Internet of Things (IoT) devices in clustered wireless networks can be compromised by compromising the gateway which they are associated with. In such scenarios, an adversary who has compromised the gateway can affect the network's performance by ...

People have been spending much time on free-weight exercises that can strengthen the muscles, connective tissues and tendons. To decrease the risk of injury and reap the benefit of free-weight exercises, a monitoring system which helps users exercise ...

Platooning is an emerging Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) application that can have a huge impact on road traffic. It allows vehicles to travel in a convoy manner, very close to each other with constant speeds and gaps.

It uses Vehicular Ad hoc ...

Recently, the Vehicular Network (VN) has gained a lot of attention from researchers around the world. By allowing wireless communication, VNs enable information exchanging among vehicles, which in turn let drivers become more aware of their surrounding ...

The work at hand proposes a set of modeling recipes to address the aggressive development time window of current and future wireless communications in cyber-physical systems. These systems pose a significant challenge in meeting Time-to-Market due to ...

Many applications running over low-power and lossy wireless networks and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) rely heavily on a number of all-to-all communication primitives for services such as data aggregation, voting and consensus. Starting with the Chaos ...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a common modulation technique that is being used in many of modern wireless communications and standards due to its excellent spectral efficiency and immunity to multipath interference in fading ...

The Network Simulator version 2, also known as ns-2, is a widely used platform for network and protocol performance evaluation. Over the years it has benefited from numerous studies in improving its simulation fidelity. Nevertheless, this study ...

This paper introduces a service slicing strategy for managing Quality of Service in LTE-based cellular networks by managing resource blocks in the uplink direction based on resource pooling. An algorithm is devised to optimize and allocate resource ...

Gossip-based packet forwarding is used in unstructured networks is to reduce traffic overhead in dense networks and to minimize early gossip termination in sparse networks. Unlike in flooding, where packets are forwarded to all the neighbors, in Gossip-...

In the last few years, the Message Queueing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) publish/subscribe protocol emerged as the de facto standard communication protocol for IoT, M2M and wireless sensor networks applications. Such popularity is mainly due to the ...

Data collection in Internet of Things is greatly impaired by the redundant or unwanted reportings provided by sensors deployed in urban area. The service provider/ application is typically unaware of an objects context while collecting its readings. ...

Internet of things (IoT) is envisioned as the interconnection of the Internet with sensing and actuating devices. IoT systems are usually designed to collect massive amounts of data from multiple and possibly conflicting sources. Nevertheless, data must ...

Wireless networks are present everywhere but their management can be tricky since their coverage may contain holes even if the network is fully connected. In this paper we propose an algorithm that can build a communication tree between nodes of a ...

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), each node typically transmits several control and data packets in a contention fashion to the sink. In this work, we mathematically analyze and study three unscheduled transmission schemes for control packets in a ...

The Time-Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) mode, defined by the IEEE 802.15.4e protocol, aims to reduce the effects of narrowband interference and multipath fading on some channels through the frequency hopping method. To work satisfactorily, this method ...

Due to the limited battery capacity, energy is the most crucial constraint for improving the performance of widely adopted Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Hence, conserving energy and improving the energy efficiency are important in designing a ...

The paper describes the management and control (M&C) functions of various network nodes in an end-to-end rate-adaptive video transport system. Mobile user devices download video clips by sharing the underlying network path from an ingress node. At the ...

The ability to transmit high volumes of data over a long distance makes WiFi mesh networks an ideal transmission solution for remote video surveillance. Instead of independently manipulating the node deployment, channel and interface assignment, and ...
