2026 Cross: a cloud-native approach to automated remediation and self-healing in cyber-physical systems
abstract
Abstract Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) operate in increasingly complex and security-critical environments where system faults, misconfigurations, and cyberattacks can compromise safety, availability, and operational integrity. This paper presents CROSS (Cross-platform Remediation and Observability Self-Healing System), a cloud-native, cross-platform approach that extends the self-healing paradigm beyond anomaly detection to encompass autonomous, security-aware remediation. Building upon the Log Intelligence and Self-Healing System ( LISH ) (Johnphill et al. 2023a), which utilised CountVectorizer and Multinomial Naive Bayes ( MNB ) for log-based anomaly classification, CROSS introduces a policy-driven remediation layer that executes context-specific recovery actions such as service restarts, system updates, device reboots, and configuration enforcement across Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows. Prometheus-based observability (Pai and Srinivas 2024) provides fine-grained telemetry on anomalies and remedial actions, enabling continuous monitoring, auditability, and adaptive security governance. Experimental evaluation demonstrates measurable reductions in mean time to recovery (MTTR) and improvements in anomaly containment and resilience across heterogeneous CPS environments. Although CROSS includes mechanisms that are applicable to cybersecurity scenarios, the present evaluation focuses on operational anomalies rather than explicit attack-induced behaviours. Accordingly, its cybersecurity relevance is framed as an architectural capability, with empirical security benchmarking identified as future work. The proposed approach bridges the gap between anomaly detection and active cyber defence, embedding explainable, automated remediation within the operational lifecycle of CPS.

2024 Authentication and Key Agreement Based on Three Factors and PUF for UAV-Assisted Post-Disaster Emergency Communication
abstract
For unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)-assisted post-disaster emergency communication networks, UAVs serves as relay nodes of air-based backup network to support transmission of rescue messages to emergency communication vehicles (ECVs), while ECVs provide on-site ground communication and connectivity to the command center (CC) of the rescue operation. Existing works seldom emphasize communication security such as authenticity of communicating parties and integrity of message content. In this connection, authentication and key agreement (AKA) protocols are promising solutions for achieving communication security. However, the traditional approaches to endpoint security and entity authentication of principals may not be practical in emergency situations, in which network equipment and security modules are exposed to an open and untrusted physical environment. Besides, there is a lack of attention to the study of privacy impacts resulted from the physical loss of UAVs. More importantly, cyber attacks and excessive overhead may deteriorate AKA availability. Motivated by above challenges, we propose an AKA protocol, namely AKAEC, which is based on three-factor (i.e. smart card, biometrics, and password) and physically unclonable function (PUF) for protecting UAVs-assisted emergency communication. Specifically, AKAEC includes ECV-to-UAV (E2U) and UAV-to-UAV (U2U), where the former achieves secure emergency communication between ECV and UAV, while the latter realizes secure emergency communication between UAV and UAV. We then provide a formal security proof under the Real-Or-Random (ROR) model and formal security verification by AVISPA. This is followed by a security analysis to show that AKAEC meets the security goals defined for emergency situations. Finally, the performance of AKAEC is evaluated from communication overhead and computational overhead.

2024 BEET: Blockchain Enabled Energy Trading for E-Mobility Oriented Electric Vehicles
abstract
Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) are gaining considerable attention to reduce human dependence on fossil fuels and minimize harmful gases in our surroundings. Existing literature on energy trading focused on providing renewable energy to smart homes, smart buildings, and smart offices to fulfill their daily energy demands obtained from RESs. Besides, Electric Vehicles (EVs) use either power grid energy or a battery exchange mechanism to recharge their low EV batteries. The continuous use of power grids to recharge low EV batteries causes a significant load on power grids. Due to this, power grids are inadequate to fulfill the ever-increasing demands of EVs in the future. In this context, we propose a Blockchain Enabled Energy Trading (BEET) framework oriented EV charging. A system architecture of the BEET framework is presented to describe the functioning of each layer and its associated entities. We formulate an optimization problem that maximizes the revenue in the energy trading process using a knapsack optimization. Smart contracts are designed on the consortium blockchain network to sell and buy renewable energy to aggregators and from producers, respectively. Moreover, an EV charging mechanism is designed to intelligently allocate renewable energy to consumers at a low price. A comparative analysis is performed with state-of-the-art works in terms of charging price, revenue, throughput, and latency. The results indicate that the BEET framework outperforms compared to state-of-the-art works to address the renewable energy demand problem to realize E-mobility. It is clarified that the data considered in the experimental analysis were obtained from statistical simulations in realistic E-Mobility environment settings.

2023 HIDE-Healthcare IoT Data Trust ManagEment: Attribute centric intelligent privacy approach
abstract
The cloud-based Internet of Things (IoTs) storage enables patients to monitor their health remotely and offers services for physicians of various Medical Institutions (MIs) to diagnose and treat them on time. As a matter of trust, patients are legally expected to hide their real identity and ensure data privacy in the cross-domain of IoT-healthcare, whether it is stored correctly or modified due to external and internal attacks in the cloud. Additionally, physicians treat patients and continuously store duplicated data in cloud storage, which increases the cost of computing. In this context, this paper presents HIDE-Healthcare IoT Data privacy trust management framework, focusing on attributes. Patients’ attributes are used to encrypt and decrypt sensory data between patients and different entities by incorporating the idea of trustworthy and secure shared keys. HIDE uses an intelligent object’s pointer to store the same patient’s sensory data in various versions to prevent data duplication, which will help track MIs that treat patients. An intelligent content-based emergency data access control is developed to monitor multiple patient health criticalities in HIDE. The security analysis and experimental evaluation attest to the benefits of the proposed HIDE framework, considering security and privacy metrics.

2023 FLAME: Trusted Fire Brigade Service and Insurance Claim System Using Blockchain for Enterprises
abstract
Smart fire detection and insurance systems have gained considerable attention from researchers and industries. At the same time, automatic requests for fire brigade services to cure fire and instant claims settlement to defend insurance fraud are lacking in literatures. We propose a trusted fire brigade service and insurance claim (FLAME) framework using blockchain for enterprises to provide immediate fire brigade services and prevent insurance frauds. A system model is presented to explain architecture, and overall functionality of FLAME using blockchain. Further, a sensing network and connectivity model is proposed to detect true fire and send an emergency service request to monitoring station. Smart contracts are designed to automate fire brigade service and insurance claim processes. A prototype of the FLAME is implemented on hyperledger besu blockchain using Istanbul Byzantine Fault Tolerance 2.0 consensus protocol. Simulation results show that latency and throughput of the FLAME are better compared to state-of-the-art models.

2023 REER-H: A Reliable Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Maritime Intelligent Transportation Systems
abstract
The Underwater sensor network (UWSN), also known as Marine Sensor Network (MSN), is gaining increasing attention due to its applications in the monitoring of the marine environment and assisting Marine Intelligent Transportation Systems (MITS). Such systems provide in-vehicle assistance services (i.e., traffic monitoring and driver alerts) by gathering transportation and environmental information. Though very promising, there are several barriers to developing energy-efficient communication protocols for heterogeneous MSN, including selecting optimal routing paths twinned with the lifetime of these sensor nodes along the path, which are restricted due to the limited energy storage capacity. Hereby, the selection of an optimal route path also necessitates harvesting and management of the sensor nodes’ energy. To facilitate this, the current work presents REER-H, a Reliable Energy Efficient Routing protocol with Harvesting for cluster-based MSN capable of multi-source energy harvesting and an incorporated energy management technique. Incorporating three separate layers of the protocol stack, namely, network, MAC, and physical layers, REER-H uses its proposed adaptive scheduling technique to support collision-free data transmission by assigning adaptive time slots based on demand and data load. Also, the proposed integrated energy harvesting and management solves the energy hole problem and enhances the overall network lifetime. In comparison to the existing cooperative and cluster-based energy-efficient routing protocols for underwater maritime communication, the simulated results using Network Simulator-3 (NS3) reveal that the proposed scheme remarkably enhances the overall network performance in terms of packet delivery ratio, throughput, lifetime energy consumption, and end-to-end delay for MSN.

2022 A Reinforcement Learning-based Assignment Scheme for EVs to Charging Stations
abstract
Due to recent developments in electric mobility, public charging infrastructure will be essential for modern transportation systems. As the number of electric vehicles (EVs) increases, the public charging infrastructure needs to adopt efficient charging practices. A key challenge is the assignment of EVs to charging stations (CSs) in an energy efficient manner. In this paper, a Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based EV Assignment Scheme (RL-EVAS) is proposed to solve the problem of assigning EV to the optimal CS in urban environments, aiming at minimizing the total cost of charging EVs and reducing the overload on Electrical Grids (EGs). Travelling cost that is resulted from the movement of EV to CS, and the charging cost at CS are considered. Moreover, the EV’s Battery State of Charge (SoC) is taken into account in the proposed scheme. The proposed RL-EVAS approach will approximate the solution by finding an optimal policy function in the sense of maximizing the expected value of the total reward over all successive steps using Q-learning algorithm, based on the Temporal Difference (TD) learning and Bellman expectation equation. Finally, the numerous simulation results illustrate that the proposed scheme can significantly reduce the total energy cost of EVs compared to various case studies and greedy algorithm, and also demonstrate its behavioural adaptation to any environmental conditions.

2022 Two-Phase Industrial Manufacturing Service Management for Energy Efficiency of Data Centers
abstract
Data-driven industrial manufacturing services are proliferating. They use large amounts of data generated from Industrial-Internet-of-Things (IIoT) devices for intelligent services to end-service-users. However, cloud data centers hosting these services consume a huge amount of energy, resulting in a high operational cost. To address this issue, an energy-efficient resource allocation framework is proposed in this article for cloud services. It operates in two phases. First, a multithreshold-based host CPU utilization classification scheme is developed to classify hosts into four groups for improved CPU resource allocation. It is designed through analyzing CPU utilization data by using the least median squares regression technique. Thereby, the scheme limits search space, thus reducing time complexity. In the second phase, with a metaheuristic search, an energy- and thermal-aware resource allocation method is developed to find an energy-efficient host for allocating resources to services. From real data center workload traces, extensive experiments show that our framework outperforms existing baseline approaches with 6.9%, 33.75%, and 34.1% on average in terms of temperature, energy consumption, and service-level-agreement violation, respectively.

2022 ChaseMe: A Heuristic Scheme for Electric Vehicles Mobility Management on Charging Stations in a Smart City Scenario
abstract
Towards achieving the goal of green transportation, the usage of battery powered electric vehicles (BEVs) has been continuously growing across the globe. However, considering the limited number of Charging Stations (CSs) in the cities, electric vehicle charging problem has become a challenging task, especially, due to the constraints of longer waiting time and dynamic pricing at the CHs. This issue has led to the degradation in Quality of Experience (QoE) for BEV drivers. Moreover, Charging Point (CP) service providers in the cities also suffer from lack of space which causes higher congestion at the CSs. In this context, we propose ChaseMe, a heuristic scheme for optimizing CS management by scheduling BEVs based on availability and type (fast/ultra-fast) of CPs by considering delay and charging time for CPs reservation. The proposed heuristic scheme consists of two soft computing techniques i) Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) and ii) Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). Former technique is used to map the CP reservation requests to the best-suited CS by considering Quality of Service (QoS) parameters and acting as a global optimizer. FIS locally manages CPs at a particular CS in coordination with proposed meta-heuristic technique. The experimental results prove the benefits of the proposed ChaseMe framework as compared to the state-of-the-art techniques considering various charging metrics for BEVs.

2022 DECENT: Deep Learning Enabled Green Computation for Edge Centric 6G Networks
abstract
Edge computing has received significant attention from academia and industries and has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing the information processing capability at the edge for next generation 6G networks. The technical design of 6G edge networks in terms of offloading the computationally extensive task is very critical because of the overgrowth in data volume primarily due to the explosion of smart IoT devices, and the ever-reducing size of these energy-constrained devices in IoT systems. Toward harnessing the benefits of deep recurrent neural network based on Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) in the design of next-generation edge networks, this paper presents a framework DECENT- Deep learning Enabled green Computation for Edge centric Next generation 6G networks. The data offloading problem is modeled as a Markov decision process considering joint optimization of energy consumption, computation latency, and offloading rate for network utility in 6G environment. The algorithm learns faster from previous long-term offloading experiences and solves the optimization problem with better convergence speed. Simulation results of the proposed framework DECENT shows that it maximizes the network utility by overcoming the challenges as compared to the state-of-the-art techniques.

2021 Toward Physical-Layer Security for Internet of Vehicles: Interference-Aware Modeling
abstract
The physical-layer security (PLS) of wireless networks has witnessed significant attention in next-generation communication systems due to its potential toward enabling protection at the signal level in dense network environments. The growing trends toward smart mobility via sensor-enabled vehicles are transforming today's traffic environment into Internet of Vehicles (IoVs). Enabling PLS for IoVs would be a significant development considering the dense vehicular network environment in the near future. In this context, this article presents a PLS framework for a vehicular network consisting a legitimate receiver and an eavesdropper, both under the effect of interfering vehicles. The double-Rayleigh fading channel is used to capture the effect of mobility within the communication channel. The performance is analyzed in terms of the average secrecy capacity (ASC) and secrecy outage probability (SOP). We present the standard expressions for the ASC and SOP in alternative forms, to facilitate analysis in terms of the respective moment generating function (MGF) and characteristic function of the joint fading and interferer statistics. Closed-form expressions for the MGFs and characteristic functions were obtained and Monte Carlo simulations were provided to validate the results. Approximate expressions for the ASC and SOP were also provided, for easier analysis and insight into the effect of the network parameters. The results attest that the performance of the considered system was affected by the number of interfering vehicles as well as their distances. It was also demonstrated that the system performance closely correlates with the uncertainty in the eavesdropper's vehicle location.

2021 Green Computing in Software Defined Social Internet of Vehicles
abstract
Social Internet of Vehicles (SIoV) is an evolving vehicular networking framework integrating the next generation smart devices with vehicular communications. Green computing and communication under disruptive vehicular environment is one of the challenging tasks for enabling SIoV. In this context, green traffic data dissemination in SIoV environments is modelled as an NP-hard problem focusing on heterogeneous traffic data, transmission distance from next generation smart devices and probabilistic delay in transmissions due to disruptive vehicular environment. An adopted meta-heuristic solution namely Two-Way Particle Swarm Optimization (TWPSO) is developed for the green traffic data dissemination problem in SIoV considering software defined vehicular network architecture. Extensive simulation experiments were performed to assess the performance of TWPSO as compared to the state-of-the-art techniques. The critical analysis of the comparative results attest the green computing oriented benefits of TWPSO under real SIoV environments.

2021 Toward Pre-Empted EV Charging Recommendation Through V2V-Based Reservation System
abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) are being introduced by different manufacturers, thanks to their environment-friendly perspective to alleviate CO2pollution. In this paper, the proposed EV charging management scheme enables pre-empted charging service for heterogeneous EVs (depends on different charging capabilities, brands, etc.). Particularly, the anticipated EVs' charging reservations information, including their arrival time and expected charging time at charging stations (CSs), are brought for planning CS-selection (where to charge). Along with applying ubiquitous cellular network communication to deliver (delay tolerant) EVs' charging reservations, we further study the feasibility of applying opportunistic vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication with delay/disruption tolerant networking (DTN) nature, due primarily to its flexibility and cost-efficiency in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Evaluation results under the realistic Helsinki city scenario show that applying the V2V-based charging reservation is promisingly cost-efficient in terms of communication overhead, while achieving a comparable charging performance to apply cellular network communication.

2021 Green Communication for Next-Generation Wireless Systems: Optimization Strategies, Challenges, Solutions, and Future Aspects
abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have emerged as a backbone technology for the wireless communication era. The demand for WSN is rapidly increasing due to their major role in various applications with a wider deployment and omnipresent nature. The WSN is rapidly integrated into a large number of applications such as industrial, security, monitoring, tracking, and applications in home automation. The widespread use in many different areas attracts research interest in WSNs. Therefore, researchers are taking initiatives in exploring innovation day by day particularly towards the Internet of Things (IoT). But, WSN is having lots of challenging issues that need to be addressed, and the inherent characteristics of WSN severely affect the performance. Energy constraints are one of the primary issues that require urgent attention from the research community. Optimal energy optimization strategies are needed to counter the issue of energy constraints. Although one of the most appropriate schemes for handling energy constraints issues is the appropriate energy harvesting technique, the optimal energy optimization strategies should be coupled together for effectively utilizing the harvested energy. In this high‐level systematic and taxonomical survey, we have organized the energy optimization strategies for EH‐WSNs into eleven factors, namely, radio optimization schemes, optimizing the energy harvesting process, data reduction schemes, schemes based on cross‐layer optimization, schemes based on cross‐layer optimization, sleep/wake‐up policies, schemes based on load balancing, schemes based on optimization of power requirement, optimization of communication mechanism, schemes based on optimization of battery operations, mobility‐based schemes, and finally energy balancing schemes. We have also prepared the summarized view of various protocols/algorithms with their remarkable details. This systematic and taxonomy survey also provides a progressive detailed overview and classification of various optimization challenges for the EH‐WSNs that require attention from the researcher followed by a survey of corresponding solutions for corresponding optimization issues. Further, this systematic and taxonomical survey also provides a deep analysis of various emerging energy harvesting technologies in the last twenty years of the era.

2021 Energy-Efficient Routing Using Fuzzy Neural Network in Wireless Sensor Networks
abstract
In wireless sensor networks, energy is a precious resource that should be utilized wisely to improve its life. Uneven distribution of load over sensor devices is also the reason for the depletion of energy that can cause interruptions in network operations as well. For the next generation’s ubiquitous sensor networks, a single artificial intelligence methodology is not able to resolve the issue of energy and load. Therefore, this paper proposes an energy‐efficient routing using a fuzzy neural network (ERFN) to minimize the energy consumption while fairly equalizing energy consumption among sensors thus as to prolong the lifetime of the WSN. The algorithm utilizes fuzzy logic and neural network concepts for the intelligent selection of cluster head (CH) that will precisely consume equal energy of the sensors. In this work, fuzzy rules, sets, and membership functions are developed to make decisions regarding next‐hop selection based on the total residual energy, link quality, and forward progress towards the sink. The developed algorithm ERFN proofs its efficiency as compared to the state‐of‐the‐art algorithms concerning the number of alive nodes, percentage of dead nodes, average energy decay, and standard deviation of residual energy.

2020 Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Enabled IoT Networks in Generalized Fading Channels
abstract
This paper studies an Internet-of-Things (IoT) network employing a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) over generalized fading channels. Inspired by the promising potential of RIS-based transmission, we investigate a RIS-enabled IoT network with the source node employing a RIS-based access point. The system is modelled with reference to a receiver-transmitter pair and the Fisher-Snedecor F model is adopted to analyse the composite fading and shadowing channel. Closed-form expressions are derived for the system with regards to the average capacity, average bit error rate (BER) and outage probability. Monte-Carlo simulations are provided throughout to validate the results. The results investigated and reported in this study extend early results reported in the emerging literature on RIS-enabled technologies and provides a framework for the evaluation of a basic RIS-enabled IoT network over the most common multipath fading channels. The results indicate the clear benefit of employing a RIS-enabled access point, as well as the versatility of the derived expressions in analysing the effects of fading and shadowing on the network. The results further demonstrate that for a RIS-enabled IoT network, there is the need to balance between the cost and benefit of increasing the RIS cells against other parameters such as increasing transmit power, especially at low SNR and/or high to moderate fading/shadowing severity.

2020 Energy-efficient EV Charging Station Placement for E-Mobility
abstract
Despite all the acknowledged advantages and recent developments in terms of reducing the environmental impact, noise reduction and energy efficiency, the electric mobility market is still below the expectations. Among the most important challenges that limit the market penetration of Electric Vehicles (EVs) as well as achieving a sustainable mobility system in cities is the efficient distribution of adequate EV charging stations (CSs). In this paper, we propose a novel approach to find the best locations for EVCSs that considers a combination of factors including displacement between the EV and CS, elevation difference between their locations and finite capacities of CSs. The problem is formulated as a Mixed Integer Linear problem (MILP) to minimize the total energy consumption of EVs to reach CSs. A combination of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) technique and the Branch and Bound (B&B) algorithm are used to solve the problem. The proposed EVCSs placement technique is experimentally tested considering different case studies. With real world datasets, the results demonstrate the energy centric benefits of the proposed EVCSs placement technique.

2020 Physical Layer Security in Vehicular Networks with Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces
abstract
This paper studies the physical layer security (PLS) of a vehicular network employing a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). RIS technologies are emerging as an important paradigm for the realisation of smart radio environments, where large numbers of small, low-cost and passive elements, reflect the incident signal with an adjustable phase shift without requiring a dedicated energy source. Inspired by the promising potential of RIS-based transmission, we investigate two vehicular network system models: One with vehicle-to-vehicle communication with the source employing a RIS-based access point, and the other model in the form of a vehicular adhoc network (VANET), with a RIS-based relay deployed on a building. Both models assume the presence of an eavesdropper to investigate the average secrecy capacity of the considered systems. Monte-Carlo simulations are provided throughout to validate the results. The results show that performance of the system in terms of the secrecy capacity is affected by the location of the RIS-relay and the number of RIS cells. The effect of other system parameters such as source power and eavesdropper distances are also studied.

abstract
This paper studies the physical layer security of a vehicular communication network in the presence of interference constraints by analysing its secrecy capacity. The system considers a legitimate receiver node and an eavesdropper node, within a shared network, both under the effect of interference from other users. The double-Rayleigh fading channel is used to capture the effects of the wireless communication channel for the vehicular network. We present the standard logarithmic expression for the system capacity in an alternate form, to facilitate analysis in terms of the joint moment generating functions (MGF) of the random variables representing the channel fading and interference. Closed-form expressions for the MGFs are obtained and Monte-Carlo simulations are provided throughout to validate the results. The results show that performance of the system in terms of the secrecy capacity is affected by the number of interferers and their distances. The results further demonstrate the effect of the uncertainty in eavesdropper location on the analysis.

2019 Toward a Heterogeneous Mist, Fog, and Cloud-Based Framework for the Internet of Healthcare Things
abstract
Rapid developments in the fields of information and communication technology and microelectronics allowed seamless interconnection among various devices letting them to communicate with each other. This technological integration opened up new possibilities in many disciplines including healthcare and well-being. With the aim of reducing healthcare costs and providing improved and reliable services, several healthcare frameworks based on Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) have been developed. However, due to the critical and heterogeneous nature of healthcare data, maintaining high quality of service (QoS)-in terms of faster responsiveness and data-specific complex analytics-has always been the main challenge in designing such systems. Addressing these issues, this paper proposes a five-layered heterogeneous mist, fog, and cloud-based IoHT framework capable of efficiently handling and routing (near-)real-time as well as offline/batch mode data. Also, by employing software defined networking and link adaptation-based load balancing, the framework ensures optimal resource allocation and efficient resource utilization. The results, obtained by simulating the framework, indicate that the designed network via its various components can achieve high QoS, with reduced end-to-end latency and packet drop rate, which is essential for developing next generatione-healthcare systems.

2018 Virtualization in Wireless Sensor Networks: Fault Tolerant Embedding for Internet of Things
abstract
Recently, virtualization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has witnessed significant attention due to the growing service domain for Internet of Things (IoT). Related literature on virtualization in WSNs explored resource optimization without considering communication failure in WSNs environments. The failure of a communication link in WSNs impacts many virtual networks running IoT services. In this context, this paper proposes a framework for optimizing fault tolerance (FT) in virtualization in WSNs, focusing on heterogeneous networks for service-oriented IoT applications. An optimization problem is formulated considering FT and communication delay as two conflicting objectives. An adapted nondominated sorting-based genetic algorithm (A-NSGA) is developed to solve the optimization problem. The major components of A-NSGA include chromosome representation, FT and delay computation, crossover and mutation, and nondominance-based sorting. Analytical and simulation-based comparative performance evaluation has been carried out. From the analysis of results, it is evident that the framework effectively optimizes FT for virtualization in WSNs.

2018 Fuzzy-Based Channel Selection for Location Oriented Services in Multichannel VCPS Environments
abstract
Location-oriented services in vehicular cyber-physical system (VCPS) have witnessed significant attention due to their potentiality to address traffic safety and efficiency related issues. The multichannel communication aids these services by tuning their overall performance in vehicular environments. Related literature on multichannel communication focuses on interference as channel quality measure. However, uncertain mobility and density of vehicles significantly affect channel quality apart from interference. The static quantification of channel quality is not suitable due to the dynamic characteristics of the channel quality parameters. In this context, this paper proposes fuzzy-based channel selection framework for location-oriented services in multichannel VCPS environments. A system model is presented for deriving channel access delay (CAD) using Markov chain model. The channel quality is estimated using CAD and signal-to-interference ratio (SIR). The fuzzy logic-based channel selection framework is developed considering fuzzification and defuzzification of CAD and SIR. The comparative performance evaluation attests the benefit of the framework as compared to the state-of-the-art techniques in VCPS.

2018 An EV Charging Management System Concerning Drivers' Trip Duration and Mobility Uncertainty
abstract
With continually increased attention on electric vehicles (EVs) due to environment impact, public charging stations (CSs) for EVs will become common. However, due to the limited electricity of battery, EV drivers may experience discomfort for long charging waiting time during their journeys. This often happens when a large number of (on-the-move) EVs are planning to charge at the same CS, but it has been heavily overloaded. With this concern, in an EV charging management system, we focus on CS-selection decision making and propose a scheme to manage EVs' charging plans, to minimize drivers' trip duration through intermediate charging at CSs. The proposed scheme jointly considers EVs' anticipated charging reservations (including arrival time and expected charging time) and parking duration at CSs. Furthermore, by tackling mobility uncertainty that EVs may not reach their planned CSs on time (due to traffic jams on the road), a periodical reservation updating mechanism is designed to adjust their charging plans. Results under the Helsinki city scenario with realistic EV and CS characteristics show the advantage of our proposal, in terms of minimized drivers' trip duration, as well as charging performance at the EV and CS sides.

2014 Collaborative fuzzy rule learning for Mamdani type fuzzy inference system with mapping of cluster centers
abstract
This paper demonstrates a novel model for Mamdani type fuzzy inference system by using the knowledge learning ability of collaborative fuzzy clustering and rule learning capability of FCM. The collaboration process finds consistency between different datasets, these datasets can be generated at various places or same place with diverse environment containing common features space and bring together to find common features within them. For any kind of collaboration or integration of datasets, there is a need of keeping privacy and security at some level. By using collaboration process, it helps fuzzy inference system to define the accurate numbers of rules for structure learning and keeps the performance of system at satisfactory level while preserving the privacy and security of given datasets.
