Social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, has become one of the most important channels for information dissemination. However, these social media platforms are often misused to spread rumors, which has brought about severe social…
Data management using Device-to-Device (D2D) communications and opportunistic networks (ONs) is one of the main focuses of human-centric pervasive Internet services. In the recently proposed "Internet of People" paradigm, accessing relevant…
This research examines the propagation of rumors on social networks during public health emergencies and explores strategies to effectively manage false information in cyberspace. Using a simulation model, the study analyzes the impact of…
Online Social Networks (OSNs) are used by millions of users worldwide. Academically speaking, there is little doubt about the usefulness of demographic studies conducted on OSNs and, hence, methods to label unknown users from small labeled…
We evaluate the outage probability and the energy efficiency (EE) of a LoRa network when the end-devices (EDs) are capable of exchanging messages with a device-to-device (D2D) technology. Our proposal is to assess the performance of the…
In this paper, we consider device-to-device (D2D) communications as an underlay to the cellular networks over both licensed and unlicensed spectrum, where Long Term Evolution (LTE) users utilize the spectrum orthogonally while D2D users…
In this paper, we consider the use of cross-layer network coding (CLNC), caching, and device-to-device (D2D) communications to jointly optimize the delivery of a set of popular contents to a set of user devices (UDs). In the considered D2D…
Smartphones have become extremely popular by launching wide ubiquitous networks. Nowadays studying of DTN Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) and Opportunistic Networks where formed over these mobile nodes, is one of the interesting topics in the…
The susceptibility of millimeter waveform propagation to blockages limits the coverage of millimeter-wave (mmWave) signals. To overcome blockages, we propose to leverage two-hop device-to-device (D2D) relaying. Using stochastic geometry, we…
In the future, with the advent of Internet of Things (IoT), wireless sensors, and multiple 5G killer applications, an indoor room might be filled with $1000$s of devices demanding low data rates. Such high-level densification and mobility…
Conventional online social networks (OSNs) are implemented in a centralized manner. Although centralization is a convenient way for implementing OSNs, it has several well known drawbacks. Chief among them are the risks they pose to the…
Online social networks (OSN) are prime examples of socio-technical systems in which individuals interact via a technical platform. OSN are very volatile because users enter and exit and frequently change their interactions. This makes the…
This paper proposes a spectrum selection scheme and a transmit power minimization scheme for a device-to-device (D2D) network cross-laid with a cloud radio access network (CRAN). The D2D communications are allowed as an overlay to the CRAN…
Recently, deep neural network (DNN) has been widely adopted in the design of intelligent communication systems thanks to its strong learning ability and low testing complexity. However, most current offline DNN-based methods still suffer…
The burst in the use of online social networks over the last decade has provided evidence that current rumor spreading models miss some fundamental ingredients in order to reproduce how information is disseminated. In particular, recent…
The increasing traffic demand in cellular networks has recently led to the investigation of new strategies to save precious resources like spectrum and energy. Direct device-to-device (D2D) communication becomes a promising solution if the…
Information can propagate among Online Social Network (OSN) users at a high speed, which makes the OSNs become important platforms for viral marketing. Although the viral marketing related problems in OSNs have been extensively studied in…
We consider a wireless device-to-device (D2D) network where the nodes have pre-cached information from a library of available files. Nodes request files at random. If the requested file is not in the on-board cache, then it is downloaded…
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is a promising solution to meet the growing demands of 5G and future 6G networks by enabling direct communication between user devices. It enhances spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE),…
Over the past decade, online social networks (OSNs) such as Twitter and Facebook have thrived and experienced rapid growth to over 1 billion users. A major evolution would be to leverage the characteristics of OSNs to evaluate the…
