The research will discuss the topic of computer software, more specifically the development of applications using offline and online software. The paper will select two sample software as its main topics of discussion, namely Android Studio and MIT's Application Inventor. The paper will also discuss how these applications developing software are used, and how one can optimize his/her experience creating apps with the given software. MIT Application Inventor was chosen because of its user-friendly interface which allows the user to focus on learning the logic of Java. Android Studio is a practical application development program to learn because of the ubiquity of Android operating systems on mobile devices.

Load forecasting remains as an important activity for the power systems industry, being a critical ystem. With the increasing amount of implemented microgrids across the Philippines, there is merit in investigating localized load forecasting schemes for use in assigning the dispatch of the microgrid's resource at any given time. This study reviews the use of an artificial neural network (ANN) as a next-hour load forecasting method in the Philippine setting.

The Internet of Things, commonly known as IOT, is an ever-evolving technology which gives solutions that makes each aspect of everyday human life easier. Creating a smart waste management is one implementation that improves the sanitation and collection of waste. This paper aims in developing a waste management system that is cost-efficient and providing a mobile application to monitor and track the waste level. By making use of inexpensive sensors, microprocessors, the group was able to create a cheaper waste management system. Using firebase database and android studio, the group was able to create a mobile application that provide a graphical user interface (GUI) which serves as a visual presentation of the waste level as well as provide a notification when the waste reaches a certain amount of level. The main advantage of the prototype is its deployment since building it is not expensive and therefore able to be mass produced at a low cost.
