Synergizing IoT and AI for Next-Generation Smart Healthcare Systems Deepak Kumar, Sumit Kumar Rana, Parminder Singh, Dinesh Kumar, Navdeep Singh, Ayush Gupta 4th IEEE International Conference on Power Electronics and Iot Applications in Renewable Energy and Its Control Parc 2026, 2026 The partnership between Internet of things (IoT) and Artificial intelligence based advanced innovations have been developing a great effect on the development of healthcare system and health related which are having main focus on patient care, management and diagnosis. IoT based devices givens a facility of instant data gathering from the patient by the helping of various gadgets which are used by the medical system for continuous monitoring of important sign and their health-related conditions of multiple people. When AI is installed in it, the huge volume of information is checked by these devices which are giving us an exact prediction of analysis, modified plan of treatment of multiple patient and dynamic process of decision making in this environment. The technological advancement of healthcare system is providing an AI enabled algorithms to find out and to handle the problem, and forecasting the progression of disease progression accurately and giving the suggestion to the healthcare provides to make sure timely help. Additionally, AI will give an improvement in the medical imaging, utilization of NLP and few of the surgeries which are taking the place under the modified field regarding robotics enabled help, which later on optimizing the delivery of the healthcare system. To display the changes in the healthcare system like patient monitoring, telemedicine and efficiency this kind of advancement is used. Though, few of the problms faced like privacy of data, fear of this should be focussed to make sure the safety and productive utilization of these development. In spite of these hurdles IoT and Artificial intelligence will having the humongous capability of developing a transformation in healthcare with more effective way. Patient centric and productive system, is making the healthcare more capable and scalable for the whole universe population.
Modelling of critical success factors to improve the supply chain resilience for sustainable construction sector Navdeep Singh, Anuj Dixit, Deepankar Kumar Ashish Smart and Sustainable Built Environment, 2025 PurposeThe construction industry has an intricate and constantly evolving supply chain (SC) that includes multiple stakeholders and processes. Enhancing SC resilience (SCR) is essential for promoting industry expansion and competitiveness. The SCR has attracted considerable interest because of the increasing worldwide challenges and threats facing SCs. This study introduces a conceptual framework for recognizing and classifying resilient supply chains’ critical success factors (CSFs) in sustainable construction.Design/methodology/approachThis research employs a sequential mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Initially, an extensive literature review and expert consultations were conducted to identify potential CSFs. The fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method was then applied to classify these CSFs into cause-and-effect groups. To further analyse the interrelationships among the CSFs, interpretive structural modelling (ISM) was utilised, establishing a hierarchical framework. This integrated methodology provides a comprehensive understanding of the CSFs’ relative importance and their driving and dependence power, facilitating targeted interventions for enhancing supply chain resilience in the construction sector.FindingsThis integrated methodology establishes a hierarchical ranking of CSFs across five levels by revealing their causal interrelationships. The study addresses crucial SCR issues and provides actionable insights. The 17 finalized CSFs have 12 causal and five effect factors. The “safety measures and guidelines” have the highest driving potential, whereas the “availability of standardized materials/equipment” and “skilled human resources” depend highly on causal CSFs. The findings will offer a detailed perspective to narrow the gap between unsustainability and sustainability by enhancing the resilience of CSC.Practical implicationsIt offers a pragmatic framework for allocating resources and efforts to enhance the resilience of construction supply chains (CSCs). Policymakers can also use this study to create a more resilient SC for sustainable construction.Originality/valueThis study uniquely identifies and evaluates CSFs for SCR in the construction industry, providing a novel analysis of their driving power, dependence power and ranking. No previous studies have demonstrated such a comprehensive evaluation.
Construction supply chain: a systematic literature review with bibliometric analysis Navdeep Singh, Deepankar Kumar Ashish, Anuj Dixit Journal of Global Operations and Strategic Sourcing, 2024 Purpose This paper aims to evaluate the construction supply chain (CSC) by examining its relationships with various key areas and its development, identifying gaps and outlining potential future research directions that affect the implementation of CSC standards during the timeframe of the United Nations’ “Decade of Action” plans in the past two decades. Design/methodology/approach This paper reports on a systematic literature review with bibliometric analysis that investigates publications from around the world on various aspects of CSC. These aspects include research methodology/data collection technique, inquiry mode, country-specific research, focused areas of study, the research aims and publication periods. Findings The findings of the study reveal that information technology, information sharing, collaboration, performance measurement and CSC configuration have received considerable attention and analysis. However, financial management, supply chain resilience, logistics, vendor managed inventory and rural CSC have been identified as significant areas that require further investigation since limited attention has been given to them in the existing literature. Research limitations/implications CSC is a very dominant topic in the current study, but there are some limitations to it. Scopus and Web of Science databases were used to conduct the study. A future study can therefore consider papers related to other databases. As the focus was specifically dedicated to construction material SC only, the papers associated with SCs of labours and equipment have been eradicated. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first structured and systematic literature review that identifies the issues related to the CSC during the timeframe of the United Nations’ “Decade of Action” plans and proposes future research directions to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of CSC.
