  Vehicular Ad hoc networks are a subset of mobile Ad hoc networks in which vehicles are considered as network nodes. Their major difference is rapid mobility of nodes which causes the quick change of topology in this network. Quick changes in the topology of the network are considered as a big challenge For routing in these networks, routing protocols must be robust and reliable. AODV Routing protocol is one of the known routing protocols in vehicular ad hoc networks. There are also some problems in applying this routing protocol on the vehicular ad hoc networks. The number of control massages increases with increasing the scale of the network and the number of nodes . One way to reduce the overhead in AODV routing protocol is clustering the nodes of the network. In this paper , the modified K-means algorithm has been used for clustering the nodes and particle swarm optimization has been used for selecting cluster head. The results of the proposed method improved normalized routing load and the increase of the packet delivery rate compared to AODV routing protocol. Manuscript profile

  One of the key issues in e-learning is to identify needs, educational behavior and learning speed of the learners and design a suitable curriculum commensurate to their abilities. This goal is achieved by identifying the learners’ different dimension of personality and ability and assigning suitable learning material to them according these features. In this paper, an intelligent tutoring system is proposed which optimizes the LO selection in e-learning environment. In order to evaluate the proposed method, the designed system has been used in a web-based instruction system in different conditions and the results of the "Academically success", "Satisfactory learning achievement" and "Time of the learners’ attendance" have been analyzed. The obtained results show a significant efficiency compared to other applied methods. Manuscript profile

  In this paper, we have proposed a new algorithm which combines PSO and GA in such a way that the new algorithm is more effective and efficient.The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has shown rapid convergence during the initial stages of a global search but around global optimum, the search process will become very slow. On the other hand, genetic algorithm is very sensitive to the initial population. In fact, the random nature of the GA operators makes the algorithm sensitive to the initial population. This dependence to the initial population is in such a manner that the algorithm may not converge if the initial population is not well selected. This new algorithm can perform faster and does not depend on initial population and can find optimal solutions with acceptable accuracy. Optimal capacitor placement and sizing have been found using this hybrid PSO-GA algorithm. We have also found the optimal place and size of capacitors using GA and PSO separately and compared the results. Manuscript profile

  Nowadays, new technologies have increased the demand for business in the web environment.Increasing demand will increase the variety and number of services. As a result, the creation of large-scale computing data centers has high operating costs and consumes huge amounts of electrical power. On the other hand, inadequate and inadequate cooling systems not only cause excessive heating of resources and shorten the life of the machines. It also produces carbon that plays an important role in the weather. Therefore, they should reduce the total energy consumption of these systems with proper methods. In this research, an efficient energy management approach is provided in virtual cloud data centers, which reduces energy consumption and operational costs, and brings about an increase in the quality of services. It aims to provide a resource allocation strategy for cloud systems with the goal of reducing energy, cost of implementation and examining its use in cloud computing. The results of the simulation show that the proposed method in comaprision to NPA, DVFS, ST and MM methods can reduce the average energy consumption up to 0.626 kWh, also the need to immigration and SLA violation declined up to 186 and 30.91% respectively.

  In this paper, a downlink network with two users as transmitter and relay, respectively, and a central station as a receiver is considered. The aim is to determine the optimal coefficient of non-orthogonal signal symbols and the optimal power allocation in the source-relay in order to maximize the average total rate in a cooperative communication system using the non-orthogonal multiple access technique. To achieve these goals, the average total rate of the cooperative communication system with non-orthogonal multiple access with decode and forward relay in the independent Rayleigh channel was calculated. Then, in the first step, the optimization problem of the non-orthogonal symbols coefficient is mathematically expressed for each power allocation and a closed form solution is proposed. In the second step, the power allocation optimization for the source-relay was introduced and solved. Finally, the joint optimization problem of the non-orthogonal symbols coefficient and power allocation is investigated and an algorithm proposed for the joint optimization problem. The proposed algorithm shows that the joint optimization of the non-orthogonal symbols coefficient and power allocation achieve a higher average rate than the separate optimization of each of these parameters. Also, simulations and numerical results are presented to confirm the theoretical equation, where the simulations show the 3 dB gain for the optimized system using the proposed algorithm compared to the non-optimized system.

  Embedded system designers face numerous design requirements and objectives (such as runtime, power consumption and reliability). Since meeting one of these requirements mostly contradicts other design requirements, it seem to be inevitable to apply multi-objective approaches in various stages of designing embedded systems, including task scheduling step. In this paper, a multi-objective task mapping and scheduling in the design stage of the embedded system is presented. In this method, tasks are represented by task graphs assuming that the hardware architecture platform is given and determined. In order to manage the dependencies between tasks in the task graph, a segmentation method is used, in which the tasks that can be executed simultaneously are specified in a segment and is considered in the scheduling process. In the proposed method, the task mapping and scheduling problem is modeled as a genetic algorithm-based multi-objective optimization problem considering execution time, energy consumption, and reliability. In comparison to similar previous works, the proposed scheduling method respectively provides 21.4%, 19.2%, and 20% improvement in execution time, energy consumption, and reliability. Applying a multi-objective helps the designer to pick out the best outcome according to different considerations. Manuscript profile

  Mobile edge computing improves the experience of end users to achieve appropriate services and service quality. In this paper, the problem of improving resource allocation when offloading tasks based on mobile devices to edge servers in computing systems was investigated. Some tasks are processed locally and some are offloaded to edge servers. The main issue is that the offloaded tasks for virtual machines in computing networks are properly scheduled to minimize computing time, service cost, computing network waste, and the maximum connection of a task with the network. In this paper, it was introduced using the hybrid algorithm of particle swarm and gray wolf to manage resource allocation and task scheduling to achieve an optimal result in edge computing networks. The comparison results show the improvement of waiting time and cost in the proposed approach. The results show that, on average, the proposed model has performed better by reducing the work time by 10% and increasing the use of resources by 16%. Manuscript profile

  Stock market prediction serves as an attractive and challenging field for researchers in financial markets. Many of the models used in stock market prediction are not able to predict accurately or these models require a large amount of input data, which increases the volume of networks and learning complexity, all of which ultimately reduce the accuracy of forecasting. This article proposes a method for forecasting the stock market that can effectively predict the stock market. In this paper, the past market price is used to reduce the volume of input data and this data is placed in a regressor model. Manuscript profile

  In light of the No Free Lunch (NFL) theorem, which establishes the inherent limitations of meta-heuristic algorithms in universally efficient problem solving, the ongoing quest for enhanced diversity and efficiency prompts the introduction of novel algorithms each year. This research presents the IWOGSA meta-heuristic algorithm, a pioneering solution tailored for addressing continuous optimization challenges. IWOGSA ingeniously amalgamates principles from both the invasive weed optimization algorithm and the gravitational search algorithm, capitalizing on their synergies. The algorithm's key innovation lies in its dual-pronged sample generation strategy: a subset of samples follows a normal distribution, while others emulate the planetary motion-inspired velocities and accelerations from the gravitational search algorithm. Furthermore, a selective transfer of certain samples from distinct classes contributes to the evolution of succeeding generations. Expanding upon this foundation, a discrete variant of IWOGSA, termed DIWOGSA, emerges to tackle discrete optimization problems. The efficacy of DIWOGSA is demonstrated through its application to the intricate influence maximization problem. DIWOGSA distinguishes itself with an astute population initialization strategy and the integration of a local search operator to expedite convergence. Empirical validation encompasses a rigorous assessment of IWOGSA against established benchmark functions, composite functions, and real-world engineering structural design problems. Remarkably, the IWOGSA algorithm asserts its superiority, eclipsing both contemporary and traditional methods. This ascendancy is statistically affirmed through the utilization of the Friedman test rank, positioning IWOGSA as the premier choice. Also, DIWOGSA algorithm is evaluated by considering different networks for influence maximization problem, and it shows acceptable results in terms of influence and computational time in comparison to conventional algorithms.

  Internet of Things (IoT) technology involves a large number of sensor nodes that generate large amounts of data. Optimal energy consumption of sensor nodes is a major challenge in this type of network. Clustering sensor nodes into separate categories and exchanging information through headers is one way to improve energy consumption. This paper introduces a new clustering-based routing protocol called KHCMSBA. The proposed protocol biologically uses fast and efficient search features inspired by the Krill Herd optimization algorithm based on krill feeding behavior to cluster the sensor nodes. The proposed protocol also uses a mobile well to prevent the hot spot problem. The clustering process at the base station is performed by a centralized control algorithm that is aware of the energy levels and position of the sensor nodes. Unlike protocols in other research, KHCMSBA considers a realistic energy model in the grid that is tested in the Opnet simulator and the results are compared with AFSRP (Artifical Fish Swarm Routing ProtocolThe simulation results show better performance of the proposed method in terms of energy consumption by 12.71%, throughput rate by 14.22%, end-to-end delay by 76.07%, signal-to-noise ratio by 82.82%. 46% compared to the AFSRP protocol Manuscript profile

  In phishing attacks, a fake site is forged from the main site, which looks very similar to the original one. To direct users to these sites, Phishers or online thieves usually put fake links in emails and send them to their victims, and try to deceive users with social engineering methods and persuade them to click on fake links. Phishing attacks have significant financial losses, and most attacks focus on banks and financial gateways. Machine learning methods are an effective way to detect phishing attacks, but this is subject to selecting the optimal feature. Feature selection allows only important features to be considered as learning input and reduces the detection error of phishing attacks. In the proposed method, a multilayer artificial neural network classifier is used to reduce the detection error of phishing attacks, the feature selection phase is performed by the ant lion optimization (ALO) algorithm. Evaluations and experiments on the Rami dataset, which is related to phishing, show that the proposed method has an accuracy of about 98.53% and has less error than the multilayer artificial neural network. The proposed method is more accurate in detecting phishing attacks than BPNN, SVM, NB, C4.5, RF, and kNN learning methods with feature selection mechanism by PSO algorithm. Manuscript profile

  In this paper, a model based on meta-heuristic algorithms for optimal allocation of IoT resources based on fog calculations is proposed. In the proposed model, the user request is first given to the system as a workflow; For each request, the resource requirements (processing power, storage memory, and bandwidth) are first extracted. This component determines the requested traffic status of the application in terms of real-time. If the application is not real-time and is somewhat resistant to latency, the request will be referred to the cloud environment, but if the application needs to respond promptly and is sensitive to latency, it will be dealt with as a fog calculation. It will be written to one of the Cloudletes. In this step, in order to select the best solution in allocating resources to serve the users of the IoT environment, the ant milk optimization algorithm was used. The proposed method is simulated in MATLAB software environment and to evaluate its performance, five indicators of fog cells energy consumption, response time, fog cell imbalance, latency and bandwidth have been used. The results show that the proposed method reduces the energy consumption, latency rate in fog cells, bandwidth consumption rate, load balance rate and response time compared to the base design (ROUTER) 22, 18, 12, 22 and 47, respectively. Percentage has improved. Manuscript profile

  Mobile edge computing improves the experience of end users to achieve appropriate services and service quality. In this paper, the problem of improving resource allocation, when offloading tasks, based on mobile devices to edge servers in computing systems is investigated. Some tasks are uploaded and processed locally and some to edge servers. The main issue is that the offloaded tasks for virtual machines in computing networks are properly scheduled to minimize computing time, service cost, computing network waste, and the maximum connection of a task with the network. In this paper, a multi-objective hybrid algorithm of particle swarm and gray wolf was introduced to manage resource allocation and task scheduling to achieve an optimal result in edge computing networks. Local search in the particle swarm algorithm has good results in the problem, but it will cause the loss of global optima, so in this problem, in order to improve the model, the gray wolf algorithm was used as the main basis of the proposed algorithm, in the wolf algorithm Gray, due to the graphical approach to the problem, the set of global searches will reach the optimal solution, so by combining these functions, we tried to improve the operational conditions of the two algorithms for the desired goals of the problem. In order to create a network in this research, the network creation parameters in the basic article were used and the LCG data set was used in the simulation. The simulation environment in this research is the sim cloud environment. The comparison results show the improvement of waiting time and cost in the proposed approach. The results show that, on average, the proposed model has performed better by reducing the work time by 10% and increasing the use of resources by 16%. Manuscript profile
