In this paper, we propose an architecture for a security-aware workflow management system (WfMS) we call SecFlow in answer to the recent developments of combining workflow management systems with Cloud environments and the still lacking…
In most PUF-based authentication schemes, a central server is usually engaged to verify the response of the device's PUF to challenge bit-streams. However, the server availability may be intermittent in practice. To tackle such an issue,…
Social networks, instant messages and file sharing systems are common communication means among friends, families, coworkers, etc. Due to concerns of personal privacy, identify thefts, data misuse, freedom of speech and government…
Increasingly Industrial Control Systems (ICS) systems are being connected to the Internet to minimise the operational costs and provide additional flexibility. These control systems such as the ones used in power grids, manufacturing and…
Coordinated and targeted cyber-attacks to Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are becoming more and more frequent and sophisticated. This is due to: i) the recent technology shift towards Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products, and ii) new…
More and more latency-sensitive services and applications are being deployed into the data center. Performance can be limited by the high latency of the network interconnect. Because the conventional network stack is designed not only for…
Improvements in software defined networking allow for policy to be informed and modified by data-driven applications that can adjust policy to accommodate fluctuating requirements at line speed. However, there is some concern that…
Voice over IP (VOIP) has strict Quality of Service (QoS) constraints and requires real-time packet delivery, which poses a major challenge to IP networks. The Cognitive Packet Network (CPN) has been designed as a QoS-driven protocol that…
This dissertation has extensively looked into all aspects of VoIP commu-nications technology, and information presented in preceding chapters, which build up a solid framework to discuss the conceptual design model, and investigate features…
Cybersecurity is being fundamentally reshaped by foundation-model-based artificial intelligence. Large language models now enable autonomous planning, tool orchestration, and strategic adaptation at scale, challenging security architectures…
This paper presents a framework for converting wireless signals into structured datasets, which can be fed into machine learning algorithms for the detection of active eavesdropping attacks at the physical layer. More specifically, a…
As the industrial cyber-infrastructure become increasingly important to realise the objectives of Industry~4.0, the consequence of disruption due to internal or external faults become increasingly severe. Thus there is a need for a…
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has emerged as a standardized interface enabling seamless integration between Large Language Models (LLMs) and external data sources and tools. While MCP significantly reduces development complexity and…
This article describes our strategy for deploying self-forming ad hoc networks based on the Internet Protocol version 6 and evaluates the dynamics of this proposal. Among others, we suggest a technique called adaptive routing that provides…
With the development of Internet of Things (IoT), it is gaining a lot of attention. It is important to secure the embedded systems with low overhead. The Linux Seccomp is widely used by developers to secure the kernels by blocking the…
For the past three decades, the architecture of the internet has rested on two primary pillars - communication on the World Wide Web and Value such as Bitcoin/Distributed ledgers. However, a third critical pillar, Private Coordination has…
Hardware vulnerabilities are generally considered more difficult to fix than software ones because they are persistent after fabrication. Thus, it is crucial to assess the security and fix the vulnerabilities at earlier design phases, such…
Recent initiatives known as Future Internet Architectures (FIAs) seek to redesign the Internet to improve performance, scalability, and security. However, some governments perceive Internet access as a threat to their political standing and…
Software-defined networking (SDN) has become a fundamental technology for data centers and 5G networks. In an SDN network, routing and traffic management decisions are made by a centralized controller and communicated to switches via a…
Building reliable applications for the cloud is challenging because of unpredictable failures during a program's execution. This paper presents a programming framework called Reliable State Machines (RSMs), that offers fault-tolerance by…
