    (wiley, 2022) Pandey, C.; Sahu, Y.K.; Kannan, N.; Rashid Mahmood, M.R.; Sethy, P.K.; Behera, S.K.
    Recent years have seen increasing curiosity among users in migrating their cloud computing and internet-of-things apps. Cloud-based and internet-of-things infra-structures require specialized hardware to enable software and advanced manage-ment strategies to improve performance. Adaptability and autonomous learning capabilities are highly valuable in facilitating the configuration and complex transition of these infrastructures to customers' changing demands and designing adaptable applications. This capacity to self-adapt is increasingly essential, particularly for nonexpert managers and autonomous device applications. Cloud Networking (CN) and the Internet of Things (IoT) have arisen as modern outlets for the ICT movement of the 21st century. In this paper, we carry out a survey of nearly 183 articles on which the latest methodologies have been applied. Also, we discuss the proposed approaches and the reported advantages and limitations. The goal of this survey paper is to offer a brief idea to researchers working in this area. In order to consider the present and future challenges of such a framework, it is important to recognize critical innovations that will allow future implementa-tions. This article examines how three new paradigms (cloud computing, IoT, and artificial intelligence) can affect workspace and business. Also, we describe a range of innovations that propel these paradigms and encourage experts to address the current state and perspective directions. © 2023 Scrivener Publishing LLC.

    Hybrid Malicious Encrypted Network Traffic Flow Detection Model
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2023) Hublikar, S.; Shet, N.S.V.
    Encrypted communication technology has evolved as the network, and Internet applications have advanced. Malicious communication, on the other hand, employs encryption to bypass standard detection and security protection. The existing security prevention and detection technologies are unable to identify harmful communication that is encrypted. The growth of artificial intelligence (AI) in these days has enabled to employ machine learning (ML) as well as deep learning approaches to identify encrypted malicious communications without decryption, with remarkably precise detection outcomes. At this moment, research on detecting harmful encrypted traffic is mostly focused on analyzing the features of encrypted data and selecting neural network (NN) techniques. Hybrid ML is proposed in this study by merging two well-performing data mining algorithms with natural language processing tasks. Here, a new traffic flow detection method is performed by the hybrid ML technique. At first, the benchmark data is collected from public sources. The features are extracted using the convolutional layer of deep convolutional neural network (DCNN). Then, the weighted feature extraction is performed by grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA). Employed the hybrid machine learning-based malicious detection with the “support vector machine (SVM) and neural network (NN)” is utilized in this model to detect the traffic affected by malicious activities, where the hidden neuron count of NN and kernel of SVM are tuning by the same GOA for increasing the accuracy and precision. This research provides findings from experiment, encouraging various researchers to develop the research as future work. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Using genetic algorithm for process migration in multicore kernels
    (Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2017) Shravya, K.S.; Deepak, A.; Chandrasekaran, K.
    Process migration is used in multicore operating systems to improve their performance. The implementation of the migration event contributes largely to the performance of the scheduling algorithm and hence decides how effective a multicore kernel is. There have been several effective algorithms which decide how a process can be migrated from one core to another in a multicore operating system. This paper looks further into the mechanism of process migration in multicore operating systems. The main aim of this paper is not to answer how the process migration should take place but it aims to answer when process migration should take place and to decide the site of process migration. For this, an artificial intelligence concept called genetic algorithm is used. Genetic algorithm works on the theory of survival of the fittest to find an optimally good solution during decision making phase. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2017.

    Enhancing Healthcare AI with Cross-Silo Personalized Federated Learning on Naturally Split Heterogeneous Data
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024) Mukeshbhai, A.N.; Annappa, B.; Sachin, D.N.
    The potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in health-care is unavoidable. However, its success depends on the availabil-ity of large, high-quality datasets. Because of data heterogeneity across institutions and privacy concerns, traditional centralized Machine Learning (ML) approaches often face difficulties in this field. Federated Learning (FL) allows collaborative model training without requiring the transfer of sensitive patient data from the original institution. Recent research in FL within the healthcare domain has predominantly relied on centralized datasets, which do not represent real-time data heterogeneity and made assumptions by random data splitting to different medical client institutions. Additionally, it may be challenging for a single global model to encompass the diverse characteristics of various healthcare settings accurately. This paper examines the application of Personalized Federated Learning (PFL) in realistic cross-silo healthcare scenarios with federated natural split datasets in different medical client institutions. This paper discusses the experiments conducted on brain segmentation, survival prediction, melanoma classification, and heart disease di-agnosis. Our experiments show that the proposed PFL techniques consistently improve local model performance over standard FL strategies by up to 10% in different medical use cases. © 2024 IEEE.

    Classification of Longitudinal Driving Events Using Vehicle Response Signals for Profiling Driving Behaviors
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2025) Arichandran, R.; Krishnakar, H.S.; Kumar, A.; Mohan, M.
    Driving behavior profiling (DBP) involves evaluating driving patterns to determine a safety score for drivers. Proper classification of driving events increases the accuracy of profiling driving behaviors. Most driving event classification models consider lateral driving events, such as turning and lane changes. In heavy traffic conditions, it is impossible to perform lateral events independent of the position of other vehicles. This research aims to develop a model for classifying longitudinal driving events (acceleration and braking) and nonevents using vehicle response signals. To develop the model, naturalistic driving data were collected using a passenger car on a 19 km road stretch. Vehicle response signals were collected using Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors fixed on the test vehicle with a frequency of approximately 200 Hz with timestamps. The driver’s pedal operation was also captured with timestamps using a camera to map the ground truth labels with vehicle response signals. The data were collected from 5 drivers, totaling a dataset for approximately 190 km. The start and end times of all 634 events (444 driving events and 190 nonevents) were used to label the driving events in the IMU sensor data. These labeled driving events were split into the train (476 events) and test (158 events) datasets. Hidden Markov Model (HMM) algorithm was used to develop classification models for the driving events. The models were developed for various combinations of accelerations using the training dataset. The accuracy of these models was then compared to a test dataset. The models achieved 90.99% and 77.08% accuracy, respectively, in classifying events and nonevents using data from the accelerometer. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.
