    VPD Monitoring with ESP32 and Flask API for Early Detection of Powdery Mildew in Rose Greenhouses
    (2026)
    Herrera, Vicente-D.
    In this study, a vapor pressure deficit (VPD) monitoring system was developed using an ESP32 and a Flask-based API for the early detection of powdery mildew in rose greenhouses. The research demonstrated that the integration of intelligent systems and real-time analysis of environmental conditions allows for the rapid identification of factors that favor the development of powdery mildew. The SVM model employed achieved high accuracy, with a classification accuracy rate of 96% in identifying conditions conducive to this disease, which is crucial for reducing unnecessary interventions and optimizing resource management in greenhouses. Additionally, the use of an API facilitates the integration of the system with other management platforms, enhancing data accessibility and decision-making. This approach promotes more responsible agricultural practices aligned with environmental sustainability. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.

    Integration of Simulation in Strategic Decision-Making in Dairy Industry
    (2026)
    Herrera, Vicente-D.
    In the context of Industry 4.0, the challenge of improving process efficiency and decision-making in the dairy industry remains critical. This study addresses this problem by evaluating the application of Flexsim simulation software to optimize a dairy plant’s production processes. The main objective of the work is to demonstrate how simulation can enhance production efficiency and reduce material blockages. The methodology involved developing a detailed simulation model of the production line using Flexsim, where multiple scenarios were analyzed to identify bottlenecks and optimize resource allocation. Key results showed an 11.11% improvement in production efficiency and a reduction in blocked material from 36.09 to 10.48%. These findings highlight the ability of Flexsim to support tactical decision-making based on precise and real data. Despite some limitations, such as the complexity of model development, the study concludes that simulation is an essential tool for continuous improvement and maintaining competitiveness in the dairy industry, with potential applications in various industrial sectors. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.
