	abstract = {Vehicular Ad-hoc networks VANETs is a sub-class of Mobile Ad-hoc networks MANETs that has many promising future applications. For example, VANETs can significantly reduce car deaths. In VANETs, nodes mainly communicate by broadcasting messages to each other. Such broadcasting needs to be designed carefully to minimize both congestion and latency. However, most prior broadcasting protocols minimize either congestion or latency, but not both. In this paper, we present CPROB, a new broadcasting algorithm for VANETs that minimizes both congestion and latency. We achieve this result by setting a key parameter (namely the waiting time before retransmission) based on the characteristics of the surrounding environment. Through NS2 simulations, we show that CPROB achieves 57\% less latency and comparable congestion than prior work in congested areas. In less congested areas, CPROB has a comparable performance to prior work.},

	abstract = {Forecasting of future electricity demand has become a promising issue for the electric power industry. Since many factors affect electric load data, machine learning methods are useful for electric load forecasting (ELF). On the one hand, it is important to determine the irrelevant factors as a preprocessing step for ELF. On the other hand, the performance of machine learning models depends heavily on the choice of its parameters. These problems are known respectively as feature selection and model selection problems. In this paper, we use the support vector regression (SVR) model for ELF. Our contribution consists of investigating the use the particle swarm optimization for both feature selection and model selection problems. Experimental results on two widely used electric load dataset show that our proposed hybrid method for feature selection and parameter optimization of SVR can achieve better results when compared with the classical SVR model while using feature selection and without using it.},

The Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks VANETs are a sub-class of the most studied Mobile Ad hoc Networks MANET, in which vehicles are considered as mobile nodes. VANETs differ from other MANETs because of their specific characteristics, inducing numerous problems and constraints, which lead us to discuss many issues in VANETs as they are decentralized, self organized, self monitoring with distributed nature of network. When and if deployed, VANETs will be the most implemented MANET ever and will continue their development over next years; it is indeed the reason why many issues are of great concern to be studied. Ample research efforts have been devoted to VANETs in the broadcasting domain. In order to have optimal and adaptive approaches, we focus on a number of requirements. In this light, this article will present an overview of VANETs, chiefly broadcasting protocols with the aim to resolve this relevant related issue, it also present some suggested broadcasting solutions and a propose a new algorithm with the idea of integrating the concept of Intelligent Traffic Lights ITLs in order to solve the core{\textquoteright}s problem which is how to minimize the number of rebroadcast packets while maintaining good latency and reachability using dynamic parameters from the counter, probability based and distance based.},

Besides the different opportunities and advantages offered by ICT, Smart Grid suffers from its inherent challenges, especially, at the level of cyber-security. Consequently, there are several security threats that may affect Smart Grid. These can be divided into three categories, namely, people and policy threats, platform threats and network threats. To address these threats several approaches and mechanisms were developed based on cryptographic methods, authentication protocols and firewalls.

Recent studies showed that using information and communication technologies will have a significant impact on improving energy efficiency in real buildings. The main aim of these studies is to develop energy control approaches to improve energy performance and occupant comfort in buildings. In this paper, a CO2-based strategy using a state feedback technique for controlling mechanical ventilation systems in energy-efficient building is proposed. The principal objective of the developed controller is to improve optimal balance between energy efficiency and indoor air quality by maintaining the indoor CO2 concentration at the comfort set point with an efficient ventilation rate while reducing energy consumption. The ventilation system is analysed, modeled, and simulated. The simulation results are reported to show the efficiency of the proposed control approach compared to the traditional On/Off and the PI ventilation control.},

The choice of this specific router, called RP in PIM-SM protocol, is the main problem concerning the construction of multicast tree; this choice affects the structure of multicast routing tree, and therefore influences performances of both multicast session and routing scheme. The determination of a best position of the RP within a specified delay and delay variation associated is an NP complete problem: it needs to be solved through a heuristic algorithm.

A numerous results prove that the proposed algorithm is valid for general linear codes and it is very fast comparing to all others known techniques, therefore it is a good tool for computing.

GPS provides good performances in terms of location in open area, but performances degrade to a significant manner when we go into an enclosed area. While the UMTS offers good results in urban areas, we can note a complementarity between these two techniques. In this paper we present a hybrid algorithm that combines these two techniques and takes best advantage of each of them with two approaches one simple and another advanced.},

Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) approach could provide a possible solution to provide an automated way to generate a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for such applications. In this paper, we propose an approach based on MDA, to generate GUI for mobile applications on smartphones. The adopted approach consists of three main steps (i) analyzing and modeling the GUI under UML; (ii) transforming the obtained diagrams to a simplified XMI schema using JDOM API; and (iii) generating the GUI based on MDA. Our method has the advantages to generate automatically GUI for several platforms, and gives a graphical way for designing in UML.},

Also, the design, development and deployment of services - either elementary or composite - have constantly gained ground. However, the user{\textquoteright}s context must constitute an essential aspect of such services in order to improve the end-user experience. As observed from the literature, several researches focuses mainly on context-aware service design and modeling, but few study had worked on the composition of this new kind of service to provide more complicated features. In this paper, we aim to present our proposal of adapting service composition by the integration of context during the composition process. This dynamic context-aware composition of services is realized through our Context-Aware Composition Builder tool.},

Hence, this new approach reduces the complexity of decoding the codes of high rates. We also presented a new soft-decision decoding based on Genetic Algorithms and the Chase algorithm. The simulations applied on some binary Linear Block Codes, show that the genetic decoder has the same performance as the Berlekamp-Massey Algorithm (BM) and Cardoso algorithm.},

The selection of data to be stored in the mediator (to materialize) is an essential task. Different selection criteria were proposed to select among a set of candidate views, ones that will be materialized. However, the approaches proposed with regard to the creation of these views are rare. This paper presents a data materialization approach, in the scope of a hybrid integration system. This approach creates candidate views for materialization based on the previous user queries, and then decides which among them should be selected for materialization. Guided by the technique of clustering-merging, it is organized into two steps: (1) from the distribution of previous user queries, are extracted all data most queried by users. The obtained data are classified as candidate views for materialization. (2) then selecting which views to materialize among all the candidate views created in the first step.},

Moreover, with the evolution of SOA, the focus in software development has shifted from applications to reusable services. Besides, reuse in SOA has more focused on service composition rather than reuse of existing implementations to build new services with additional functionalities. The preferred way to realize SOA remains web services which explain our interest in promoting reuse of Web services by managing variability. In this paper, we propose a model driven method for managing Web service{\textquoteright}s variability based on MDA (Model Driven Architecture). In fact, through MDA, the method enables the automation of Web service{\textquoteright}s realization regardless of the supported platforms. Moreover, we present a WSDL extension meta-model called VarWSDL which enhances Web services by variability notions. That permits Web services reuse.},

This paper proposes a hybrid QoS routing protocol for WSN based on a customized Distributed Genetic Algorithm (DGA) that accounts for delay and energy constraints. The proposed protocol (QDGRP) is compared to AODV w.r.t several performance metrics : end-to-end delay, throughput, packet delivery ratio and energy efficiency. The realized simulations show that QDGRP outperforms AODV and manages to achieve very good performances for various deployment scenarios.},

This model was defined by incorporating information security best practice approaches in the paradigm of service-oriented architecture using an argued approach and mapping models. Security Indicators deduced in our study denote the complexity of security controls as SOA maturity levels get higher. Besides, as the model that we proposed is based on security standards and best practices, it can be further developed to support organizations to evaluate and adjust their security practices according to their SOA migration plan.},

	abstract = {Covering both theoretical and practical interest in different networks layers, multicast routing remains an important topic. In network layer, there are several multicast routing protocols using different multicast routing trees in the literature. However PIM-SM and CBT protocols remains the most used multicast routing protocols; they propose using a shared tree (ST). This kind of tree provides efficient management of multicast path in changing group memberships, scalability and performance. The main problem concerning the construction of a shared tree is to determine the best position of the root. Selection of the core (in CBT protocol) or Rendezvous Point RP (in PIM-SM protocol) affects directly both structure of multicast tree and routing scheme performances of multicast session accordingly. This paper proposes a multicast RP selection algorithm based on VNS search. This algorithm selects the RP router with systematic change of arbitrarily chosen neighborhoods by considering both cost and delay functions. Simulation results show that good performance is achieved in terms of multicast cost, end-to-end delay, tree construction delay and others metrics.},
