Wireless links are prone to jamming attacks from malicious nodes. Also, FSO links are susceptible to the changing weather conditions. Therefore backhaul networks should be designed to remain functional under such adversary operating conditions. In this paper, we design an RF/FSO backhaul topology that is robust to jamming attacks from random unknown malicious nodes and to changing weather conditions that affect the reliability of FSO communication. The design problem finds the required minimum number of links and specifies their types and locations in order to achieve a pre-specified degree of robustness. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work in literature that formulates and considers the effect of random jamming and variable weather conditions when designing the backhaul topology. We also compare the numerical results of three different regions in Japan (urban, basin, and mountain) with different statistical weather conditions, and we show how this affects the number and type of the selected links.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114964255","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 line with the progression, 5G depicts the next generation of mobile networks that further promises remarkable performance improvements as well as creation of new value chain. In parallel to 5G, the Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as another new paradigm for interconnection of massive communication-capable heterogeneous smart objects. 5G is envisaged to broaden IoT's scope and fields of applicability. However, since current mobile networks and also more general IoT systems are based on centralized models thus it is anticipated that they will face tremendous challenges to meet-up the requirements of future 5G-enabled-IoT use cases. To solve these inevitable issues Blockchain stands out as promising technology. Some of the offerings of Blockchain technology are immutability, non-repudiation, proof of provenance, integrity, privacy, etc. Blockchain's combination with 5G and IoT still requires essential insights with respect to concrete application domains, scalability, privacy issues, performance, and potential financial benefits. The paper aims to elaborate and emphasize the key aspects of the use of Blockchain for 5G and IoT.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"180 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116319755","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}

This has recently attracted significant attention from industry and academia. However, there are important challenges for NFV deployment, including performance bottlenecks, degraded fault tolerance, upgrading complexities, and security threats. To overcome these challenges, the microservice approach, which has been applied successfully in cloud computing, has motivated the research communities to apply its principles in NFV domains. In this paper, we first compare the challenges of employing the microservices approach in both the cloud computing and the NFV domains, and then discuss the need for AI-enabled microservices architecture for NFV. Performance evaluation of the microservices approach in NFV is performed on bare-metal machine setups. The results compare the pros and cons of the microservice approach and show the need for AI to handle the complex decisions associated with decomposing network functions into microservices or vice versa. We also propose an AI-enabled microservice architecture and present its potential use cases for personalized live streaming, smart public safety, and enterprise VPN (Virtual Private Network). Open questions and future work are also presented.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132301666","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}

We commence by deriving closed-form expressions of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) and the probability density function (PDF) of the product of two $mathcal{F}$ random variables. These statistics are then used to derive closed-form expressions for the ergodic capacity and ergodic outage probability of the system under consideration. Three well-known energy harvesting (EH) relaying protocols are considered; namely time-switching relaying, power splitting relaying and ideal relaying receiver. The analysis provides insights into the effect of the key parameters on the overall network performance. Monte-Carlo simulations are provided throughout to validate the correctness of our analysis. The results show that the performance of the system in terms of ergodic capacity and outage probability improves as the fading and shadowing severity reduce for all EH protocols considered. The results further demonstrate the need to balance the relay distance with channel conditions of the links to minimise the system outage.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115225002","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}

Indeed, since the creation of the Internet architecture, the needs of users have evolved from the mail exchange, file sharing to video streaming, online games, etc. Clearly, users are now much greedier in rich and varied contents with growing size. For this reason, content distribution becomes a hot research topic aiming to ensure content availability, persistence, security, and reliability. In order to overcome the limitations presented by the current Internet architecture, the concept of Information-Centric Networking (I CN) has been proposed. Paradoxically with the concept of host-centric networking, the main idea of the I CN concept is to directly address the content to access it regardless of its location. In this perspective, several studies have been conducted to propose possible implementations of ICNs. In this survey, we present the ICN concept and its key features; we describe the different ICN-based architectures, their assets, and their shortcomings. Finally, we present the challenges and opportunities raised by ICN involved in the service discovery.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124377197","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}

More specifically, the integration of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) cloud with the sensor cloud for the purpose of data collection from an infrastructure-less area is of great interest. In this paper, we propose a trust-aware micropayment system based on the blockchain (BC) technology. A set of sensor cloudlets is used for monitoring a given area and a set of cloudlets of UAV s are employed for delivering the collected data to the Transactional Center (TC). We provide a micropayment protocol where the global amount of money is converted into a number of tokens, and the actors pay each others by employing the same coins. Moreover, a trust model is proposed for both the transactional center and the UAV broker. Through our trust-aware micropayment system, authentication, trustworthiness, double-spending prevention, data-duplication prevention, forging prevention, and traceability of all the operations of payment, are ensured. We conduct a simulation to validate our provided micropayment protocol.","PeriodicalId":351664,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Eighth International Conference on Communications and Networking (ComNet)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130932489","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}
