In this paper, a non-Cooperative Hierarchical Reactive Caching (nCHRC) algorithm is proposed as an optimal multi-level cache content placement method. The main innovative idea of this work is using a parameter called virality which illustrates the impact of time on the popularity of the contents. Moreover, some parameters such as well-known popularity, virality and size of the file are efficiently aggregated as a single parameter named priority. The results show that our method successfully improves the cache hit rate, backhaul traffic and content access delay of the network.","PeriodicalId":301027,"journal":{"name":"2020 3rd International Conference on Advanced Communication Technologies and Networking (CommNet)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122476500","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}

The most important medical applications are the early prediction system for heart diseases especially, coronary artery disease (CAD) also called atherosclerosis. The need for a medical diagnosis support system is to detect atherosclerosis at the earlier stages to optimize the diagnosis, avoid the advanced cases, and reduce treatment costs. Here, a supervised machine learning medical diagnosis support system (MDSS) for atherosclerosis prediction is presented that is able to obtain and learn automatically knowledge from each patient’s clinical data. Therefore, we used the various ML classifiers for the proposed medical diagnosis support system for atherosclerosis. Two supervised ML algorithms (Artificial Neural Network and Adaptive Boosting) were used in order to compare which one is more efficient for atherosclerosis diagnosis. Thus, this work is accomplished using databases collected from the UCI repository (Cleveland, Hungarian) and Sani Z-Alizadeh dataset. The performance metrics were computed utilizing Recall, Accuracy and Precision. Furthermore and F1 score measures were also calculated to greatly increase the proposed system performance. Consequently, the proposed model can be used to support healthcare and facilitate large-scale clinical diagnostic of atherosclerosis diseases.","PeriodicalId":301027,"journal":{"name":"2020 3rd International Conference on Advanced Communication Technologies and Networking (CommNet)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122489625","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}

Time-switching protocol is examined in the analysis for EH. In addition, the S-R and R-D hops are modeled by the Nakagami-m and $alpha-mu$ fading models, respectively. A closed-form expression for the cumulative distribution function of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio is derived, based on which novel exact and asymptotic closed-form formulas for the average symbol error rate and average channel capacity are derived.

At each iteration, we test if there is a connection between the last node of traversal that started from the source and the last node of traversal that started from the sink. The execution time for finding all the minimal paths will be reduced, because this technique will allow us to progress at each time by two edges, instead of progressing by one edge like the algorithms of the literature.","PeriodicalId":301027,"journal":{"name":"2020 3rd International Conference on Advanced Communication Technologies and Networking (CommNet)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123425496","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}

The selection of paths having stability, security and an extended network lifetime is one of the crucial issues in the design of routing protocols. In this paper, the authors propose an enhanced algorithm relying on a multipurpose function according to three metrics, mobility, energy and reputation levels to improve the routing decision-making process. The main goal is to identify better performing Multipoint relays (MPRs) which are used to relay messages between nodes. They are also necessary for routing and selecting the appropriate route from any source to any destination node. The identification of the most efficient MPRs can upgrade the network performing even in the most challenging conditions of the dynamic environment. The authors implement the advanced algorithm in the OLSR and get the performance result by using a network simulator (NS3) running under the mobility model of the Manhattan network. The achieved results show important performance compared to the default version. In addition, the proposed model can be employed to improve network efficiency for proactive protocols in ad-hoc networks.","PeriodicalId":301027,"journal":{"name":"2020 3rd International Conference on Advanced Communication Technologies and Networking (CommNet)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120974488","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}

Generally, there are two main types of approaches namely the analytical approach and the global approach. In this paper, we have exploited the global approach, which is based on a single description of the image of the word, seen as an indivisible entity. Our work is devoted to offline handwritten Arabic word recognition based on the global limited vocabulary approach using the IFN/ENIT database, which contains handwritten Arabic words featuring handwritten Tunisian city/village names. In the feature extraction phase, we studied three types of descriptors; the oriented gradient histogram, the local binary pattern and the Gabor filter for feature extraction. We evaluate the performance of our models by calculating some common metrics.
