Title: Leveraging Web Applications for Enhanced Transportation Mobility: Integrating Taxi Booking and Volunteer Ride Services in Fiji

The significant research contribution of this project is the development of a web-based platform that integrates real-time taxi booking, ride-sharing, and volunteer ride services tailored for Fiji. This innovative solution addresses key challenges in Fiji’s urban transportation, such as traffic congestion, vehicle overuse, and lack of affordable transport for low-income individuals. By promoting environmental sustainability, fostering community engagement through volunteer rides, and leveraging secure online payment systems, this platform contributes to enhancing mobility and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in a unique socio-economic context.

Leveraging ChatGPT for Sponsored Ad Detection and Keyword Extraction in YouTube Videos

This study is significant for several reasons. First, it provides a scalable and automated solution for detecting and analyzing advertisements within video content, which is typically labor-intensive when done manually. Second, it offers insights into the relationship between advertisements and video content, which can have profound implications for advertisers seeking to improve targeting strategies and for content creators aiming to optimize sponsored ad placements within their videos. Third, the research lays the groundwork for future advancements in content-based advertising, where the alignment between ad messaging and content themes can be refined using advanced natural language processing (NLP).

Evaluating Lightweight Asymmetric Cryptography for Secure Communication in Internet of Drones

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are being successfully used in a variety of applications, including agriculture, search and rescue operations, surveillance systems, and mission-critical services, thanks to some technological and practical advantages, such as high mobility, the ability to extend wireless coverage areas, or the capacity to reach locations inaccessible to humans. In contrast, attacks against drones, as opposed to traditional cyberattacks, typically happen as a result of serious design flaws and a lack of wireless security protection methods. The study examines lightweight asymmetric cryptographic algorithms for secure Internet of Drones (IoD) communication, addressing cybersecurity
challenges within this emerging technology. It evaluates RSA, ElGamal, DiffieHellman, and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), focusing on their suitability for IoD through comparative analysis on calculation time, memory usage, key size, and security. The goal is to contribute to developing robust, efficient, and secure communication protocols for IoD, promoting growth while mitigating risks. This research is pivotal for the advancement of IoD security, exploring the application of these cryptographic techniques to ensure secure, efficient operations within the IoD framework.
