Utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to facilitate wireless communication has emerged as a viable and promising strategy to enhance current and prospective wireless systems. This approach offers many advantages by establishing line-of-sight conn...
The Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) utilize their connectivity to enable solutions supporting a spectrum of industries in different and volatile environments. To effectively enhance the security and quality of the service...
While a robust and reliable communication network for monitoring the mining environment in a timely manner to take care of people, the planet Earth and profits is key, the mining environment is very challenging in terms of achieving reliable wireless...
To enhance the level of autonomy in driving, it is crucial to ensure optimal execution of critical maneuvers in all situations. However, numerous accidents involving autonomous vehicles (AVs) developed by major automobile manufacturers in recent year...
In the rapidly evolving landscape of next-generation 6G systems, the integration of AI functions to orchestrate network resources and meet stringent user requirements is a key focus. Distributed Learning (DL), a promising set of techniques that shape...
This article presents a secure framework for remote healthcare monitoring in the context of home isolation, thereby addressing the concerns related to untrustworthy client connections to a hospital information system (HIS) within a secure network. Ou...
Untrusted servers are servers or storage entities lacking complete trust from the data owner or users. This characterization implies that the server hosting encrypted data may not enjoy full trust from data owners or users, stemming from apprehension...
There is an urgent need to introduce security-by-design in networks [...]
Fog–cloud-based hierarchical task-scheduling methods are embracing significant challenges to support e-Health applications due to the large number of users, high task diversity, and harsher service-level requirements. Addressing the challenges...
We consider the problem of meeting deadline constraints in wireless communication networks. Fulfilling deadlines depends heavily on the routing algorithm used. We study this dependence generically for a broad class of routing algorithms. For analyzin...
In this article, a tunable RF sensor is presented for the measurement of dielectric materials (liquids and solids) based on a metamaterial resonator. The proposed novel configuration sensor has a microstrip line-loaded metamaterial resonator with tun...
This paper presents an innovative incentive model that utilizes graph and game theories to address the issue of node incentives in decentralized blockchain networks such as EVM blockchains. The lack of incentives for nodes within EVM networks gives r...
feta cheese is a Greek protected designation of origin (PDO) product that is produced in three main phases: milk collection, cheese preparation and maturation, and product packaging. Each phase must be aligned with quantitative rules, stemming from t...
A wide range of applications, including sports and healthcare, use human activity recognition (HAR). The Internet of Things (IoT), using cloud systems, offers enormous resources but produces high delays and huge amounts of traffic. This study propose...
We analyse the output stream from a packet buffer governed by the policy that incoming packets are dropped with a probability related to the buffer occupancy. The results include formulas for the number of packets departing the buffer in a specific t...
LoRaWANs play a critical role in various applications such as smart farming, industrial IoT, and smart cities. The strategic placement of gateways significantly influences network performance optimization. This study presents a comprehensive analysis...
Accurate localization holds paramount importance across many applications within the context of smart cities, particularly in vehicular communication systems, the Internet of Things, and Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) technologies. Nonet...
The approach of federated learning (FL) addresses significant challenges, including access rights, privacy, security, and the availability of diverse data. However, edge devices produce and collect data in a non-independent and identically distribute...
