In this paper, we first show that factors such as sparseness, inherent error probabilities of rating feedback labelers, and prior knowledge of the event trust scoring models, can be used by strategic adversaries to hijack the feedback labeling mechanism itself with bad mouthing attacks. Then, we propose a randomized rating sub-sampling technique inspired from moving target defense and cyber deception to mitigate the degradation in the resulting event trust scores of truthful events. We offer a game theoretic strategy under various knowledge levels of an adversary and the MCS in regards to picking an optimal sub-sample size for bad mouthing attacks and event trust calculations respectively, by using a vehicular crowdsensing as a proof-of-concept.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129757532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we characterize the end-to-end delay on a Mobile Wireless Sensor Network (MWSN) with an analytical method based on Stochastic Network Calculus (SNC) with Moment Generating Functions (MGFs). The particularity of the studied scenario is that the network is composed of two segments: one with multiple nodes connected by a contention-based channel using the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF), and another consisting of a link prone to disconnection due to the mobility pattern of the nodes in the first segment. Numerical performance bounds are provided for an example application in which the effects of per-node offered load, scheduling algorithms and connectivity on the link to the sink are quantified for different network sizes.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"2001 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127396548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these videos demand high bandwidth and processing power at the end devices. Though, viewport (VP) aware streaming can reduce the amount of data transmitted by streaming a limited portion of the frame covering the current user viewport, popular content providers still transfer the entire panoramic frame which demands more bandwidth. Also, these mechanisms, which partition the frames into a fixed number of tiles can not provide a finer boundary to cover the user VP, causing high pixel redundancy. To address these issues, first, we propose an offline and near-realtime 360° vs normal video classification tool which is further extended to analyse 360° video streaming distribution in the wild. Secondly, we propose a content aware 360° video partitioning tool leveraging a computational geometric approach. Our initial results show the feasibility of both proposals.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125363699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ground based remote controllers are constrained by the terrain and the curvature of the Earth. The proposed design overcomes these limitations and provides a tower alternative, which is inexpensive, easily deployable, and moveable in all three dimensions. We show that a typical battery-powered UAV flight time is limited to just above one hour, or under half an hour with its maximum liftable payload, and therefore propose a power tether that connects the UAV to a ground power source. This is important to be able to serve rover UAVs that can be asynchronously launched. The hovering UAV will turn to steer the high gain antenna based on position reports from the roving UAV. The prototype design leverages commercial off the shelf equipment as much as possible and uses the L-band unlicensed frequency range of 902-928 MHz which is close to the aviation protected frequency band.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"602 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123209032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They combine the concept of the sliding window from (Automatic Repeat reQuest) ARQ protocols with RLNC in order to maximize the data flow and quickly recover from losses through redundant coded packets. We make the observation that, in these protocols, optimizing the data flow rate and the coding operation are two distinct objectives that cannot be met only by fine-tuning the sliding window size. To tackle the problem, we propose rapidARQ, a sliding window RLNC scheme with feedback that uses two distinct windows; the sliding window, which is used to optimize the data flow based on the link’s bandwidth-delay product, and the coding window, which is used exclusively in the coding process. We experimentally show that rapidARQ outperforms other state-of-the-art sliding window RLNC schemes and achieves superior throughput-delay performance that better fits in the context of Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC). More interestingly, it does so while significantly reducing the coding complexity at the same time. The superior performance of rapidARQ is more prominent in channels with large bandwidth-delay products, a fact that renders its utility to current and future networks more essential.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128386026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a nonintrusive method, workflows mined from system logs facilitate administrators to quickly locate and diagnose anomalies in time. System logs are usually interleaved since there are lots of concurrent and asynchronous operations and executions on large scale IoT devices. Consequently, it is so challenging to construct an adaptive workflow from these logs and realize the real-time anomaly detection. To meet this challenge, in this paper, we propose a two-stage workflow construction approach named Sysnif, which includes offline construction and online adjustment. First, the window-based dependence computing method is employed to obtain the context of execution paths. Second, a weight-greedy algorithm is designed to denoise the interleaved system logs effectively. Third, in order to match system mechanism variation, the online micro-iteration adjusting algorithm is presented to update the workflow model. Experiment results highlight that Sysnif can outperform state-of-the-art methods, such as Logsed, on dataset of OpenStack logs by 22.4% on recall, meanwhile maintaining the same precision roughly. Sysnif can achieve an average precision and recall of 93.8% and 94.7%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":131571,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129184336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
