A Survey on the Security and the Evolution of Osmotic and Catalytic Computing for 5G Networks
The 5G networks have the capability to provide high compatibility for the new
applications, industries, and business models. These networks can tremendously
improve the quality of life by enabling various use cases that require high
data-rate, low latency, and continuous connectivity for applications pertaining
to eHealth, automatic vehicles, smart cities, smart grid, and the Internet of
Things (IoT). However, these applications need secure servicing as well as
resource policing for effective network formations. There have been a lot of
studies, which emphasized the security aspects of 5G networks while focusing
only on the adaptability features of these networks. However, there is a gap in
the literature which particularly needs to follow recent computing paradigms as
alternative mechanisms for the enhancement of security. To cover this, a
detailed description of the security for the 5G networks is presented in this
article along with the discussions on the evolution of osmotic and catalytic
computing-based security modules. The taxonomy on the basis of security
requirements is presented, which also includes the comparison of the existing
state-of-the-art solutions. This article also provides a security model,
"CATMOSIS", which idealizes the incorporation of security features on the basis
of catalytic and osmotic computing in the 5G networks. Finally, various
security challenges and open issues are discussed to emphasize the works to
follow in this direction of research.Comment: 34 pages, 7 tables, 7 figures, Published In 5G Enabled Secure

Thirty Years of Machine Learning: The Road to Pareto-Optimal Wireless Networks
Future wireless networks have a substantial potential in terms of supporting
a broad range of complex compelling applications both in military and civilian
fields, where the users are able to enjoy high-rate, low-latency, low-cost and
reliable information services. Achieving this ambitious goal requires new radio
techniques for adaptive learning and intelligent decision making because of the
complex heterogeneous nature of the network structures and wireless services.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have great success in supporting big data
analytics, efficient parameter estimation and interactive decision making.
Hence, in this article, we review the thirty-year history of ML by elaborating
on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and deep
learning. Furthermore, we investigate their employment in the compelling
applications of wireless networks, including heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
cognitive radios (CR), Internet of things (IoT), machine to machine networks
(M2M), and so on. This article aims for assisting the readers in clarifying the
motivation and methodology of the various ML algorithms, so as to invoke them
for hitherto unexplored services as well as scenarios of future wireless
networks.Comment: 46 pages, 22 fig
Mobile Edge Computing
This is an open access book. It offers comprehensive, self-contained knowledge on Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), which is a very promising technology for achieving intelligence in the next-generation wireless communications and computing networks. The book starts with the basic concepts, key techniques and network architectures of MEC. Then, we present the wide applications of MEC, including edge caching, 6G networks, Internet of Vehicles, and UAVs. In the last part, we present new opportunities when MEC meets blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, and distributed machine learning (e.g., federated learning). We also identify the emerging applications of MEC in pandemic, industrial Internet of Things and disaster management. The book allows an easy cross-reference owing to the broad coverage on both the principle and applications of MEC. The book is written for people interested in communications and computer networks at all levels. The primary audience includes senior undergraduates, postgraduates, educators, scientists, researchers, developers, engineers, innovators and research strategists
