    Energy efficient and reliable network design to improve lifetime of low power IoT networks
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Sarwesh, P.; Shekar, N.; Shet, V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things is smart technology that is used in wide range of applications, IoT converges physical devices with cyber systems to facilitate global information sharing. In IoT network, devices are constrained by energy (limited by battery power). Thus, efficient energy utilization is the major challenge in low power IoT networks. In this paper, energy efficient and reliable network architecture is proposed to improve the lifetime of IoT networks. In proposed network architecture, routing technique and node placement technique are effectively integrated to address energy and reliability related issues. In node placement technique, density of sensor nodes are hierarchically varied to balance the energy consumption and reliability related parameters are included in routing mechanism. Hence, effective combination of these two techniques in single network architecture prolongs the lifetime of the network. In proposed work, sensor nodes and relay nodes, sensors do sensing and relay nodes handles path computation and data transmission. We included IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC radio and IPv6 module in proposed work to adopt IoT Scenario. From our results, it is observed that proposed architecture prolongs the lifetime of low power IoT network. © 2017 IEEE.

    Effective integration of reliable routing mechanism and energy efficient node placement technique for low power IoT networks
    (IGI Global cust@igi-global.com, 2017) Sarwesh, P.; Shet, N.S.V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things (IoT) is the emerging technology that links physical devices (sensor devices) with cyber systems and allows global sharing of information. In IoT applications, devices are operated by battery power and low power radio links, which are constrained by energy. In this paper, node placement technique and routing mechanism are effectively integrated in single network architecture to prolong the lifetime of IoT network. In proposed network architecture, sensor node and relay node are deployed, sensor nodes are responsible for collecting the environmental data and relay nodes are responsible for data aggregation and path computation. In node placement technique, densities of relay nodes are varied based on traffic area, to prevent energy hole problem. In routing technique, energy efficient and reliable path computation is done to reduce number of re transmissions. To adopt IoT scenario, we included IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC radio and IPv6 packet structure in proposed network architecture. Proposed work result shows, proposed architecture prolongs network lifetime. © © 2017, IGI Global.

    ETRT – Cross layer model for optimizing transmission range of nodes in low power wireless networks – An Internet of Things Perspective
    (Elsevier B.V., 2018) Sarwesh, P.; Shet, N.S.V.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Internet of Things network is managed by battery operated devices and low power radio links since they are referred to low power networks. In present communication era, many research works are concentrating on low power wireless network. Cross layer design is one of the acclaimed technique that decidedly improves the network performance. In this article, we come up with the cross-layer model that satisfies distinct network requirements and prolongs network lifetime. It integrates physical layer, data link layer (Media Access Control) and network layer in the protocol stack. In our model, a threshold value called ETRT (Expected Transmission Range Threshold) is introduced, which is computed with the help of routing information. Later, MAC based power control technique utilizes the ETRT value and assigns optimum transmission range for every node. The idea at the heels of proposed cross layer model is estimating the capability (ETRT value) of the particular node and assigning the suitable transmission power for every node, based on its capability (ETRT value). Hence, assigning optimum transmission power based on ETRT information prolongs the network lifetime with better reliability and Quality of Service(QoS). From our results, it is noticed that the ETRT based cross layer model performs twice better than the standard model. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.

    CREW: Cost and Reliability aware Eagle-Whale optimiser for service placement in Fog
    (John Wiley and Sons Ltd cs-journals@wiley.co.uk, 2020) Paul Martin, J.; Kandasamy, A.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Integration of Internet of Things (IoT) with industries revamps the traditional ways in which industries work. Fog computing extends Cloud services to the vicinity of end users. Fog reduces delays induced by communication with the distant clouds in IoT environments. The resource constrained nature of Fog computing nodes demands an efficient placement policy for deploying applications, or their services. The distributed and heterogeneous features of Fog environments deem it imperative to consider the reliability performance parameter in placement decisions to provide services without interruptions. Increasing reliability leads to an increase in the cost. In this article, we propose a service placement policy which addresses the conflicting criteria of service reliability and monetary cost. A multiobjective optimisation problem is formulated and a novel placement policy, Cost and Reliability-aware Eagle-Whale (CREW), is proposed to provide placement decisions ensuring timely service responses. Considering the exponentially large solution space, CREW adopts Eagle strategy based multi-Whale optimisation for taking placement decisions. We have considered real time microservice applications for validating our approaches, and CREW has been experimentally shown to outperform the existing popular multiobjective meta-heuristics such as NSGA-II and MOWOA based placement strategies. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd

    A hierarchical blockchain architecture for secure data sharing for vehicular networks
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2023) Srinivasan, K.S.; Divakarla, U.; Chandrasekaran, K.; Reddy, K.H.K.
    Data sharing is common phenomenon between the stakeholders within an organization and it is vital to sustain in the context of application. Internet of Things (IoT) is an umbrella of all applications’ online services like smart city, smart agriculture, smart grid and smart vehicles. In case of autonomous vehicular network (AVN), the data generated by vehicles, sensing units and road side units (RSU) is sensitive in nature so, secure data sharing (SDS) in AVN is the prime importance. In the area of SDS, Blockchain is gaining popularity which is an immutable distributed ledger technology and emerged as one of the prime solutions towards secure data sharing. As an innovative contribution, we proposedBlockchain based hierarchical secure data sharing model for sharing within vehicular network (VN). The proposed architecture is able to share road traffic related information e.g., road conditions, traffic congestion with the nearby vehicles and other stakeholders in the vehicular network. The performance of the proposed model is analyzed by using a simulation study and the efficacy of the simulated results outperforms than that of existing models. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Bharati Vidyapeeth's Institute of Computer Applications and Management.
