Since a huge number of heterogeneous resources are brought in- to IoT, one of the main challenges is how to effi- ciently manage the increasing complexity of IoT in a scalable, flexNle, and autonomic way. Further- more, the emerging IoT applications will require collaborations among loosely coupled devices, which may reside in various locations of the Inter- net. In this paper, we propose a new IoT network management architecture based on cognitive net- work management technology and Service-Orien- ted Architecture to provide effective and efficient network management of loT.展开更多

It has two separate skin-color detection steps: the first one is to quickly detect the potential human skin-color regions; and the second one is to use an off-the-shelf face detector to locate a human face and then apply hypothesis testing based on series of assumptions which take into account the face-height ratio, body orientation and modem photograph composition common sense, etc. After that, a template matching method is used to further discriminate normal images or pornographic ones. Experimental results show that the proposed method has high precision and real time speed.展开更多

However, making efficient use of substrate resources requires effective techniques for embedding virtual networks: mapping virtual nodes and virtual edges onto substrate networks. Previous research has presented several heuristic algorithms, which fail to consider that the attributes of the substrate topology and virtual net- works affect the embedding process. In this paper, for the first time, we introduce complex network centrality analysis into the virtual network embedding, and propose virtual network embedding algorithms based on closeness centrality. Due to considering of the attributes of nodes and edges in the topology, our studies are more reasonable than existing work. In addition, with the guidance of topology quantitative evalua- tion, the proposed network embedding approach largely improves the network utilization efficiency and decreases the embedding complexity. We also investigate our algorithms on real network topologies (e.g., AT&T, DFN) and random network topologies. Experimental results demonstrate the usability and capability of the proposed approach.展开更多

However, the interference-limited reality in femtocell networks makes interference and resource management the key to achieving the benefits of femtocell networks. In this paper, the following contributions are made step by step: first, on the basis of the interference temperature model (ITM) in cognitive radio (CR) technique and the network architecture of the third generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution advanced (LTE-A), the problem model of optimizing the capacity of the femtocell-reused subchannel is established under the frequency partitioning strategy, jointly considering the average interference constraint and the instantaneous interference constraint. Second, utilizing the convex theory, optimal power allocation of the femtocell-reused subchannel is derived. Third, under Rayleigh fading channel, closed-form expressions of the subchannel reusable probability and capacity are derived. At last, numerical results are conducted to confirming our analytical results, which could provide theoretical guidance for frequency resource allocation of femtocell network deployments.展开更多
