    Threat Landscape of Edge-AI-Assisted Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAV)
    (Elsevier B.V., 2026) He, Ligang; Maple, Carsten; Atmaca, Ugur Ilker; Kasyap, Harsh; Nezhad, Mahshid Mehr; Atmacaa, Ugur Ilker; Nezhada, Mahshid Mehr; Kasyapa, Harsh
    Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) powered by Edge Artificial Intelligence (Edge-AI) are revolutionising intelligent transportation systems through real-time data processing for obstacle avoidance, adaptive learning of dynamic traffic patterns, and improved decision-making in safety-critical tasks like traffic sign recognition. However, deploying machine learning (ML) models directly at the vehicle level introduces new security vulnerabilities, making CAVs susceptible to adversarial attacks that can compromise system integrity, reliability, and safety. These attacks primarily target onboard ML systems, highlighting the need for a structured threat modelling approach to identify and mitigate risks. This paper investigates the threat landscape of Edge-AI-assisted CAVs, focusing on the CAV layer as a critical attack surface within the hierarchical system architecture. Employing the STRIDE framework, we analyse vulnerabilities across four stages of the ML lifecycle: input data, model training, aggregation and inference. We present adversarial concept drift as a case study of an evolving threat in which malicious actors introduce subtle data manipulations over time to degrade ML model performance while avoiding detection. Through attack tree analysis and experimental evaluation, we show how adversarial concept drift propagates through the system, ultimately affecting its reliability. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to illustrate the impact of gradual adversarial concept drift on robustness. Our results reveal that gradual drifts are harder to detect than sudden ones, even when using Byzantine-robust defenses. These findings underscore the limitations of existing security mechanisms and emphasise the urgent need for adaptive, resilient countermeasures to address the dynamic, evolving threat landscape facing Edge-AI-enabled CAV systems.

    Energy Efficient and Reliable Data Gathering Using Internet of Software-Defined Mobile Sinks for WSNS-Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Elsevier B.V., 2019-10) Faheem, Muhammed Yasir; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Ngadi, M. A.; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı
    The smart grid is an emerging concept that introduces innovative ways to handle the power quality and reliability issues for both service provider and consumers. The key aims of the smart grid (SG) in smart cities (SCs) is to preserve a certain level of residents’ life quality and support the entire spectrum of their economic activities. In this paper, we present a novel Energy Efficient and Reliable Data Gathering Routing Protocol (ODGRP) for wireless sensor networks (WSNs)-based smart grid applications. The developed scheme employs a software-defined centralized controller and multiple mobile sinks for energy efficient and reliable data gathering from WSNs in the SG. The extensive simulation results conducted through the EstiNet 9.0 show that the designed scheme outperforms existing approaches and achieves its defined goals for event-driven applications in the SG. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Amelioration Potential of Synthetic Oxime Chemical Cores Against Multiple Sclerosis and Alzheimer's Diseases: Evaluation in Aspects of in Silico and in Vitro Experiments
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024-12) Yilmaz, Anil; Koca, Murat; Ercan, Selami; Acar, Özden Ozgun; Boǧa, Mehmet; Sen, Alaattin; Kurt, Adnan
    Alzheimer disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis (MS) are inflammatory neurological disorders. The main symptom of AD is dementia, and the main symptoms of MS are vertigo, sexual dysfunction, cognitive problems, and fatigue. Today, millions of people are affected by AD and MS, and the number is growing day by day. However, there are not any accurate remedies for both disorders. For this reason, discovering novel drug molecules against neurological disorders such as AD and MS is essential and precious. Oximes and benzofurans exhibit many pharmacological effects including anti-inflammatory and neurological activities. Thus, several novel compounds bearing oxime and benzofuran chemical cores were designed and synthesized, and their in vitro anticholinesterase activities were investigated in our previous study. A number of the synthesized molecules showed excellent anticholinesterase activity against both AChE and BChE enzymes. The mentioned study constituted a background for this study. In this study, we picked different chemical skeletons among all the synthesized molecules to conduct further in silico and in vitro experiments. In order to support our in vitro anticholinesterase findings, we also examined in silico anti-Alzheimer activity of the selected molecules. In addition, in silico and in vitro activities against MS disease of the synthesized molecules were investigated. Molecule 4 extraordinarily showed outstanding activity against AD disease both in silico and in vitro, as well as in silico activity against MS disease. This feature makes molecule 4 a possible drug lead molecule which is very limited in the market. On the other hand, molecule 1, a less substituted oxime skeleton, demonstrated the strongest in vitro activity against MS disease through in vitro anti-inflammatory effect. As an observation, molecule 4 was determined to be the most promising molecule to focus on in the further steps. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Formation of a Very High-Density Amorphous Phase of Carbon and Its Crystallization into a Simple Cubic Structure at High Pressure
    (Elsevier B.V., 2021) Durandurdu, M.
    We report a direct computational evidence of a two-step transformation sequence for tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) with increasing pressure. First, ta-C gradually transforms into a very high-density amorphous phase (VHDA) phase. Second, the VDHA phase converts into a simple cubic (SC) crystal. The structural defects formed during the high-pressure treatment play important roles for the formation and stabilization of the SC structure, rather than favorable the SC4 crystal. These phase transformations are reversible. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
