At the same time, Information-Centric Networks (ICNs) influence the search for information through network caching and multipart communication. Moreover, these projects are developed to solve traffic problems and have content transfer through a scalable network structure with simple management. The SDN covers ICNs, besides decoupling the control to allow flexibility of network settings to reduce overhead of segments. Based on this information, an architecture was designed to provide reliable content that can be replicated in the network. The ICN architecture proposed stores information through a logical volume to the next access, enabling connection with remote controllers for reliable storage in cloud environments. The cache efficiency achieved almost 50% reduction of time response, in addition, there was improvement around 10% when the number of parallel requests was increased.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The recent development of Amazon's EC2 spot market shows that dynamic cloud markets are gaining popularity. Hence, autonomous multi-round bilateral negotiations, also known as bazaar negotiations, are a promising approach for trading cloud services on future cloud markets. They play a vital role for composing service chains. Based on a formal description we describe such service chains and derive different negotiation types. We implement them in a simulation environment and evaluate our approach by executing different market scenarios. Therefore, we developed three negotiation strategies for cloud resellers. Our simulation results show that cloud resellers as well as their negotiation strategies have a significant impact on the resource allocation of cloud markets. Very high as well as very low mark-ups reduce the profit of a reseller.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Grid Util.

In many cases, these events are caused by a change or an incident in a resource which belongs to another layer of information technology architecture. This makes the detection of complex events very difficult. In this paper, a mechanism is proposed based on pheromone deposition pattern for detecting the main source of failures and deficiencies in any position in the information technology architectural layers and recognising appropriate alternative solutions. It is expected that this mechanism facilitates the coordination between the resources which are not digitally represented. For sake of evaluation, two case studies are considered which investigate the inter-layer adaptation scenarios. The results show that the adaptation process can be done in less time and with more scalability with utilisation of the proposed mechanism in comparison with classic approaches.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Although lots of research has been focused on descriptor-based FER still different problems have to be solved regarding noise, recognition rate, time and error rates. The Japanese Female Facial Expression (JAFFE) data sets help to make FER more reliable and efficient as pixels are distributed uniformly. The proposed system introduces novel geometric features to extract important features from the images and layered Hidden Markov Model (HMM) as a classifier. The layered HMM is used to recognised seven facial expressions i.e., anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise and neutral. The proposed framework is compared with existing systems where the proposed framework proves its superiority with the recognition rate of 84.7% with the others 85%. Our proposed framework is also tested in terms of recognition rates, processing time and error rates and found its best accuracy with the other existing systems.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

A new model of bi-matrix game with uncertain payoffs is established and its equivalent strategy is given. Then, we develop an expected model of uncertain bi-matrix games and define the uncertain equilibrium strategy of uncertain bi-matrix games.

NSP is an NP-hard problem which subjects to a set of hard and soft constraints. Such problems can be solved by optimisation algorithms efficiently such as meta-heuristic algorithms. In this paper, we enhanced one of the most recent meta-heuristic algorithms which is called Jaya for solving the NSP. The enhanced algorithm is called EJNSP (Enhanced Jaya for Nurse Scheduling Problem). EJNSP focuses on maximising the nurses' preferences about shift requests and minimising the under- and over-staffing. EJNSP has two main strategies. First, it randomly generates an initial effective scheduling that satisfies a set of constraints. Second, it uses swap operators in order to satisfy the set of soft constraints to achieve an effective scheduling. A set of experiments have been applied to a set of the benchmark dataset with different numbers of nurses and shifts. The experimental results demonstrated that EJNSP algorithm achieved effective results for solving NSP in order to minimise the under- and over-staffing and satisfy the nurses' preferences.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

In this strategy, when a user requests a content item, he/she can get it from the network by retrieving the other version of the content item and the difference from the requested version, if the obtaining cost of the requested version is expensive. This way of content sharing can be expected to accomplish effective and flexible operation. Furthermore, efficient utilisation of a peer's storage capacity is achieved by splitting each replica of a content item into several small blocks and storing them separately in the plural peers.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Despite the advances in this technology, there are some challenges including lack of enough data and invariant templates to the rotation, illumination, and translation. In this paper, we provide two mobile palmprint databases and we can address the aforementioned challenges via deep convolutional neural networks. In the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first study in which mobile palmprint images were acquired in some special views and then were evaluated via deep learning training algorithms. To evaluate our mobile palmprint images, some well-known convolutional neural networks are applied for verification task. By using these networks, the best performing results are achieved via GoogLeNet and CNN-F architectures in terms of cost of the training phase and classification accuracy of the test phase obtained in the 1-to-1 matching procedure.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

These solutions minimise the execution time of workflows, however may result in severe load imbalance among Virtual Machines (VMs) in cloud data centres. Cloud vendors desire the proper utilisation of all the VMs in the data centres to have efficient performance of overall system. Thus, load balancing of VMs becomes an important aspect while scheduling tasks in cloud environment. In this paper, we propose an approach based on Intelligent Water Drops (IWD) algorithm to minimise the execution time of workflows while balancing the resource utilisation of VMs in cloud computing environment. The proposed approach is compared with a variety of well-known heuristic and meta-heuristic techniques using three real-time scientific workflows, and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs better than these existing techniques in terms of makespan and load balancing.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.

For these limitations, fog computing, in which the primary processing of sensor data is performed at the fog node, and only the results are transferred to the cloud server, has been proposed. However, in this method, when the original sensor data are necessary for the analysis in the cloud server, the data are missing. For this problem, I propose a data model, in which the original sensor data are stored at the fog node with a distributed database. Furthermore, the performance of this data model is evaluated, showing the original data reference from the cloud server can be executed efficiently, particularly in the case of installing multiple fog nodes.","PeriodicalId":375871,"journal":{"name":"Int.
