In digital era, Indonesia as democratic country needs to implement e-voting for presidential and governor election. Some countries have implement e-voting and two of them are more populated than Indonesia. E-voting can make voting process and vote distribution better. In this paper we proposed IT infrastructure for e-voting using load balancing, cryptography, and block chain. Also this proposed model can be discussed further about application and system replication to produce similar data from all servers.

In the digital era and the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, all activities are online. If the number of users accessing the server exceeds IT infrastructure, server down occurs. A load balancer device is required to share the traffic request load. This study compares four algorithms on Citrix ADC VPX load balancer: round-robin, least connection, least response time and least packet using GNS3. The results of testing response time and throughput parameters show that the least connection algorithm is superior. There were a 33% reduction in response time and a 53% increase in throughput. In the service hits parameter, the round-robin algorithm has the evenest traffic distribution. While least packet superior in CPU utilization with 76% reduction. So algorithm with the best response time and throughput is the least connection. The algorithm with the best service hits is round-robin. Large scale implementation is recommended using the least connection algorithm regarding response time and throughput. When emphasizing evenest distribution, use a round-robin algorithm.

Our society is nowadays evolving towards a digital era, due to the extensive use of computer technologies and their interconnection mechanisms, i.e., social networks, Internet resources, IoT services, etc. This way, new threats and vulnerabilities appear. Therefore, there is an urgent necessity of training students in the topic of cybersecurity, in which practical skills have to be acquired. In distance education, the inclusion of on-line resources for hands-on activities in its curricula is a key step in meeting that need. This work presents several contributions. First, the fundamentals of a virtual remote laboratory hosted in the cloud are detailed. This laboratory is a step forward since the laboratory combines both virtualization and cloud paradigms to dynamically create emulated environments. Second, this laboratory has also been integrated into the practical curricula of a cybersecurity subject, as an additional on-line resource. Third, the students’ traceability, in terms of their interactions with the laboratory, is also analyzed. Psychological TAM/UTAUT factors (perceived usefulness, estimated effort, social influence, attitude, ease of access) that may affect the intention of using the laboratory are analyzed. Fourth, the degree of satisfaction is analyzed with a great impact, since the mean values of these factors are most of them higher than 4 points out of 5. In addition to this, the students’ acceptance of the presented technology is exhaustively studied. Two structural equation models have been hypothesized and validated. Finally, the acceptance of the technology can be concluded as very good in order to be used in other Engineering contexts. In this sense, the calculated statistical values for the improved proposed model are within the expected ranges of reliability (X2 = 0.6, X2/DF = 0.3, GFI = 0.985, CIF = 0.985, RMSEA = 0) by considering the literature.

The Internet Of Things

The Internet of things is the basic paradigm with the cluster of techniques that ensure innovations in the service rendered in various applications. It aims to develop a seamless connection between the tangible objects around and the information network in turn to provide a well-structured servicing to its users. Though the IOT service seems to be promising, the risks still prevail in the form of privacy and the security in user acceptance in utilizing the internet of things services, and its application. This makes the trust management very important for the internet of things. So the paper puts forth the distributed block chain involved trust system to manage the conveyance infrastructures of the internet of things paradigm. The evaluation of the proposed model evinces the enhanced security provided for the nodes of the IOT as well as its information exchange.

Load-Balancing is an important problem in distributed heterogeneous systems. In this paper, an Agent-based load-balancing model is developed for implementation in a grid environment. Load balancing is realized via migration of worker agents from overloaded resources to underloaded ones. The proposed model purposes to take benefit of the multi-agent system characteristics to create an autonomous system. The Agent-based load balancing model is implemented using JADE (Java Agent Development Framework) and Alea 2 as a grid simulator. The use of MAS is discussed, concerning the solutions adopted for gathering information policy, location policy, selection policy, worker agents migration, and load balancing.

The Impact

This chapter discusses emerging issues and technologies, such as ethical responsibilities in a changing technological environment, the use of analytics and artificial intelligence, the evolution of communications technology, and the growth of block chain and mobile apps technology. Mobile apps technology is a very exciting development because the nature of the applications is very personal and target specific customer needs, hence gradually resolving the issue of explicitly knowing the customer and meeting its personal needs through the concept of personas. This chapter provides numerous examples of how the various technological developments can be specifically implemented to enhance public service delivery in the digital era. In this context, Chapter 12 has two important implications, namely the impact of the technology trends to revolutionise public service delivery on the operations of government entities and users of government services in the future.

Voting is the principal incident in any democratic country. Generally voting is done using ballots system, but this technique is ancient and can be easily sabotaged. There is a necessity to bring in new technologies to ensure effective implementation of digital voting systems. The security of digital voting is a significant aspect for implementation and must meet the requirements to be appropriate for trust worthiness. Block chain technology provides reliable electronic voting system that can be secured by adding more decision so that the possible attacks can be avoided. Block chain technology based on crypto currency implements diffused database architecture with transaction records secured by transactions.

The works produced within the music industry arepresented to their listeners on a digital platform,taking advantage of technology. The problems of thepast, such as pirated cassettes and CDs, have left theirplace to the problem of copyright protection on digitalplatforms today. Block chain is one of the mostreliable and preferred technologies in recent timesregarding data integrity and data security. In thisstudy, a blockzincir-based music wallet model isproposed for safe and legal listening of audio files.The user's selected audio files are converted intoblock chain structure using different techniques andalgorithms and are kept securely in the user's musicwallet. In the study, performance comparisons aremade with the proposed model application in terms ofthe length of time an ordinary audio player can addnew audio files to the list and the response times ofthe user. The findings suggest that the proposedmodel implementation has acceptable differences inperformance with an ordinary audio player.

From the recent study, it is observed that even though cloud computing grants the greatest performance in the case of storage, computing, and networking services, the Internet of Things (IoT) still suffers from high processing latency, awareness of location, and least mobility support. To address these issues, this paper integrates fog computing and Software-Defined Networking (SDN). Importantly, fog computing does the extension of computing and storing to the network edge that could minimize the latency along with mobility support. Further, this paper aims to incorporate a new optimization strategy to address the “Load balancing” problem in terms of latency minimization. A new Thresholded-Whale Optimization Algorithm (T-WOA) is introduced for the optimal selection of load distribution coefficient (time allocation for doing a task). Finally, the performance of the proposed model is compared with other conventional models concerning latency. The simulation results prove that the SDN based T-WOA algorithm could efficiently minimize the latency and improve the Quality of Service (QoS) in Software Defined Cloud/Fog architecture.
