    Design of an intelligent refrigeration management system using artificial intelligence and Internet of Things (IoT) technology is presented in this paper. This system collects the real-time temperature inside the refrigeration implement, record the information of products and enhance function of refrigerators through the application of Internet of Things technology to facilitate people in managing their refrigerated and frozen groceries smartly. The proposed system is divided into two parts, On-board sub-system and Internet based sub-system. An Arduino Leonardo board is used in onboard sub-system to control other components including low power machine vision OpenMV module, temperature & Humidity sensor, and GY-302 light intensity sensor. OpenMV camera module is used for recognizing types of food, reading barcodes and OCR (optical character recognition) through convolution neural network (CNN) algorithm and tesseract-ocr. The food type identification model is trained by the deep learning framework Caffe. GY-302 light intensity sensor works as a switch of camera module. DHT11 sensor is used to monitor the environmental information inside the freezer. The internet based sub-system works on the things network. It saves the information and uploads it from onboard sub-system and works as an interface to food suppliers. The system demonstrates that the combination of existing everyday utility systems and latest Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies could help develop smarter applications and devices

    Introduction: In light of new technologies, the health area faces new scenarios that are transforming the world. One of these is the mobile health that has gone from being a utopia to a reality. To get to know the areas of electronic health and mobile health, it is essential to understand the background in which these advances are developed. This context is framed in the Internet, cyberculture and collective intelligence which are built on the basis of the complexity of action and human interaction. Objective: To analyze the transcendence of key concepts to understand the underlying of mobile health. Materials and methods: A documentary review of physical texts and electronic databases was made. Results: The information was structured in three categories: the first one was culture, cyberspace and collective intelligence; the second one was action, interaction and the Internet, and the last one was mobile health and apps. Conclusions: For the current Society of information and knowledge, cutting-edge areas such as the Internet and mobile devices are more than a technological trend. They have become axes of innovation and construction of the future. Technology offers fascinating possibilities; however, it is important to find a deeper sense of scientific developments that can change the world as mobile health

    Our paper critically addresses the involvement and the role of civil society entities in new participatory forms of governance, using the Internet governance (IG) debate as a case study. The Internet is first and foremost a global public space potentially available to everyone for the pursuit of the most heterogeneous interests. As this global space becomes crucial in everyday life and consequences of interests pursuit within it capillary innerve the offline dimension, new forms of governance are required to ensure that all stakeholders are represented and actively involved in the management and development of what can be conceptualized as a common pool resource (CPR). The commons of the Internet space and its service as a CPR necessitate the involvement of various competencies that are dispersed in intelligence networks to which private sector and civil society necessary belong. In particular, we examine the meaning and the potential for the inclusion of civil society entities in this debate in relation to the achievement of a universal (and not only global) Internet and the consolidation of a humanized conception of IG. To this end, we propose an analytical division of IG space in four sub-sectors (social commons; information and service commons; price commons; infrastructure commons) and we argue that civil society groups participation should be contextualized and actions modulated following this dissection of competence and eligibility spheres. Furthermore, the effort to achieve a democratic internet governance translates into a double challenge for civil society groups: on the one hand, occasions of direct influence must be fully exploited modulating actions in a way that overcomes the inherent heterogeneity characterizing public interests entities; on the other, a humanized vision has to be built up and consolidated in the IG field in order to provide a set of benchmarks dynamically interacting with market and traditional policy making logics. Finally, we will also explore the effect that the construction and the consolidation of a humanized perspective on IG will have in the translation of this domain from a mostly technical matter into a seed in an emerging field of contention built around information and communication issues.internet governance, common pool resource, civil society political participation, humanized conception of internet governance
