Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) have greatly contributed to many applications. A CPS is capable of integrating physical and computational capabilities to interact with individuals through various new modalities. However, there is a need for such a paradigm to focus on the human central nervous system to provide faster data access. This paper introduces the CPS paradigm that consists of CPS enabled human brain monitoring (CPS-HBM) and efficient data-balancing for CPS (EDB-CPS). The CPS-HBM provides architectural support to make an efficient and secure transfer and storage of the sensed data over fog cloud computing. The CPS-HBM consists of four components: physical domain and data processing (PDDP), brain sensor network (BSN), Service-oriented architecture (SOA), and data management domain (DMD). The EDB-CPS module aims to balance data flow for obtaining better throughput and lower hop-to-hop delay. The EDB-CPS accomplishes the goal by employing three processes: A node advertisement (NA), A node selection and recruitment (NSR), and optimal distance determination with mid-point (ODDMP). The processes of the EDB-CPS are performed on the PDDP of the CPS-HBM module. Thus, to determine the validity of EDB-CPS, the paradigm was programmed with C++ and implemented on a network simulator-3 (NS3). Finally, the performance of the proposed EDB-CPS was compared with state-of-the-art methods in terms of hop-to-hop delay and throughput. The proposed EDB-CPS produced better throughput between 443.2–445.2 KB/s and 0.05–0.078 ms hop-to-hop delay.

Σκοπός της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής ήταν η σχεδίαση-υλοποίηση, προσομοίωση και μοντελοποίηση ασύρματων δικτύων αισθητήρων (ΑΔΑ) που βασίζονται στην αρχιτεκτονική IPv6 over low power wireless personal area networks (6LoWPAN) και υποστηρίζουν υπηρεσίες ιστού (web services) όπως επίσης και η υλοποίηση καινούριων τέτοιων υπηρεσιών καταλληλότερων για εφαρμογή στα προαναφερθέντα ΑΔΑ. Λόγω της έλλειψης που παρατηρείται στην παροχή εργαλείων για την εκπλήρωση του παραπάνω στόχου, αναπτύχθηκε ένα πειραματικό ΑΔΑ και ένα εργαλείο προσομοιωτικών μετρήσεων της επίδρασης των υπηρεσιών ιστού σε 6LoWPAN ΑΔΑ καθώς επίσης και ένα μαθηματικό μοντέλο για την μελέτη του πρωτοκόλλου ελέγχου προσπέλασης στο μέσο μετάδοσης (MAC) αυτών των δικτύων. Το προτεινόμενο MAC πρωτόκολλο για την 6LoWPAN αρχιτεκτονική είναι o χωρίς σχισμή (unslotted) CSMA/CA μηχανισμός του ΙΕΕΕ 802.15.4 προτύπου. Στα πλαίσια της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής υλοποιήθηκε μια καινούρια στοίβα πρωτοκόλλων για υπηρεσίες ιστού η οποία ονομάστηκε Tiny service oriented architecture for wireless sensors (SOAWS). Το Tiny SOAWS προσφέρει μειωμένη κατανάλωση μνήμης, μειωμένο χρόνο εκτέλεσης καθώς επίσης και μειωμένα μεγέθη ανταλλασσόμενων μηνυμάτων σε σχέση με το πρότυπο device profile for web services (DPWS) το οποίο δημιουργήθηκε για την απευθείας ενσωμάτωση των υπηρεσιών ιστού σε συσκευές. Επίσης, το Tiny SOAWS υποστηρίζει την δημιουργία υπηρεσιών ιστού πάνω σε ασύρματους αισθητήρες που έχουν την ίδια σημασιολογία με τις αντίστοιχες υπηρεσίες ιστού του DPWS. Εκτός τούτου, υποστηρίζει μία καινούρια φόρμα μηνυμάτων, η οποία στηρίζεται στην extensible markup language (XML) όπως και η φόρμα μηνυμάτων του DPWS. Τα Tiny SOAWS και DPWS υλοποιήθηκαν πάνω σε πραγματικούς ασύρματους αισθητήρες και συγκρίθηκαν μεταξύ τους χρησιμοποιώντας το αναπτυχθέν πειραματικό ΑΔΑ το οποίο είναι αποτελεί ένα πραγματικό 6LoWPAN ΑΔΑ με τον μέγιστο αριθμό των ασύρματων αισθητήρων του να είναι 12. Με σκοπό την επικύρωση των παραπάνω μετρήσεων, την επέκτασή τους σε μεγαλύτερης κλίμακας ΑΔΑ καθώς επίσης και τη σύγκρισης των 2 προαναφερθέντων στοιβών πρωτοκόλλων με ένα DPWS βασισμένο σε δυαδική κωδικοποίηση (binary-based DPWS), χρησιμοποιήθηκε το αναπτυχθέν εργαλείο προσομοίωσης το οποίο υλοποιήθηκε στον προσομοιωτή network simulator (NS)-2. Επιβεβαιώθηκε η ορθή λειτουργία του πειραματικού ΑΔΑ και του εργαλείου προσομοίωσης συγκρίνοντας τις μετρήσεις του ενός με τις μετρήσεις του άλλου. Το γεγονός αυτό επιτρέπει τη χρήση τους για την αξιολόγηση και σχεδίαση 6LoWPAN ΑΔΑ που υποστηρίζουν υπηρεσίες ιστού. Επιπλέον, η σύγκριση έδειξε ότι το Tiny SOAWS υπερτερεί του DPWS. Ωστόσο, το binary-based DPWS αποτελεί την καλύτερη επιλογή. Παρόλα αυτά, η εφαρμογή του περιορίζεται σε ασύρματους αισθητήρες με συγκεκριμένο λογισμικό καθώς το σύνολο των κανόνων της XML στο οποίο στηρίζονται οι υπηρεσίες ιστού για να προσφέρουν διαλειτουργικότητα στο επίπεδο εφαρμογής δεν χρησιμοποιείται πλέον. Τέλος, οι προβλέψεις του αναπτυχθέντος μαθηματικού μοντέλου για τον unslotted μηχανισμό του MAC υπο-επιπέδου του ΙΕΕΕ 802.15.4 προτύπου συγκρίθηκαν με μετρήσεις από τον NS-2 και βρέθηκε ότι αποκλίνουν ελάχιστα. Ως εκ τούτου, μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί ως εργαλείο αξιολόγησης της σχεδίασης ΑΔΑ τα οποία μπορούν μετέπειτα να υποστηρίξουν την 6LoWPAN αρχιτεκτονική καθώς επίσης και υπηρεσίες ιστού.

The Internet has become the most important medium for information exchange and the core communication environment for business relations as well as for social interactions. The current internet architecture itself might become the limiting factor of Internet growth and deployment of new applications including 5G and future internet. Architectural limitations of internet include weak security, lack of efficient storage and caching, data distribution and traceability issues, lack of interoperability and so on. The proposed system overcomes these limitations by an alternate architecture for internet called NovaGenesis. This architecture integrates the concepts of Information Centric Networking (ICN), Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), network caching and name based routing. ICN evolve internet from a host-centric model to a content-centric model through efficient data exchange, storage and processing. SOA enables software-control/management of network devices based on service requirements. Network caching improves performance in terms of throughput, network traffic and retrieval delay. Name based routing is for discovering and delivering of data. The framework proposed increases the scalability and reliability of the delivery of IoT data for services.

Security is one of the largest challenges facing the development of a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). This is due to the fact that SOA security is the responsibility of both the service consumer and service provider. In recent years, many solutions have been implemented, such as the Web Services Security Standards, including WS-Security and WS-SecurityPolicy. However, those standards are insufficient for the promising new generations of Web 2.0 applications. In this research, we describe an Intelligent SOA Security (ISOAS) framework and introduce four of its services: Authentication and Security Service (NSS), the Authorization Service (AS), the Privacy Service (PS) and the Service of Quality of Security Service (SQoSS). Furthermore, a case study is presented to examine the behavior of the described security services inside a market SOA environment.

Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is widely used, which has fueled the rapid growth of Web services and the deployment of tremendous Web services over the last decades. It becomes challenging but crucial to find the proper Web services because of the increasing amount of Web services. However, it proves unfeasible to inspect all the Web services to check their quality values since it will consume a lot of resources. Thus, developing effective and efficient approaches for predicting the quality values of Web services has become an important research issue. In this paper, we propose UIQPCA, a novel approach for hybrid User and Item-based Quality Prediction with Covering Algorithm. UIQPCA integrates information of both users and Web services on the basis of users’ ideas on the quality of coinvoked Web services. After the integration, users and Web services which are similar to the target user and the target Web service are selected. Then, considering the result of integration, UIQPCA makes predictions on how a target user will appraise a target Web service. Broad experiments on WS-Dream, a web service dataset which is widely used in real world, are conducted to evaluate the reliability of UIQPCA. According to the results of experiment, UIQPCA is far better than former approaches, including item-based, user-based, hybrid, and cluster-based approaches.

Workflow-based web service compositions (WB-WSCs) is one of the main composition categories in service oriented architecture (SOA). Eflow, polymorphic process model (PPM), and business process execution language (BPEL) are the main techniques of the category of WB-WSCs. Due to maturity of web services, measuring the quality of composite web services being developed by different techniques becomes one of the most important challenges in today’s web environments. Business should try to provide good quality regarding the customers’ requirements to a composed web service. Thus, quality of service (QoS) which refers to nonfunctional parameters is important to be measured since the quality degree of a certain web service composition could be achieved. This paper tried to find a deterministic analytical method for dependability and performance measurement using Colored Petri net (CPN) with explicit routing constructs and application of theory of probability. A computer tool called WSET was also developed for modeling and supporting QoS measurement through simulation.

The realisation of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) to communicate data between systems running on different platforms lack an organised framework to capture the essential elements required for successful interoperability between web applications and their services. In this work, a SOA for Data Interoperability in Web Applications (SOADIWA) was designed. The architecture of SOADIWA was based on five layers, namely Web Application Layer (WAL), Quality of Service Assurance Certifier Layer (QoSACL), Web Service Layer (WSL), Visualization Input Layer (VIL) and Visualization Output Layer (VOL). In WAL, the Service Requester (SR) initiates a request for data from the Service Provider (SP) through the QoSACL to provide appropriate website via WSL for rendering of services which must be accepted, processed and returned for a particular need in VIL. The requested data is filtered in VIL for data exploration and analysis in VOL using context-sensitive visualization techniques. The purpose of QoSACL is to check and verify the claims made by the SP about its quality of service. This enabled the SR to choose the service that satisfied its needs. The implementation comprised of Java Script, Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 and NuGet packages; while the experiment was simulated on LoadUI pro application. Standard metrics such as Optimal Performance (OP) and Phased Effort Distribution (PED) were developed to test SOADIWA. These results conformed to basic web service interoperability. The work led to the integration of a host of techniques towards the creation of a novel tool that is useful in web domain using SOA approach.

The use of firewall has been widespread in all the emerging technologies such as Service Oriented Architecture, web services, cloud computing and so on. The term security itself is the most important task that has to be maintained in the real-time applications. Policies are enrolled in the security of the firewall where the quality of policies is to be maintained. The network administrator defines the policy as a rule. Managing the firewall policies, maintaining the risk analysis and also the conflicting nature that arise in the network, lack of systematic analysis mechanisms and tools used are often error prone. The distributed firewall is used to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional firewall. In this paper we represent a set of techniques such as, rule-based segmentation technique to identify the policy anomalies and effectively derive the anomaly resolution. Grid-based visualization technique, provide the policy anomaly information in a grid form, which helps in identifying the policy conflicts and finally the techniques to resolve the conflicts and the redundancy that arise in a single- or multi-firewall environment. We also discuss about the implementation of the visualization-based firewall policy analysis tool called Firewall Anomaly Management Framework (FAME), where all the techniques are used in a single tool and an approach to resolve the anomalies in an effective and efficient way.

The selection of services is a key part of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Services are primarily selected based on function, but Quality of Service (QoS) is an important factor when choosing among several services with the same function. But current service selection approaches often takes time to unnecessarily recompute requests. Furthermore, if the same service is chosen as having the "best" QoS for multiple selections, this may result in that service having too much load. We thus propose the FASICA (FAst service selection for SImilar constraints with CAche) Framework which chooses a service with satisfactory QoS as quickly as possible. The key points are (1) to use a cache which stores previous search results, (2) to use K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) algorithm with K-d tree when a satisfactory service does not exist in the cache, and (3) to distribute the service request according to a distribution policy. Results of simulations show that our framework can rapidly select a service compared to a conventional approach.
