Online communications generate a consistent amount of data flowing between users, services and applications. This information results from the interactions among different parties, and once collected, it is used for a ...
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are emerging as an functional technology for providing a wide range of applications to vehicles and passengers. Ensuring secure functioning is one of the prerequisites for deploying ...
Las nuevas tendencias globalizadoras de la economia y la apertura a nivel internacional de numerosos países en el mundo con la formación de grandes bloques, como por ejemplo, la Unión Europea han propiciado la aparición ...
Este trabajo presenta tanto el estado del arte como el análisis de las principales propuestas de protección de agentes móviles frente a los ataques de la plataforma de ejecución. La comprensión del problema de los hosts ...
The constant mobility of people, the growing need to be always connected, the large number of vehicles that nowadays can be found in the roads and the advances in technology make Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) be a ...
5G/6G services and applications, in the context of the eMBB, mMTC and uRLLC network slicing framework, whose network infrastructure requirements may span beyond the coverage area of a single Infrastructure Provider (InP), ...
For some time now, big data applications have been enabling revolutionary innovation in every aspect of our daily life by taking advantage of lots of data generated from the interactions of users with technology. Supported ...
5G cellular communication, especially with its hugely available bandwidth provided by millimeter-wave, is a promising technology to fulfill the coming high demand for vast data rates. These networks can support new use ...
The understanding of certain data often requires the collection of similar data from different places to be analysed and interpreted. Multi-agent systems (MAS), interoperability standards (DICOM, HL7 or EN13606) and ...
Ever-increasing energy consumption, the depletion of non-renewable resources, the climate impact associated with energy generation, and finite energy-production capacity are important concerns worldwide that drive the ...
Recent developments in optical communication systems have increased the performance of optical networks. Low attenuation fiber optics, high spectral purity lasers and optical amplifiers, among others, are systems that have ...
Next-Generation Networks (NGNs) will converge the existing fixed and wireless networks. These networks rely on the IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), introduced by the 3GPP. The presence service came into being in instant ...
Ad hoc networks have attracted much attention from the research community over the last years and important technical advances have risen as a consequence. These networks are foreseen as an important kind of next generation ...
A recommender system is an automatic system that, given a customer model and a set of available documents, is able to select and offer those documents that are more interesting to the customer. From the point of view of ...
The explosive growth in usage of IEEE 802.11 based WLAN networks has resulted in dense deployments in diverse environments and has made the concept of anytime - anywhere data connectivity a realm of commercial reality. The ...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become increasingly important. These networks comprise sensor and actuator nodes that enable intelligent monitoring and control applications in a wide spectrum of environments including ...
The IEEE 802.11 standard was not initially designed to provide multi-hop capabilities. Therefore, providing a proper traffic performance in Multi-Hop IEEE 802.11 Wireless Networks (MIWNs) becomes a significant challenge. ...
The growing demand to improve road safety and optimize road traffic has generated great interest in vehicular ad-hoc network (VANETs). Serious traffic accidents can cause financial losses, physical disability, and even ...
The emergence of mobile and wireless networks made posible the extensión of electronic commerce to a new area of research: mobile commerce called m-commerce, which includes mobile payment), that refers to any e-commerce ...
This thesis focuses on how to optimize the placement of the Edge Computing infrastructure for upcoming 5G networks. To this aim, the core contributions of this research are twofold: 1) a novel heuristic called Hybrid ...
