Show moreEpilepsy is a multifaceted neurological disorder characterized by superfluous and recurrent seizure activity. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are indispensable tools for epilepsy diagnosis that reflect real-time insights of brain activity. Recently, epilepsy researchers have increasingly utilized Deep Learning (DL) architectures for early and timely diagnosis. This research focuses on resolving the challenges, such as data diversity, scarcity, limited labels, and privacy, by proposing potential contributions for epilepsy detection, prediction, and forecasting tasks without impacting the accuracy of the outcome. The proposed design of diversity-enhanced data augmentation initially averts data scarcity and inter-patient variability constraints for multiclass epilepsy detection. The potential features are extracted using a graph theory-based approach by analyzing the inherently dynamic characteristics of augmented EEG data. It utilizes a novel temporal weight fluctuation method to recognize the drastic temporal fluctuations and data patterns realized in EEG signals. Designing the Siamese neural network-based few-shot learning strategy offers a robust framework for multiclass epilepsy detection.

Show moreThe Internet of Things (IoT) has undergone remarkable expansion in recent years, leading to a proliferation of devices capable of connecting to the internet, collecting data, and sharing information. However, this rapid growth has also introduced a myriad of security challenges, resulting in an uptick in cyber-attacks targeting IoT infrastructures. To mitigate these threats and ensure the integrity of data, researchers have been actively engaged in the development of robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) utilizing various machine learning (ML) techniques. This dissertation presents a comprehensive overview of three distinct approaches toward IoT intrusion detection, each leveraging ML methodologies to enhance security measures. The first approach focuses on a multi-class classification algorithm, integrating models such as random forest, logistic regression (LR), decision tree (DT), and Xgboost. Through meticulous evaluation utilizing evaluation metrics including F1 score, recall, and precision under the Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve, this approach demonstrates a remarkable 99 % accuracy in detecting IoT attacks. In the second approach, a deep ensemble model comprising Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) architectures is proposed for intrusion detection in IoT environments. Evaluation on the UNSW 2018 IoT Botnet dataset showcases the proficiency of this approach, achieving an accuracy of 98.4 % in identifying malicious activities. Lastly, the dissertation explores a real-time Intrusion Detection System (IDS) framework deployed within the Pyspark architecture, aimed at efficiently detecting IoT attacks while minimizing detection time.

Show moreThe growing demand for faster connection to the Internet service and wireless multimedia applications has motivated the development of broadband wireless access technologies in recent years. WiMAX has enabled convergence of mobile and fixed broadband networks through a common wide-area radio-access technology and flexible network architecture. Scheduling is a fundamental component in resource management in WiMAX networks and plays the main role in meeting QoS requirements such as delay, throughput and packet loss for different classes of service. In this dissertation work, the performance of uplink schedulers at the fixed WiMAX MAC layer has been considered, we proposed an Adaptive Hierarchical Weighted Fair Queuing Scheduling algorithm, the new scheduling algorithm adapts to changes in traffic, at the same time; it is able to heuristically enhance the performance of WiMAX network under most circumstances. The heuristic nature of this scheduling algorithm enables the MAC layer to meet the QoS requirements of the users. The performance of this adaptive WiMAX Uplink algorithm has been evaluated by simulation using MATLAB. Results indicate that the algorithm is efficient in scheduling the Base Stations’ traffic loads, and improves QoS. The utilization of relay stations is studied and simulation results are compared with the case without using relay stations. The results show that the proposed scheduling algorithm improves Quality of Service of WiMAX system.

Show moreIn recent years, many protocols for efficient Multicasting have been proposed. However, many of the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are reluctant to use multicastenabled routers in their networks. To provide such incentives, new protocols are needed to improve the quality of their services. The challenge is to find a compromise between allocating Bandwidth (BW) among different flows in a fair manner, and favoring multicast sessions over unicast sessions. In addition, the overall higher level of receiver satisfaction should be achieved. In this dissertation, we propose three new innovative protocols to favor multicast sessions over unicast sessions. Multicast Favored BW Allocation- Logarithmic (MFBA-Log) and Multicast Favored BW Allocation-Linear (MFBALin) protocols allocate BW proportional to the number of down stream receivers. The proposed Multicast Reserved BW Allocation (MRBA) protocol allocates part of the BW in the links only to multicast sessions. Simulation results show the increase in the overall level of Receiver Satisfaction in the network.

Show moreExisting MANET routing protocols can be classified into three categories: On-demand, Proactive, and Proactive-On-demand hybrid protocols. This dissertation presents a novel hybrid MANET routing protocol, Adaptive On-demand MANET Routing (AOMAR) protocol. AOMAR borrowed the concepts of temporal location updates in operating systems and cache memories to reconstruct broken routes. Each route entry in a mobile host will have a reference field that is set to indicate whether the route is used within a certain period of time called refresh time. Using the refresh time parameter and the route reference field, AOMAR behavior can be controlled to behave as pure On-demand, Adaptive, or history related Proactive protocol. The three versions of AOMAR, On-demand, Adaptive and Proactive, have been simulated using different network sizes, loads and mobility patterns. Three performance metrics---throughput, delay and overhead---are collected. The results show that AOMAR on-demand has the same pattern of results when compared with other exiting on-demand protocols. On-demand AOMAR shows better performance when compared to Adaptive AOMAR for simulation sessions with uniform workloads. On the other hand Adaptive AOMAR outperforms On-demand AOMAR for simulation sessions with non-uniform workloads. Proactive AOMAR reconstructs recently used routes that have broken. Therefore, its routing overhead results change with the change of the network loads and mobility rates. This is not the case for traditional proactive protocols. Proactive AOMAR has lower control overhead and saves the bandwidth when compared with traditional existing proactive routing protocols. In addition to developing and simulating AOMAR, a new mobility model is proposed. Synchronized Random Direction Model of Motion with Constant Speed (SRDMCS) is a model that is suitable to emulate objects that move in random directions with a constant speed and within a certain area of movement. A new formula, Movement Related Update (MRU), is proposed and implemented. In MRU, the refresh period parameter value is linked to the network mobility level. Using MRU in the simulation gives AOMAR a third dimension such that the protocol not only adapts with how frequently the routes are used and how frequently they are broken, but also with how dynamic the network is.

A new management architecture, "Web Integrated Network for Distributed Management Including Logic" (WINDMIL), is proposed to address the challenges of managing complex heterogeneous networks. The three primary components of the system are the Network Management Server (NMS), the Network Element Web Server (NEWS), and the Operator's Logic and Processing Platform (OLAPP). The NMS stores the management functions used by both the NEWS and the user. The NEWS is a Web server which collects and processes network element data in order to support management functions. The OLAPP executes the management functions and interfaces with the user.

Simulation results indicate that increasing message segmentation threshold will increase the network traffic intensity and consequently the total packet delay. Simulation and analytical results for total packet delay compared well only at low traffic intensities. At higher traffic intensities the discrepancy is due to the Independence Assumption since it does not account for the increasing dependency of interarrival times and service times as packets are made to wait at the nodes.

Show moreRapid advances in technology have resulted in the evolution of Integrated Services Digital Networks (ISDNs) to Broadband ISDNs (BISDNs). This thesis discusses and evaluates the performance of a high speed and high capacity packet switching system architecture for BISDNs. This system supports various high speed communication services like data, voice, and video services. The main performance criterion is the mean switching delay, which is defined as the packet transfer delay through the bus and through the loop connecting various switch modules in the system. Other performance criteria are power and system throughput. The performance parameters are evaluated separately for both data and control (signaling) packets. The effects of the number of switch modules in the system, the data packet length, and the ratio of arrival rate of data to control packets are examined. It is observed that the switching delay and throughput increase with an increase in the traffic intensity for any number of switching modules and the ratio of arrival rate of data to control packets. The delay for data packets is found to be higher for lower values of this ratio and vice versa. The power is found to be maximum for about 70% load. The switching delay in this simulation model is found to be less than one millisecond for data packets.

Show moreMultimedia applications incorporate the use of more than one type of media, i.e., voice, video, data, text and image. With the advances in high-speed communication, the ability to transmit multimedia is becoming widely available. One of the means of transport for multimedia in distributed networks is Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN). B-ISDN supports the transport of large volumes of data with a low error rate. It also handles the burstiness of multimedia traffic by providing dynamic bandwidth allocation. When multimedia is requested for transport in a distributed network, different Quality of Service (QOS) may be required for each type of media. For example, video can withstand more errors than voice. In order to provide, the most efficient form of transfer, different QOS media are sent using different channels. By using different channels for transport, jitter can impose skews on the temporal relations between the media. Jitter is caused by errors and buffering delays. Since B-ISDN uses Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) as its transfer mode, the jitter that is incurred can be assumed to be bounded if traffic management principles such as admission control and resource reservation are employed. Another network that can assume bounded buffering is the 16 Mbps token-ring LAN when the LAN Server (LS) Ultimedia(TM) software is applied over the OS/2 LAN Server(TM) (using OS/2(TM)). LS Ultimedia(TM) reserves critical resources such as disk, server processor, and network resources for multimedia use. In addition, it also enforces admission control(1). Since jitter is bounded on the networks chosen, buffers can be used to realign the temporal relations in the media. This dissertation presents a solution to this problem by proposing a Feedback-based Multimedia Synchronization Technique (FMST) to correct and compensate for the jitter that is incurred when media are received over high speed communication channels and played back in real time. FMST has been implemented at the session layer for the playback of the streams. A personal computer was used to perform their synchronized playback from a 16 Mbps token-ring and from a simulated B-ISDN network.
