Due to the rapidly increasing number of intrusion variants, intrusion detection system analyses and notifies the activities of users as normal (or) anomaly. In our paper, we built a model of intrusion detection system applied to the NSL-KDD data set using different supervised classifiers such as KNN and Na{\"\i}ve Bayes. We also proposed two algorithms for multi-classification based on the Random Forest (RF) which is an ensemble classifier and KNN. Then we used the K-folds method to evaluate and validate our model. To evaluate the performances, we realized experiments on NSL-KDD data set. The result shows that the second proposed algorithm is efficient with high accuracy and time optimization. {\textcopyright} 2022 ACM.},

Starting from the premise that Enterprise architecture remains the instrument ensuring this alignment Strategy//business//IT, dynamic aspects should be present in the EA representation but also should be perceived in the reaction of enterprises managing the change. On the other hand, ontologies offer a formal and a shared representation of the domain studied; EA in our case. Once formalized, the representation became computable so, all the EA reactions became dynamic towards the triggers of change. To benefit from the previous experiences, Case-based reasoning is introduced in our approach allowing a problem resolution via similarity and adaptation of knowledge to the current context.

	abstract = {Purpose: Hundreds of thousands of deaths each year in the world are caused by breast cancer (BC). An early-stage diagnosis of this disease can positively reduce the morbidity and mortality rate by helping to select the most appropriate treatment options, especially by using histological BC images for the diagnosis. Design/methodology/approach: The present study proposes and evaluates a novel approach which consists of 24 deep hybrid heterogenous ensembles that combine the strength of seven deep learning techniques (DenseNet 201, Inception V3, VGG16, VGG19, Inception-ResNet-V3, MobileNet V2 and ResNet 50) for feature extraction and four well-known classifiers (multi-layer perceptron, support vector machines, K-nearest neighbors and decision tree) by means of hard and weighted voting combination methods for histological classification of BC medical image. Furthermore, the best deep hybrid heterogenous ensembles were compared to the deep stacked ensembles to determine the best strategy to design the deep ensemble methods. The empirical evaluations used four classification performance criteria (accuracy, sensitivity, precision and F1-score), fivefold cross-validation, Scott{\textendash}Knott (SK) statistical test and Borda count voting method. All empirical evaluations were assessed using four performance measures, including accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score, and were over the histological BreakHis public dataset with four magnification factors (40{\texttimes}, 100{\texttimes}, 200{\texttimes} and 400{\texttimes}). SK statistical test and Borda count were also used to cluster the designed techniques and rank the techniques belonging to the best SK cluster, respectively. Findings: Results showed that the deep hybrid heterogenous ensembles outperformed both their singles and the deep stacked ensembles and reached the accuracy values of 96.3, 95.6, 96.3 and 94 per cent across the four magnification factors 40{\texttimes}, 100{\texttimes}, 200{\texttimes} and 400{\texttimes}, respectively. Originality/value: The proposed deep hybrid heterogenous ensembles can be applied for the BC diagnosis to assist pathologists in reducing the missed diagnoses and proposing adequate treatments for the patients. {\textcopyright} 2022, Emerald Publishing Limited.},

	abstract = {Learning style is a significant learner-difference factor. Each learner has a preferred learning style and a different way of processing and understanding the novelty. In this paper, a new approach that automatically identifies learners learning styles based on their interaction with the Learning Management System (LMS) is introduced. To implement this approach, the traces of 920 enrolled learners in three agronomy courses were exploited using an unsupervised clustering method to group learners according to their degree of engagement. The decision tree classification algorithm relies on the decision rules construction, which is widely adopted to identify the accurate learning style. As the lack of good decision rules would lead to learning style misclassification, the Felder-Silverman Learning Style Model (FSLSM) is used as it is among the most adopted models in the technology of quality improvement process. The results of this research highlight that most learners prefer the global learning style {\textcopyright} 2022, International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies.All Rights Reserved.},

	abstract = {Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a new technology on which are based Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The goal of this technology is to improve the vehicular environment, and to provide more safety for both vehicles and drivers. In this global context, characterized by the use of IoT, vehicles are integrating more intelligent tools that help to insure vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure and vehicle-to-driver communications. Hence, IoT involves the necessity to handle and manage a huge amount of data, including processing and analyzing traffic signs and road scene images. In fact, dealing with these aspects of Big Data (volume, variety, etc.) presents a big challenge, for which many approaches are proposed, including Deep Learning (DL). Although their high performances, this type of approaches still faces many difficulties, which are related essentially to the computational load and the hardware requirements. From this perspective, we have adopted a new Deep architecture to ensure traffic signs classification. The objective of the proposed architecture is to speed up the training and the inference stages, and that without affecting classification{\textquoteright}s performances. The obtained results show that the adopted approach accelerates the training \& the inference speed, and reaches high accuracies using a limited number of parameters. {\textcopyright} 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.},

	abstract = {From a basic refrigerator to a self-driving car, emerging technologies are increasingly involving various facets of our daily lives. These bring together many regularly used devices, each with its own characteristics, to communicate and collaborate within the same system. Computer network experts regard this so-called structure as a heterogeneous network made up of several connected objects that do not speak the same language. Communication is therefore ensured by additional types of nodes, such as gateways or converters. In this case, we can detect an increased complexity and a decreased level of security. And thus, the need to adopt a common slang for these kinds of networks has been brought to life. In this work, we compare two different routing protocols: optimized link-state routing (OLSR) and the multipath heterogeneous ad hoc network OLSR (MHAR-OLSR). The latter is an OLSR extension with new functionalities: nodes identification, paths calculation, paths classification, and paths choice that we designed for heterogeneous ad hoc networks composed of MANET, VANET, and FANET devices; it ensures direct communication between these diverse components. We verify and explain all the elements of our solution using colored Petri nets. We also present a global evaluation of Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-To-End Delay, and energy consumption as QoS measures with different numbers of nodes in a heterogeneous scenario. To do this, we use NS-3 and BonnMotion as a tool-set of simulation. Experimental results show improvement in performance when compared to the classical routing protocol. {\textcopyright} 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.},

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are promising for building predictive models since their ability to learn from previous data, adapt and produce more accurate results. In this paper, we conducted a systematic mapping study of papers dealing with the estimation of software development effort based on artificial neural networks. In total, 80 relevant studies were identified between 1993 and 2020 and classified with respect to five criteria: publication source, research approach, contribution type, techniques used in combination with ANN models and type of the neural network used. The results showed that, most ANN-based software development effort estimation (SDEE) studies applied the history-based evaluation (HE) and solution proposal (SP) approaches. Besides, the feedforward neural network was the most frequently used ANN type among SDEE researchers. To improve the performance of ANN models, most papers employed optimization methods such as Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) in combination with ANN models.

	abstract = {This paper proposes new accurate approximations for average error probability (AEP) of a communication system employing either M-phase-shift keying (PSK) or differential quaternary PSK with Gray coding (GC-DQPSK) modulation schemes over generalized fading channel. Firstly, new accurate approximations of error probability (EP) of both modulation schemes are derived over additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. Leveraging the trapezoidal integral method, a tight approximate expression of symbol error probability for M-PSK modulation is presented, while new upper and lower bounds for Marcum Q-function (MQF) of the first order, and subsequently those for bit error probability (BEP) under DQPSK scheme, are proposed. Next, these bounds are linearly combined to propose a highly refined and accurate BE P{\textquoteright}s approximation. The key idea manifested in the decrease property of modified Bessel function Iv, strongly related to MQF, with its argument v. As an application, these approximations are used to tackle AEP{\textquoteright}s approximation under κ - {\textmu} shadowed fading. Numerical results show the accuracy of the presented approximations compared to the exact ones. {\textcopyright} 2021 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {According to the recent grid codes, wind turbine systems (WTSs) are required to stay connected to the grid during grid faults and provide reactive power to support the grid. Therefore, this paper proposes a noncontrolled fault current limiter (NCFCL) with reactive power support for transient stability improvement of DFIG-based WTSs under grid faults. The proposed NCFCL is based on a nonsuperconducting reactor located in the rotor side. The NCFCL considerably limits the rotor and stator overcurrents and improves the transient stability of the doubly fed induction generator (DIFG). In addition, the proposed strategy reduces DC-link overvoltage and electromagnetic torque oscillations and also provides reactive power to the grid to support the grid voltage recovery. In this way, the fault ride-through (FRT) requirements of the latest grid codes can be fulfilled without affecting the DFIG stability in normal operation. Simulation studies using MATLAB/Simulink-2019a are performed on a 2-MW DFIG-based WTS to confirm the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed FRT strategy. Simulation results reveal that the proposed strategy provides better performance compared to the crowbar protection to improve the FRT capability. {\textcopyright} 2021 John Wiley \& Sons Ltd.},

	abstract = {This paper investigates automatic digitization with complete coverage of large and complex environments using a TLS or a mobile scanner. We propose an adaptive multi-objective view-planner that can operate in an unknown environment to provide guidance for the human operator and ease the scanning task or by a mobile robot for an automatic exploration of the environment. The proposed view-planner is adapted to environments where the sensor is operating on a flat surface such as office spaces, urban areas, open fields or in some cultural heritage applications. First, we propose an adaptive gap-based method to extract occluded areas in a point cloud, which is completely automated and does not require extensive computations in a large environment such as ray-tracing or level-set methods. Then, we introduce a novel exploration strategy that uses specific regions of the environment called {\textquotedblleft}Conservative-Cells{\textquotedblright} to drastically reduce the number of sensing positions to achieve complete digitization of the environment. Both methods were validated with simulated and real point clouds. The proposed approach has been applied to a scanner carried by a mobile robot, then to data acquired by a TLS used by a human operator in a large, complex environment. Experimental results on both TLS and mobile robot show that our view-planning approach is effective in finding a sequence of positions that leads to a complete reconstruction of the environment. Moreover, the proposed approach shows efficient performance in terms of coverage rate and computational time compared to others view-planning approaches as well as the results of an experienced human operator in a large, complex environment. {\textcopyright} 2021 International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, Inc.

	abstract = {The novel coronavirus SARS-COV-2 was discovered in November 2019, in China. On March, 2020, the WHO announced that COVID-19 could be characterised as a pandemic (WHO, 2020a). Then, it was rapidly spread from China to others countries. Coronavirus disease, COVID-19, is a viral infection that generates a severe acute respiratory syndrome with serious clinical symptoms given by such as fever, dry cough, and pneumonia (Kucharski et al., 2020). In addition, this virus is so widespread among people and it is difficult to control. To fight the rapid spread of new diseases like COVID-19, the support of technologies such as AI, big data, and IoT has proved to be very useful and provides better pandemic spread control tools. In this paper, we propose to leverage smart grid technology to detect COVID-19 cases clusters, to accelerate pandemic remote monitoring, and to predict probable virus future spread by collecting and analysing retrieved data.

Such proposed approximate PDF is useful analytical tool for analyzing the performance of L-branch maximal-ratio combining receivers subject to such a fading model. This result can be also of paramount importance when dealing with an intelligent reflecting surface subject to GG fading channels. Furthermore, various closed-form approximate expressions, such as the cumulative distribution function (CDF), moment-generating function, outage probability (OP), average channel capacity, nth moment of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), amount of fading, and average symbol error probability (ASEP) for numerous coherent digital modulation schemes, are derived and examined in terms of FHF. To gain further insight into the system performance, asymptotic closed-form expressions for the ASEP and OP are derived and interesting observations are made. Particularly, our asymptotic analysis reveals that the achievable diversity order for high SNR values depends essentially on the branches{\textquoteright} number. The proposed mathematical analysis is assessed and corroborated by Monte-Carlo simulations using computer algebra systems, while the PDF and CDF are validated further with the aid of the Kullback-Leibler divergence criterion and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, respectively {\textcopyright} 2020.

	abstract = {Network slicing (NS) will have an essential role to enhance the isolation and the flexibility of the future generation of cellular networks (5G) with heterogeneous capabilities, notably in ultra-dense (UD) urban zones. Thus, it may be the principal component necessary to respond to 5G UD heterogeneous networks (UD-HetNets) technical requirements. The aim of this paper is to propose a new NS architecture to resolve user equipment (UE)-association problem in 5G UD-HetNets. Accordingly, we formulated the problem as a one-to-many matching game based on matching theory, while exploiting the isolation character of slicing to eliminate interferences between pico-cells and those among macro-cell and pico-cells. Next, we proposed the UE-slice association algorithm (U-S.AA) to find the stable matching among user equipments (UEs) and different network slices. Numerical simulation results validate our theoretical model, and prove the efficient of the proposed user-slice association solution to enhance the global network performance, respecting the UEs quality of service (QoS), as well as improving the energy efficiency (EE) of UEs. {\textcopyright} 2020 IEEE.},

In most applications, it is involved in intractable integrals for which closed-form expressions cannot be evaluated.

As an application, these bounds can be efficiently used to evaluate in closed-form upper bounds for the average symbol error rate for various modulation schemes, in the presence of a generalized fading channel whose probability density function can be written as a summation of a particular Bivariate Fox{\textquoteright}s H-functions. α-μ, κ-μ shadowed, and M{\'a}laga distribution models have been considered as particular cases of such distribution.

	abstract = {A novel and robust active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) strategy for variable speed wind turbine systems using a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) is presented in this paper. The DFIG is directly connected to the main utility grid by stator, and its rotor is connected through a back-to-back three phase power converter (AC/DC/AC). Due to the acoustic nature of wind and to ensure capturing maximum energy, a control strategy to extract the available maximum power from the wind turbine by using a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is presented. Moreover, a pitch actuator system is used to control the blades{\textquoteright} pitch angle of the wind turbine in order to not exceed the wind turbine rated power value in case of strong wind speeds. Furthermore, the rotor-side converter is used to control the active and reactive powers generated by the DFIG. However, the grid-side converter is used to control the currents injected into the utility grid as well as to regulate the DC-link voltage. This paper aims to study and develop two control strategies for wind turbine system control: Classical control by proportional integral (PI) and the proposed linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC). The main purpose here is to compare and evaluate the dynamical performances and sensitivity of these controllers to the DFIG parameter variation. Therefore, a series of simulations were carried out in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, and the obtained results have shown the effectiveness of the proposed strategy in terms of efficiency, rapidity, and robustness to internal and external disturbances. {\textcopyright} 2020 Hammadi Laghridat et al.},

	abstract = {Spectrum scarcity is the principal motivation behind the development of cognitive radio. This technology introduces new functionalities at the physical, medium access control, and network layers of the TCP/IP protocol stack. These functionalities can be subject to new security threats. Most of the existing works in cognitive radio focused on the security issues in both the physical and medium access control layers. However, threats related to the network layer have not been studied despite its importance in establishing communication between different users in cognitive radio networks. In this paper, we classify and give an overview of attacks that target the network layer functionalities of cognitive radio networks. We discuss the existing detection techniques and countermeasures and highlight the main security challenges for such networks. {\textcopyright} 2017 Elsevier Ltd},

	abstract = {Cognitive radio (CR) is an upcoming technology in wireless communications. Available spectrum used by licensed user is called as primary user (PU). Unused licensed spectrum is called spectrum hole. CR i.e., unlicensed user is called as secondary user (SU). The important task to the CR is to efficiently use the available spectrum without disturbing PU. The success of CR depends on spectrum sensing efficiency. In energy detection method, we have compared the energy of the samples with threshold (denoted as λ). If the sample energy is greater than the threshold, we say the signal is present; otherwise, the signal is absent. This method does not require any prior information of the signal, so energy detection is a popular sensing method due to its simplicity. Through this paper, we would like to propose a novel threshold formulation for energy detection method to efficient spectrum sensing in cognitive radio. Proposed formulation avoids Q inverse function; also, this formulation is independent of number of samples. With rigorous analysis of the proposed formulation for different SNRs, it gives better results compared to other systems. {\textcopyright} 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.},

On the other hand, we introduced a fast method for generating test error patterns. Our decoder is suitable for linear bloc code of medium and high code rate. Because, it presents a reduced complexity compared to similar decoders presented in literature. Simulation results show that the basic decoder, Dual-R-0 out performs the Berlikamp-massey{\textquoteright}s one for the decoding of the BCH(63, 51) code with BPSk modulation over an AWGN channel. The performance of the decoder Dual-R-2 for the code BCH(2047, 2014) is about 0.9 dB away from the Shannon{\textquoteright}s limit at the bit error rate (BER) 10-5. {\textcopyright} 2016 IEEE.},

	abstract = {In this paper, we present one generalization of the famous capacitated p-median location problem, called budget constraint multi-capacitated location problem (MCLP). This generalization is characterized by allowing each facility to be used with different capacity levels. We consider n customers, m facilities and l capacity levels, we note that the solution shape of MCLP can be represented as a set of disjoint clusters, each cluster is composed of one facility and a subset of customers. When creating clusters, some constraints must be met, namely the level selection and capacity. In this work, we present the new formulation of the MCLP based on set partitioning, then we suggest an adapted solving method, which will be called NFF (Nearest Facility First). The NFF approach is used in two ways: as a heuristic by taking only the first solution found or exact method when waiting finish the execution. Computational results are presented at the end using instances that we have created under some criteria of difficulties or adapted from those of p-median problems available in literature. The NFF method provides very good results for low and medium difficulty instances, but it is less effective for the more complex ones. To remedy this problem, the method will be supplemented by column generation approach. {\textcopyright} IEOM Society International.},

It is much simpler than the probabilistic methods like Sum Product Algorithm (SPA), and can be efficiently implemented by electronic circuits. In this paper, we propose a new Bit Flipping algorithm for Low-Density Parity- Check codes (LDPC) called Single Bit-Flipping (SBF). Compared to the Gallager Bit-Flipping algorithm, the proposed algorithm employs criteria of flipping single bit chosen carefully. This method eliminates the risk for flipping more than one bit at a time that can induce additional error bits and propagate the errors to the later iterations. We present some results obtained by applying this new method that provides a gain in performance in comparison to the standard Gallager Bit-Flipping with low complexity. {\textcopyright}2017 IEEE.},

Traditional intrusion detection systems based on signature and anomaly techniques are no longer sufficient to protect SGs due to their new connectivity and management challenges, the ever-rapidly-evolving masquerades, and cyber criminality levied against them. SGs require cyber-security systems to render them resilient and protected through advanced Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) techniques and mechanisms. This paper proposes a smart collaborative advanced IDPS to provide the best possible protection of SGs with a fully distributed management structure that supports the network and host based detections and the prevention of attacks.

	abstract = {Nowadays, we are converging more and more towards smart environments like smart cars, drones, unmanned airplanes, internet of things and connected homes... These new gadgets are in need to communicate and interact with each other for their proper functioning. Due to their easy implementation, the mobile ad hoc networks constitute the fastest and the most efficient way to establish connection in smart environments. However, in proactive ad hoc routing protocol, like the Optimized Link State Routing, maintaining the topology increases the overhead and consumes a considerable energy power. In smart environments, some terminals are battery powered. Designing efficient communication protocols is crucial to decrease the interferences, to enhance the performance of the network and to reduce the consumption of energy. In this paper, we use the node localization in the context of OLSR to select dispersive Multi-Point Relays responsible of broadcasting the topology into the entire network. We divide the environment into several virtual zones. Then we try to elect forwarders at different partitions to cover the maximum surface area in order to reach the greater number of devices. The simulations show that our proposal reduces at certain extent, the amount of traffic overhead, improves the network capacity and lets more bandwidth for the smart environment{\textquoteright}s applications. {\textcopyright} 2017 Association for Computing Machinery.},

This had led us to propose a new design algorithm based on Genetic Algorithms, as an extension to previous works on the binary field. With the proposed algorithm, we were able to obtain long new non-binary cyclic OSMLD codes with high coding rates and good correction capacities. In fact, two powerful properties of the algebraic construction are provided, firstly, the designed codes have their minimal distances dmin and dimensions calculated analyticaly, secondly, they can be decoded with a low-complexity majority-voting decoding scheme. {\textcopyright} 2016 IEEE.},

	abstract = {Non-binary One Step Majority Logic decodable (OSMLD) codes have several advantages over their binary counterparts but unfortunately their decoding complexity is significantly challenging. In this paper, we propose two contributions. Our first contribution is to use the Majority-Logic Decoding (MLGD) algorithm for non-binary cyclic OSMLD codes, since it involves only finite field addition and multiplication, in addition to a majority vote, and hence has significantly lower complexity than other decoding algorithms, which seems to be an attractive choice. The second contribution is to use finite geometry codes, even those of prime fields, because they have a large number of orthogonal equations which makes them good candidates for the MLGD algorithm, so we can benefit from its low complexity. We also investigate the power correction of this algorithm and the results are quite satisfying. {\textcopyright} 2016 IEEE.},

This system, is an SVM (support vector machine) tested on a 2000 records data-set consisting of 1000 legitimate and 1000 phishing URLs records. In the literature, several works tackled the phishing attack. However those systems are not optimal to smartphones and other embed devices because of their complex computing and their high battery usage. The proposed system uses only six URL features to perform the recognition. The mentioned features are the URL size, the number of hyphens, the number of dots, the number of numeric characters plus a discrete variable that correspond to the presence of an IP address in the URL and finally the similarity index. Proven by the results of this study the similarity index, the feature we introduce for the first time as input to the phishing detection systems improves the overall recognition rate by 21.8\%. {\textcopyright} 2017, The Author(s).},

	abstract = {In order to find a minimum weight codeword in a linear code, the Multiple Impulse Method uses the Ordered Statistics Decoder of order 3 having a complexity which increases with the code dimension. This paper presents an important improvement of this method by finding a sub code of C of small dimension containing a lowest weight codeword. In the case of Binary Extended Quadratic Residue codes, the proposed technique consists on finding a self invertible permutation σ from the projective special linear group and searching a codeword having the minimum weight in the sub code fixed by σ. The proposed technique gives the exact value of the minimum distance for all binary quadratic residue codes of length less than 223 by using the Multiple Impulse Method on the sub codes in less than one second. For lengths more than 223, the obtained results prove the height capacity of the proposed technique to find the lowest weight in less time. The proposed idea is generalized for BCH codes and it has permits to find the true value of the minimum distance for some codes of lengths 1023 and 2047. The proposed methods performed very well in comparison to previously known results. {\textcopyright} 2016 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l. - All rights reserved.},

Computer vision provides a promising solution to analyze personal behavior and detect certain unusual events such as falls. In this paper, we present a new method for fall detection based on the variation of shape and motion. First, we use the CodeBook method to extract the person silhouette from the video. Then, information of rectangle, ellipse and histogram projection are used to provide features to analyze the person shape. In addition, we represent the person shape by three blocks extracted from rectangle. Then, we use optical flow to analyze the person motion within each blocks. Finally, falls are detected from normal activities using thresholding-based method. All experiments show that our fall detection system achieves very good performances in accuracy and error rate. {\textcopyright} Springer International Publishing AG 2016.},

We propose three different methods to under-sample the majority class documents. Our goal is to compare the effectiveness of the proposed methods with the common random under-sampling. We also aim to evaluate the behaviour of the classifier toward different under-sampling rates. We use three different common classifiers, namely Na{\"\i}ve Bayes, support vector machines and k-nearest neighbours. The experiments are carried out on two different Arabic datasets that we have built internally. We show that results obtained on the first dataset, which is slightly skewed, are better than those obtained on the second one which is highly skewed. We conclude also that Na{\"\i}ve Bayes is sensitive to dataset size, the more we reduce the data the more the results degrade. However, support vector machines are highly sensitive to unbalanced datasets. We record an instable behaviour of k-nearest neighbour. The results show also that we can rely on the proposed techniques and that they are typically competitive with random under-sampling. {\textcopyright} 2016 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.},

In this paper, we will deal out the first module which is the main unit in the fall detection system, because it is where we detect the person in the image. There are a lot of approaches in this way, but their results are not perfect due to the change of the background model. Many works propose to improve those results, but these approaches are not satisfied in some states. In this way, we propose a novel approach by using the optical flow which can improve The result to extract the foreground human body without errors. {\textcopyright} 2015 IEEE.},

The energy criterion is one of the most important of these parameters that will provide a long lifetime for a given MANET. This paper proposes a new clustering algorithm for the OLSR routing protocol which consumes less energy and enhances transmission delay. This algorithm manages nodes density and mobility; and gives major improvements regarding the number of elected clusters Head. We have conducted some comparison with other clustering algorithms to prove the efficiency of our algorithm. Our main objective is to elect a reasonable number of clusters Head that will serve for hierarchical routing using OLSR as a routing protocol. The second objective is to increase the network lifetime by considering the Ad hoc residual energy when taking routing decisions. We have found that our algorithm optimize the end to end delay by adopting a selective forwarding approach based on the hierarchical routing model},

	abstract = {The explosion of information and telecommunications technologies, has made easy the access and production of information. Thus, a very large mass of the latter has generated. This situation has made the integration systems an immediate necessity. Among these systems, there is the hybrid mediator. The latter interrogates one part of data on demand as in the virtual approach, while charging, filtering and storing the second part, as views, in a local database. The creation of this second part is a critical task. We propose in this paper, a new algorithm for creating views{\textquoteright} schemas to materialize in the hybrid integration system. {\textcopyright} 2015 IEEE.},

In contrast with the classical Vector Space Model which represents each document by a unique vector in the feature space, our model consists in representing each document by a vector in the space of training documents of each category. We develop, for this novel model, a discriminative classifier which is based on the norms of the generated vectors by our model. We call this algorithm the Nearest Cetroid based on Vector Norms. Our major goal, by the proposition of such new classification framework, is to overcome the problems related to huge dimensionality and vector sparsity which are commonly faced in Text Classification problems. We evaluate the performance of the proposed framework by comparing its effectiveness and efficiency with those of some standard classifiers when used with the classical document representation. The studied classifiers are Na{\"\i}ve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machines (SVM) and k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN). We conduct our experiments on multi-lingual balanced and unbalanced binary data sets. Our results show that our algorithm typically performs well since it is competitive with the classical methods and, at the same time, dramatically faster especially in comparison with NB and kNN. We also apply our model on the Reuters21578 corpus so as to evaluate its performance in a multi-class environment. We can say that the obtained result (85.4\% in terms of micro-F1) is promising and that it can be improved in future works. {\textcopyright} 2014 Springer International Publishing Switzerland.},

For this reason, clustering techniques are largely made use of. In this paper we propose a new algorithm based on the principle of spectral clustering methods. Especially, we use the K-ways spectral clustering algorithm. The main characteristic of our proposal is that it defines the optimal number of clusters and dynamically changes the election probabilities of the cluster heads based on their residual energy. Up on analyzing the impact of node density on the robustness of the proposed algorithm as well as on its energy and lifetime gains, simulation results show that the approach actually improves the lifetime of a whole network and presents more energy efficiency distribution compared to Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarch, Centralized Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarch, and Distance-Energy Cluster Structure approaches. {\textcopyright} 2005 - 2013 JATIT \& LLS.

These devices - called smart objects - are becoming very useful both in enterprises and in simple users daily life; in fact, they provide easy access to useful services and can collaborate with each other to build a collective intelligence capable of performing routine but very important tasks. In some critical situations, the smart objects collaborations need to be built by end users themselves in order to respond quickly to any new situational need. These collaborations can be simple or can consist of sophisticated and advanced use cases, which we call in this paper: the Enterprise Physical Mashups (EPMs). Existing work do not provide solutions for end user development of advanced use cases while addressing the requirements of a physical world. In this paper, we try to formalize the services composition aspect in the Enterprise Physical Mashup development by proposing a new rich integration language based on the advanced Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIPS). We also introduce new key concepts for an intuitive and self-explanatory methodology for end users physical services integration. Through these contributions, we give the promise of achieving efficient enterprise-class physical services integration. {\textcopyright} 2013 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l. - All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {Wireless sensor network has recently become an area of attractive research interest. It consists of low-cost, low power, and energy-constrained sensors responsible for monitoring a physical phenomenon and reporting to sink node where the end-user can access the data. Saving energy and therefore extending the wireless sensor network lifetime, involves great challenges. For these purposes, clustering techniques are largely used. Using many empirical successes of spectral clustering methods, we propose a new algorithm that we called Spectral Classification for Robust Clustering in Wireless Sensor Networks (SCRC-WSN). This protocol is a spectral partitioning method using graph theory technics with the aim to separate the network in a fixed optimal number of clusters. The cluster{\textquoteright}s nodes communicate with an elected node called cluster head, and then the cluster heads communicate the information to the base station. Defining the optimal number of clusters and changing dynamically the cluster head election probability are the SCRC-WSN strongest characteristics. In addition our proposed protocol is a centralized one witch take into account the node{\textquoteright}s residual energy to define the cluster heads. We studied the impact of node density on the robustness of the SCRC-WSN algorithm as well as its energy and its lifetime gains. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm increases the lifetime of a whole network and presents more energy efficiency distribution compared to the Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) approach and the Centralized LEACH (LEACH-C)one. {\textcopyright} 2013 IEEE.},

	abstract = {In wireless communication systems, the delay remains a crucial factor. In this work, we focus on the design of a new opportunistic cross-layer MAC protocol involving channels allocation and packet scheduling for cognitive networks in order to optimize system performance. Cognitive radio provides the opportunity for secondary users (unlicensed users) to use available portions of the licensed spectrum bands without interfering with primary users (licensed users). We consider that each secondary user is equipped with two transceivers. The role of the first transceiver is to obtain and exchange channels information on the control channel. The second transceiver is devoted to periodically detect and dynamically use the available data channels. The paper deals with channel allocation considering traffic characteristics of secondary users. So, we propose a mechanism of resource reservation to improve Quality of Service (QoS) requirements that favors successful secondary users to transmit data during x time slots without interfering with primary users. We develop a new analytical model, while taking into account the backoff mechanism. We analyze delay parameter for two scenarios with and without resource reservation. We show through simulations that our approach guarantees an optimal response delay.},

The results are expressed in terms of Meijer G-functions, which can be evaluated numerically using mathematical tools such as Mathematica and Maple.

	abstract = {Security and particularly Access control is a crucial issue for workflow management systems (WFMS). RBAC (Role based Access Control) model seems to be suitable for enforcing access control policies in such systems. However, without an effective role engineering process -at administration time- that aims to reduce conflicting situations. using RBAC could be more complex and less useful. Additionally to role engineering, a {\textquoteleft}task engineering{\textquoteright} process at run time- could be useful to allow the satisfaction of access control constraints in even critical situations. In this paper, we identify task engineering as a process to examine the granularity of each workflow{\textquoteright}s task in a way to meet at run time- the main workflow access control requirements, precisely the least privilege and separation of duties principles. Then, we propose an approach of task engineering to improve security enforcement in WFMS. This approach uses an intelligent method namely the Constraints Satisfaction Problem (CSP) formulation and resolution method.},

There is more than one Security Maturity Model (SMM, COBIT, CERT/CSO, ISM3), and each of them has only five levels of maturity, providing the blueprint for a complete security program, telling management the order in which to implement security elements (ISM3 Consortium 2007), and leading toward the use of best practice standards (e.g., BS 17799). But none of them is dedicated to National Cybersecurity. We propose in this paper a {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}National CyberSecurity Maturity Model{{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright}}, that will make it possible to evaluate the security of a country or a whole region, making thus comparisons between them, and pointing out its forces and threats.},

In order to ensure good performances of routing protocols in MANET, it is necessary to take into account the mobility criterion when choosing best routes in the network. In this paper, we propose a new measure of the network mobility which is relative and lightweight. Relative because it is directly dependent on neighboring and link state changes, and lightweight because it does not consume enough resources in memory and CPU. Each node estimates its relative mobility, based on changes of the links in its neighboring. This measure of mobility has no unit, it is independent of any existing mobility models and it is calculated at regular time intervals.},

Its originality resides in the unsupervised detection based on the mechanism of NK cell (Natural Killer cell) contrary to the existing AIS that use supervised approaches based on the mechanisms of the T and B cells. The NK cells develop the capacity to recognize the molecules of self-MHC through a unique class of receptors that can inhibit or activate its natural mechanism of the antigens elimination. In this paper, the NK system is applied to the detection of fraud in mobile phone. The experimental results axe very satisfactory instead of the very weak proportion of the fraudulent operations in our sample.},
