These service-based networks depend on high up-times and heavy resistance in order to compete in the market. Along with this growth, denial of service attacks have equally grown. Defending against these attacks has become increasingly difficult with the growth of Internet of Things and the different varieties of denial of service attacks. For this, our research offers a solution of implementing software-defined networking and real-time metric based techniques to mitigate a denial of service attack within a smaller time window than other comparable solutions. The use of our method offers both efficient attack handling and also flexibility to fit a variety of implementations. The end result being a network that can automatically adapt against new attacks based on previous network activity. more »

The data is scattered on the internet and it is quite difficult to find information in a fairly precise way. Despite the existence of Internet research services (search engines) developed to facilitate the search for information in the vast data network that is the Internet, there are still concerns about quality, and the relevance of information provided in as research results. In this context, we present in this paper a construction approach and the architecture of a search engine dedicated to the environment around the Congo Basin area. This paper develops a theoretical approach that uses scientific analysis and empirical approaches to conceptualize the optimization of the relevance of the results of a thematic search engine by aggregating tools. This approach is a compilation of ideas, methods and tools that, put together, will improve the relevance of the results of a thematic research. more »

Each of these ‘things’ produces data which can work in unison to react to its users. Machine learning makes use of this data to make inferences about our habits and activities, such as our buying preferences or likely commute destinations. However, this level of human inclusion within the IoT relies on indirect inferences from the usage of these devices or services. Activity recognition is already a widely researched area and could provide a more direct way of including humans within this system. This research explores the feasibility of using a cost effective, unobtrusive, single modality ground-based sensor matrix to track subtle pressure changes to predict user activity, in an effort to assess its ability to act as an intermediary interface between humans and digital systems such as the IoT. more »

However, there is a pressing lack of progress in the standardisation of methods, as well as generalised framework of their evaluation. The aim of this survey is to discuss the currently prevalent and emerging types of sensors used for location estimation. The intent of this review is to take account of this taxonomy and to provide a wider understanding of the current state-of-the-art. To that end, we outline various sensor modalities, as well as popular fusion and integration techniques, discussing how their combinations can help in various application settings. Firstly, we present the fundamental mechanics behind sensors employed by the localisation community. Furthermore we outline the formal theory behind prominent fusion methods and provide exhaustive implementation examples of each. Finally, we provide points for future discussion regarding localisation sensing, fusion and integration methods. more »

To avoid problems BG self-management is needed. We developed a non-invasive breathing system (HYPOalert) to detect HYPO in human-breath, that sends warning alerts and data visualization to monitor progress. This paper presents two HYPOalert prototype iterations with testing results. Of 14 Type 1/2 diabetics tested, only 10% were pleased with existing monitoring systems and 85% expressed interest in using HYPOalert more than 20x a day. The usability study showed that 92% agreed-strongly agreed with the HYPOalert design, including color/menus/navigation/typography; and 64% felt positive about the apps consistency, flexibility, and info architecture. A post-test survey provided a satisfaction score: 6.64/10, with an open-ended interview showing that HYPOalert could positively impact lifestyle practices, self-managing, and help advance an understanding of the disease. more »

While technology needs to become more and more invisible to provide smart support, novel forms of user experience and multimodal interaction need to be devised to enable fluid, intuitive and appealing transitions between the physical and digital world. This journal seeks contributions from leading experts and visionary thinkers in industry and research, about the principles, interaction paradigms, methods and applications that best can drive the future design of Ambient Systems and their human-centred, situated interfaces. more »
