A Novel Generalization of Q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Aczel Alsina Aggregation Operators and Their Application in Wireless Sensor Networks

Q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets have been proven to be highly effective at handling uncertain data and have gained importance in decision-making processes. Torra's hesitant fuzzy model, on the other hand, offers a more generalized approach to fuzzy sets. Both of these frameworks have demonstrated their efficiency in decision algorithms, with numerous scholars contributing established theories to this research domain. In this paper, recognizing the significance of these frameworks, we amalgamated their principles to create a novel model known as Q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy sets. Additionally, we undertook an exploration of Aczel-Alsina aggregation operators within this innovative context. This exploration resulted in the development of a series of aggregation operators, including Q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy Aczel-Alsina weighted average, Q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy Aczel-Alsina ordered weighted average, and Q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy Aczel-Alsina hybrid weighted average operators. Our research also involved a detailed analysis of the effects of two crucial parameters: λ, associated with Aczel-Alsina aggregation operators, and N, related to Q-rung orthopair hesitant fuzzy sets. These parameter variations were shown to have a profound impact on the ranking of alternatives, as visually depicted in the paper. Furthermore, we delved into the realm of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), a prominent and emerging network technology. Our paper comprehensively explored how our proposed model could be applied in the context of WSNs, particularly in the context of selecting the optimal gateway node, which holds significant importance for companies operating in this domain. In conclusion, we wrapped up the paper with the authors' suggestions and a comprehensive summary of our findings.

A Brief Review on Flexible Electronics for IoT: Solutions for Sustainability and New Perspectives for Designers

The Internet of Things (IoT) is gaining more and more popularity and it is establishing itself in all areas, from industry to everyday life. Given its pervasiveness and considering the problems that afflict today's world, that must be carefully monitored and addressed to guarantee a future for the new generations, the sustainability of technological solutions must be a focal point in the activities of researchers in the field. Many of these solutions are based on flexible, printed or wearable electronics. The choice of materials therefore becomes fundamental, just as it is crucial to provide the necessary power supply in a green way. In this paper we want to analyze the state of the art of flexible electronics for the IoT, paying particular attention to the issue of sustainability. Furthermore, considerations will be made on how the skills required for the designers of such flexible circuits, the features required to the new design tools and the characterization of electronic circuits are changing.
