The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm makes the Internet more pervasive, interconnecting objects of everyday life, and is a promising solution for the development of next- generation services. Smart cities exploit the most advanced information technologies to improve and add value to existing public services. Applying the IoT paradigm to smart citi...

As the integration of smart mobile devices to the Internet of Things (IoT) applications is becoming widespread, mobile device usage, interactions with other devices, and mobility patterns of users carry significant amount of information about the daily routines of the users who are in possession of these devices. This rich set of data, if observed...

Deployments of Cyber Physical Systems (CPSs) in smart cities are poised to significantly improve healthcare, transportation services, utilities, safety, and environmental health. However, these efficiencies and service improvements will come at a price: increased vulnerability and risk. Smart city deployments have already begun to proliferate, as h...

In this paper, we propose a new continuous verification platform on smart mobile devices. To this end, we integrate gesture-based features with interaction with social networking apps to verify user identities without minimum requirement for a password, pin code or biometric means. The continuous verification subsystem of this work proposes a novel...

SOBER-MCS uses sociability and the residual power of the participant smartphones as two primary criteria in the selection of participating devices. The former is an indicator of the participant willingness toward sensing campaigns, whereas the latter is used to prioritize personal use over crowd-sensing under critical battery levels. We use sociabi...

Technology is the combination of knowledge and working hard. When users want to accomplish something using special technology, they do not want to know how it works. Technologies are coming to solve and ease our complex problems. It means that users only want to employ technology without any expert skills. Distributed computing is one of the techno...

The advantages of using virtualization can be impaired if it can not deliver sufficient performance. Running applications in virtualized environment incur performance overheads regarding to the virtualization functionalities like initialization virtual machine image, the booting time of virtual machine, starting, pausing and turning off the virtual...

Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) have become the seat of researchers' attention recently due to their proficiency to explore underwater areas and design different applications for marine discovery and oceanic surveillance. One of the main objectives of each deployed underwater network is discovering the optimized path over sensor nodes t...
