Over the last decade, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology has rapidly developed by integrating AI tools and methodologies. UAVs are used across many fields, including wireless communication, logistics, agriculture, construction, security, and exploration. UAV systems are inherently complex and present numerous challenges. This study conducted a systematic literature review to identify the main challenges and the solutions researchers have proposed. A total of 141 research papers were collected and analyzed, with no restriction on publication year. The review identified 10 main challenges affecting AI in UAVs. These include problems with autonomous navigation, real-time decision-making,... More >

Crowdsourced software development (CSD) has gained increasing popularity in software engineering. However, empirical evidence on its sustainability remains limited. Although previous studies have suggested several sustainability-related factors, their applicability in real industrial CSD environments lacks sufficient validation. Through a systematic literature review (SLR), we identified eleven factors affecting sustainability in CSD. This study empirically validates these factors via a questionnaire survey with practitioners from various crowdsourced software development platforms. The results confirm that all eleven factors identified in the literature are also recognized by practitioners,... More >
