These devices have the built-in capacity to directly interact with the physical phenomenon and report any unusual situation within their respective coverage areas, i.e., monitoring a critical patient in the smart hospital but direct communication with a common destination module is not guaranteed and could possibly be very challenging if two or more devices, preferably those in closed proximity, are interested to transmit simultaneously. Therefore, in this manuscript, we are going to present a hybrid slot allocation approach, which is specifically designed for those devices resided in neighborhood and are eager to communication concurrently with a common destination device, i.e., server. In the beginning, the k-mean clustering algorithm is used to group these devices into clusters where server is forced to collect data from devices deployed in the respective coverage areas. Thus, every server generates dedicated slots for active devices and an additional slot for server(s). Similarly, the proposed neighborhood-enabled time division multiple access (TDMA) has the flexibility of assigning multiple slots to a requesting device if available, which is needed in scenarios, such as detection of pest in the field. Additionally, a member device is allowed to migrate (if needed and possible) from one server's coverage region to another. Simulation results confirmed that the proposed approach is better than the existing algorithms (opportunistic TDMA, hybrid TDMA, and non-orthogonal multiple access), particularly in terms of bandwidth, end-to-end delay, and empty slot utilization. The proposed scheme has improved bandwidth and empty slot utilization, which are approximately 15% and 12%, respectively, whereas it has achieved approximately 94.89% utilization of the available slots which was previously 93.4%.","PeriodicalId":510141,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Computer Science","volume":"35 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141800602","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 paper, we proposed a high-quality API to implement the continuous-in-time financial model. The existing discrete framework cannot be evaluated at any time period, involving drawbacks in operating the data structures. Then, the continuous framework is implemented based on the measure theory paradigm. Our proposal uses mathematical modeling, which consists of some objects as measures and fields. It is suitable to develop this API in C# to provide the requirement quality in programming language professionally. This also integrates demands, codes, and verification in the system development life cycle. The advantages are aimed at increasing the structuring and readability. The presented work provides an overview of the design, implementation, testing, and delivery aspects of the API, highlighting the importance of architecture, testing, and numerical choices. The article gives an overview of the API by describing the implementation concerning the data structures and algorithms. These algorithms are based on using the Task Parallel Library (TPL) that makes the API easier and more fruitful for data parallel to benefit from the advantages provided by the .NET Framework.","PeriodicalId":510141,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Computer Science","volume":"30 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141803544","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}

Ensuring efficient resource distribution in line with user-specified SLA and QoS demands novel scheduling solutions. This study scrutinizes contemporary Virtual Machine (VM) scheduling strategies, shedding light on the complexities and future prospects of VM design and aims to propel further research by highlighting existing obstacles and untapped potential in the ever-evolving realm of cloud and multi-access edge computing (MEC).Implementing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), this research dissects VM scheduling techniques. A meticulous selection process distilled 67 seminal studies from an initial corpus of 722, spanning from 2008 to 2022. This critical filtration has been pivotal for grasping the developmental trajectory and current tendencies in VM scheduling practices.The in-depth examination of 67 studies on VM scheduling has produced a taxonomic breakdown into three principal methodologies: traditional, heuristic, and meta-heuristic. The review underscores a marked shift toward heuristic and meta-heuristic methods, reflecting their growing significance in the advancement of VM scheduling.Although VM scheduling has progressed markedly, the focus remains predominantly on metaheuristic and heuristic approaches.

Thus, elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is a methodology that emerged to overcome this issue using its low computation and generation of small keys with its strong encryption strategy. ECC is becoming mandatory and used mostly for public key encryption protocols. ECC has expanded cumulative acceptance in practice due to the reduced bit magnitude of operands compared to RSA for safety level. Previously, protocols designed for ECC suggested calculation of scalar development and it was accomplished in finite fields as projective, affine, and Jacobian simulations of coordinates. Arithmetic operations in a limited area establish the core benefits of the ECC algorithm. Even though ECC generated an issue of complex key generation using its curve formation, to overcome this issue a hyperelliptic curve cryptosystems (HECC) is proposed in this study. HECC perform ECC in the Public Key Cryptography (PKC) domain. This study presented an optimization-based key generation and made a random selection of integers for encrypting the message. Selecting a prime number as the private key and multiplying it to the encrypted message to generate a public key is done. This encrypted message is mapped to the curve to check whether it satisfies the curve equation or not. Once an encrypted message is obtained, it is then sent to a second party for pursuing the message. On the side of the second party, a reverse process called decryption takes place. Thus, a secured transmission of data communication takes place. Implementing this algorithm in MATLAB resulted in 94% accuracy and an error of 6%, which was a higher performance ratio than previous methods.","PeriodicalId":510141,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Computer Science","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141678865","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 approaches the problem through a twofold methodology involving a systematic literature review exploring existing classifications and genres, and an exploratory survey gathering data on spontaneously recognized video games in Spain. The study utilizes quantitative data to create three lists of video games—most played globally, most representative internationally, and most significant in the Spanish market. The findings reveal complexities in comparing video game data and underscore the importance of comprehensive research frameworks. The study contributes valuable insights into video game recognition dynamics among users, addresses the scarcity of comparative research in the gaming field, revealing the subjective impact of globally recognized video games and highlighting the possible relations between industry trends, spontaneous recognition, and consumer preferences.","PeriodicalId":510141,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Computer Science","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141680378","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 light of this, new gaps have emerged in phishing detection, including the challenges and pitfalls of existing phishing detection techniques. To bridge these gaps, this study aims to develop a more robust, effective, sophisticated, and reliable solution for phishing detection through the optimal feature vectorization algorithm (OFVA) and supervised machine learning (SML) classifiers.Initially, the OFVA was utilized to extract the 41 optimal intra-URL features from a novel large dataset comprising 2,74,446 raw URLs (134,500 phishing and 139,946 legitimate URLs). Subsequently, data cleansing, curation, and dimensionality reduction were performed to remove outliers, handle missing values, and exclude less predictive features. To identify the optimal model, the study evaluated and compared 15 SML algorithms arising from different machine learning (ML) families, including Bayesian, nearest-neighbors, decision trees, neural networks, quadratic discriminant analysis, logistic regression, bagging, boosting, random forests, and ensembles. The evaluation was performed based on various metrics such as confusion matrix, accuracy, precision, recall, F-1 score, ROC curve, and precision-recall curve analysis. Furthermore, hyperparameter tuning (using Grid-search) and k-fold cross-validation were performed to optimize the detection accuracy.The findings indicate that random forests (RF) outperformed the other classifiers, achieving a greater accuracy rate of 97.52%, followed by 97.50% precision, and an AUC value of 97%. Finally, a more robust and lightweight anti-phishing model was introduced, which can serve as an effective tool for security experts, practitioners, and policymakers to combat phishing attacks.","PeriodicalId":510141,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Computer Science","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141686994","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 research then offers a complete review and assessment of IoT reliability. In this paper, various types of reliability on the IoT have been analyzed with each layer of IoT to solve the issues of failure rates, latency, MTTF, and MTBF. Each parameter has a certain classification and perception as well as enhancement in efficiency, accuracy, precision, timeliness, and completeness. Reliability models provide efficient solutions for different IoT problems, which are mirrored in the proposed study and classified with four types of reliabilities.
