Item Context Aware VM Placement Optimization Technique for Heterogeneous IaaS Cloud(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Kulkarni, A.K.; Annappa, A.Ever increasing demand for cloud adoption is prompting researchers and engineers around the world to make cloud computing more efficient and beneficial for cloud service providers and users. Cloud computing brings profits for all when the cloud infrastructure is used efficiently, and its services are made affordable to businesses of all scales. Managing cloud data center incurs a significant cost, which includes investing in IT infrastructure at the beginning and data center management costs for power, repair, space, and so on at later stages. The power costs are contributing to a significant share in overall data center management costs, and saving in power consumption can help reduce management costs for data center owners. This paper proposes an efficient context-aware adaptive heuristic-based solution for the virtual machine (VM) placement optimization in the heterogeneous cloud data centers. The proposed VM placement technique takes into the account of physical machine characteristics and load (peak and non-peak) conditions in the heterogeneous data centers to save power and also improve performance efficiency for data center owners. The experiments conducted with real cloud workloads and also synthetic workloads against a well-known adaptive heuristic-based technique indicate significant performance improvements and energy saving with our proposed solution. © 2013 IEEE.Item Autonomic resource management framework for virtualised environments(Inderscience Publishers, 2019) Raghunath, B.R.; Annappa, A.Virtualisation enables multiples virtual machines (VMs) to co-locate on a same physical machine with total isolation. Hence using VMs to launch web services or applications is the common trend nowadays in enterprise information technology (IT). Data centre provides infrastructure to create, configure and manage VMs. It has seen as a utility that clients can pay for only as needed. The growing complexity of modern networked computer systems with virtualisation technology necessitates the needs efficient resource management. We have proposed an intelligent resource manager to control the resource allocation in Xen virtualised environment for dynamically allocating resources to individual VM. Our resource management architecture comprises of fuzzy logic based controller. Experimental results shows that with the proposed system data centre can efficiently allocate CPU resources to VMs that have been produced by customers. The scaling of CPU resources is automatically done in accordance with dynamically changing workload at a minimum granularity of 2 seconds. It improves the resource utilisation by 30% as compared to the ideal method while maintaining throughput as equivalent to the ideal workload allocation. © 2019 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.Item Data privacy preservation using aes-gcm encryption in Heroku cloud(Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering and Sciences Publication, 2019) Das, P.K.; Sinha, N.; Annappa, A.The increasing popularity of cloud data storage and its ever-rising versatility, shows that cloud computing is one of the most widely excepted phenomena. It not only helps with powerful computing facilities but also reduce a huge amount of computational cost. And with such high demand for storage has raised the growth of the cloud service industry that provides an affordable, easy-to-use and remotely-accessible services. But like every other emerging technology it carries some inherent security risks associated and cloud storage is no exception. The prime reason behind it is that users have to blindly trust the third parties while storing the useful information, which may not work in the best of interest. Hence, to ensure the privacy of sensitive information is primarily important for any public, third-party cloud. In this paper, we mainly focus on proposing a secure cloud framework with encrypting sensitive data’s using AES-GCM cryptographic techniques in HEROKU cloud platform. Here we tried to implement Heroku as a cloud computing platform, used the AES-GCM algorithm and evaluate the performance of the said algorithm. Moreover, analyses the performance of AES/GCM execution time with respect to given inputs of data. © BEIESP.Item Performance prediction of data streams on high-performance architecture(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019) Gautam, B.; Annappa, A.Worldwide sensor streams are expanding continuously with unbounded velocity in volume, and for this acceleration, there is an adaptation of large stream data processing system from the homogeneous to rack-scale architecture which makes serious concern in the domain of workload optimization, scheduling, and resource management algorithms. Our proposed framework is based on providing architecture independent performance prediction model to enable resource adaptive distributed stream data processing platform. It is comprised of seven pre-defined domain for dynamic data stream metrics including a self-driven model which tries to fit these metrics using ridge regularization regression algorithm. Another significant contribution lies in fully-automated performance prediction model inherited from the state-of-the-art distributed data management system for distributed stream processing systems using Gaussian processes regression that cluster metrics with the help of dimensionality reduction algorithm. We implemented its base on Apache Heron and evaluated with proposed Benchmark Suite comprising of five domain-specific topologies. To assess the proposed methodologies, we forcefully ingest tuple skewness among the benchmarking topologies to set up the ground truth for predictions and found that accuracy of predicting the performance of data streams increased up to 80.62% from 66.36% along with the reduction of error from 37.14 to 16.06%. © 2019, The Author(s).Item Real-time big data analytics framework with data blending approach for multiple data sources in smart city applications(West University of Timisoara, 2020) Manjunatha, S.; Annappa, A.Advancement in Information Communication Technology (ICT) and the Internet of Things (IoT) has to lead to the continuous generation of a large amount of data. Smart city projects are being implemented in various parts of the world where analysis of public data helps in providing a better quality of life. Data analytics plays a vital role in many such data-driven applications. Real-time analytics for finding valuable insights at the right time using smart city data is crucial in making appropriate decisions for city administration. It is essential to use multiple data sources as input for the analysis to achieve better and more accurate data-driven solutions. It helps in finding more accurate solutions and making appropriate decisions. Public safety is one of the major concerns in any smart city project in which real-time analytics is much useful in the early detection of valuable data patterns. It is crucial to find early predictions of crime-related incidents and generating emergency alerts for making appropriate decisions to provide security to the people and safety of the city infrastructure. This paper discusses the proposed real-time big data analytics framework with data blending approach using multiple data sources for smart city applications. Analytics using multiple data sources for a specific data-driven solution helps in finding more data patterns, which in turn increases the accuracy of analytics results. The data preprocessing phase is a challenging task in data analytics when data being ingested continuously in real-time into the analytics system. The proposed system helps in the preprocessing of real-time data with data blending of multiple data sources used in the analytics. The proposed framework is beneficial when data from multiple sources are ingested in real-time as input data and is also flexible to use any additional data source of interest. The experimental work carried out with the proposed framework using multiple data sources to find the crime-related insights in real-time helps the public safety solutions in the smart city. The experimental outcome shows that there is a significant increase in the number of identified useful data patterns as the number of data sources increases. A real-time based emergency alert system to help the public safety solution is implemented using a machine learning-based classification algorithm with the proposed framework. The experiment is carried out with different classification algorithms, and the results show that Naive Bayes classification performs better in generating emergency alerts. © 2020 SCPE.Item Real-time emergency event detection system for public safety using multi-source data(Science and Engineering Research Support Society ijbsbt@sersc.org PO Box 5014Sandy Bay TAS 7005 Tasmania, 2020) Manjunatha, S.; Annappa, A.Public safety is an essential service offered in smart city projects to provide better safety and security for individuals and city infrastructure. The advancement in the field of Information Technology and the Internet of Things created much scope for using smart applications in the city to enhance the quality of service, leading to a better life in cities. This digitization generates a large amount of data within the city from distinct sources like social media, IoT, sensors, any user-generated content from smart applications. The data generated within the city are analyzed to discover valuable insights for producing better data-driven decisions and predictions, that are more crucial for efficient city administration. Making quick decisions and early predictions of crimes by real-time analysis of data help the smart policing system to provide better services in the city. This paper describes the scope of real-time big data analytics for finding appro-priate predictions and making quick decisions for public safety. A real-time big data analytics framework using multiple data sources is proposed for the smart policing service in the smart city environment. The framework is used to design a real-time emergency events detection system to help city administrators in taking quick actions for the safety of people and city infrastructure. The proposed system achieved an average accuracy of 73% for emergency event classification. © 2020 SERSC.Item Text-mining-based Fake News Detection Using Ensemble Methods(Chinese Academy of Sciences, 2020) Reddy, H.; Raj, N.; Gala, M.; Annappa, A.Social media is a platform to express one’s views and opinions freely and has made communication easier than it was before. This also opens up an opportunity for people to spread fake news intentionally. The ease of access to a variety of news sources on the web also brings the problem of people being exposed to fake news and possibly believing such news. This makes it important for us to detect and flag such content on social media. With the current rate of news generated on social media, it is difficult to differentiate between genuine news and hoaxes without knowing the source of the news. This paper discusses approaches to detection of fake news using only the features of the text of the news, without using any other related metadata. We observe that a combination of stylometric features and text-based word vector representations through ensemble methods can predict fake news with an accuracy of up to 95.49%. © 2020, Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.Item Machine Learning-Based Identification of Colon Cancer Candidate Diagnostics Genes(MDPI, 2022) Koppad, S.; Annappa, A.; Nash, K.; Gkoutos, G.V.; Acharjee, A.Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death and the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. Due to a lack of diagnostic biomarkers and understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms, CRC’s mortality rate continues to grow. CRC occurrence and progression are dynamic processes. The expression levels of specific molecules vary at various stages of CRC, rendering its early detection and diagnosis challenging and the need for identifying accurate and meaningful CRC biomarkers more pressing. The advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have been used to explore novel gene expression, targeted treatments, and colon cancer pathogenesis. Such approaches are routinely being applied and result in large datasets whose analysis is increasingly becoming dependent on machine learning (ML) algorithms that have been demonstrated to be computationally efficient platforms for the identification of variables across such high-dimensional datasets. Methods: We developed a novel ML-based experimental design to study CRC gene associations. Six different machine learning methods were employed as classifiers to identify genes that can be used as diagnostics for CRC using gene expression and clinical datasets. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F1 score, and area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve were derived to explore the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) for CRC diagnosis. Gene ontology enrichment analyses of these DEGs were performed and predicted gene signatures were linked with miRNAs. Results: We evaluated six machine learning classification methods (Adaboost, ExtraTrees, logistic regression, naïve Bayes classifier, random forest, and XGBoost) across different combinations of training and test datasets over GEO datasets. The accuracy and the AUROC of each combination of training and test data with different algorithms were used as comparison metrics. Random forest (RF) models consistently performed better than other models. In total, 34 genes were identified and used for pathway and gene set enrichment analysis. Further mapping of the 34 genes with miRNA identified interesting miRNA hubs genes. Conclusions: We identified 34 genes with high accuracy that can be used as a diagnostics panel for CRC. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
