The motivations behind 5G networks include seamless handovers, higher data rates, lower latencies of about one millisecond, and enhanced coverage compared to 4G networks. To achieve these goals, network densification has been implemented to cope with increasing capacity demands. Networks with ultra-densification have large numbers of heterogeneous small cell deployments such as femto-cells, relays and microcells which complicate mobility management, resulting in unnecessary, frequent, and ping-pong handovers as UEs move within the network. To address these challenges, state of the art approaches using fuzzy logic, adaptive neuro-networks or their combination have been proposed. However, these approaches majorly address the QoS issues, ignoring the security aspect of handovers. In this paper, a handover protocol that incorporates both security and QoS in the handover process is proposed. The simulation results showed that this protocol reduced handover latency, packet losses, number of executed handovers and ping pong rate by 56.1%, 38.8 %, 74.6% and 24.1% respectively. In addition, the developed protocol yielded a 27.1% increase in the handover success rate, and a 27.3% reduction in handover failure rate. This protocol was also shown to be robust against de-synchronization and session hijacking attacks.

Solving an optimization task in any domain is a very challenging problem, especially when dealing with nonlinear problems and non-convex functions. Many meta-heuristic algorithms are very efficient when solving nonlinear functions. A meta-heuristic algorithm is a problem-independent technique that can be applied to a broad range of problems. In this experiment, some of the evolutionary algorithms will be tested, evaluated, and compared with each other. We will go through the Genetic Algorithm, Differential Evolution, Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm, Grey Wolf Optimizer, and Simulated Annealing. They will be evaluated against the performance from many points of view like how the algorithm performs throughout generations and how the algorithm’s result is close to the optimal result. Other points of evaluation are discussed in depth in later sections.

Computer and Internet-Based Communication Technologies aka Cybernetic Communication play important role in communication over a distance. This work gauged uses of cybernetic communication as major means of communication during COVID-19 outbreak based on measured (Social Distance, Self-Quarantine, Isolation, Lockdown) put in place by the government to curtail spreading of the disease in Nigeria. Data were randomly collected through online publication, newsprints, and telephone calls from 290 sampled population. Data Collected were discussed and analyses using Pie chart, Percentile, and Histogram as statistical tools. Findings shows that Cybernetic communication play major role to bridge the communication gaps between the Nigerian people during the outbreak of the Covid-19 outbreak as majority of Nigerians spent more hours using cybernetic tools to communicate and more money was spent on airtime and data to keep their mobile phone running during the trying period of COVID-19 rash. Majority of the sampled population spent their useful time on social medial as in Facebook, whattsapp, Instagram, YouTube and for social interactions and meetings. The implications of our findings are: majority of Nigeria may have computer linked diseases or syndrome such Sleeping Problems and others due to prolong uses of computers; the cybernetic tools (mobile phones, computer, laptop etc.) used by the infected people may be a carrier of the symptoms in the nearest future; Nigerians spent more on data and airtime credit in this trying period and it may affect their financial economy later. This work ends with proposal for roles to be played by Nigeria government and other stakeholders in cybernetic sustained communication processes for pandemic response and to prevent future outbreak of covid-19 after overcoming recent happenings, and also recommended organization strategy for workforce continuity and recovery.

Cloud computing is actually a developing ideal to provide on-demand IT services to end-users. The get accesses to command to information situated in the cloud is just one of the essential parts to enable service to change right into the cloud. Some latest works offer access management models ideal for the cloud; nonetheless, there are essential shortages that need to be resolved in this field. This work offers a progression in the state-of the-craft to get access to management for cloud processing. We illustrate a higher meaningful consent version that permits the management of state-of-the-art attributes such as role-based to get access to management (RBAC), hierarchical RBAC (hRBAC), relative RBAC (cRBAC) and also ordered objects (HO). The get access to management design takes benefit of the logic formalism delivered due to the Semantic Internet technologies to designate both the rooting framework and also the certification style, as well as the rules worked with to guard the get access to sources in the cloud. The access control style has actually been specially established taking into consideration the multi-tenancy model of this type of environment. Moreover, this rely on a style that allows a powdery meaning of what information is on call for every specific tenant has been actually illustrated. This multi-tenant endorsement model permits a fine-grained definition of information sets is being available for the individual tenants. Certainly this assures formation of business associations among cloud tenants resulting in confederation and association agreements. The suggested model has actually been confirmed via verification of concept implementation of the gain access to management device for OpenStack along with promising efficiency end results.

This paper explains how to detect the 2D pose of multiple people in an image. We use in this paper Part Affinity Fields for Part Association (It is non-parametric representation), Confidence Maps for Part Detection, Multi-Person Parsing using PAFs, Simultaneous Detection and Association, this method achieve high accuracy and performance regardless the number of people in the image. This architecture placed first within the inaugural COCO 2016 key points challenge. Also, this architecture exceeds the previous state-of-the-art result on the MPII Multi-Person benchmark, both in performance and efficiency.
