Cyber security is based on different principles such as confidentiality and integrity of transmitted data. One of the main methods to send confidential messages is to use a shared secret to encrypt and decrypt them. Even if the amortized computational complexity of the hashing functions is Ο(1), there are several situations when it is not…

In Senegal, agriculture has always been seen as the foundation on which the socioeconomic development of the country rests. However, in the rural world, agriculture remains traditional at a time when the challenges of food self-sufficiency to accompany emergence are launched. In the southern part of Senegal commonly called Casamance, the abundance of rain makes…

The constant evolution of Information and Communication Technologies, Internet, access to different free software, among others; they generate problems in the management of information security in companies; to mitigate risks, vulnerabilities, and information threats, an alternative was presented considering that information security systems are the basis for decision-making at the government, strategic, tactical, and operational…

The rapid advancement of the Internet of Things (IoT) is distinguished by heterogeneous technologies that provide cutting-edge services across a range of application domains. However, by eavesdropping on encrypted WiFi network traflc, attackers can infer private information such as the types and working status of IoT devices in a business or residential home. Moreover, since…

Hackers on the Internet often send attacking commands through compromised hosts, called stepping-stones, for the purpose to be hidden behind a long interactive communication session. In a stepping-stone attack, an intruder uses a chain of stepping-stones as relay machines and remotely login these machines using a remote login program such as SSH (secure shell). A…

Owing to technological development, the internet has become the world’s largest platform where an unaccountable amount of e-news information is freely available to use. Most of the time, e-newspaper readers have to examine the massive collection of e-news articles to locate necessary information relevant to them. Massive semi-structured and unstructured texts usually mislead the readers…

Technologies designed for digital provenance, especially the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain, may allow for security, transparency, and traceability in the global supply chain. However, upstream nodes in the supply chain that work for large-scale production suppliers are not considered. In addition, most IoT blockchain systems adopt an ID-based signature scheme that may affect…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the evolving paradigm of interconnectedness of objects with varied architectures and resources to provide ubiquitous and desired services. The popularization of IoT-connected devices facilitating evolution of IoT applications does come with security challenges. The IoT with the integration of wireless sensor networks possess a number of unique characteristics, so…

Social networks have become a valuable platform for tracking and analyzing Internet users’ feelings. This analysis provides crucial information for decision-making in various areas, such as politics and marketing. In addition to this challenge and our interest in the field of big data and sentiment analysis in social networks, we have dedicated this work to…

With the development of Internet of Things technology and the widespread use of smart devices, artificial intelligence is now being applied as a decision-making tool in a variety of fields. To make machine learning models, including deep neural network models, more interpretable, various techniques have been proposed. In this paper, a method for explaining the…

Scientists succeeded in implementing conventional public switch telephone network (PSTN) into internet protocol by launching H.323 IP telephony. The irrelevant and unknown captions in H.323, computer scientists have replaced H.323 by Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Voice-over-IP (VoIP). However, the security of voice communication over IP is still a major concern. Besides, security and performance…

In this research we developed an BIM-based system to monitor and visualize the real-time building users information. Concentrating on building in-use stages, advantages in tracking facial recognition should be revealed through the availability of real-time information. In this way could explore the possibility of how BIM and IoT could improve data-oriented facility management. The integration…

Presently, individuals generate tremendous volumes of information on the internet. As a result, sentiment analysis is a critical tool for automating a deep understanding of user-generated information. Of late, deep learning algorithms have shown endless promises for a variety of sentiment analysis. The purpose of sentiment analysis is to categorize different descriptions as good, bad,…

Lab sessions in Engineering Education are designed to reinforce theoretical concepts. However, there is usually not enough time to reinforce all of them. Remote and virtual labs give students more time to reinforce those concepts. In particular, with remote labs, this can be done interacting with real lab instruments and specific configurations. This work proposes…

With the advent of internet technology and social media, patterns of social communication in daily lives have changed whereby people use different social networking platforms. Microblog is a new platform for sharing opinions by means of emblematic expressions, which has become a resource for research on emotion analysis. Recognition of emotion from microblogs (REM) is…

Cloud is an Internet-based computing technology in which on-demand shared resources such as software, platforms, repositories, and information are delivered to customers. In the emerging era of computing cloud environment provide the use of resources with the concept of virtualization. Workflow of the tasks has vital role for the improvement of computing performance which leads…

In recent years, the applications in the field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems has procured research interests among various communities. One of the primary factors being, thinking beyond the box of what could UAV system bring to the table other than military applications? Evidence to any answer for this question is the current day…

In the Internet of Things era it is expected that low-end processor domination of the embedded market will be further reaffirmed. Then, a question will arise, on whether it is possible to enhance performance of such processors without the cost of high-end architectures. In this work we propose a better-than-worst-case (BTWC) methodology which enables the…

Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) is used to discover the MAC address of the connected hosts in Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) in a networked environment. Neighbor Cache Entry (NCE) table holds the association between a host’s IP address and MAC address. However, according to the protocol, the MAC address could be overwritten by sending a…

Internet of Things provides the support for devices, people and things to collaborate in collecting, analyzing and sharing sensitive information from one device onto the other through the internet. The internet of things is thriving largely due to access, connectivity, artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches that it supports. The stability and enhanced speed of…

Worldwide, the epidemiological situation is constantly changing and with the exponential increase in the number of confirmed coronavirus cases, the number of health care workers has decreased significantly and this is due to the direct and daily contact of patients.
