In this paper, we propose the development of a multiple IoT device controller using Amazon Web Services (AWS), ESP32, and C# programming language. The proposed system will allow users to control and monitor multiple IoT devices simultaneously through a centralized platform. The ESP32, a low-cost wifi module, will interface with the IoT devices and transmit data to the AWS IoT Core. The C# programming language will be used to develop the user interface and handle user requests. The proposed multiple IoT device controller using AWS, ESP32, and C# programming language is expected to provide a practical solution for managing and controlling multiple IoT devices, improving user experience, and advancing IoT technology. The code used in this paper is ready to download for continuing the research work.\u0000Design/Methodology/Approach: The proposed system uses AWS IoT Core to manage the devices and their data. The ESP32 module connects to the IoT devices and sends/receives data to/from AWS IoT Core. The device controller application is developed using C# programming language to control the IoT devices. AWS IoT Core manages IoT devices and their data. The IoT devices are registered with AWS IoT Core, and their unique identifiers are stored in the AWS IoT Core registry. The ESP32 module is programmed to connect to the wifi network using the wifi module. This enables the module to access the internet and connect to AWS IoT Core. \u0000Findings/Result: We developed a multiple-device controller using AWS IoT and ESP32 modules here. We created a single-channel IoT in AWS and broadcast it to all devices. Every message consists device id. All devices will receive the message but are responsible only for a specific device. For multicast messages, the response is by multiple devices. The c# application is the master; all ESP32 devices are clients. \u0000Originality/Value: Most net documents are dedicated to the IoT device creation procedure. Here we demonstrate the complete example, i.e., how to create IoT Devices in the AWS server, the node devices, and control from the C# application.

Among the various renewable energy sources, the most popular is solar energy which can be easily installed. This type of renewable energy is more popular today. The performance of the solar energy system is affected by the availability of sunlight, the battery backup, and the load. Thus, the efficiency of the solar energy system depends on the above factors. It is very important that every solar energy system needs a charge controller to increase the efficiency of the total system. The solar charge controller has to control the charge stored in the battery backup, load, and switching concepts. A new model of the solar charge controller by the name smart switch is suggested which could improve the efficiency of solar energy by taking smart decisions in charging the battery backup, supplying the solar energy to the load when the battery is getting full, and then managing the energy storage in the battery backup, etc. \u0000Design/Methodology/Approach: Developing a conceptual theoretical model by the name smart switch and studying the performance of the same by taking the values in different time intervals. Then analysis of the model is done using the ABCD framework.\u0000Findings/Results: The performance of the model is studied by considering the values at various time intervals and the observations are noted in the tabular format.
