The WSN consists of M EH sensor nodes aiming to transmit their data to a sink node with minimum delay. Each sensor node has a battery of limited capacity to save the harvested energy and a buffer of limited size to store both the sensed and relayed data from neighboring nodes. A state-action-reward-state-action (SARSA) based distributed algorithm is proposed. The proposed distributed-SARSA (D-SARSA) algorithm adaptively changes the transmitted data and power control at each sensor node according to the state information such that the data of all sensor nodes are received at the sink node with minimum delay. Simulation results demonstrate the merits of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":359145,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking (BlackSeaCom)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114949144","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}

At the same time, the ubiquitous and wide-range systems make them prone to attacks. Security experts have warned of the potential risk of huge numbers of unsecured devices united into the global ubiquitous system. To unlock the potential of Internet of Things it needs to improve the security of applications. An intrusion detection mechanism is an important element of security paradigm. However conventional intrusion detection methods are expected to fail, because many user devices have constrained resources. In this paper, we consider a lightweight attack detection strategy utilizing machine learning techniques, which is appropriate for low-resource IoT devices.","PeriodicalId":359145,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking (BlackSeaCom)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129170300","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}

It acquires the ability to analyze the state of the entire system in real time to produce information and control processes in it. For splitting the cybernetic and ITC spaces, smart infrastructure is more vulnerable to security and safety threats than a static inter-computer network. This paper discusses an approach for detecting a specific safety threat, the false data injection (FDI), targeted at the smart infrastructures of such types as industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), smart buildings, e-hospitals, smart grids. This is a description of the proposed approach to identify the FDI attacks applying our new method that integrates a set of machine learning techniques. New approach has demonstrated 97% of accuracy at FDI prevention.","PeriodicalId":359145,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking (BlackSeaCom)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131144936","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}
