2024-07-09T17:54:05+00:00

In an age notable by growing digitization and relatedness, protecting critical infrastructure and smart cities against cyber threats is a biggest obstacle. This abstract examines the combination of Behavioural Analytics (BA) and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) as a active and best plan to boost cybersecurity defences. Behavioural Analytics uses machine learning algorithms and statistical models to notice usual entities behaviour patterns inside networks, empowering the identification of anomalies that indicate possible security infringements. This approach is improved through modern techniques that includes Statistical Anomaly Detection, which measures divergence and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks, skilled at grabbing temporal dependencies in data flow of network pursuit. Cross-Event Correlation methodologies and approaches improve the abilities of IDS by finding similarity between disparate events, giving a broad aspect of possible threats across inter related systems. Entity Behaviour Analysis (EBA) enhance these works by building thorough behaviour profiles and allocating risk scores based on divergence, improving targeted response plans. Network-Based IDS (NIDS) lengthen defence by observing whole networks for unusual activities, while Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) devices gives findings into progressing threats, enabling defensive security scales. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) plays a part in removing complicated attribute from network data, improving anomaly detection. The results shows enhancements in threat detection accuracy, with a drop in false positives by 30% and an rise in anomaly detection precision to 95%. The Sensor Data (Units) changes from 80 to 90 units over monitored time periods.

Using a Fuzzy Approach as an Assessment Method to Extend the Lifespan of Wireless Sensor Networks using the LEACH Protocol

2024-03-12T09:05:53+00:00

Wireless sensor network is the term used to describe a network where network nodes are wirelessly configured to collect data from the real world. Node sensors depend on finite energy sources, such as batteries, because of the wireless configuration they have. If the battery-operated sensor of the node is not charged, it will be unable to carry out its intended function. If a specific amount of nodes fail, the network will cease to function. Several energy-efficient protocols were developed for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), including the LEACH Protocol. The LEACH protocol demonstrates a single cluster-based protocol by dividing available sensor nodes into sets and interacting with each set individually. The shape of an energy can be altered by compressing or expanding it, based on the cluster's configuration. We are comparing the network lifespans of three distinct versions of the LEACH protocol that utilize fuzzy techniques for cluster selection with the lifespan of WSNs generated by a previous version of the protocol.

electric vehicle (EV) transactions, enabling electricity trading to be carried out in
a decentralized, transparent, and secure manner. . This paper will explain the use of
blockchain in this field and how it can handle the trade of transmitted and received
energy between electric vehicles. The advantages of using blockchain with electric

2024-07-23T08:59:49+00:00

The article presents a comprehensive analysis of mapping the characteristics of Web services to queueing theory models, specifically the M/M/1 queueing model. The authors aim to establish a theoretical foundation for modeling the performance of Web services and deriving response time formulae. The key points covered in the article are as follows: 1. Analyzing the characteristics of Web services: The article examines the six fundamental characteristics of queueing systems, including arrival patterns, service patterns, queue discipline, system capacity, and the number of servers, and maps them to the Web service environment. 2. Representation using Kendall's notation: The Web service characteristics are represented using Kendall's notation, resulting in the M/M/1/∞/FCFS model, where M denotes exponential distributions for arrival and service patterns, 1 represents a single server, ∞ represents infinite system capacity, and FCFS represents the first-come, first-served queue discipline. 3. Derivation of response time formulae: The article provides a detailed derivation of the response time formulae for the M/M/1 model using stochastic processes, Markov chains, and the birth-death process. The derivation incorporates steady-state conditions and results in a formula that calculates the probability of completing a request within a user-specified response time. 4. Practical applications: The derived response time formula can be used by service providers to determine the probability of completing user requests within specified Service Level Agreements (SLAs). By setting a threshold value (filter value), the service provider can select requests with a higher probability of completion for further processing. Overall, the article contributes to the understanding of Web service performance modeling by establishing a theoretical foundation based on queueing theory. The mapping of Web service characteristics to the M/M/1 model and the derivation of response time formulae provide valuable insights for service providers to analyze and optimize the performance of their Web services while adhering to SLAs

Evaluation of OFDM system in terms of PAPR and BER using PAPR Reduction Techniques : Windowing and Clipping

2024-01-14T08:01:33+00:00

The issue of transferring signals in a non-intrusive and efficient manner is highly intriguing. Consequently, the utilisation of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) transmission technology is employed due to its enhanced resilience against multipath fading and its ability to achieve better efficiency compared to alternative wireless communication methods. Although the PAPR issue offers certain benefits, it poses undesirable consequences for OFDM, leading to a significant decrease in data transmission rate. Consequently, the mitigation of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) issues leads to an improvement in the quality of service. The reduction of PAPR can be achieved by the implementation of clipping and windowing techniques. These approaches arrange the signal into discrete levels of similar magnitude and apply clipping to minimise the bit error rate (BER), resulting in a drop in PAPR. The proposed approach is implemented using the MATLAB software.

Table-driven routing protocols, also known as proactive routing protocols, mandate that every node on the network keep up-to-date routing data. To maintain consistent routing information for network nodes, these protocols propagate frequent updates to the routing table throughout the network, necessitating changes to the network topology. There's a lot of overhead from these upgrades. The suggested FRTA algorithm lowers node data loss rates and increases network energy efficiency.
