Performance Evaluation of routing protocols with and without malicious nodes

Vehicular adhoc networks (VANETs) are made by applying the standards of mobile adhoc networks (MANETs)-the unconstrained making of a remote network of cell phones to the area of vehicles. VANETs were first referenced and presented in 2001 under ”vehicle to-vehicle specially appointed versatile correspondence and systems administration” applications, where networks can be shaped and data can be handed-off among vehicles. It was shown that vehicle-to- vehicle and vehicle-to-road side exchange designs will exist together in VANETs to give street security, route, and other side of the road administrations. VANETs are a vital piece of the intelligent transportation frameworks (ITS) system. At times, VANETs are known as Intelligent Transport Networks. They are perceived as having advanced into a more extensive “Web of vehicles”. Which itself is relied upon to eventually advance into a “Web of self-sufficient vehicles”. The vehicles send some data about street status and traffic. But sometimes the information send from one vehicle to another can be malicious. This malicious information is added by the intruders to cause problem in vehicular network so that accident can occur. In this report, we will analyse the throughput, packet delivery ratio and end to end delay in sending information from vehicle to vehicle when the network is attacked by some malicious nodes.

Lightweight steel systems: Proposal and validation of seismic design rules for second generation of Eurocode 8

The current edition of Eurocode 8 (EN 1998 (CEN (2004))) does not explicitly cover the earthquake-resistant design of the Lightweight steel (LWS) buildings made with cold-formed steel (CFS) frame. Extensive research has been carried out in the past decade on this topic that provides a solid background for an update of the current provisions and the development of a new edition of the code. As part of the revision process of Eurocode 8, several activities are currently under development. Within this framework, this paper presents a set of design rules for the seismic design of LWS buildings based on background studies carried out at the University of Naples “Federico II”. A critical review of the provisions given by international design standards for the seismic design of LWS systems is also presented. The proposed design rules include a set of provisions for achieving the dissipative behaviour of Lateral Force Resisting System (LFRS) and predicting their design strength, together with behaviour factor values and geometrical and mechanical limitations. Different types of LFRS are analysed, namely CFS strap-braced walls and CFS shear walls with steel sheets, wood, or gypsum sheathing. Worked examples are also presented to show the applicability of the proposed design rules on a set of building archetypes. Validation numerical study is performed using both nonlinear static and incremental dynamic analysis approaches. Finally, the collapse performance of the archetypes is assessed following the seismic performance evaluation protocol of FEMA P695.

Escape Path Obstacle-Based Mobility Model (EPOM) for Campus Delay-Tolerant Network

In Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs), humans are the main carriers of mobile devices, signifying that human mobility can be exploited by extracting nodes’ interests, social behavior, and spatiotemporal features for the performance evaluation of DTNs protocols. This paper presents a new mobility model that describes students’ daily activities in a campus environment. Unlike the conventional random walk models, which use a free space environment, our model includes a collision-avoidance technique that generates an escape path upon encountering obstacles of different shapes and sizes that obstruct pedestrian movement. We evaluate the model’s usefulness by comparing the distributions of its synthetic traces with realistic traces in terms of spatial, temporal, and connectivity features of human mobility. Similarly, we analyze the concept of dynamic movement clusters observed on the location-based trajectories of the studied real traces. The model synthetically generates traces with the distribution of the intercluster travel distance, intracluster travel distance, direction of movement, contact duration, intercontact time, and pause time similar to the distribution of real traces.

Security and performance evaluation of master node protocol based reputation blockchain in the bitcoin network

Bitcoin is a digital currency based on a peer-to-peer network to propagate and verify transactions. Bitcoin is gaining wider adoption than any previous crypto-currency. However, the mechanism of peers randomly choosing logical neighbours without any knowledge about the underlying physical topology can cause a delay overhead in information propagation which makes the system vulnerable to double spend attacks. Aiming at alleviating the propagation delay problem, this paper introduces a proximity-aware extension to the current Bitcoin protocol, named Master Node Based Clustering (MNBC). The ultimate purpose of the proposed protocol, which is based on how clusters are formulated and how nodes can define their membership, is to improve the information propagation delay in the Bitcoin network. In the MNBC protocol, physical internet connectivity increases as well as the number of hops between nodes decreases through assigning nodes to be responsible for maintaining clusters based on physical Internet proximity. Furthermore, a reputation-based blockchain protocol is integrated with MNBC protocol in order to securely assign a master node for every cluster. We validate our proposed methods through a set of simulation experiments and the findings show how the proposed methods run and their impact in optimising the transaction propagation delay.

Loading protocols for seismic performance evaluation of buckling-restrained braces in RC frames

The selection of a proper loading protocol for seismic performance evaluation of structural dampers poses quite a challenge at the very first step of quasi-static cyclic tests. Existing loading protocols for buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) are mainly developed on the basis of the seismic responses of BRB-steel frame systems. However, the behavior of a BRB in reinforced concrete frames (RCFs) differs markedly from that in the steel frames. In this study, a set of loading protocols were constructed to provide a reference for seismic performance assessment of BRBs in RCFs. The methodology for the development of loading protocols was illustrated and a series of BRB-RCFs varying in building heights and story shear resisted by BRBs were designed. An extensive analytical investigation of seismic responses of BRBs under far-field, near-fault, and long-duration earthquakes was systematically evaluated and quantified. Based on the rainflow counting method, the control parameters in terms of numbers of cycles, amplitudes, and residual core strains were determined to construct loading sequences. The effectiveness of the proposed loading protocols was discussed and verified through comparisons with existing loading sequences and time-history analysis results of a validated BRB-RCF model. It is indicated that the proposed loading protocols can conservatively reflect the actual seismic damage demands with a reasonable agreement.

Performance Evaluation of Routing Protocols for Opportunistic Networks: An Energy Efficiency Perspective

In most computer networks, a path between a sending node and the destination node is requiredto transfer data. There are instances where such a path for communication may not exist, suchas in space communications, and the standard message routing techniques will not work. OpportunisticNetworks were developed to solve this problem. Infrastructure-less Opportunistic Networks(OppNets) are a type of Delay Tolerant Networks where nodes in the network are responsible forforwarding messages to the destination nodes under the constraints of intermittent connectivity, dynamictopology changes, and non-guarantee of an end-to-end path. Various routing protocols weredeveloped for OppNets; however, these routing protocols are energy-inefficient, and this is a problembecause devices that are used in OppNets are usually battery-powered. In this project, newenergy-efficient routing protocols for OppNets, namely, E FirstContactRouter, E WaveRouter, EFloatingContentRouter and E LifeRouter were developed from their energy-inefficient base routingprotocols, namely FirstContactRouter, WaveRouter, FloatingContentRouter and LifeRouter. Theenergy-efficient routing protocols were compared against their energy-inefficient base protocols andother developed energy-efficient routing protocols, namely E-Prophet, E-Epidemic, E-MaxProp andE-Spray&Wait routing protocols. The energy metrics that we used to do the tests were the numberof dead nodes and the average remaining energy. Simulations were carried out using the OpportunisticNetwork Environment (ONE) simulator and it was discovered that the proposed energy-awarerouting protocols outperform their non-energy-aware counterparts in terms of the above-mentionedperformance metrics.

An Improved Version of the Generalized Laplacian Pyramid Algorithm for Pansharpening

The spatial resolution of multispectral data can be synthetically improved by exploiting the spatial content of a companion panchromatic image. This process, named pansharpening, is widely employed by data providers to augment the quality of images made available for many applications. The huge demand requires the utilization of efficient fusion algorithms that do not require specific training phases, but rather exploit physical considerations to combine the available data. For this reason, classical model-based approaches are still widely used in practice. We created and assessed a method for improving a widespread approach, based on the generalized Laplacian pyramid decomposition, by combining two different cost-effective upgrades: the estimation of the detail-extraction filter from data and the utilization of an improved injection scheme based on multilinear regression. The proposed method was compared with several existing efficient pansharpening algorithms, employing the most credited performance evaluation protocols. The capability of achieving optimal results in very different scenarios was demonstrated by employing data acquired by the IKONOS and WorldView-3 satellites.

Performance evaluation of hierarchical clustering protocols with fuzzy C-means

The longevity of the network and the lack of resources are the main problems within the WSN. Minimizing energy dissipation and optimizing the lifespan of the WSN network are real challenges in the design of WSN routing protocols. Load balanced clustering increases the reliability of the system and enhances coordination between different nodes within the network. WSN is one of the main technologies dedicated to the detection, sensing, and monitoring of physical phenomena of the environment. For illustration, detection, and measurement of vibration, pressure, temperature, and sound. The WSN can be integrated into many domains, like street parking systems, smart roads, and industrial. This paper examines the efficiency of our two proposed clustering algorithms: Fuzzy C-means based hierarchical routing approach for homogeneous WSN (F-LEACH) and fuzzy distributed energy efficient clustering algorithm (F-DEEC) through a detailed comparison of WSN performance parameters such as the instability and stability duration, lifetime of the network, number of cluster heads per round and the number of alive nodes. The fuzzy C-means based on hierarchical routing approach is based on fuzzy C-means and low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) protocol. The fuzzy distributed energy efficient clustering algorithm is based on fuzzy C-means and design of a distributed energy efficient clustering (DEEC) protocol. The technical capability of each protocol is measured according to the studied parameters.

Performance Evaluation of IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks Based on Objective Functions for Media Technology

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has proposed the use of the IPv6 Routing Protocol for the Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL). RPL has been seen to be a major routing protocol related to the Internet of Things (IoT) that could be used for wireless networks with lower power consumption and liable to a higher packet loss. The RPL construct-related network topology uses the Objective Functions (OF) for choosing the route from the source to a destination node, which has been based on constraints and metrics. The IETF designed two OFs for the RPL protocol, i.e., Objective Function Zero (OF0) and Minimum Rank with Hysteresis Objective Function (MRHOF). In this study, the researchers have investigated the RPL performance with the help of the OFs in a medium density. This performance has been judged using different network parameters like Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and Power Consumption (PC). Furthermore, in this study, the number of nodes has been maintained as 40 and 50. The RX ratio has varied between 20, 60, and 100%, in the grid, and random topologies. The results of the study have also indicated that the OF0 protocol has showed a better performance concerning the power consumption compared to the MRHOF, while both the OFs have showed a similar PDR performance.

A Comparative Performance Evaluation of Routing Protocols for Flying Ad-Hoc Networks in Real Conditions

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely used in our modern society and their development is rapidly accelerating. Flying Ad Hoc Networks (FANETs) have opened a new window of opportunity to create new value-added services. However, the characteristics that make FANETs unique, such as node mobility, node distance, energy constraints, etc., imply that several guidelines need to be considered for their successful deployment. Although numerous routing protocols have been proposed for FANETs, due to the wide range of applications in which FANETs can be applied, not all routing protocols can be used. Due to this challenge, after breaking down and classifying the different types of existing routing protocols for FANET, this paper analyzes and compares the performance of several routing protocols (Babel, BATMAN-ADV, and OLSR) in terms of throughput and packet loss in a real deployment composed of several UAV nodes using 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi networks. The results show that Babel achieves better performance in the studied metrics than OLSR and BATMAN-ADV, while BATMAN-ADV delivers significantly lower performance. This experimental study confirms the importance of choosing the proper routing protocol for FANETs and their performance evaluation, something that will be extremely important in a few years when this type of network will be common in our day-to-day life.

The simulation results demonstrate that out of variants of SEP, ZSEP performs better among all these protocols in relation to stability, life span, and throughput of the sensor network fairly.

WITHDRAWN: Performance evaluation of reactive routing protocol using simulation knowledge

Abstract Mobile ad-hoc network technology is developed to establish the internet connectivity regardless of geographical location all the time. It is an infrastructure less network and allows the nodes to move freely and organize in an arbitral manner. Nodes in a network are autonomous, self-organize and act in a peer to peer fashion. MANET needs an effective dynamic routing protocol to achieve efficient communication. The paper analyzes the performance of various reactive routing protocols designed for MANET. The aim is to achieve a broad understanding of reactive routing protocols developed for MANET and Pave the path for future research. The paper evaluates the performance with respect to different scenarios, and analyzes the results with different performance metrics. The analysis shows the systematic evaluation of reactive routing protocols performance in terms of dynamic and static topology with multi hop communication, and variable data rates.

A hierarchical formal method for performance evaluation of WSNs protocol

The design and the evaluation of communication protocols in WSNs is a crucial issue. Generally, researchers use simulation methods to evaluate them. However, formal modelling and analysis techniques are an efficient alternative to simulation methods. Indeed, these techniques allow performance evaluation and model verification. In this paper, a formal approach is proposed to modelling and to evaluating the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) MAC protocol with a star topology. Moreover, the proposed approach deals with some properties that are not stated in most existing works. The approach uses Hierarchical Timed Coloured Petri Nets (HTCPNs) formalism to model the protocol and exploits the CPN-Tools to analyse the generated models. HTCPNs provide timed aspect which facilitates the consideration of time constraints inherent to the CSMA/CA protocol.

Development of a Performance Evaluation Protocol for Air Sensors Deployed on a Google Street View Car

Performance evaluation studies of low-cost sensors (LCS) measuring air pollutants have been conducted by academic and governmental groups for stationary applications. In contrast, evaluation protocols are nonexistent for LCS used in mobile deployments, though LCS are used in this manner by research groups and may be employed to complement regulatory directives for community monitoring. Mobile measurements with LCS are a nascent but growing use-case, and questions of data quality will become increasingly important. The South Coast Air Quality Management District's Air Quality Sensor Performance Evaluation Center has developed the first evaluation protocol in which LCS are compared to reference- or research-grade instruments while deployed on a ground-based mobile platform. LCS are assessed in test scenarios of various degrees of environmental control, ranging from placement in a controlled flow sampling duct to unsheltered mounting on a vehicle rooftop. The testing procedures aim to quantify the performance of LCS and the effects of sensor siting, orientation, and vehicle velocity, the results of which can guide users on appropriate LCS and configurations for their applications. Unexpected performance effects have been revealed through pilot-testing of this evaluation protocol that would likely have not been known from stationary field and laboratory testing.
