Development and Performance Evaluation of a Connected Vehicle Application Development Platform (CVDeP)
Connected vehicle (CV) application developers need a development platform to build,
test and debug real-world CV applications, such as safety, mobility, and environmental
applications, in edge-centric cyber-physical systems. Our study objective is to develop
and evaluate a scalable and secure CV application development platform (CVDeP)
that enables application developers to build, test and debug CV applications in realtime.
CVDeP ensures that the functional requirements of the CV applications meet the
corresponding requirements imposed by the specific applications. We evaluated the
efficacy of CVDeP using two CV applications (one safety and one mobility application)
and validated them through a field experiment at the Clemson University Connected
Vehicle Testbed (CU-CVT). Analyses prove the efficacy of CVDeP, which satisfies the
functional requirements (i.e., latency and throughput) of a CV application while
maintaining scalability and security of the platform and applications
The Road Ahead for Networking: A Survey on ICN-IP Coexistence Solutions
In recent years, the current Internet has experienced an unexpected paradigm
shift in the usage model, which has pushed researchers towards the design of
the Information-Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm as a possible replacement of
the existing architecture. Even though both Academia and Industry have
investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of ICN, achieving the complete
replacement of the Internet Protocol (IP) is a challenging task.
Some research groups have already addressed the coexistence by designing
their own architectures, but none of those is the final solution to move
towards the future Internet considering the unaltered state of the networking.
To design such architecture, the research community needs now a comprehensive
overview of the existing solutions that have so far addressed the coexistence.
The purpose of this paper is to reach this goal by providing the first
comprehensive survey and classification of the coexistence architectures
according to their features (i.e., deployment approach, deployment scenarios,
addressed coexistence requirements and architecture or technology used) and
evaluation parameters (i.e., challenges emerging during the deployment and the
runtime behaviour of an architecture). We believe that this paper will finally
fill the gap required for moving towards the design of the final coexistence
architecture.Comment: 23 pages, 16 figures, 3 table
Data centric trust evaluation and prediction framework for IOT
© 2017 ITU. Application of trust principals in internet of things (IoT) has allowed to provide more trustworthy services among the corresponding stakeholders. The most common method of assessing trust in IoT applications is to estimate trust level of the end entities (entity-centric) relative to the trustor. In these systems, trust level of the data is assumed to be the same as the trust level of the data source. However, most of the IoT based systems are data centric and operate in dynamic environments, which need immediate actions without waiting for a trust report from end entities. We address this challenge by extending our previous proposals on trust establishment for entities based on their reputation, experience and knowledge, to trust estimation of data items [1-3]. First, we present a hybrid trust framework for evaluating both data trust and entity trust, which will be enhanced as a standardization for future data driven society. The modules including data trust metric extraction, data trust aggregation, evaluation and prediction are elaborated inside the proposed framework. Finally, a possible design model is described to implement the proposed ideas
Performance Evaluation of Caching Policies in NDN - an ICN Architecture
Information Centric Networking (ICN) advocates the philosophy of accessing
the content independent of its location. Owing to this location independence in
ICN, the routers en-route can be enabled to cache the content to serve the
future requests for the same content locally. Several ICN architectures have
been proposed in the literature along with various caching algorithms for
caching and cache replacement at the routers en-route. The aim of this paper is
to critically evaluate various caching policies using Named Data Networking
(NDN), an ICN architecture proposed in literature. We have presented the
performance comparison of different caching policies naming First In First Out
(FIFO), Least Recently Used (LRU), and Universal Caching (UC) in two network
models; Watts-Strogatz (WS) model (suitable for dense short link networks such
as sensor networks) and Sprint topology (better suited for large Internet
Service Provider (ISP) networks) using ndnSIM, an ns3 based discrete event
simulator for NDN architecture. Our results indicate that UC outperforms other
caching policies such as LRU and FIFO and makes UC a better alternative for
both sensor networks and ISP networks
HoPP: Robust and Resilient Publish-Subscribe for an Information-Centric Internet of Things
This paper revisits NDN deployment in the IoT with a special focus on the
interaction of sensors and actuators. Such scenarios require high
responsiveness and limited control state at the constrained nodes. We argue
that the NDN request-response pattern which prevents data push is vital for IoT
networks. We contribute HoP-and-Pull (HoPP), a robust publish-subscribe scheme
for typical IoT scenarios that targets IoT networks consisting of hundreds of
resource constrained devices at intermittent connectivity. Our approach limits
the FIB tables to a minimum and naturally supports mobility, temporary network
partitioning, data aggregation and near real-time reactivity. We experimentally
evaluate the protocol in a real-world deployment using the IoT-Lab testbed with
varying numbers of constrained devices, each wirelessly interconnected via IEEE
802.15.4 LowPANs. Implementations are built on CCN-lite with RIOT and support
experiments using various single- and multi-hop scenarios
Node-Centric Detection of Overlapping Communities in Social Networks
We present NECTAR, a community detection algorithm that generalizes Louvain
method's local search heuristic for overlapping community structures. NECTAR
chooses dynamically which objective function to optimize based on the network
on which it is invoked. Our experimental evaluation on both synthetic benchmark
graphs and real-world networks, based on ground-truth communities, shows that
NECTAR provides excellent results as compared with state of the art community
detection algorithms
