Three variants of double-layer plush knitwear with different structures are described. These developments improve shape stability, reduce elongation, enhance thermal protection properties, and expand the range of knitwear applications. The advantages of the new variants include increased durability, improved quality, and an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Since cloud computing is changing so rapidly, maintaining strong security is now a major issue for companies everywhere. Massive volumes of mixed data are constantly created in cloud environments at every layer, involving virtual machines, containers, storage, identity management and application activities. It is usually not possible for traditional security systems and old monitoring tools to manage vast and changing data flow in real time. Con- ventional methods fail to discover advanced persistent threats, attacks by team members and new vulnerabilities because they do not easily adjust to changing situations. To fix the urgent problem of weak security in cloud sys- tems, this research introduces an AI-powered big data analytics system. The aim is to use artificial intelligence and big data technologies to improve spot- ting threats, marking unusual incidents and reducing risks as they happen. Machine learning and deep learning are used within the system which makes use of distributed processing platforms such as Apache Spark, Hadoop and Kafka. Together, these pieces ensure that a lot of log data and telemetry from hybrid and multi-cloud setups are ingested, worked on and analyzed quickly and efficiently. The proposed solution uses Isolation Forests, Ran- dom Forests, Autoencoders and LSTM networks to spot abnormal activity and risks. They can recognize unusual patterns in network activity, website logs and API usage to find out about possible attacks. It also makes use of natural language processing to study unstructured log data for threats and compares these to the ones listed in external threat intelligence. The archi- tecture is built with a layer using Kafka and Logstash to get data ingested, another using Spark and HDFS for processing and a third for real-time threat analysis and prediction with AI. Information about threats is presented vi- sually in dashboards with the help of Grafana and Kibana, so analysts can easily respond to any threats. Risks are scored with a mechanism that focuses on the worst incidents and those expected to have the biggest impact. Bench- mark datasets such as CICIDS 2017 and UNSW-NB15 are used, along with anonymized real-world activity logs from the cloud, to assess the suggested solution’s robustness. The data suggests that using this technology is more effective and faster than using traditional security approaches. This study has resulted in an AI-based security framework that can handle large enter- prise loads, adaptive security models and affordable implementation paths for the cloud. Thanks to this work, cloud security can now focus on ad- vancing to automating early detection, providing continuous monitoring and implementing automatic steps when needed. Ultimately, the use of AI and big data analytics changes how cloud security functions. This research en- ables systems to detect threats and rate risks in real time, helping to improve the security of today’s cloud networks.

Software engineers working on scaling Flutter applications often encounter initially clean and manageable codebases that gradually evolve into highly complex and difficult-to-maintain software systems. This paper investigates the applicability of microfrontend principles—commonly employed in modern web engineering—to address architectural scalability, maintainability, and modularization challenges in Flutter-based systems.

Traditional single-codebase Flutter apps are great in the early stages of development. However, as teams and features expand, so do the associated headaches. We have applied these techniques in practice and observed significant improvements in architectural scalability and maintainability.

Through empirical implementation and applied research, it has been demonstrated that modular Flutter architectures enable engineering teams to mitigate collaboration inefficiencies, resolve dependency management complexities, and establish sustainable software development workflows. This paper is grounded not only in theory but also in practical design patterns and implementation frameworks for handling cross-module state management, securing boundaries between components, and setting up CI/CD pipelines that work with modular architecture. Empirical observations from production environments have demonstrated quantifiable improvements in build times, developer productivity, and long-term maintainability.

This article considers the issue of systematic errors in predictive machine-learning models generating disparate outcomes for different social groups and proposes a holistic approach to its mitigation. The risks and increasing legal requirements, along with corporate commitments to ethical AIs, drive the relevance of this study. The work herewith attempts to develop a bias-source taxonomy at data collection and annotation, proxy-feature selection, model training, and deployment stages; also, it tries to compare pre-, in-, and post-processing methods' effectiveness on representative datasets measured by demographic parity, equalized error rates, and disparate impact. This article is unprecedented in undertaking a two-level approach: first, a systematic review of regulatory definitions (NIST, IBM) and case studies (COMPAS, healthcare-service prediction, face recognition) that identified key bias factors from sample imbalance to feedback loops; second, an empirical comparison of Reweighing, adversarial debiasing, threshold post-processing techniques alongside flexible multi-objective strategies—YODO (via AI Fairness 360 and Fairlearn libraries)—considering acceptable accuracy losses. The root source of unfairness remains data bias; hence, pre-processing must be undertaken (rebalancing, synthetic oversampling), while in- and post-processing can essentially harmonize group metrics at some cost in accuracy reduction Furthermore, without continuous online monitoring and documentation (datasheets, model cards), the balanced model risks losing fairness due to dynamic feedback effects. Bringing together technical fixes with rules and making the audit process official ensures the ability to copy and openness, which is key for long-term faith in AI systems. This article will help machine-learning builders, AI-responsibility experts, and checkers find ways to find, gauge, and lessen algorithmic bias in live models.
