    Traffic Aware Cyclic Sleep-Based Power Consumption Model for a Passive Optical Network
    (Wiley, 2022-02-28) Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Faheem, Muhammad; Anwar, Muhammad; Mohammadani, Khalid H.; Idrus, Sevia M.
    For a network, a power consumption model is an important tool to test the performance of a network process for different traffic loads. In a Passive optical network (PON), the optical network unit (ONU) is responsible for the major power consumption of PON. Both IEEE and ITU have standardized a cyclic sleep process (CSP) for ONU energy conservation. In next-generation PON; TWDM and XGS PON, the ONU power contribution has increased further due to higher number of ONUs and ONU being tunable. Therefore, an accurate power consumption model of the CSP process for energy efficiency studies under different traffic conditions is of prime importance. The existing CSP power consumption models do not depict the CSP process accurately especially the inactivity of the ONU in the asleep and sleep aware states are not taken into account which reduce the accuracy of the model. The proposed inactivity aware model (IAM) overcomes these gaps and very accurately models the CSP process, as evident from the results, which are better than earlier model results and quite close to earlier published simulation results. The model is also validated through a simulation-based study and the simulation results are observed to be very close to the model results with only a 5% deviation.

    QoSRP: A Cross-Layer QoS Channel-Aware Routing Protocol for the Internet of Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
    (MDPI, 2019-11-02) Faheem, Muhammad; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Alquhayz, Hani; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Shah, Syed Bilal; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    Quality of service (QoS)-aware data gathering in static-channel based underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) is severely limited due to location and time-dependent acoustic channel communication characteristics. This paper proposes a novel cross-layer QoS-aware multichannel routing protocol called QoSRP for the internet of UWSNs-based time-critical marine monitoring applications. The proposed QoSRP scheme considers the unique characteristics of the acoustic communication in highly dynamic network topology during gathering and relaying events data towards the sink. The proposed QoSRP scheme during the time-critical events data-gathering process employs three basic mechanisms, namely underwater channel detection (UWCD), underwater channel assignment (UWCA) and underwater packets forwarding (UWPF). The UWCD mechanism finds the vacant channels with a high probability of detection and low probability of missed detection and false alarms. The UWCA scheme assigns high data rates channels to acoustic sensor nodes (ASNs) with longer idle probability in a robust manner. Lastly, the UWPF mechanism during conveying information avoids congestion, data path loops and balances the data traffic load in UWSNs. The QoSRP scheme is validated through extensive simulations conducted by NS2 and AquaSim 2.0 in underwater environments (UWEs). The simulation results reveal that the QoSRP protocol performs better compared to existing routing schemes in UWSNs.

    Performance Prediction and Adaptation for Database Management System Workload Using Case-Based Reasoning Approach
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-07) Raza, Basit; Kumar, Yogan Jaya; Malik, Ahmad Kamran; Anjum, Adeel; Faheem, Muhammad
    Workload management in a Database Management System (DBMS) has become difficult and challenging because of workload complexity and heterogeneity. During and after execution of the workload, it is hard to control and handle the workload. Before executing the workload, predicting its performance can help us in workload management. By knowing the type of workload in advance, we can predict its performance in an adaptive way that will enable us to monitor and control the workload, which ultimately leads to performance tuning of the DBMS. This study proposes a predictive and adaptive framework named as the Autonomic Workload Performance Prediction (AWPP) framework. The proposed AWPP framework predicts and adapts the DBMS workload performance on the basis of information available in advance before executing the workload. The Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) approach is used to solve the workload management problem. The proposed CBR approach is compared with other machine learning techniques. To validate the AWPP framework, a number of benchmark workloads of the Decision Support System (DSS) and the Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) are executed on the MySQL DBMS. For preparation of training and testing data, we executed more than 1000 TPC-H and TPC-C like workloads on a standard data set. The results show that our proposed AWPP framework through CBR modeling performs better in predicting and adapting the DBMS workload. DBMSs algorithms can be optimized for this prediction and workload can be controlled and managed in a better way. In the end, the results are validated by performing post-hoc tests.

    FFRP: Dynamic Firefly Mating Optimization Inspired Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Internet of Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2020) Faheem, Muhammad; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Alquhayz, Hani; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Raza, Saleem; Bin Ngadi, Md Asri; Ngadi, Md. Asri Bin
    Energy-efficient and reliable data gathering using highly stable links in underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) is challenging because of time and location-dependent communication characteristics of the acoustic channel. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic firefly mating optimization inspired routing scheme called FFRP for the internet of UWSNs-based events monitoring applications. The proposed FFRP scheme during the events data gathering employs a self-learning based dynamic firefly mating optimization intelligence to find the highly stable and reliable routing paths to route packets around connectivity voids and shadow zones in UWSNs. The proposed scheme during conveying information minimizes the high energy consumption and latency issues by balancing the data traffic load evenly in a large-scale network. In additions, the data transmission over highly stable links between acoustic nodes increases the overall packets delivery ratio and network throughput in UWSNs. Several simulation experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme against the existing schemes through NS2 and AquaSim 2.0 in UWSNs. The experimental outcomes show the better performance of the developed protocol in terms of high packets delivery ratio (PDR) and network throughput (NT) with low latency and energy consumption (EC) compared to existing routing protocols in UWSNs.

    Capacity and Spectrum-Aware Communication Framework for Wireless Sensor Network-Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017-08) Faheem, Muhammad; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri; Cagri Gungor, Vehbi
    Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been widely recognized as a promising technology for enhancing various aspects of smart grid and realizing the vision of next-generation electric power system in a cost-effective and efficient manner. However, recent field tests show that wireless links in smart grid environments have higher packet error rates and variable link capacity because of dynamic topology changes, obstructions, electromagnetic interference, equipment noise, multipath effects, and fading. To overcome these communication challenges, in this paper, we propose a data capacity-aware channel assignment (DCA) and fish bone routing (FBR) algorithm for WSN-based smart grid applications. The proposed DCA framework deals with the channel scarcities by dynamically switching between different spectrum bands and employs a network for organizing WSN into a highly stable connected hierarchy. In addition, the proposed FBR mechanism provides robust loop free data paths and avoids high transmission cost, excessive end-to-end delay and restricts unnecessary multi-hop data transmission from the source to destination in the network. Thus, it significantly reduces the probability of data packet loss and preserves stable link qualities among sensor nodes for load balancing and prolonging the lifetime of wireless sensor networks in harsh smart grid environments. Comparative performance evaluations show that our proposed schemes outperform the existing communication architectures in terms of data packet delivery, communication delay and energy consumption.

    Autonomic Workload Performance Tuning in Large-Scale Data Repositories
    (Springer London Ltd, 2018-09-04) Raza, Basit; Sher, Asma; Afzal, Sana; Malik, Ahmad Kamran; Anjum, Adeel; Kumar, Yogan Jaya; Faheem, Muhammad
    The workload in large-scale data repositories involves concurrent users and contains homogenous and heterogeneous data. The large volume of data, dynamic behavior and versatility of large-scale data repositories is not easy to be managed by humans. This requires computational power for managing the load of current servers. Autonomic technology can support predicting the workload type; decision support system or online transaction processing can help servers to autonomously adapt to the workloads. The intelligent system could be designed by knowing the type of workload in advance and predict the performance of workload that could autonomically adapt the changing behavior of workload. Workload management involves effectively monitoring and controlling the workflow of queries in large-scale data repositories. This work presents a taxonomy through systematic analysis of workload management in large-scale data repositories with respect to autonomic computing (AC) including database management systems and data warehouses. The state-of-the-art practices in large-scale data repositories are reviewed with respect to AC for characterization, performance prediction and adaptation of workload. Current issues are highlighted at the end with future directions.

    A Multiobjective, Lion Mating Optimization Inspired Routing Protocol for Wireless Body Area Sensor Network Based Healthcare Applications
    (MDPI, 2019-11-20) Faheem, Muhammad; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Alquhayz, Hani; Abbas, Muhammad Zahid; Ngadi, Md Asri; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri
    The importance of body area sensor networks (BASNs) is increasing day by day because of their increasing use in Internet of things (IoT)-enabled healthcare application services. They help humans in improving their quality of life by continuously monitoring various vital signs through biosensors strategically placed on the human body. However, BASNs face serious challenges, in terms of the short life span of their batteries and unreliable data transmission, because of the highly unstable and unpredictable channel conditions of tiny biosensors located on the human body. These factors may result in poor data gathering quality in BASNs. Therefore, a more reliable data transmission mechanism is greatly needed in order to gather quality data in BASN-based healthcare applications. Therefore, this study proposes a novel, multiobjective, lion mating optimization inspired routing protocol, called self-organizing multiobjective routing protocol (SARP), for BASN-based IoT healthcare applications. The proposed routing scheme significantly reduces local search problems and finds the best dynamic cluster-based routing solutions between the source and destination in BASNs. Thus, it significantly improves the overall packet delivery rate, residual energy, and throughput with reduced latency and packet error rates in BASNs. Extensive simulation results validate the performance of our proposed SARP scheme against the existing routing protocols in terms of the packet delivery ratio, latency, packet error rate, throughput, and energy efficiency for BASN-based health monitoring applications.
