A SURVEY ON OPPORTUNISTIC ROUTING PROTOCOLS IN CELLULAR NETWORK FOR MOBILE DA...ijwmn
Currently cellular networks are overloaded, due to rapid growth of various smartphone applications. With
the arrival of 3G and 4G network technologies mobile data traffic has been growing at an unprecedented
pace and increasingly surpassing the network capacity. Mobile data offloading is an effective network
congestion demotion approach to solve the overload issue through opportunistic communication. It is a
beneficiary approach, because there is no monetary cost for it. Subscribe Send Architecture and
Opportunistic forwarding protocol plays a vital role during offloading by allowing users to subscribe the
contents but does not download the subscribed content on the Content Service Provider thereby network
traffic reduces up to a greater extent. A quantitative study on performance evaluation of opportunistic
routing protocols like Epidemic, Spray and Wait, ProPhet and MaxProp are discussed in this paper. We
have compared these protocols based on few performance metrics like overhead ratio, delivery probability
and average latency. Our simulation results verify that MaxProp performs well and can offload cellular
traffic effectively.
Long term evolution (LTE) is replacing the 3G services slowly but steadily and become a preferred choice
for data for human to human (H2H) services and now it is becoming preferred choice for voice also. In
some developed countries the traditional 2G services gradually decommissioned from the service and
getting replaced with LTE for all H2H services. LTE provided high downlink and uplink bandwidth
capacity and is one of the technology like mobile ad hoc network (MANET) and vehicular ad hoc network
(VANET) being used as the backbone communication infrastructure for vehicle networking applications.
When Compared to VANET and MANET, LTE provides wide area of coverage and excellent infrastructure
facilities for vehicle networking. This helps in transmitting the vehicle information to the operator and
downloading certain information into the vehicle nodes (VNs) from the operators server. As per the ETSI
publications the number of machine to machine communication (MTC) devices are expected to touch 50
billion by 2020 and this will surpass H2H communication. With growing congestion in the LTE network,
accessing the network for any request from VN especially during peak hour is a big challenge because of
the congestion in random access channel (RACH). In this paper we will analyse this RACH congestion
problem with the data from the live network. Lot of algorithms are proposed for resolving the RACH
congestion on the basis of simulation results so we would like to present some practical data from the live
network to this issue to understand the extent RACH congestion issue in the real time scenario.
This document summarizes a research paper on 5G technology for mobile communication.

Tracing of voip traffic in the rapid flow internet backboneeSAT Journals
Abstract
VoIP traffic application gaining a terrific admiration in the recent couple of years. VoIP Traffic Classification has concerned for network management and it comes to be more complicating because of modern applications behaviors and it has attracted the research community to develop and propose various classification techniques which don’t depend on ‘well known UDP or TCP port numbers. To overcome the problem of unknown flow classification and achieve effective network classification, a new innovative novel work called Multi Stage Fine-Grained classifier is proposed in this research for classifying the VoIP traffic flow with high accurate classification. The datasets of VoIP network traffic measurements taken from our campus WI-FI and the experimental results shows that the proposed work outstrips the existing approaches in the Rapid flow Internet Backbone. Without investigate the packet payloads, our proposed Fine-Grained classifier effectively classifies the Peer-to-Peer encrypted traffic in the real time network. Our experimental results shows high accuracy and small error rate in classifying the Peer-to-Peer network traffic.

Message queue telemetry transport and lightweight machine-tomachine comparis...IJECEIAES
Internet of things (IoT) is been advancing over a long period of time in many aspects. For data transfer between IoT devices in a wireless sensor network, various IoT protocols are proposed. Among them, the most widely used are constrained application protocol (CoAP) and message queue telemetry transport (MQTT). Overcoming the limitations of CoAP, lightweight machine-to-machine (LwM2M) framework was designed above CoAP. Recent statistics show that LwM2M and MQTT are the widely used, but LwM2M is still less used than MQTT. Our paper is aimed at comparing both MQTT and LwM2M on the basis of performance efficiency, which will be achieved by sending same file through both protocols to the server. Performance efficiency will be calculated in two scenarios, i) when the client makes a connection with the server i.e., while initial connection and ii) while sending data file to server i.e., while data transfer. Both the protocols will be tested on the number of packets sent and the variability of packet size throughout the session. Experimental results indicated that LwM2M outperformed MQTT in both above scenarios by almost 69%. Therefore, we concluded by stating that LwM2M is best choice over MQTT, but MQTT can still be used in some situations if necessary.
Performance Analysis of Internet of Things Protocols Based Fog/Cloud over Hig...Istabraq M. Al-Joboury
The Internet of Things (IoT) becomes the future of a global data field in which the embedded devices communicate with each other, exchange data and making decisions through the Internet. IoT could improves the qualityoflife in smart cities, but a massive amount of data from different smart devices could slow down or crash database systems. In addition, IoT data transfer to Cloud for monitoring information and generating feedback thus will lead to highdelay in infrastructure level. Fog Computing can help by offering services closer to edge devices. In this paper, we propose an efficient system architecture to mitigate the problem of delay. We provide performance analysis like responsetime, throughput and packet loss for MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport) and HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) protocols based on Cloud or Fog serverswith large volume of data form emulated traffic generator working alongsidewith one real sensor. We implement both protocols in the same architecture, with low cost embedded devices to local and Cloud servers with different platforms. The results show that HTTP response time is 12.1 and 4.76 times higher than MQTT Fog and cloud based located in the same geographical area of the sensors respectively. The worst case in performance is observed when the Cloud is public and outside the country region. The results obtained for throughput shows that MQTT has the capability to carry the data with available bandwidth and lowest percentage of packet loss. We also prove that the proposed Fog architecture is an efficient way to reduce latency and enhance performance in Cloud based IoT.

Internet messengers and social networks have become an integral part of modern digital life. We have in mind not only the interaction between individual users but also a variety of applications that exist in these applications. Typically, applications for social networks use the universal login system and rely on data from social networks. Also, such applications are likely to get more traction when they are inside of the big social network like Facebook. At the same time, less attention is paid to communication capabilities of social networks. In this paper, we target Twitter as a messaging system at the first hand. We describe the way information systems can use Twitter as a transport layer for own services. Our work introduces a programmable service called 411 for Twitter, which supports user-defined and application-specific commands through tweets.
In this paper, we discuss one approach for development and deployment of web sites (web pages) devoted to the description of objects (events) with a precisely delineated geographic scope.

The accuracy of such a binding allows us to distinguish individual areas within the same indoor space. Target areas for such development are applications for Smart Cities and retail.
This paper discusses the issues of data representation for one model of context-aware services. This model is based on network proximity ideas. For network proximity, the location information (latitude, longitude) is replaced with information about proximity to network nodes. Network nodes play a role of tags and let position the users within some restricted area. In this paper, we target wireless networks nodes (Wi-Fi access points, Bluetooth nodes). Services for such models provide to mobile subscribers access to certain information, depending on availability (presence) of wireless networks. And another option is a publication by mobile users context-sensitive information associated with wireless networks. In our paper, we discuss key-value data store deployment as a basic persistence mechanism for network proximity. Also, we provide a description for system-wide cache on the base of Bloom filter.
Data persistence for time series is an old and in many cases traditional task for databases. In general, the time series is just a sequence of data elements. The typical use case is a set of measurements made over a time interval. Much of the data generated by sensors, in a machine to machine communication, in Internet of Things area could be collected as time series. Time series are used in statistics, mathematical and finance. In this paper, we provide a survey of data persistence solutions for time series data. The paper covers the traditional relational databases, as well as NoSQL-based solutions for time series data.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Part 3. On M2M API standards
Part 4. EU-Russia Partnership for Modernization
3. M2M communications industry forecast
Analysys Mason forecasts that the number of M2M device
worldwide connections will grow from 62 million in 2010 to 2.1
billion devices in 2020, at a 36% year-on-year growth rate.
Over 90 percent of forecast connections will utilize wireless.
4. Part 1. EC Standardization mandate M/441
Considering M2M communications as a central point of Future
Internet, European Commission creates standardization mandate
M/441.
The mandate M/441, issued in 2009 to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI,
in the field of measuring instruments for the development of an open
architecture for utility meters (water, gas, electricity, heat), involving
communication protocols enabling interoperability, is a major
development in shaping the future European standards for smart
metering and Advanced Metering Infrastructures.
5. M2M system consists of three main domains
M2M Area Network: between M2M Devices and M2M Gateway.
Examples: ZigBee, Bluetooth; M-BUS, Wireless M-BUS.
M2M Application (Server): middleware layer where data goes
through the various application services.

9. Part 3. On M2M API standards
The Open API for M2M applications are developed jointly in
Eurescom study P1957 and the EU FP7 SENSEI project.
Actually, in this Open API we can see the big influence of Parlay
specification (so called Parlay/OSA API), to open up the networks
by defining, establishing, and supporting a common industry-
standard APIs.
Parlay Group also specifies the Parlay Web services API, known
as Parlay X API, which is much simpler than Parlay/OSA API to
enable IT developers to use it without network expertise.
10. Activities on M2M API standards
Besides ETSI standards we should mention other participants too.
3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) has issued a number of
specifications dealing with requirements that M2M services and M2M
communication imposes on the mobile network.

ITU-T covers the issue of M2M communication via the special Ubiquitous
Sensor Networks-related groups (the area of networked intelligent sensors).
Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) develops mobile service enabler specifications.
OMA drives service enabler architectures and open enabler interfaces that are
independent of the underlying wireless networks and platforms.
11. Main Open API categories (1)
Grouping
A group here is defined as a common set of attributes (data elements) shared between
member elements. On practice it is about the definition of addressable and
exchangeable data sets. Just note, as it is important for our future suggestions,
there are no persistence mechanisms for groups
Transactions
Service capability features and their service primitives optionally include a
transaction ID in order to allow relevant service capabilities to be part of a transaction.
In the terms of transactions management Open API presents the classical 2-phase
commit model. By the way, we should note here that this model practically does
not work in the large-scale web applications. We think it is very important because
without scalability we can not think about “billions of connected devices”.
Application Interaction
The application interaction part is added in order to support development of simple
M2M applications with only minor application specific data definitions: readings,
observations and commands.
12. Main Open API categories (2)
Messaging
The message modes are single Object messaging, Object group messaging,
and any object messaging. Think about this as Message Broker.
Event notification and presence
Compensation
Fair and flexible compensation schemes between cooperating and competing parties
are required to correlate resource consumption and cost, e.g. in order to avoid
anomalous resource consumption. Similar to Parlay’s offering for Charging API.
Sessions
A session shall be understood to represent the state of active communication between
Connected Objects. OpenAPI is REST based, so, the endpoints should be presented as
some URI’s capable to accept the basic commands GET, POST, PUT, DELETE.
13. Web Intents vs. Open API from ETSI
It is almost impossible for developers to anticipate every new
service and to integrate with every existing external service.
Our goal is to propose the proposal for some new additions in
M2M APIs architecture. Namely, to propose web intents as add-
on for the more traditional REST approach in order to simplify
the development phases for M2M applications.
The key moments here are:
• JSON versus XML,
• asynchronous communications and
• integrated calls.
14. Web Intents solves this problem
Services register their intention to be able to handle an action on
the user's behalf.
Applications request to start an action of a certain verb (for
example share, edit, view, pick etc.) and the system will find the
appropriate services for the user to use based on the user's
preference.
Intents play the very important role in Android Architecture.

16. Data persistence (discussion)
We need to save the data somewhere (for the future processing).
Why there is no reference API for persistence layer in the unified M2M API?
It is possible in general to create data gathering API without even mentioning
data persistence?
Shall we define cloud database API as a part of M2M standard or not? Once
transmitted to the cloud, data can be stored, retrieved and processed without
Having to address many of the underlying computing resources and processes
traditionally associated with databases.
For M2M applications, this type of virtualized data storage service is ideal.
It looks like NoSQL solutions are perfect fit for M2M applications.
17. New signaling demand
Eventually, billions of devices — such as sensors, consumer electronic devices,
smart phones, PDAs and computers —will generate billions of M2M
transactions. Signaling traffic will be the primary bottleneck.
According to Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs traffic modeling studies, the limiting
factor is likely to be the number of session set-ups and tear-downs. In the study,
up to 67 percent of computing resources in the radio network controller is
consumed by M2M apps.
Simply – we need the confirmation that device is alive, that operation has been
performed, etc. All this is signaling traffic.
18. Part 4. EU-Russia Partnership for Modernization
At the 25th EU-Russia Summit in May 2010, the two sides officially launched
the Partnership for Modernization program.
Priority areas:
1) expanding opportunities for investment in key sectors driving growth and
innovation, enhancing and deepening bilateral trade and economic relations,
and promoting small and medium sized enterprises;
2) promoting alignment of technical regulations and standards,
3) improving transport;
4) promoting a sustainable low-carbon economy and energy efficiency, etc.
