Abstract

African continent is ranked second biggest world’s regions populated and having a huge amount of natural resources to be locally transformed or outsourced overseas for this purpose. The traditional telecommunications system helped connect people and enabled them managing business and trading in Africa for long-time; many African countries got embarked early into some process of changing their network and technology systems during the first years of the information age. Over few decades ago, the introduction of the new telecom methods and techniques influenced much African countries’ growth on different perspectives. The situation triggered in people an interest and curiosity. They analyzed the factors supporting such changes, which in the case of this paper is all about the advent and adoption of LTE/4GLTE technologies including its services commercialization in Africa. This articles review attempts to draw up an overview of 4GLTE networks technologies and its internet; it includes the current evolution of telecom’s networks within and even beyond African continent, assisted by 4GLTE expansion. An extended view is provided throughout this article’s development with respect to what could be expected (or is missing) for the sake of this continent’s telecom’s infrastructures enhancement and a better QoS to Africa’s dwellers.

Abstract

The clustering approach is considered as a vital method for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by organizing the sensor nodes into specific clusters. Consequently, saving the energy and prolonging network lifetime which is totally dependent on the sensors battery, that is considered as a major challenge in the WSNs. Classification algorithms such as K-means (KM) and Fuzzy C-means (FCM), which are two of the most used algorithms in literature for this purpose in WSNs. However, according to the nature of random nodes deployment manner, on certain occasions, this situation forces these algorithms to produce unbalanced clusters, which adversely affects the lifetime of the network. Based for our knowledge, there is no study has analyzed the performance of these algorithms in terms clusters construction in WSNs. In this study, we investigate in KM and FCM performance and which of them has better ability to construct balanced clusters, in order to enable the researchers to choose the appropriate algorithm for the purpose of improving network lifespan. In this study, we utilize new parameters to evaluate the performance of clusters formation in multi-scenarios. Simulation result shows that our FCM is more superior than KM by producing balanced clusters with the random distribution manner for sensor nodes.

Abstract

Finding shortest and safest path during emergency situation is critical. In this paper, an indoor navigation during an emergency time is investigated using the combination of Voronoi Diagram and fuzzy number. The challenge in indoor navigation is to analyses the network when the shortest path algorithm does not work as always expected. There are some existing methods to generate the network model. First, this paper will discuss the feasibility and accuracy of each method when it is implemented on building environment. Next, this paper will discuss selected algorithms that determine the selection of the best route during an emergency situation. The algorithm has to make sure that the selected route is the shortest and the safest route to the destination. During a disaster, there are many uncertainties to deal with in determining the shortest and safest route. Fuzzy logic can be hardly called for to deal with these uncertainties. Based on sensor data, this paper will also discuss how to solve shortest path problem using a fuzzy number.

Abstract

The clustering approach is considered as a vital method for many fields suchas machine learning, pattern recognition, image processing, information retrieval, data compression, computer graphics, and others.Similarly, it hasgreat significance in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by organizing thesensor nodes into specific clusters. Consequently, saving energy and prolonging network lifetime, which is totally dependent on the sensor’s battery, that is considered asa major challenge in the WSNs. Fuzzyc-means (FCM) is one of classification algorithm, which is widely used in literature for this purpose in WSNs. However, according to the nature of random nodes deployment manner, on certain occasions, this situation forces this algorithm to produce unbalanced clusters, which adversely affects the lifetime of the network.To overcome this problem, a new clustering method called FCM-CMhas been proposed by improving the FCM algorithm to form balanced clustersfor random nodes deployment. The improvement is conductedby integrating the FCM with a centralized mechanism(CM).The proposed method will be evaluated based on four new parameters. Simulation result shows that our proposed algorithm is more superior to FCM by producing balanced clustersin addition to increasing the balancing of the intra-distances of the clusters, which leads to energy conservation and prolonging network lifespan.

Abstract

Knowledge Extraction Model (KEM) is a system that extracts knowledge through an IoT-based smart waste bin emptying scheduling classification. Classification is a difficult problem and requires an efficient classification method. This research contributes in the form of the KEM system in the classification of scheduling for emptying waste bins with the best performance of the Machine Learning method. The research aims to compare the performance of Machine Learning methods in the form of Decision Tree, Naïve Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine, and Multi-Layer Perceptron, which will be recommended in the KEM system. Performance testing was performed on accuracy, recall, precision, F-Measure, and ROCS curves using the cross-validation method with ten observations. The experimental results show that the Decision Tree performs best for accuracy, recall, precision, and ROCS curve. In contrast, the K-NN method obtains the highest F-measure performance. KEM can be implemented to extract knowledge from data sets created in various other IoT-based systems.

Abstract

Monitoring water media in Guppy fish farming is a major problem that must be solved. monitoring is carried out to obtain a decision whether the media is suitable or not suitable for getting good guppy fish.This study aims to extract knowledge in order to make decisions on the quality of Guppy fish water media through data obtained from the IoT system.The main contribution of this research is the effort to obtain new knowledge from data collected through IoT systems. New knowledge is obtained from water quality parameter data acquired by sensors of temperature, water level and pH. data from the sensor is sent to the Thingspeak cloud application via the microcontroller module. Data from the cloud is extracted into new knowledge in the form of decision-making rules for the quality of Guppy fish water media. To validate the method used, an analysis was performed using a confusion matrix in the rapidminer application. tested for the C 4.5 method and the Naive Bayes methodThe results obtained the same high accuracy of 100 percent. It is possible that this IoT system can be applied in a larger scope, for example monitoring the aquariums of various Guppy fish farming communities in a city, so that real time data on the quality of Guppy fish is obtained within the scope of Smart City.
