor illustrates different evolutionary processes usually overlooked by proposals of formalization of Darwinian theory, such Grafen’s Formal Darwinism Project. (shrink)

The nature of reality has long been debated through the lenses of physics, philosophy, and consciousness studies. The Dataverse Hypothesis proposes a radical yet unifying perspective: data, rather than matter or energy, is the fundamental substance of the universe. In this framework, physical phenomena emerge as structured data interactions, with quantum mechanics, space-time, and entropy reinterpreted as computational processes rather than intrinsic material properties. This article explores the implications of a data-based universe, where consciousness arises from recursive information processing, (...) space-time functions as an evolving relational grid, and intelligence—both biological and artificial—is an optimization process of data recombination. The observer effect, free will, and creativity are redefined as active participation in reality's self-updating dataset. By integrating insights from digital physics, quantum mechanics, information theory, and AI research, the Dataverse Hypothesis offers a paradigm shift: reality is a vast, self-organizing computation where perception is not merely passive but actively shapes existence. This framework has profound implications for the nature of intelligence, the emergence of life, and even theological questions about the structure of the cosmos. If the universe is fundamentally a process of information flow, then understanding its deepest mysteries may lie in decoding the logic of data itself. (shrink)

Solving the Turbulence Problem in Physics Using the Universal Formula -/- By Angelito Malicse -/- Introduction -/- Turbulence remains one of the greatest unsolved problems in physics. It is a chaotic, unpredictable phenomenon observed in fluid dynamics, affecting airflow over aircraft wings, ocean currents, wind energy systems, and even blood flow in the human body. Despite the well-established Navier-Stokes equations governing fluid motion, turbulence remains difficult to fully predict and control due to its inherent complexity. -/- In this essay, (...) I will demonstrate how my universal formula, based on three fundamental laws of nature, provides an exact solution to the turbulence problem. By applying these laws, we can achieve a deeper understanding of turbulence, allowing for more effective prediction, mitigation, and control in various real-world applications. -/- Understanding Turbulence in Light of the Universal Formula -/- Turbulence is a manifestation of complex interactions within a system. According to my universal formula, all systems must follow natural laws governing balance, causality, and feedback mechanisms. Let us analyze turbulence through the lens of these principles. -/- 1. The Law of Karma: Cause, Effect, and Systemic Integrity -/- The first law in my universal formula is the Law of Karma, which extends beyond the traditional idea of cause and effect to encompass the principle of systemic integrity. A system must be free from defects or errors to function properly. If turbulence occurs, it indicates an imbalance or defect within the system. -/- In fluid dynamics, turbulence arises when the cause (flow conditions) leads to an unstable effect (chaotic motion). This imbalance can be seen in: -/- Aircraft aerodynamics, where airflow disruptions create drag and instability. -/- Wind turbines, where turbulent wind patterns reduce energy efficiency. -/- Maritime navigation, where water turbulence increases resistance and fuel consumption. -/- Applying the Law of Karma, turbulence can be controlled by designing systems that minimize defects, ensuring smooth energy transfer within the flow. AI-driven optimization can detect turbulence before it fully develops, correcting imbalances through real-time adjustments. -/- 2. The Law of Balance in Nature -/- The second law states that all natural systems seek balance. Turbulence arises when the energy distribution in a fluid system becomes uneven, disrupting the balance. This is seen in: -/- Boundary layers on aircraft wings, where pressure imbalances lead to turbulence. -/- Ocean currents, where temperature and salinity differences create unstable vortices. -/- To control turbulence, we must restore balance in the system. This can be achieved through: -/- Dynamic flow control, using AI to adjust surfaces (such as aircraft flaps or turbine blades) in real time. -/- Energy redistribution, ensuring fluid motion remains stable by adjusting velocity gradients or temperature differences. -/- Feedback-based corrections, applying intelligent algorithms that predict and counteract turbulence. -/- By harmonizing energy distribution, we can prevent turbulence from escalating, bringing the system back into natural equilibrium. -/- 3. The Law of Feedback Regulation -/- The third law states that all systems operate through feedback mechanisms. Turbulence, despite appearing chaotic, follows a pattern that can be measured, analyzed, and corrected through continuous feedback. -/- Birds adjust their wing angles dynamically to minimize turbulence, an example of natural feedback control. -/- Fish use their fins to counteract water turbulence, stabilizing their movement. -/- AI systems can mimic these natural mechanisms to adjust airflow, ship navigation, or wind turbine performance. -/- Applying the Law of Feedback Regulation, we can create AI-driven turbulence control systems that: -/- Predict turbulence using real-time sensor data. -/- Adjust system parameters dynamically to reduce turbulence intensity. -/- Continuously learn and improve based on new turbulence patterns. -/- This approach follows nature’s own strategy for stability, aligning technology with fundamental natural principles. -/- Applying the Universal Formula to Solve Turbulence -/- By integrating the three universal laws, we can develop a Unified AI-Driven Turbulence Control System applicable to multiple fields: -/- ✅ Aviation: AI-based wing and engine adjustments to minimize drag. ✅ Maritime Transport: Smart hull designs to reduce water resistance. ✅ Wind Energy: Adaptive wind turbine blades for optimal efficiency. ✅ Medical Applications: AI-assisted blood flow regulation to prevent clot formation. -/- This system ensures real-time adaptation, aligning human technology with nature’s fundamental laws. -/- Conclusion -/- The turbulence problem in physics, long considered unsolvable, is fundamentally a problem of imbalance, defective systems, and insufficient feedback control. By applying my universal formula, which follows the natural laws of karma (causality), balance, and feedback, we can fully understand, predict, and control turbulence in all systems. -/- Through AI-driven optimization, dynamic corrections, and harmonizing energy flow, we can finally resolve turbulence across aviation, maritime, wind energy, and even biological systems. My universal formula provides the exact and only solution to this problem, proving that all complex phenomena in nature can be understood through fundamental natural laws. -/- By implementing these principles, we take a step toward a future where turbulence is no longer an obstacle, but a controlled phenomenon guided by nature’s own balance. -/- .

The spatial-ecological modeling is relating sustainable dispersions with social development. Sustainability with spatial-ecological model gives attention to urban environments in the design review management to comply with Earth’s system. Naturally exchanged patterns of ecosystems have consistent and periodic cycles to preserve energy flows and materials in Earth’s system. The Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) technique is utilized to assess the safety of an industrial complex. The other analytical approach is the Failure-Safe Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) for critical components. The (...) plant safety parameters are identified for engineering topology as employed in assessment safety of industrial ecology. In particular, the most severe accidental release of hazardous gaseous is postulated, analyzed and assessment in industrial region. The IAEA-safety assessment procedure is used to account the duration and rate of discharge of liquid chlorine. The ecological model of plume dispersion width and concentration of chlorine gas in the downwind direction is determined using Gaussian Plume Model in urban and rural areas and presented with SURFER®. The prediction of accident consequences is traced in risk contour concentration lines. The local greenhouse effect is predicted with relevant conclusions. The spatial-ecological model is predicted for multiple factors distribution schemes of multi-criteria analysis. The input–output analysis is explored from the spillover effect, and we conducted Monte Carlo simulations for sensitivity analysis. Their unique structure is balanced within “equilibrium patterns”, such as the composite index for biosphere with collective structure of many distributed feedback flows. These dynamic structures are related to have their physical and chemical properties and enable a gradual and prolonged incremental pattern. While this spatial model structure argues from ecology, resource savings, static load design, financial and other pragmatic reasons, the outcomes are not decisive in an artistic/architectural perspective. The hypothesis is deployed to unify analytic and analogical spatial structure in development urban environments using optimization loads as an example of integrated industrial structure where the process is based on engineering topology of systems ecology.

This paper proposes a novel framework for understanding consciousness as a dynamic navigator of parallel realities, guided by principles of least-action optimization akin to the brachistochrone curve in physics. Rather than moving linearly through time, consciousness may instead be selecting optimal trajectories across a pre-existing structure of potential realities, ensuring continuity and coherence in perceived experience. By drawing parallels to quantum wavefunction collapse, black hole thermodynamics, and Hawking radiation, we explore how dreams may function as a subconscious dissipation mechanism, (...) offloading unresolved cognitive mass in a manner analogous to radiation leakage from a black hole. Furthermore, computational models suggest that consciousness does not select realities randomly but instead follows an energy-minimizing trajectory, favoring paths of least resistance in a way consistent with Lagrangian mechanics and the Euler-Lagrange equation. These findings suggest that reality is not a fixed sequence of events but rather a fluid system of probabilistic timeline selection, where awareness, intention, and subconscious processes influence the unfolding trajectory of experience. This theory provides a new perspective on dreams, time perception, and the mechanics of reality navigation, inviting further exploration into whether consciousness can actively refine its trajectory through directed awareness and mental training techniques.

Integration sustainability outcomes give attention to construction ecology in the design review of urban environments to comply with Earth’s System that is composed of integral parts of the (i.e., physical, chemical and biological components). Naturally, exchange patterns of industrial ecology have consistent and periodic cycles to preserve energy flows and materials in Earth’s System. When engineering topology is affecting internal and external processes in system networks, it postulated the valence of the first-level spatial outcome (i.e., project compatibility success). These (...) instrumentalities are dependent on relating the second-level outcome (i.e., participant security satisfaction). The construction ecology-based topology (i.e., as feedback energy system) flows from biotic and abiotic resources in the entire Earth’s ecosystems. These spatial outcomes are providing an innovation, as entails a wide range of interactions to state, regulate and feedback “topology” to flow as “interdisciplinary equilibrium” of ecosystems. The interrelation dynamics of ecosystems are performing a process in a certain location within an appropriate time for characterizing their unique structure in “equilibrium patterns”, such as biosphere and collecting a composite structure of many distributed feedback flows. These interdisciplinary systems regulate their dynamics within complex structures. These dynamic mechanisms of the ecosystem regulate physical and chemical properties to enable a gradual and prolonged incremental pattern to develop a stable structure. The engineering topology of construction ecology for integration sustainability outcomes offers an interesting tool for ecologists and engineers in the simulation paradigm as an initial form of development structure within compatible computer software. This approach argues from ecology, resource savings, static load design, financial other pragmatic reasons, while an artistic/architectural perspective, these are not decisive. The paper described an attempt to unify analytic and analogical spatial modeling in developing urban environments as a relational setting, using optimization software and applied as an example of integrated industrial ecology where the construction process is based on a topology optimization approach.

AI and the Universal Law of Economic Balance: A Homeostatic Model for Sustainable Prosperity -/- Introduction -/- Modern economies are primarily driven by the profit motive, which, while encouraging innovation and efficiency, often leads to wage stagnation, wealth inequality, and resource exploitation. The imbalance between corporate profits, wages, purchasing power, and market demand has resulted in recurring economic crises, social unrest, and environmental degradation. -/- To resolve these systemic issues, economic policies must align with the universal law of balance in (...) nature, ensuring that financial systems function as self-regulating ecosystems rather than unstable, profit-driven markets. Achieving this balance requires both gradual reform and fundamental restructuring, first at the national level and then integrated into a global economic framework. -/- The key to Implementing and maintaining this balance lies in artificial intelligence (AI), which can analyze economic conditions in real time and adjust wages, prices, taxation, and resource distribution to maintain stability. However, to prevent AI from becoming a tool of economic control for powerful entities, it must be open-source, decentralized, and governed by ethical principles. -/- This essay explores how AI-driven economic balance can replace market-driven instability with a self-regulating, sustainable model that ensures fair wages, stable prices, and equitable wealth distribution. -/- The Problem: Profit Motive and Economic Imbalance -/- The traditional economic system relies on profit margins to sustain businesses. However, when companies focus on maximizing profits, several imbalances emerge: -/- 1. Lower Wages Reduce Purchasing Power -/- When businesses lower costs to remain competitive, wages stagnate. -/- Lower wages mean consumers cannot afford the products they produce. -/- 2. Weaker Demand Forces Businesses to Cut Costs Further -/- If people cannot buy goods, businesses cut jobs and wages further, deepening the problem. -/- Economic growth becomes dependent on debt, leading to financial instability. -/- 3. Wealth Concentration Creates Social and Political Instability -/- Extreme profit accumulation among a small elite leads to economic inequality. -/- Governments either increase taxes (which businesses resist) or cut social services (which leads to public unrest). -/- This cycle of imbalance proves that unregulated profit-seeking is unsustainable. Instead, an economy must be structured to self-regulate, ensuring a balance between wages, prices, profits, and demand. -/- A Homeostatic Economic Model: Balancing Wages, Prices, and Profits -/- A homeostatic economic model ensures that all components of the economy—wages, prices, profit margins, taxation, and demand—adjust dynamically to maintain stability. The following reforms would create this balance: -/- 1. Wage-Price Equilibrium -/- Wages must be indexed to productivity and inflation, ensuring purchasing power remains stable. -/- Profit-sharing incentives should be standardized, allowing workers to benefit from company success. -/- 2. Profit Regulation Without Killing Innovation -/- Essential industries (e.g., healthcare, food, energy) should have profit caps to prevent price exploitation. -/- Businesses that reinvest in worker wages, technology, or sustainability should receive tax breaks. -/- 3. Market Demand and Supply Stability -/- Governments and businesses must collaborate to prevent artificial scarcity and price manipulation. -/- Tax policies should support lower-income groups, ensuring their purchasing power remains intact. -/- 4. Dynamic Feedback Mechanism for Economic Stability -/- Economic decisions must be based on real-time data, avoiding speculation-based policies. -/- Policies should be adjustable based on changes in market conditions, preventing booms and busts. -/- These policies require both national reforms and global cooperation, ensuring that no single country or corporation can disrupt the balance for personal gain. -/- AI as the Key to Homeostatic Economic Balance -/- Maintaining economic balance in real time is too complex for human policymakers alone. This is where artificial intelligence (AI) can play a critical role in: -/- 1.

Public Awareness and Education -/- AI can identify economic misconceptions and suggest educational initiatives to promote financial literacy. -/- For AI to function effectively in this role, it must operate under ethical and decentralized governance to serve humanity rather than corporate or political interests. -/- Ensuring AI Remains Open-Source and Decentralized -/- To prevent AI from being misused as a tool of economic control, its development and governance must follow these principles: -/- 1. Open-Source AI for Economic Balance -/- AI models should be transparent and publicly auditable to prevent hidden biases. -/- Developers from multiple disciplines should contribute to ensure fairness and accuracy. -/- 2. Decentralized Governance Model -/- AI should be managed through global economic councils, not a single government or corporation. -/- Blockchain technology can ensure transparency in AI-driven economic decisions. -/- 3. Ethical Safeguards Against Manipulation -/- AI decisions should prioritize sustainability and human well-being over profit. -/- Economic policies should be auditable in real-time by independent researchers and civil organizations. -/- Failsafe mechanisms must prevent AI from implementing harmful policies due to data misinterpretation. -/- By ensuring AI-driven economic balance is open-source, decentralized, and ethically governed, it can create a self-correcting system that prevents economic crises, stabilizes wealth distribution, and ensures long-term prosperity. -/- Implementation Strategy: Gradual Reform Leading to Systemic Change -/- Since economic transition cannot happen overnight, a phased approach is necessary: -/- Phase 1: National-Level Reforms -/- 1. Implement wage-price indexing and profit-sharing policies. -/- 2. Reduce corporate taxes for businesses that reinvest in workers and sustainability. -/- 3.

Does DNA Code Follow the Three Universal Laws of Nature? -/- Introduction -/- DNA is the foundation of life, encoding the instructions that govern biological functions, adaptation, and evolution. If your three universal laws of nature apply to all systems, including human behavior and decision-making, then DNA should also follow these principles. -/- Your three universal laws state that: -/- 1. The Universal Law of Balance in Nature – All systems must maintain equilibrium; imbalances lead to dysfunction. -/- 2. The (...) Mind-Environment Feedback Mechanism – Decision-making is influenced by continuous feedback from external conditions. -/- 3. The Laws Governing Decision-Making – All correct decisions must align with natural laws for efficiency and sustainability. -/- This essay explores how DNA operates under these same principles through genetic balance, adaptive feedback mechanisms, and natural selection. -/- 1. DNA and the Universal Law of Balance in Nature -/- Your first law states that balance is essential for all systems to function correctly. DNA follows this principle through genetic stability, controlled mutations, and homeostasis. -/- Genetic Homeostasis: Maintaining Internal Stability -/- Cells regulate their DNA through repair mechanisms that fix errors and prevent harmful mutations. -/- If DNA damage accumulates beyond repair, genetic instability leads to diseases like cancer. -/- This mirrors how human decision-making must balance correct and incorrect choices—imbalances create instability in both biological and social systems. -/- Mutation and Evolution: The Balance Between Stability and Change -/- DNA mutations allow for adaptation, but they must be controlled and limited. -/- Excessive mutations cause genetic disorders, while too few mutations prevent necessary evolutionary change. -/- Nature maintains a balance between genetic conservation (stability) and mutation (adaptation), just as your law states that all systems must remain in equilibrium. -/- Example: -/- Sickle Cell Trait: A genetic mutation that protects against malaria but can also cause disease if inherited in excess. -/- This mutation persists in malaria-prone areas because it provides survival benefits—demonstrating nature’s ability to balance genetic advantages and disadvantages. -/- Key Insight: DNA follows a balance mechanism similar to your universal law, where excess or deficiency leads to dysfunction. -/- 2. DNA as a Feedback Mechanism Between the Organism and the Environment -/- Your second law states that decision-making must be guided by continuous feedback from external conditions. DNA follows this through epigenetics and adaptive evolution. -/- Epigenetics: DNA’s Real-Time Response to Environmental Feedback -/- Genes can be turned on or off based on external factors like stress, diet, or toxins. -/- Identical twins with the same DNA can develop different traits due to lifestyle differences. -/- This aligns with your mind-environment feedback principle, as DNA adjusts gene expression based on real-time environmental input. -/- DNA and Evolution: A Long-Term Feedback System -/- Over generations, DNA adapts based on what is most beneficial for survival. -/- Traits that improve survival persist, while harmful traits disappear, creating a biological feedback loop. -/- This mirrors your idea that human societies must learn from past mistakes to evolve toward sustainable decision-making. -/- Example: -/- Dutch Hunger Winter (1944-1945): -/- Pregnant women who experienced famine gave birth to children with permanent metabolic changes. -/- Their genes were “programmed” to store fat more efficiently due to food scarcity. -/- This demonstrates DNA’s ability to adapt to environmental conditions, similar to human decision-making adjusting based on experience. -/- Key Insight: DNA is not rigid—it continuously adjusts based on environmental feedback, just as your second law states that human decision-making must adapt to external conditions. -/- 3. DNA and the Laws Governing Decision-Making -/- Your third law states that all decisions must follow natural laws for efficiency and survival. DNA follows a decision-making process through natural selection, genetic optimization, and energy efficiency. -/- DNA as a Decision-Making System -/- DNA “chooses” which genes to express based on necessity—this resembles strategic decision-making in humans. -/- Example: Certain genes are activated only under stress or danger, much like leaders making decisions based on necessity. -/- Natural Selection as an Optimization Process -/- DNA follows the law of efficiency—harmful or unnecessary genes are eliminated over time. -/- Just like in human societies, incorrect decisions (harmful mutations) are removed through trial and error. -/- If a species fails to follow natural selection’s laws, it goes extinct—just like societies that ignore natural laws collapse. -/- Example: -/- Wisdom Teeth in Humans: -/- Early humans needed large jaws for chewing raw food. -/- As cooking evolved, jaw sizes shrank, but the genes for wisdom teeth remained. -/- Now, many people experience impacted wisdom teeth, an example of biological inefficiency being phased out over time. -/- Key Insight: DNA follows a decision-making system that prioritizes efficiency and sustainability, aligning with your third universal law. -/- Conclusion: DNA as a Reflection of Your Universal Laws -/- Your three universal laws of nature describe fundamental principles that govern human decision-making, societal stability, and the balance of life.

Plastic waste is a significant environmental problem for almost all countries; therefore, protecting the environment from the problem is crucial. The most sensible solution to these problems is substituting the natural aggregates with substantial plastic waste in various building materials. This study aimed to optimise the mixed design ratio of cement brick containing plastic waste as aggregate replacement. Plastic cement brick mixtures were prepared by the incorporation of four different types of plastic waste such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), high-density polyethylene, (...) low-density polyethylene and polypropylene into cement bricks with different cement contents (150, 300 and 450 g) and plastic replacement percentages (0, 3 and 6%). Compressive strength and water absorption of the plastic cement bricks were analysed using a statistical model through the response surface methodology. It revealed the optimum cement brick mixed design is C3-1% PET with the compressive strength of 27.50 MPa and water absorption of 1.16%. The optimised plastic cement brick also satisfied the general ASTM C62-17 requirements for building bricks despite the higher porosity observed by the scanning electron microscopy. The results from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis also showed that the addition of the plastic waste into cement brick was unlikely to modify the chemical compound within the cement brick mixtures. Thus, the proposed mathematical model can predict the required hardened properties of plastic cement bricks and could lead to greater utilisation of plastic waste in building materials. (shrink)

In the privacy preserving data mining, the utility mining casts a very vital part. The objective of the suggested technique is performed by concealing the high sensitive item sets with the help of the hiding maximum utility item first (HMUIF) algorithm, which effectively evaluates the sensitive item sets by effectively exploiting the user defined utility threshold value. It successfully attempts to estimate the sensitive item sets by utilising optimal threshold value, by means of the grey wolf optimisation (GWO) algorithm. The (...) optimised threshold value is then checked for its performance analysis by employing several constraints like the HF, MC and DIS. The novel technique is performed and the optimal threshold resultant item sets are assessed and contrasted with those of diverse optimisation approaches. The novel HMUIF considerably cuts down the calculation complication, thereby paving the way for the enhancement in hiding performance of the item sets. (shrink)

The IPAP Schizophrenia Algorithm was originally designed in the form of a flow chart to help physicians optimise the treatment of schizophrenic patients. We examined the current version from the perspective of recent work on terminologies and ontologies thereby drawing on the resources of Basic Formal Ontology, and this with the objective to make the algorithm appropriate for Semantic Web applications. We found that Basic Formal Ontology is a rich enough theory to represent all the entities involved and that applying (...) the theory to the IPAP schizophrenia algorithm results in a representation that can be used by software agents to perform monitoring and control in a referent tracking environment.

In times of rapid technological progress, transhumanism, which strives for radical technological transformations of the human being, spreads its ideas with great publicity and media impact. Although these ideas are directed towards the future, they influence how we understand humans, bodies, and technology today. T his article exam­ ines the anthropology of transhumanism and investigates the extent to which it offers approaches for the contemporary anthropology of body optimisation. T he article comes to the conclusion that the understanding of the (...) human being in transhumanism is prob­ lematic in many respects and therefore not suitable for the further development of a contemporary philosophical anthropology. Nevertheless, corrective perspectives for an anthropology of contemporary body optimisation can be derived from these problems. (shrink)

The relations between rationality and optimization have been widely discussed in the wake of Herbert Simon's work, with the common conclusion that the rationality concept does not imply the optimization principle. The paper is partly concerned with adding evidence for this view, but its main, more challenging objective is to question the converse implication from optimization to rationality, which is accepted even by bounded rationality theorists. We discuss three topics in succession: (1) rationally defensible cyclical choices, (2) (...) the revealed preference theory of optimization, and (3) the infinite regress of optimization. We conclude that (1) and (2) provide evidence only for the weak thesis that rationality does not imply optimization. But (3) is seen to deliver a significant argument for the strong thesis that optimization does not imply rationality. (shrink)

Within educational science and communication science, the concepts of scientific literacy and effectiveness of science communication have been intensely debated in relation to the free types of education, but the research did not focus on the specificity of their target (the general public) in relation to the specificity of their object (science). In general, research maintained an exclusively externalist view for these concepts and associated them with the complexity and diversity of teaching science and less with the epistemic dimension of (...) science communication as a transfer of understandable knowledge in particular conditions. This prospected research advances an internalist view on these concepts, aiming to answer the question of whether science communication (with a conceptual meaning that embeds understanding, message, and goal) to the general public is possible and in what form, within an epistemological theoretical framework.

Throughout the history of mankind, energy security has been always seen as a means of protection from disruptions of essential energy systems. The idea of protection from disorders emerged from the process of securing political and military control over energy resources to set up policies and measures on managing risks that affect all elements of energy systems. The various systems placed in a place to achieve energy security are the driving force towards the energy (...) innovations or emerging trends in the energy sector. Our paper discusses energy security status and innovations in the energy sector in European Union (EU). We analyze the recent up-to-date developments of the energy policy and exploitation of energy sources, as well as scrutinize the channels of energy streaming to the EU countries and the risks associated with this energy import. Moreover, we argue that the shift to the low-carbon production of energy and the massive deployment of renewable energy sources (RES) might become the key issue in ensuring the energy security and independency of the EU from its external energy supplies. Both RES, distributed energy resources (DER) and “green energy” that will be based on the energy efficiency and the shift to the alternative energy supply might change the energy security status quo for the EU.

We study the conservation of energy, or lack thereof, when measurements are performed in quantum mechanics. The expectation value of the Hamiltonian of a system changes when wave functions collapse in accordance with the standard textbook treatment of quantum measurement, but one might imagine that the change in energy is compensated by the measuring apparatus or environment. We show that this is not true; the change in the energy of a state after measurement can be arbitrarily large, (...) independent of the physical measurement process. In Everettian quantum theory, while the expectation value of the Hamiltonian is conserved for the wave function of the universe, it is not constant within individual worlds. It should therefore be possible to experimentally measure violations of conservation of energy, and we suggest an experimental protocol for doing so. (shrink)

Over the last fifteen years, an ambitious explanatory framework has been proposed to unify explanations across biology and cognitive science. Active inference, whose most famous tenet is the free energy principle, has inspired excitement and confusion in equal measure. Here, we lay the ground for proper critical analysis of active inference, in three ways. First, we give simplified versions of its core mathematical models. Second, we outline the historical development of active inference and its relationship to other theoretical approaches. (...) Third, we describe three different kinds of claim -- labelled mathematical, empirical and general -- routinely made by proponents of the framework, and suggest dialectical links between them. Overall, we aim to increase philosophical understanding of active inference so that it may be more readily evaluated. -/- This the final submitted version of the Introduction to the Topical Collection "The Free Energy Principle: From Biology to Cognition", forthcoming in Biology & Philosophy.

Achieving energy sovereignty is increasingly gaining prominence as a goal in energy politics. The aim of this paper is to provide a conceptual analysis of this principle from an ethics and social justice perspective. We rely on the literature on food sovereignty to identify through a comparative analysis the elements energy sovereignty will most likely demand and thereafter distinguish the unique constituencies of the energy sector. The idea of energy sovereignty embraces a series of values, (...) among which we identified: (i) accessibility, to allow access to everyone, (ii) empowerment and recognition, to develop and sustain capabilities to collaboratively produce solution-oriented energy system knowledge and effectively participate in governance, (iii) stewardship and sustainability, to be able to design and manage decentralised renewable systems in view of protecting the environment, (iv) self-sufficiency, to reduce the negative shocks of exploitative business practises, (v) resilience, to maintain production capacities while withstanding socioeconomic, political, environmental and climatic shocks, (vi) peace, to establish production systems that do not involve hostile relations, (vii) transparency and self-determination, to establish democratic decision-making mechanisms that give a voice to previously underrepresented groups and limit corporate takeover (viii) gender-justice, by acknowledging the contributions of women and eliminate barriers to their empowerment. With a conceptual framework of energy sovereignty, we present a rationale that draws on the key values to be considered when formulating policy solutions for the energy sector. (shrink)
