DISTORTION-AWARE CONCURRENT MULTIPATH TRANSFER FOR MOBILE VIDEO STREAMING IN HETEROGENEOUS WIRELESS NETWORKS

ABSTRACT: The massive proliferation of wireless infrastructures with complementary characteristics prompts the bandwidth aggregation for Concurrent Multipath Transfer (CMT) over heterogeneous access networks. Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is the standard transport-layer solution to enable CMT in multihomed communication environments. However, delivering high-quality streaming video with the existing CMT solutions still remains problematic due to […]

Defeating Jamming With the Power of Silence A Game-Theoretic Analysis

Abstract: The timing channel is a logical communication channel in which information is encoded in the timing between events. Recently, the use of the timing channel has been proposed as a countermeasure to reactive jamming attacks performed by an energy- constrained malicious node. In fact, while a jammer is able to disrupt the information contained […]

DATA-DRIVEN COMPOSITION FOR SERVICE-ORIENTED SITUATIONAL WEB APPLICATIONS

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a systematic data-driven approach to assisting situational application development. We first propose a technique to extract useful information from multiple sources to abstract service capabilities with set tags. This supports intuitive expression of user’s desired composition goals by simple queries, without having to know underlying technical details. A planning technique then […]

Data Collection in Multi-Application Sharing Wireless Sensor Networks

Data sharing for data collection among multiple applications is an efficient way to reduce communication cost for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This paper is the first work to introduce the interval data sharing problem which is to investigate how to transmit as less data as possible over the network, and meanwhile the transmitted data satisfies […]

COST-AWARE SECURE ROUTING (CASER) PROTOCOL DESIGN FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

ABSTRACT: Lifetime optimization and security are two conflicting design issues for multi-hop wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with non-replenishable energy resources. In this paper, we first propose a novel secure and efficient Cost-Aware SEcure Routing (CASER) protocol to address these two conflicting issues through two adjustable parameters: energy balance control (EBC) and probabilistic based random walking. […]

CONTENT-BASED IMAGE RETRIEVAL USING ERROR DIFFUSION BLOCK TRUNCATION CODING FEATURES

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new approach to index color images using the features extracted from the error diffusion block truncation coding (EDBTC). The EDBTC produces two color quantizers and bitmap images, which are further, processed using vector quantization (VQ) to generate the image feature descriptor. Herein two features are introduced, namely, color histogram feature […]

AUTHENTICATION HANDOVER AND PRIVACY PROTECTION IN 5G HETNETS USING SOFTWARE-DEFINED NETWORKING

ABSTRACT: Recently, densified small cell deployment with overlay coverage through coexisting heterogeneous networks has emerged as a viable solution for 5G mobile networks. However, this multi-tier architecture along with stringent latency requirements in 5G brings new challenges in security provisioning due to the potential frequent handovers and authentications in 5G small cells and HetNets. In […]

Authenticated Key Exchange Protocols for Parallel Network File Systems

We study the problem of key establishment for secure many-to-many communications. The problem is inspired by the proliferation of large-scale distributed file systems supporting parallel access to multiple storage devices. Our work focuses on the current Internet standard for such file systems, i.e., parallel Network File System (pNFS), which makes use of Kerberos to establish […]

AGGREGATED-PROOF BASED HIERARCHICAL AUTHENTICATION SCHEME FOR THE INTERNET OF THINGS

ABSTRACT: The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming an attractive system paradigm to realize interconnections through the physical, cyber, and social spaces. During the interactions among the ubiquitous things, security issues become noteworthy, and it is significant to establish enhanced solutions for security protection. In this work, we focus on an existing U2IoT architecture (i.e., […]
