Milestone: Linking SmartHome Truffle Project in Ganache

This post documents a key milestone in our Smart-Home Ethereum project: successfully linking the SmartHome Truffle project to the Ganache workspace.

Ganache Workspace Setup

We used Ganache to create a local Ethereum blockchain for testing:

  • Workspace Name: SMART-HOME-TEST
  • Network ID: 5777
  • RPC Server: http://127.0.0.1:7545
  • Mining Status: AUTOMINING

Linking Truffle Project

The project folder containing truffle-config.js was linked to the Ganache workspace. This allows Ganache to track deployed contracts, transactions, events, and contract state.

Next Steps

After linking, we can:

  1. Deploy the SmartHome contract using truffle migrate --network development.
  2. Observe deployed contracts, transactions, and events directly in Ganache.
  3. Use the Truffle console to interact with the SmartHome contract:
    4. truffle console --network development
let instance = await SmartHome.deployed()
await instance.getStatus()
await instance.setStatus(true)

From DSRC to 5G NR-V2X: The Road Ahead for Connected Vehicles

Modern vehicles are no longer just machines on wheels. Through Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication , they are becoming active participants in intelligent transport systems, enabling safer driving, smoother traffic, and progress toward automation. DSRC: The First Step The earliest V2X technology was Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) , based on IEEE 802.11p. Operating in the 5.9 GHz band , it allowed onboard units (OBUs) in vehicles to exchange safety and infotainment data with roadside units (RSUs) . While DSRC was effective for short-range messaging, it faced limits in coverage, data rate, and quality of service (QoS) . These challenges motivated researchers to explore new solutions. D2D and the Cellular Shift A key breakthrough came with Device-to-Device (D2D) communication , where vehicles exchange information directly without always relying on infrastructure. This reduces latency, eases network congestion, and helps maintain reliability in crow...

🔹 Is Qualitative Data Always Primary Data?

🔹 Is Qualitative Data Always Primary Data? Insights from Stroke Care and IoV Research Understanding stroke care isn’t just about what happens — it’s about why it matters . In our recent research, we use a mix of sensor data , patient feedback , and AI-driven IoV analytics to capture the full story ( Saad, Jamshed, Adedamola, Nauman, & Kim, 2025 ). 📄 Click here to view the full paper 🧠 Primary vs. Secondary Data Primary data → Data you collect yourself (interviews, observations, or IoV sensor readings). Secondary data → Data collected by someone else (published reports, case studies, open datasets). For example, if we interview stroke patients or observe IoV interactions , that’s primary qualitative data . But if we analyze existing case reports or published interviews , that’s secondary . “The last decade has witnessed considerable growth in the development of qualitative research... yet this is an area on which most researchers require some guid...
