The Amalgamation of Wireless Technologies and Machine Learning for Localization: Investigations from NUST’s Information Processing and Transmissions Lab into the Future Wireless Systems

The scale of wireless technologies penetration in our daily lives, primarily triggered by the Internet-of-things (IoT)-based smart cities, is beaconing the possibilities of novel localization and tracking techniques. With the development of 5G networks, the need for GPS free localization for the provision of location-based services is becoming more and more important. The inherent high-power…

Governance Challenges Due To Emerging Technologies

A corollary of Buckminster Fuller’s Knowledge Doubling Curve states that the knowledge created since 1900 exceeds the sum total of knowledge created by mankind since the start of recorded history. The pace at which new knowledge is created, and applied towards the development of technologies, is exhaustive and exceedingly hard to track even by ardent…

Observing Superconductivity in two-dimensional (2D) MXene and its possible application in Super-Spintronics.

Nearly two years ago, the discovery of superconductivity in Nobel prize winner ‘graphene’ developed a new direction for scientific research. Superconductivity in 2D materials attracted much attention to the scientific community owing to the unique features of the effect in 2D materials namely the possibility of anisotropic dependence of superconductivity along two dimensions. In the…
