A gesture-based interaction system for smart homes is a part of a complex cyber-physical environment, for which researchers and developers need to address major challenges in providing personalized gesture interactions. However, current research efforts have not tackled the problem of personalized gesture recognition that often involves user identification. To address this problem, we propose in this work a new event-driven service-oriented framework called gesture services for cyber-physical environments(GS-CPE) that extends the architecture of our previous work gesture profile for web services(GPWS). To provide user identification functionality, GS-CPE introduces a two-phase cascading gesture password recognition algorithm for gesture-based user identification using a two-phase cascading classifier with the hidden Markov model and the Golden Section Search, which achieves an accuracy rate of 96.2% with a small training dataset. To support personalized gesture interaction, an enhanced version of the Dynamic Time Warping algorithm with multiple gestural input sources and dynamic template adaptation support is implemented. Our experimental results demonstrate the performance of the algorithm can achieve an average accuracy rate of 98.5% in practical scenarios. Comparison results reveal that GS-CPE has faster response time and higher accuracy rate than other gesture interaction systems designed for smart-home environments.

Vehicles are the target of a rising number of hacking attacks. The integration of in-vehicle intrusion detection systems is a common approach to increase the overall system security. However' testing and evaluating these systems is difficult due to the lack of tools to generate realistic benign and malicious workloads as well as sharing these workloads with other researchers. Currently' testing tools are predominantly intended for Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) in company or industrial networks where their usefulness became apparent. Yet' in the automotive domain' development of testing tools is still in the early stages. Existing non-commercial automotive tools only focuson one specific bus technology each. However' in-vehicle communication exceeds bus technologyboundaries and a testing tool must cover multiple technologies. We propose a framework architecture concept for in-vehicle NIDS testing and evaluation to enable the creation of realistic network traffic and attacks in consideration of automotive specific challenges. Our concept provides the opportunity to share data without additional anonymization effort therefore improving cooperation and reproducibility of testing results.

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a type of wireless network consisting of a set of self-configured mobile hosts that can communicate with each other using wireless links without the assistance of any fixed infrastructure. This has made it possible for us to create distributed mobile computing applications and has also brought several new challenges in the field of distributed algorithm design. Checkpointing is a well explored fault tolerance technique for the wired and cellular mobile networks. However, it is not directly applicable to MANET owing to its dynamic topology, limited availability of stable storage, partitioning and the absence of fixed infrastructure. In this paper, we propose an adaptive, coordinated and non-blocking checkpointing algorithm to provide fault tolerance in cluster-based MANET, where only a minimum number of mobile hosts in the cluster should take checkpoints. The performance analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme requires less coordinating-message cost and performs well compared to the related previous works.

This paper tackles the problem of integrating house-hold energy prosumers in Smart Energy Grids by analyzing a set of state-of-the-art energy forecasting techniques that allow individual or aggregated prosumers to evaluate their future energy demand and inform the distributed System Operator (DSO) about potential grid imbalances. Thus, the DSO can perform a proactive strategy to manage the grid and avoid problems before they appear. The key element of this approach is the prediction technique, that must be accurate enough such that the resulting grid imbalances can be compensated in real-time. The paper evaluates a set of state-of-the-art statistical and Machine Learning (ML) prediction techniques, such as SARIMA, feed-forward and recurrent neural networks, support vector regression or ensemble prediction models, on real household historical energy demand logs by performing a feature selection process for each ML algorithm as to identify the best elements that influence the energy demand of a house. A set of experiments are performed on the REFIT Electrical Load Measurements data set evaluating each model's performance with respect to the selected features. Among the evaluated algorithms, the Ensemble Prediction Model gives best prediction accuracy, showing a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 14.4% followed by the SVM model with a MAPE of 15.4%.
