A scalable solution for finding overlaps between sequences using map-reduce
( The International Society for Computers and Their Applications (ISCA) , 2016 , Conference Paper)The overlap stage of a string graph-based assembler is considered one of the most time- and space-consuming stages in any de novo overlap-based assembler. This is due to the huge output of the next-generation sequencing ... -
Image stitching system with scanning microscopy for histopathological applications
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)Histopathological analysis of biopsy or surgical specimen is a common clinical practice for diagnostic purposes. Essentially, the process involves slicing the biopsy or surgical sample into very thin slices, placing them ... -
Using block cipher for confidentiality of images in cloud-based systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)This paper deals with outsourcing of computing to cloud servers where clients' images are computed and stored. It proposes a technique that obfuscates images before sending them to servers. Cloud servers can perform ... -
Similarity Group-by Operators for Multi-Dimensional Relational Data
( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)The SQL group-by operator plays an important role in summarizing and aggregating large datasets in a data analytics stack. While the standard group-by operator, which is based on equality, is useful in several applications, ... -
Reasoning about Policies in Security-Aware Service Discovery Using Answer Set Programming
( World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd , 2016 , Article)In order to enable a secure interaction between dynamically discovered software services and the client's application in a cooperative information system such as service oriented system, one of the pre-requisites is the ... -
A novel multi-hop body-To-body routing protocol for disaster and emergency networks
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)In this paper, a new multi-hop routing protocol (called ORACE-Net) for disaster and emergency networks is proposed. The proposed hierarchical protocol creates an ad-hoc network through body-To-body (B2B) communication ... -
An efficient instance hiding scheme
( Association for Computing Machinery , 2016 , Conference Paper)Delegating computation, which is applicable to many practical contexts such as cloud computing or pay-TV system, concerns the task where a computationally weak client wants to securely compute a very complex function f on ... -
Group owner election in Wi-Fi direct
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)Wi-Fi Direct is a new protocol that standardizes the direct communication between Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices without requiring an access point. The specification proposes enhanced peer-to-peer functions to be supported ... -
Green operator cooperation for radio frequency transmission minimization
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)The increasing demand for reliable mobile services with faster communications speed requires high capital investment in the radio access networks. This leads to enormous energy consumption, high operational costs (OPEX), ... -
ECG encryption and identification based security solution on the Zynq SoC for connected health systems
( Academic Press Inc. , 2017 , Article)Connected health is a technology that associates medical devices, security devices and communication technologies. It enables patients to be monitored and treated remotely from their home. Patients' data and medical records ... -
PriviPK: Certificate-less and secure email communication
( Elsevier Ltd , 2017 , Article)We introduce PriviPK, an infrastructure that is based on a novel combination of certificateless (CL) cryptography and key transparency techniques to enable e2e email encryption. Our design avoids (1) key escrow and deployment ... -
Context-aware RAON middleware for opportunistic network
( Elsevier B.V. , 2017 , Article)Application development and deployment on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is a major challenge in the widespread use of MANET. The increasing D2D communication in 5G networks has renewed interest in an effective middleware ... -
Data confidentiality in cloud-based pervasive system
( Association for Computing Machinery , 2017 , Conference Paper)Data confidentiality and privacy is a serious concern in pervasive systems where cloud computing is used to process huge amount of data such as matrix multiplications typically used in HPC. Due to limited processing ... -
Role updating in information systems using model checking
( Springer London , 2017 , Article)The role-based access control (RBAC) has significantly simplified the management of users and permissions in information systems. In dynamic environments, systems are constantly undergoing changes, and accordingly, the ... -
Enabling broadcast communications in presence of jamming via probabilistic pairing
( Elsevier B.V. , 2017 , Article)This paper presents a thorough analysis of Freedom of Speech (FoS): a lightweight, fully distributed, and probabilistic protocol that assures the delivery of a message to be broadcast notwithstanding the presence of a ... -
Survey of Information Visualization Techniques for Enhancing Visual Analysis
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)Visualization of data helps to transform a problem into a perceptual task that is easier to comprehend. It helps users to perceive patterns from large amount of data in order to make informed decisions. When visualization ... -
