Wireless sensor networks are usually left unattended and serve hostile environment, therefore can easily be compromised. With compromised nodes an attacker can conduct several inside and outside attacks. Node replication attack is one of them which can cause severe damage to wireless sensor network if left undetected. This paper presents fuzzy based simulation framework for detection and revocation of compromised nodes in wireless sensor network. Our proposed scheme uses PDR statistics and neighbor reports to determine the probability of a cluster being compromised. Nodes in compromised cluster are then revoked and software attestation is performed.Simulation is carried out on MATLAB 2010a and performance of proposed scheme is compared with conventional algorithms on the basis of communication and storage overhead. Simulation results show that proposed scheme require less communication and storage overhead than conventional algorithms.

In this manuscript, a wavelet-based blind watermarking scheme has been proposed as a means to provide protection against false matching of a possibly tampered fingerprint by embedding a binary name label of the fingerprint owner in the fingerprint itself. Embedding watermarks in the detail regions allow us to increase the robustness of our watermark, at little to no additional impact on image quality. It has been experimentally shown that when a binary watermark is embedded into detail coefficients of an indexed fingerprint image in a spread spectrum fashion, the perceptual invisibility and robustness have anticlinal response to change in amplification factor “K” and smaller watermarks have better transparency than the larger ones. The DWT-based technique has been found to give better robustness against noises, geometrical distortions, filtering and JPEG compression attack than other frequency domain watermarking techniques.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v2i4.505

Cloud-based research collaboration platforms render scalable, secure and inventive environments that enabled academic and scientific researchers to share research data, applications and provide access to high- performance computing resources. Dynamic allocation of resources according to the unpredictable needs of applications used by researchers is a key challenge in collaborative research environments. We propose the design of Cloud Container based Collaborative Research (CCCORE) framework to address dynamic resource provisioning according to the variable workload of compute and data-intensive applications or analysis tools used by researchers. Our proposed approach relies on–demand, customized containerization and comprehensive assessment of resource requirements to achieve optimal resource allocation in a dynamic collaborative research environment. We propose algorithms for dynamic resource allocation problem in a collaborative research environment, which aim to minimize finish time, improve throughput and achieve optimal resource utilization by employing the underutilized residual resources.

The proposed scheme has considered a three-phase four-wire system, which experienced sag and swell in source voltage for a certain period while feeding an unbalanced and variable non-linear load. The load has unequal resistive and reactive elements in the three phases, forming the unbalanced component. A three-phase silicon controlled rectifier converter with adjustable firing angle connected to the load has formed the variable non-linear component. This has been considered, so as to simulate the unbalanced and variable non-linear nature of loads in real-time power system. The trends in the total harmonic distortion variation were obtained for the proposed system under power factor correction and voltage regulation mode operation when the load-side converter firing angles of 30°, 60° and 90° were considered using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. Three pulse-width-modulation methods, namely, sinusoidal pulse-width-modulation, space vector modulation and hysteresis pulse-width-modulation have been used to generate pulses for the voltage source converter of the shunt active filter based on the reference currents generated using synchronous reference frame theory. It has been demonstrated in the proposed paper that power factor correction, voltage regulation, better harmonic reduction and hence load compensation are obtained simultaneously by using two SAFs.

A dynamic temporary network is created through wireless mobile nodes without the need for considerable infrastructure as well as a central manager. In a mobile ad hoc network, routing protocols allow a mobile for transmission and receiving packets. In the last decade, many variants have come up for the AODV. A minimum number of hop counts are chosen for enhancing routing protocols to include additional factors that can have an impact on path selections. As the distance between each node grows, the transmission power also rises accordingly. Hence, this impacts the network’s entire performance and the most important feature is the quality of service. Most of the traditional routing protocols include energy consumption levels of the nodes and various parameters, like residual battery power, consumption of energy per packet and energy needed per transmission. A new technique is proposed in this paper to enhance the routing efficiency by making use of lion optimization algorithm after identifying all possible paths in the network. This technique not only enhances the energy efficiency of each node but also the performance metrics.

Students occasionally find it difficult to learn new programming languages. They often confront unfamiliar programming terms and having difficulty to visualize the processes that happen in computer memory. Weak students find this a burden and end up memorizing the processes without understanding them and their workings. This situation invariably leads students to obtain low grades in their programming subjects. The preliminary investigation of survey was produce in previous work; the results showed that students have experienced ineffective learning, lack of interest towards this course and lack of motivation. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to identify programming learning requirements based on previous work and verified from two perspectives (experts and students). Finally, the result was a group of requirements that should be considered in programming language course

Line plotting is the one of the basic operations in the scan conversion. Bresenham’s line drawing algorithm is an efficient and high popular algorithm utilized for this purpose. This algorithm starts from one end-point of the line to the other end-point by calculating one point at each step. As a result, the calculation time for all the points depends on the length of the line thereby the number of the total points presented. In this paper, we developed an approach to speed up the Bresenham algorithm by partitioning each line into number of segments, find the points belong to those segments and drawing them simultaneously to formulate the main line. As a result, the higher number of segments generated, the faster the points are calculated. By employing 32 cores in the Field Programmable Gate Array, a line of length 992 points is formulated in 0.31μs only. The complete system is implemented using Zybo board that contains the Xilinx Zynq-7000 chip (Z-7010).

There are various applications on signal processing that is highly dependent on preciseness and accuracy of the outcomes in spectrum of signals. Hence, from the past two decades the research community has recognized the benefits, significance, as well as associated problems in carrying out a model for spectral estimation. While in-depth investigation of the existing literatures shows that there are various attempts by the researchers to solve the issues associated with spectral estimations, where majority of teh research work is inclined towards addressing problems associated with Capon and APES techniques of spectral analysis. Therefore, this paper introduces a very simple technique towards resolving the issues of Capon and APES techniques. The outcome of the study was analyzed using correlational factor and power spectral density to find the proposed system offers better spectral estimations compared to existing system.

One of the several failure cases in electric vehicle could be occured at the Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery connectors when loaded by high current. This failure caused by bad contact of connectors so that the contact resistance increase and lead to high power losses, overheating, and it can even cause a fire hazard. This paper presents a thermal distributions of Li-ion battery connectors on different coating material in relation to the value of contact resistance. There were two test samples of modeled: copper connection without coating and copper connection with silver coating. Each sample was loaded by the DC current of 350A, and temperature at the connection was measured until steady state condition reached and simulated by Solidwork software. The results show that the temperature at the inside contact area was higher than the outside contact area of connection that appears caused by higher of the contact resistance. Both measurement and simulation results have same tendency that copper connection with silver coating having lower contact resistance, lower maximum temperature, and lower losses about 32 % than copper connection without coating. Silver coating can be considered as other alternative to prevent overheating, high losses, and failure in Li-ion battery connector.
