Internet mobile users concern more and more about their privacy nowadays as both researches and real world incidents show leaking of communication and location privacy can lead to serious consequence, and many researches have been done to anonymize individual user from aggregated location data. However just the communication itself between mobile user and their peers or website could leak considerable...
Supporting end-to-end quality of services for real-time interactive video applications such as videoconferencing and distance learning across the Internet requires a collection of independent networks or domains to work together to route packets between source and destination. Routing packets across the Internet using a feasible path - a path that meets the quality of service (QoS) attributes of video...
Although many solutions have been proposed from both industry and academia, pricing the Internet services is still an ongoing research problem for researchers. In this paper, we propose an optimal pricing scheme for inter-AS traffic requests with QoS made by customers in Software Defined Networks (SDNs). This pricing scheme exploits the Nash bargaining problem which aims to maximize benefits of both...
The increasing development of health social networks (HSN) in recent years has led the fast growing of user-generated contents. People tend to interact and share health information in social networks. However, the trustworthiness of information is the major concern in shared health information in social networks. Viral rumor-spreading that can happen quite rapidly in social media can cause damages...
The support for mobility is a major requirement for the next Internet. Although several mobility solutions are proposed, none of them has been largely deployed, due to various impediments, among which, non being economically viable, we believe is the principal one. We propose a business oriented mobility framework - Mobility Support Service (MSS), that will facilitate mobility on the Internet. MSS...
The last 40 years of research has matured packet switching technology as a key communication primitive. Its key use context, the Internet, has been phenomenally successful. From its humble beginning as a research network, it has evolved into a critical infrastructure for the development of businesses, societies, and nations. The Internet??s most popular application, the World Wide Web, has powered...
The importance of mobility in networks is being increased together with its number of users and applications. However, we still do not have broadly accepted solutions for mobility in Internet or other type of networks. In particular, mobility is difficult in heterogeneous networks, where heterogeneity could expand over ownership, administration, technology, and so on. We propose for such heterogeneous...
Spatial and temporal variations in network bandwidth constraints constitute serious challenges to the multicast distribution of real-time video content. We present a video multicast algorithm that combines multi-layered video encoding with feedback-based source adaptation in order to address varying bandwidth constraints in a multicast tree. The proposed algorithm uses a novel multicast flow control...
User modelling in on-line distance learning is an important research field focusing on two important aspects: describing and predicting students' actions and intentions as well as adapting the learning process to students' features, habits, preferences, and so on. The aim is to greatly stimulate and improve the learning experience. Indeed, on the one hand, students' intentions may change during the...
