Smartwatch-based keystroke inference attacks and context-aware protection mechanisms
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2016)Wearable devices, such as smartwatches, are furnished with state-of-the-art sensors that enable a range of context-aware applications. However, malicious applications can misuse these sensors, if access is left unaudited. ... -
Smooth shunt control of a Fuzzy based distributed power flow controller to improve power quality
(IEEE, 2016)Presently, the quality of power supplied is essential to many customers. Power quality (PQ) is a valued utility service where many customers are prepared to pay and get it. In the future, distribution system operators ought ... -
Social puzzles: context-based access control in online social networks
(IEEE, 2014-06-23)The increasing popularity of online social networks (OSNs) is spawning new security and privacy concerns. Currently, a majority of OSNs offer very naive access control mechanisms that are primarily based on static access ... -

Solar power prediction in different forecasting horizons using machine learning and time series techniques
(IEEE, 2021-07-01)Solar power generation is highly intermittent, nonlinear, and variable in nature. The increase in penetration level of solar energy resources poses technical challenges. An accurate forecasting model is crucial to minimizing ... -
Spatial calibration for thermal-RGB cameras and inertial sensor system
(IEEE, 2018)The light-weight thermal-RGB-inertial sensing units are now gaining increasing research attention, due to their heterogeneous and complementary properties. A robust and accurate registration between a thermal-RGB camera ... -
Spreading-sequence design for partially connected multirelay networks under multipath fading
(IEEE, 2016-03)Multipath fading can degrade the performance of a wireless communication system significantly when the data rate is as high as those systems beyond Long-Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A). To combat the multipath-fading ... -
SSIoT: Energy-efficient optimal Admission Control for Body Area Networks
(IEEE, 2020-06-30)This paper proposes an optimal Admission Control (AC) scheme for Body Area Networks (BANs). The scheme captures BAN characteristics, such as limited buffer size and power consumption of sensor nodes, and QoS-sensitive ... -
Stacked conical-cylindrical hybrid Dielectric Resonator Antenna for improved ultrawide bandwidth
(EMW Publishing, 2018)Conical and cylindrical dielectric resonator elements are vertically stacked and excited by a simple coaxial monopole. Compared to all earlier configurations, the proposed geometry significantly improves the impedance ... -
Statistical estimation of route expiry times in on-demand ad hoc routing protocols
(IEEE, 2005-11-07)On-demand routing protocols discover routes only when the source node has a packet to send to the destination. These protocols cache previously discovered routes in order to reduce the routing overheads as well as to ... -
Stochastic geometry analysis of reference signal spoofing attack in wireless networks
(IEEE, 2016)Cell association is a critical aspect of cellular network operation wherein mobile terminals (MTs) connect to optimal base stations before commencing data transmission and reception. This paper investigates a novel physical ... -
