Lately application service providers (ASPs) and Internet (ISPs) are being confronted with the unprecedented challenge of accommodating increasing traffic demands from their geographically distributed users. Many ASPs ISPs, such as Facebook, Netflix, AT&T others have adopted micro-service architecture to tackle this problem. Instead building a single, monolithic application, idea is split into set smaller, interconnected services, called micro-services (or simply services). Such services...

Network slicing in 5G is expected to essentially change the way which network operators deploy and manage vertical services with different performance requirements. Efficient secure slice provisioning algorithms are important since slices share limited resources of physical network. In this article, we first analyze security issues formulate an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model for core provisioning. Then, propose a heuristic algorithm called VIKOR-CNSP based on VIKOR, multi-criteria...

Wireless communication advancements have significantly improved connectivity and user experience with each generation. The recent release of the framework M.2160 for upcoming sixth generation (6G or IMT-2030) cellular wireless standard by ITU-R has heightened expectations, particularly Internet Things (IoT) driven use cases. However, this progress introduces significant security risks, as technologies like O-RAN, terahertz communication, native AI pose threats such eavesdropping, supply...

Network function virtualization (NFV) over multi-cloud promises network service providers amazing flexibility in deployment and optimizing cost. Telecommunications applications are, however, sensitive to performance indicators, especially latency, which tend get degraded by both the multiple cloud requirement for widely distributed coverage. In this work we propose an efficient framework that uses novel concept of random selection combined with a support vector regression based predictive...

Recently, leading research communities have been investigating the use of blockchains for Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications, where multiple participants, or agents, collaborate to make consensus decisions. To achieve this, data in blockchain storage be transformed into knowledge. We refer these types as knowledge-based blockchains. Knowledge-based are potentially useful building efficient risk assessment applications. An earlier work introduced probabilistic which facilitates This...

Abstract With the enhancements in field of software‐defined networking and virtualization technologies, novel paradigms such as network function Internet Things are rapidly gaining ground. The development 5G networks explosion online services has resulted an exponential growth devices connected to network. As a result, application service providers being confronted with unprecedented challenge accommodating increasing traffic demands from geographically distributed users. To tackle this...

Carriers’ network services are distributed, dynamic, and investment intensive. Deploying them as virtual (VNS) brings the promise of low-cost agile deployments, which reduce time to market new services. If these hosted dynamically over multiple clouds, greater flexibility in optimizing performance cost can be achieved. On flip side, when orchestrated stringent norms for carrier become difficult meet, necessitating novel innovative placement strategies. In selecting appropriate combination...

A blockchain provides a securedparadigm to achieve consensus using distributed and peer-to-peer network in which no trusted central party is required. As result, it has the potential resolve many challenges that are faced with current centralized controllers globally applications. To date, technology been used for recording transactions tracking objects multiple participants reach on whether transaction valid or not. This paper introduces novel paradigm of probabilistic blockchains, an...

Inguinal hernia with vermiform appendix as content is known Amyand’s hernia. It a rare entity but we encountered four cases within six months. A 52-year-old female had high grade fever and evidence of inflammatory pathology involving the ileocaecal region. She was initially managed conservatively subsequently underwent exploratory laparatomy. The perforated herniating in inguinal canal. Appendectomy done herniorrhaphy without mesh placement. 74-year-old male bilateral hernia, which, right...

Efficient provisioning of 5G network slices is a major challenge for slicing technology. Previous slice methods have only considered resource attributes and ignored topology attributes. These may result in decrease the acceptance ratio revenue. To address these issues, we propose two-stage heuristic algorithm, called RT-CSP, core by jointly considering this paper. The first stage our method node stage, which an approach to scoring ranking nodes using (i.e., CPU capacity bandwidth) degree...
