Authors: ARSHAD AHMAD KHAN MOHAMMAD , MOHAMMED ABDUL RAZZAK

Abstract: The design goal of effective routing protocol is challenging task in MANET due to its dynamic challenging characteristics. To design an effective routing protocol which provide correct path between source nodes to destination node is not enough but to improve the quality of service, like bandwidth guarantee battery life and delay. In this paper we are going to improve QoS parameters with the use of cross layer approach. With the use of cross layer we are going to utilize the energy related information from physical and MAC layer of the data link layer which is the responsible of computing the power. And also we are calculating the bandwidth .Both of these parameters is used to detect the stable path from source to destination. We are avoiding the node which has less energy and path which has low bandwidth so as to improve the QoS parameters like network performance, stable route and better delivery of data packets.

Authors: SANDEEP SAROWA , SHAILESH TONDWAL

Abstract: Several channel interference cancelation techniques have been proposed in different journals aiming at lowering to asymptotic bit error floors in optical OCDMA systems. These interference cancellation techniques are classified into two groups. One is based on the use of properties of sequence codes and another is based on the use of non linear elements in OCDMA systems. Optical hard-limiter is such a non-linear optical device which is used to reduce the MAI to some extent in OCDMA systems. Purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of channel interference cancellation techniques when used individually or together on Incoherent Optical CDMA systems.

Authors: RAJAT SHEEL JAIN , AMIT GUPTA

Abstract: Requirements are very important features for the designing of any software application. Test suite creation is a big and hectic task for the Software Quality Analyst. We propose to develop a technique for analysis of Covered Requirement and its impact on the designed Test suite. The requirement associated with the test cases accepts specification like execution time, costing for minimization of test suite. The specification analyser compares the information about the techniques like Precision, Efficiency, Inclusiveness and Generality. By reducing the test suite size, we can reduce the execution cost and time, validation and management of the test cases from the suite for future releases of the software and able to maintain the fault detection capability by reusing the refined test cases. The requirement coverage will increase time-effectiveness in sorting the features of the application and reduces the duplicacy. An improved rate of testing activity will provide faster feedback of the

Authors: ANIL SAINI , MANOJ SINGH GAUR , VIJAYALAKSHMI

Abstract: A Web browser is an important component of every computer system as it provides the interface to the Internet world. Browsers facilitate the web users through online services like e-mail, banking and shopping. The new unforeseen functionalities may be added to the web browsers in the form of extensions. The extensions have access to sensitive browser APIs and untrusted web page content, which may result in browser attack like Man-in-the-Browser attack. The major target of this attack is customers of Internet banking. This paper makes two major contributions. First, it presents the threat model for Man-in-the-Browser (MITB) attack. This model identifies various threats and point of attacks used by MITB attack. The major cause of MITB attack is malicious extensions and vulnerabilities found in benign-but-buggy browser extensions. In our study we find that the current browser security model is not secure enough to protect against MITB attack. Second, this paper presents the possible secur

Authors: G.GEETHA , KULJEET KAUR

Abstract: Fingerprint is used as an Identity Authentication Parameter. RNA-FINNT is a Fingerprint Hash Algorithm which is used to extract the hash code value of fingerprint when it is used for identity authentication. This algorithm is already validated on two parameters: reduction in number of angles and removal of dependency on global features. But this paper elucidates the third parameter which is error percentage that how RNA-FINNT has resulted in reduction in error percentage. Detailed analysis of existing algorithms (Grid Hash, Angle Hash and Minimum Distance Hash) is done on the basis of number of minutiae points extracted and on the behalf of which corresponding error percentage is calculated. Proof is generated through mathematical calculation that increase in the number of minutiae points in RNA-FINNT would result in decrease of error percentage. Validation is done that execution of RNA-FINNT results in reduction of error percentage.

Authors: KASHISH ARA SHAKIL , MANSAF ALAM

Abstract: One of the major challenges for the IT companies today is how to manage large growing volumes of data and how to produce a quality driven software product ensuring optimal utilization of resources with minimum cost. The database management system is a software system i.e. a set of programs that provides its users with processes for defining, building, manipulating and sharing databases amongst the users and applications. A cloud data base management system is a database management system for management of cloud data and provides delivery of computing as services rather than as product. In this paper we have proposed an architecture for management of data in cloud termed as “Cloud Database Management System Architecture”. The cloud database management system provides an approach for management of cloud data. The cloud data are spread over the internet and are stored to a remote server managed by a third party. Hence, the cloud data management is a major issue which needs to be catered t

Authors: DHANYA SUNIL , SHIPRA JAIN

Abstract: Identification of solar potential of a region is important so as to reduce the return period of investment and to identify untapped regions like Himalayas, Tibet, Southern Andes etc. which were not considered to be good enough to tap the energy economically. This paper encompasses the use of fuzzy with weighted functions in identifying the same. The proposed method used various environmental constraints like solar irradiance, solar hour, latitude etc. for identifying the potential. For the sake of simplicity we have used only three of the above mentioned parameters but these parameters can be scaled up to any level, as desired by the experts, and also weights assigned to every parameter can be varied as per requirements and application area.

Authors: KALAIMAGAL SIVAMUNI , JAGAN AMGOTH

Abstract: The software industry is a multibillion industry today .All organizations, individuals and businesses use software today for a variety of purposes that range from paying bills online to managing aerospace systems. However, software by itself is prone to errors and bugs leading to disastrous results at times. This has caused many software agencies to look for standardized software engineering processes which result in increased reliability, less debugging and improved quality control. Six Sigma has taken the manufacturing world by storm with its proven results in increasing quality and reducing defects. It is therefore natural that in the past few years, software corporations and firms are now looking to see how Six Sigma methods can be incorporated into the software engineering process. Many companies have tried and successfully implemented Six Sigma methods in the software development , design and testing processes in Software Engineering. However there is still a lot of skepticism wi

Authors: MEENA JHA , LIAM O’BRIEN

Abstract: In this paper we outline our legacy modernization approach that incorporates our reuse process and repository which we have called the Knowledge Base Software Reuse (KBSR) Process and the KBSR Repository. The KBSR Process and Repository aim to give software engineers easy access to reusable software artefacts and reusable components within a defined process which we have incorporated into our modernization process. We outline how software re-engineering of legacy systems is used to populate the repository through the use of architecture reconstruction techniques to identify and categorize legacy components and other artefacts and save the components and associated information in the KBSR Repository to support modernization. The KBSR Repository can contain all categories of reconstructed software artefacts which have the potential to be reusable assets. In the context of modernization software re-engineering through architecture reconstruction has a major role to play in software reuse.

Authors: BASKAR.M , GNANASEKARAN.T , M.RAMAKRISHNAN , S.SARAVANAN

Abstract: Network Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) which are based on sophisticated algorithms rather than current signature-base detections are in demand. Web services have moved to a multi-tiered design wherein the webserver runs the application front-end logic and data are outsourced to a database or file server in order to enable communication and the management of personal information from anywhere. The proposed system is Container based Intrusion Detection System, an IDS system that models the network behavior of user sessions across both the front-end webserver and the back-end database. This system used to detect attacks in multi-tiered web services. Our approach can create normality models of isolated user sessions that include both the web front-end (HTTP) and back-end (File or SQL) network transactions. For websites that do not permit content modification from users, there is a direct causal relationship between the requests received by the front-end webserver and those generated fo

Authors: DINESH SHARMA , NAINA GOEL , PURNIMA K SHARMA , JASLEEN KAUR

Abstract: Face recognition has recently attracted increasing attention and is beginning to be applied in a variety of domains, predominantly for security. In the past few decades’ people used to create some passwords, key words or some other security measures to prevent maltransactions. But now a days with the advanced technology it is better to know the persons physical identity by recognizing some physical features. Because of the problem with traditional password/PIN system, biometric based technologies gained advantage. Face recognition is one of the biometric based technologies which use human faces for authentification. We use wavelet transform for the decomposition of images. Principal Component Analysis is used for the actual recognition. We considered Eigen faces as principal components Face images are projected onto a feature space (“face space”) that best encodes the variation among known face images. This approach transforms face images into a small set of characteristic feature imag

Authors: MOHIT SATI , KINNARI VAISHNAV

Abstract: Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) is a network without any infrastructure and no central authority. Absence of central authority makes MANET more vulnerable to various security attacks. MANET uses one of the address allocation schemes for configuration of new node. Address allocation schemes have several threats e.g. Address space exhaustion attack, IP spoofing, Address conflict threat, Address spoofing threat, etc. This paper suggests a novel approach that uses routing table based solution to detect address space exhaustion attack. Our solution uses three fields of routing table: destination address, hop count, hop limit. An ensuring mechanism is suggested in this paper to ensure detection of address space exhaustion in the network.

Authors: T. P. SHARMA , KULWARDHAN SINGH

Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks are made up of small sensor nodes with sensing capability. These sensor nodes have limited power supply, computational capability and storage. Due to constrained energy source in wireless sensor nodes, the design and implementation of energy efficient protocols is one of the most important challenge in Wireless Sensor Networks. Mobility of sink in wireless sensor networks brings new challenges in the form sink location maintenance, continuous data delivery, avoiding/reducing detour problem but reduces the hotspot problem. In this paper, we propose an Energy-Efficient strategy for Grid-based Data Dissemination supporting Mobile sinks (EEGDD) in wireless sensor networks which is more energy efficient in data dissemination to the mobile sink. This strategy is based upon permanent virtual grid structure and disseminates data from source to sink using optimal path with minimum path delay. This strategy sends query/data announcements across the certain axis only for

Authors: HOSSIEN GHARAEE , SHOKOUFEH SEIFI

Abstract: IDS is a protective system which identifies the occurring violations on the network and its performance is based on different methods. The most common method of IDS performance relies on patter compatibility in which the ordinary behaviors are recognized so that the abnormal behaviors are identified and specific patterns are found for them. In this paper, through a proposed algorithm, we aim at presenting an improved algorithm from combination of two different algorithms of HC and QWM and clustering the data base of attack signature using decision tree for the operations of pattern compatibility in IDS. The benefit of using this method is that compatibility can be managed in such a way that the extra searches are prevented and the best result is obtained during the overlapping of known attacks with main pattern in high speed.

Authors: KAPIL DAVE , NIKITA SAKHARE , PRAGATI PEJLEKAR , VIVEK SAMPAT

Abstract: Various techniques for information hiding in audio files are available and are widely used for secure communication and digital identification. Commonly used methods of steganography add data into a cover file in the form of noise. However, retaining the information hidden in a particular signal after compression or other processing performed on the latter is inevitable. Echo hiding introduces change in the cover audio, rather than adding noise to it, which makes the hidden information immune to any kind of processing performed on the signal. We provide an enhancement to the conventional technique for echo hiding and the method of finding suitable parts in the file fit for hiding data without loss.

Authors: KAPIL KHANDELWAL , DURGA PRASAD SHARMA

Abstract: A single type of knowledge and reasoning method is often not sufficient for a decision support system to address the variety of tasks a user performs. It is often necessary to determine which reasoning method would be the most appropriate for each task, and a combination of different methods has often shown the best results. In this study CBR was mixed with other RBR and MBR approaches to promote synergies and benefits beyond those achievable using CBR or other individual reasoning approaches alone. Each approach has advantages and disadvantages, which are proved to be complementary in a large degree. So, it is well-justified to combine these to produce effective hybrid approaches, surpassing the disadvantages of each component method. In this paper, we briefly outlined popular case-based reasoning combinations. More specifically, we focus on combinations of case-based reasoning with rule based reasoning, and model based reasoning.Further we examined the strengths and weaknesses of var

Authors: FARHEEN , M.A.ANSARI , NEHA KARDAM

Abstract: In a power system the detection of the faults is very important. The faults occurred should be detected and corrected as soon as possible in order to protect further damage to the system. The faults can cause very adverse effects to the system. However the fault detection is not an easy task. In this paper we have considered a sub-station and the detection of the faults within that sub-station is done with the help of Artificial Neural Networks. The purpose of using ANN in this work is very simple, As ANN has various advantages like it can handle huge amount of data without any difficulty and it also takes less execution time. The sub-station considered in this work is the 500kV gas-insulated substation of the Itaipu system. The MATLAB software and the ANN toolbox within it is used here and the network is trained and tested.

In this framework, we use agent technology based on automatic software components for collecting the objective QoE and QoS parameters in real time. For subjective QoE, a user web interface facility is furnished to collect user ratings. EQoM framework monitors, analyzes, generates reports and changes policy without intervention of administrators.

Authors: NARESHKUMAR D. HARALE , B B MESHRAM

Abstract: The primary goal of an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is to identify intruders and differentiate anomalous network activity from normal one. Intrusion detection has become a significant component of network security administration due to the enormous number of attacks persistently threaten our computer networks and systems. Traditional Network IDS are limited and do not provide a comprehensive solution for these serious problems which are causing the many types security breaches and IT service impacts. They search for potential malicious abnormal activities on the network traffics; they sometimes succeed to find true network attacks and anomalies (true positive). However, in many cases, systems fail to detect malicious network behaviors (false negative) or they fire alarms when nothing wrong in the network (false positive). In accumulation, they also require extensive and meticulous manual processing and interference. Hence applying Data Mining (DM) techniques on the network traffic

Authors: RAVI BOLIMERA1 , M. PAUL SANDEEP , T. KRANTHI KUMAR

Abstract: Aim of this paper is to investigate the speech signal enhancement using Normalized Kernel Affine Projection Algorithm (NKAPA). The removal of background noise is very important in many applications like speech recognition, telephone conversations, hearing aids, forensic, etc. Kernel adaptive filters shown good performance for removal of noise. If the evaluation of background noise is more slowly than the speech, i.e., noise signal is more stationary than the speech, we can easily estimate the noise during the pauses in speech. Otherwise it is more difficult to estimate the noise which results in degradation of speech. In order to improve the quality and intelligibility of speech, unlike time and frequency domains, we can process the signal in new domain like Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS) for high dimensional to yield more powerful nonlinear extensions. For experiments, we have used the database of noisy speech corpus (NOIZEUS). From the results, we observed the removal noise

40. A LARGE-SCALE ZERO-DAY WORM SIMULATOR FOR CYBER-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS

Authors: JODIE WETHERALL , LUC TIDY , STEVE WOODHEAD

Abstract: The cost of a single zero-day network worm outbreak has been estimated at US$2.6 billion. Additionally zero-day worm outbreaks have been observed to spread at a significant pace across the global Internet, with an observed infection proportion of more than 90 percent of vulnerable hosts within 10 minutes. The threat posed by such fast-spreading malware is therefore significant, particularly given the fact that network operator / administrator intervention is not likely to take effect within the typical epidemiological timescale of such infections. An accepted tool that is used in researching the threat presented by zero-day worms is the use of simulation systems. However when considering zero-day worm outbreaks on the Internet there are persistent issues of scale and fidelity. The Internet Worm Simulator (IWS) reported in this paper is designed to address these issues by presenting a novel simulation method that, on a single workstation, can simulate an entire IPv4 address space on a n

Authors: FARHEEN , M.A.ANSARI

Abstract: In this paper, we present a novel design for software-based fully automated control station in the integrated substations environment. The idea is, to enable all the substations to communicate with control station as well as with other substations through computer network. The communication is based on client-server architecture. Control station is behaving as the server and substations are behaving as the clients. The scenarios we are taking into the consideration include automatic load balancing and automatic fault tolerance. This model for integrated substations drastically reduces the time latency if compared with traditional model. It reduces the time as well as human intervention in the critical tasks such as responding on some fault, load balancing actions, etc. The proposed model is fast, scalable, flawless, robust and transparent as it is using the capabilities of computers and networking in between them.
