An overview of the protection of children rights under Islamic law

Islamic law outlines a comprehensive of children’s rights that deserve protection. These are related toin many sources of Islamic law (the Shari’ah) which include the Quran, the Sunnah, Secondary Sources e.g., ‘urf and juristic discourse. Such rights include the right to lineage (nasab), right to care and custody, the right to maintenance, the right to the good name, the right to love and affection and so forth. Children’s rights are also protected based on the general aim of the Shari’ah: (maqasid al-Shari’ah) i.e., securing benefit to all mankind and protect them from any harm. As protection of children’s rights are vital but violated by many nowadays, this paper seeks to study on the protection of children’s rights under Islamic law. It aims at providing a critical overview of overall principles for the protection of children’s rights in Islam based on the Qur’an and Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH). It is hoped that this research will provide a basic understanding on children rights in Islam that require attention and safeguards from all

Intelligent Task Offloading in Fog Computing Based Vehicular Networks

Connected vehicles in vehicular networks will lead to a smart and autonomous transportation system. These vehicles have a large number of applications that require wireless connectivity by using cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X). The infrastructure of C-V2X comprises multiple roadside units (RSUs) that provide direct connectivity with the on-road vehicles. Vehicular traffic applications are mainly categorized into three major groups such as emergency response traffic, traffic management and infotainment traffic. Vehicles have limited processing capabilities and are unable to process all tasks simultaneously. To process these offloaded tasks in a short time, fog servers are placed near the RSUs. However, it is sometimes not possible for the fog computing server to process all offloaded tasks. In this work, a utility function for the RSU to process these offloaded tasks is designed. In addition, a knapsack-based task scheduling algorithm is proposed to optimally process the offloaded tasks. The results show that the proposed scheme helps fog nodes to optimally scrutinize the high-priority offloaded tasks for task execution resulting in more than 98% of emergency tasks beingprocessed by fog computing nodes
