To this end, we formulate an optimization problem to minimize the response time of offloaded tasks. Simulation results demonstrate that the mobility-aware task offloading scheme can reduce the response time by 14% $sim 21$% compared with the conventional task offloading schemes without any mobility-awareness.","PeriodicalId":6741,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN)","volume":"60 1","pages":"65-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83592095","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 the distributed energy management systems, while producing the energy from distributed users, there can be two types of users such that 1) users who have surplus energy generations and 2) users who lack energy generations compared to their demands. In this paper, to alleviate such imbalance of energy generation between distributed users, a peer to peer (P2P) based energy trading platform is proposed. Specifically, blockchain is one of emerging solutions in which transactions can be made reliably to achieve P2P transactions without any centralized broker intervention. Correspondingly, we implement the P2P energy trading platform under Ethereum’s smart contract for reliable trading. The energy generated from distributed users at the proposed platform can be traded by utilizing the characteristics of Decentralize Application. Specifically, we provide the details of implementations of the proposed platform, which includes both hardware platform and software platform. Further, we establish a web page and an mobile application for monitoring the transaction information such as transaction details and energy prices, which can enhance users’ accessibility. Finally, the demonstration of process of energy trading via web interface is represented.","PeriodicalId":6741,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN)","volume":"70 1","pages":"5-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83734944","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}

Alternatives to PBFT have not been tested in blockchain-based audit systems since no blockchain testbed supports the execution and benchmarking of different consensus protocols in a unified testing environment. In this paper, we address this gap by developing a blockchain testbed capable of executing and testing five consensus protocols in a blockchain network; namely PBFT, Proof-of-Work (PoW), Proof-of-Stake (PoS), Proof-of-Elapsed Time (PoET), and Clique. We carry out performance evaluation of those consensus algorithms using data from a real-world audit system. Our results show that the Clique protocol is best suited for blockchain-based audit systems, based on scalability features.","PeriodicalId":6741,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN)","volume":"49 1","pages":"654-656"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87612612","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 use of these protocols in online industries can dramatically improve the quality of online services. However, the central issue of concern when utilizing these types of systems is their accountability, which ensures trust between the parties involved in payment transactions. It is, therefore, vital for researchers to investigate how to handle the accountability of mobile payment protocols. In this research, we introduce a secure mobile payment protocol to overcome this problem. Our payment protocol combines all the necessary security features, such as confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and authorization that are required to build trust among parties. In other words, is the properties of mutual authentication and non-repudiation are ensured, thus providing accountability. Our approach can resolve any conflicts that may arise in payment transactions between parties. To prove that the proposed protocol is correct and complete, we use the Scyther and AVISPA tools to verify our approach formally.","PeriodicalId":6741,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN)","volume":"25 1","pages":"249-254"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80000002","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}

For actively and intelligently managing the charging towers, MADRL-based energy management system (EMS) is proposed and designed for energy trading among the energy storage systems those are equipped with charging towers. If the required energy for charging UAVs is not enough, the purchasing energy from utility company is desired which takes high consts.

In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey on network completion, which is a more challenging task than the well-studied low-rank matrix completion problem in the sense that a row and a column of an adjacency matrix shall be entirely unobservable when a node is completely missing from the given network. Specifically, we first define the problem of network completion. Then, we review two state-of-the-art algorithms for discovering the missing part of an underlying network, namely KronEM and DeepNC. We also show a performance comparison between the two algorithms via experimental evaluation. Finally, we discuss the potentials and limitations of the two algorithms.","PeriodicalId":6741,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN)","volume":"136 1","pages":"667-670"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75778800","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}

Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN) is a novel model as a potential solution using quantum computers to handle this problem. Quantum computers with a limited number of usable qubits needs a resource-efficient method to process large-scale data at once. In addition, Quantum Random Access Memory (QRAM) can store the large data to qubits logarithmically using superposition and entanglement. The QRAM algorithm can design a new QCNN model that can efficiently process in massive data.
