Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) have gained increasing attention for civil and defense applications, but underwater environments present major challenges such as dynamic channels, localization difficulties, high delays, limited bandwidth, energy constraints, interference, and strong noise. This work presents a comprehensive survey of UWSN protocols across the physical, MAC, and routing layers, including existing network stacks, underwater modems, and security threats, with emphasis on the Smart Adaptive Long- and Short-range Acoustic (SALSA) stack.

As large language models (LLMs) become more capable, the challenge shifts from prompting individual tasks to building reliable, real-world systems around them. This presentation introduces harness engineering - the practice of designing control layers that transform raw models into structured, dependable AI agents.

A full day of learning, collaboration, and networking for maintenance, reliability and operations professionals focused on rotating equipment – featuring technical sessions, vendor exhibits and peer-to-peer discussion.
