Spain has one of Europe's most extraordinary biodiverse environments and a significant risk of fires in its forests. At the same time, rural areas are affected by several challenges, such as desertification, population decrease, and loss of income. Fortunately, some green sparks arise on the horizon. Among them, we use critical enabling technologies for fire prevention and extinction, renewable energy, and resilience solutions by adopting a system of systems approach given by the systems engineering frameworks. We analyse recent Research and Development (R&D) projects focused on fire prevention to detect (1) the key enabling technologies used and (2) engineering practices. A motivational case is presented, which evaluates the potential interest of the mineral water industry sector in applied R&D with key enabling technologies, including the replicability potential and the replicability potential for using the R&D results. After that, the authors initialize an innovative R-ISSUES model to promote early interoperability between energy and environment systems engineering towards the shared mission of designing digital and rural jobs to preserve our biosphere. The model is used to answer specific research questions and detect gaps or potential improvements for the model itself by using the recent scientific literature.

In recent years, the market has seen a growing demand for healthy and convenient food options, such as fruit and cereal bars, driven by shifts in eating habits. These changes are primarily attributed to time constraints in meal preparation and the need for ready-to-eat foods. Consequently, this has promoted interest in creating a nutritious, high-quality snack combining oats and mango. This study employed a response surface analysis of extreme vertex mixtures, incorporating constraints and three components: oats, mango peel, and dehydrated mango pulp. This resulted in ten different mixtures, each with unique combinations and proportions of the three components. It evaluated the microbiological quality, proximal composition, total phenolic content, tannins, Aw, color, texture, and chemical properties during storage at room temperature. The optimal blend, which demonstrated the best quality characteristics, consisted of 44.38% oats, 5.36% mango peel, and 29.24% mango pulp. This formulation yielded a protein content of 7.1 g, dietary fiber of 20.3 g per 100 g, total phenols of 3.4 mg gallic acid per g, and no pathogenic microorganisms. According to the obtained data, Aw > 0.3, the estimated shelf life could be 12 months at room temperature. Developing a stable oat-mango snack with excellent nutritional, nutraceutical, chemical quality, and microbiological properties is technologically feasible.

The idea of introducing a robot into an Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) environment to provide additional services beyond those provided by the environment itself has been explored in numerous projects. Moreover, new opportunities can arise from this symbiosis, which usually requires both systems to share the knowledge (and not just the data) they capture from the context. Thus, by using knowledge extracted from the raw data captured by the sensors deployed in the environment, the robot can know where the person is and whether he/she should perform some physical exercise, as well as whether he/she should move a chair away to allow the robot to successfully complete a task. This paper describes the design of an Ambient Assisted Living system where an IoT scheme and robot coexist as independent but connected elements, forming a cyber-physical system-of-systems architecture. The IoT environment includes cameras to monitor the person's activity and physical position (lying down, sitting…), as well as non-invasive sensors to monitor the person's heart or breathing rate while lying in bed or sitting in the living room. Although this manuscript focuses on how both systems handle and share the knowledge they possess about the context, a couple of example use cases are included. In the first case, the environment provides the robot with information about the positions of objects in the environment, which allows the robot to augment the metric map it uses to navigate, detecting situations that prevent it from moving to a target. If there is a person nearby, the robot will approach them to ask them to move a chair or open a door. In the second case, even more use is made of the robot's ability to interact with the person. When the IoT system detects that the person has fallen to the ground, it passes this information to the robot so that it can go to the person, talk to them, and ask for external help if necessary.
