Title : Negotiation Based Service Brokering Using Game Theory Authors: Sarbani Roy, Benay Kumar Ray, Sunirmal Khatua Abstract: Enterprise cloud computing has emerged as a promising technology, where on-demand provisioning of services like storage, infrastructure, software and platform are provided. Growing market of cloud computing, resulted in a variety of heterogeneous cloud services. This leads to a difficult problem for Cloud Service Consumer when selecting their best fitting Cloud Service Providers (SP), who can provide best quality resource at negotiated price. Thus we propose a middleware based Cloud Service Broker (SB) architecture for enterprise cloud computing. The objective of SB is to find the most suitable SP for a SC based on negotiation with Service Level Agreement (SLA) parameters like price and quality. Second we propose game theory model for automatic SLA negotiation between SC and SP where CSB provides optimal value of price and quality to both the parties.

Fig. 1. A cloud service broker architecture Some significant remarks:  Heterogeneity in cloud infrastructure due to growing market of cloud computing justify the need for a cloud resource broker. The resource broker assists service consumers to find the appropriate service provider, on proper negotiation on SLA parameters like price and quality.  We propose a middleware based resource brokering architecture for cloud eco-system in order to help service consumer to reduce overhead of selecting right SP for their application. The objective of SB is to find a most suitable SP, who can provide best quality instance at negotiated price to SC. SB may save SC time and extra money and determine task completion time, optimal negotiated price and quality of instance and best SP.  Second we provide suitable model for SLA negotiation based on game theory. In our model SB negotiates SLA on behalf of both SC and SP and provides optimal value for price and quality to both the parties.

5.1.6 Work plan during 2014-17

Issues and Motivation:  Cloud federation has been proposed as a new paradigm that allows providers to avoid the limitation of owning only a restricted amount of resources, which forces them to reject new customers when they have not enough local resources to fulfil their customers’ requirements.  Federation allows a provider to dynamically outsource resources to other providers in response to demand variations. It also allows a provider that has underused resources to rent part of them to other providers. Both things could make the provider to get more profit when used adequately. One of the key motivations for IaaS providers is the possibility of making profit by leveraging their available data center resource to serve potential thousands of users.

Challenges: 1. How to provide incentive for self-interested agents to contribute their resource to a coalition is a highly non-trivial problem. 2. How to decide the amount of resource each agent should contribute to the coalition and how the revenues can be shared in the coalition are both extremely complicated issues. 3. In addition, unknown internal demand of data center has to be considered when offering service to public cloud users and type of service level agreement necessary to form between different cloud service providers.

Objective:  Our main objective is to propose a middleware based Cloud Service Provider Broker (SPB) architecture for enterprise cloud computing. Our SPB may provide solution based on some optimization technique to allow different cloud service providers (SP) to avoid the limitation of owning only a restricted amount of resources and to provide solution for existing challenge in the cooperation cloud computing environment. Our main target is to provide such solution for SP where they can cooperate together accomplishing trust contexts and providing new business opportunities such as cost-effective assets optimization, and on-demand resources provisioning on proper SLA agreement. 5.2 Project Name: Design of a Secure and Trusted Wireless Sensor Network for border and perimeter tracking”

1. Title: “Coordinator Node-based Collection Tree Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks”, Authors: Sayantani Saha, Mousumi Saha, Sarmistha Neogy Name of the Proceedings: in the proceedings of International Conference on Emerging Research in Computing, Information, Communication and Applications, ERCICA 2013, Elsevier Proceedings, India, pp. 163 – 169, ISBN: 9789351071020 Abstract: Routing protocol in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) poses lots of challenges in today’s research world. In most of the applications we need to maintain reliability, efficiency, scalability. In this context we have evaluated the performance of Collection Tree Protocol (CTP) for WSN applications and examined that CTP performs poorly in case of data delivery most of the times due to path inconsistency factors like routing loop generation, dynamic links, etc. Hence the problem of route discovery in CTP leads to retransmission, packet dropping etc. This finally results in poor data delivery rate of that application. Therefore a coordinator based approach along with the basic CTP mechanism is proposed and analyzed here. In mobile scenario the CTP protocol faces challenges in route discovery and maintenance of the route towards the particular sink. Therefore the coordinator based approach allows a node to reliably send data to its particular sink and maintain the route history for the rest of the session Status: Published Most significant conclusion(s): The proposed CN-based CTP approach tries to provide a virtual backbone structure for routing from source to destination. It is however challenging to provide a wireless backbone structure in mobile wireless scenario since any node may move or fail due to power outage. The proposed work provides a backup network support of CTP itself. The proposed algorithm follows the traditional CTP mechanism if the CN-based approach does not work. So data delivery will not be disrupted but carried out, albeit, with some delay2.

2. Title: “Case study on a smart Surveillance system using WSN and IP webcam” Authors: Sayantani Saha, Sarmistha Neogy Abstract: Surveillance is becoming a need in any public or private area to cope up with increasing number of threats starting from burglary, robbery to terrorist activities. The traditional methods for monitoring are commonly confined in the use of CCTV cameras or wireless sensor network (WSN). These two techniques serve the purpose in different ways. CCTV cameras help in visual monitoring of target area whereas WSN helps in acquiring physical information from the environment, like change in thermal, chemical, magnetic conditions. In this paper we incorporate advantages of both technologies to build up a smart surveillance system. We have proposed a centralized computer based application that identifies movement of human beings in target area and keep the visual evidence of the movement with the help of the camera. This is an event based system, thus, substitutes the need for continuous monitoring of the area. A prototype application is deployed in university laboratory room to evaluate some preliminary functionalities of the application. Status: Presented in IEEE International Conference on Applications and Innovations in Mobile Computing (AIMoC 2014) and to be included IEEEXplore digital Library Most significant conclusion(s): Our approach is a real time implementation of various network components. The deployment of the IP web cam along with PIR sensors not only enhances the overall system, it also opens up new dimensions for improving the system. The track record of any movement with the video evidence will obviously help in unauthorised movement in the lab. Even an untimely movement in the lab could be traced. This case study will work as a strong back bone of a secure dependable advance surveillance system. 5.2.6 Work plan during 2014-17

 Developing a routing protocol for the surveillance system for a large monitoring area.  Integrate further security measures with the proposed protocol.  Security measures to include integrity and confidentiality.  Develop technique to inform through SMS / tone / mail in case of breach of security. 5.3 Project Name: Studies on Intrusion Detection in Wireless Network

1. Title: An Efficient Binary Playfair Algorithm using a 4×4 Playfair Key Matrix Authors: Samiran Chattopadhyay, Matangini Chattopadhyay, Saswati Mukherjee Name of the Journal/Conference: Proceedings of 11th Int. Conf. on Information Systems and Industrial Management, 2012 Abstract: Playfair cipher is a digraph cipher which is not preferred now-a-days for two main reasons. Firstly, it can be easily cracked if there is enough text and secondly, frequency analysis of digraph is anyway possible. This paper proposes a new solution, which encrypts / decrypts each byte by applying the Playfair on its nibbles with the help of a reduced 4×4 Key matrix. This byte by byte encryption supports any character (even multilingual character), number (of any base), symbol and any type of media file and thereby ensures flexibility. Randomness of the algorithm is achieved by rotating the key matrix randomly after encryption / decryption of each byte. Several operations are performed to support the mechanism of lightweight cryptography. The proposed method is implemented and compared with other popular ciphers on the basis of certain parameters, like Avalanche Effect, Time Complexity, and Space Requirement. The result obtained demonstrates efficiency of the proposed algorithm. Status: Published Most significant conclusion(s):  The proposed algorithm acts as a stream cipher rather than conventional poly alphabetic block cipher.  The algorithm uses a 4×4 key matrix hence space efficiency is achieved.  The algorithm supports any type of plain text alphabet of any language, symbol, number system, any type of media file or anything else.

2. Title: Detection of Selective Forwarding Attack in Wireless Ad hoc Networks using Binary Search

Authors: Samiran Chattopadhyay, Matangini Chattopadhyay, Saswati Mukherjee

Name of the Journal/Conference: Third International Conference on Emerging Applications of Information Technology, EAIT 2012.

Abstract: Selective forwarding attack is one of the most harmful attacks in wireless networks. This paper proposes an algorithm to defend against selective forwarding attacks based on binary search technique in clustered wireless ad hoc network. In the first phase, the cluster head raises an alarm when number of packets dropped along a path is more than a threshold value. In the second phase, control packets and hello packets are exchanged along a misbehaving routing path between the wireless node and a cluster head to detect compromised node. Experimental results demonstrate that the detection efficiency of the proposed algorithm is more than 90%. The algorithm can detect multiple compromised nodes if they exist. We have also experimented to estimate the threshold value of packet drops and computed the required rate of drops of compromised nodes so that they can be detected. Status: Published Most significant conclusion(s):  Detection efficiency of compromised nodes has increased by increasing the number of cluster heads.  In hierarchical heterogeneous network, selective forwarding attack is detected by employing binary search technique.  Average detection efficiency is almost 100% when number of nodes increases linearly.

Title: A Novel Incentive Based Scheme to Contain Selective Forwarding in Wireless Sensor Network Authors: Samiran Chattopadhyay, Matangini Chattopadhyay, Saswati Mukherjee Name of the Journal/Conference: 12th International Conference on Computer Information Systems and Industrial Management Applications, (CISIM 2013). Abstract- Selective forwarding or dropping of packets is a serious threat to multi hop communication in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). There are various schemes to induce cooperation in a WSN to overcome this problem. In this paper, we have introduced a novel adversary model and have proposed an incentive based scheme to inspire cooperation among nodes in a WSN. The scheme has been formally analyzed. The efficacy of the scheme is also established through various simulation experiments. Status: Published Most significant conclusion(s):  Incentive based mechanism is proposed to induce node to cooperate in packet forwarding in wireless sensor network.  Idea of rational adversary nodes is introduced in addition to trusted and malicious nodes.  Throughput gets increased even though the number of malicious nodes increases.

Ongoing work on Project 1: i. Title: Performance Analysis of Queue Scheduling Schemes and Buffer Size optimization for Heterogeneous Traffic Classes

Authors: Prasun Chowdhury, Iti Saha Misra

Name of the Journal/Conference: Communicated to IEEE Transaction on Vehicular Technology Abstract: As the most important aspect of Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) networks is to provide heterogeneous traffic flows with QoS guarantee, we have surveyed some major existing scheduling algorithms mostly used for WiMAX networks to support differentiated QoS. Then we conduct a comprehensive performance analysis of various Queue Scheduling Schemes (QSS) namely, Priority Queue Scheduling Scheme (PQSS), Hybrid Queue Scheduling Scheme (HQSS) and Weighted Hybrid Queue Scheduling Scheme (WHQSS) which support differential QoS requirements for heterogeneous traffic classes in BWA networks. Performance evaluation is carried out based on analytical results obtained from several evaluation parameters like mean number of packets waiting in the queue, throughput, mean queuing delay, packet loss probability and fairness index. It is clearly shown that WHQSS not only provides tight QoS guarantee but also maintains highest fairness to all traffic classes and performs better in all respect when compared to other QSSs. Furthermore, the Queue Weight Ratio (QWR) of WHQSS is tuned for stringent delay requirement and buffer size is optimized with a proposed algorithm to maximize the throughput of the network under the specified constraint of queuing delay and packet loss rate, thus making the scheme adaptive.

Status: Under Review

Most Significant Conclusion:

 The analysis reveals that WHQSS performs better in all aspects when compared to other QSSs.

 QWR is made adaptive and buffer size is optimized based on some QoS parameters.

 The buffer optimization as well as the adaptive QWR enhance the throughput up to 76% of RT traffic and maintain the guaranteed throughput of NRT traffic under heavy traffic flow. ii. Title: Cross-layer Architecture for Joint Call Admission Control and Routing Protocols for Maximum Resource Utilization in BWA Mesh Networks.

Authors: Arijeet Ghosh, Iti Saha Misra

Name of the Journal/Conference: N/A Abstract: Call admission control (CAC) and routing are the two important mechanisms for QoS provisioning in BWA mesh networks for seamless transmission of heterogeneous handoff calls [1]. That is why, a cross-layer architecture based on MAC layer and Network layer has been developed to analyze the performance of joint CAC and routing protocols. The Non Reservation based prioritized CAC mechanism [2] along with various routing protocols [3] such as Link Quality Source Routing (LQSR), Multi-Radio Routing (MR), and Multipath Routing for load balancing and fault tolerance have been considered for the performance evaluation with the objective to maximize the resource utilization of the mesh network.

Authors: Arijeet Ghosh, Iti Saha Misra

Name of the Journal/Conference: N/A Abstract: Due to long distance cell coverage in BWA networks, it has been seen that the signal strength around the cell edges decreases which leads to low Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) and degraded QoS [1]. Although the placement of few low ranges femto cells or WiFi hotspots in the cell edge can solve the aforementioned problem up to some extent. But the problem related to Vertical Handoff (VHO) with strict QoS guarantee still persists for BWA network [2]. Hence, VHO is a major challenge for such type of system implementation. Due to the absence of VHO framework in Qualnet 6.1, a novel framework is being developed in Qualnet 6.1 to ensure the VHO in hybrid network design. This implementation of VHO in Qualnet 6.1 helps for the further analysis of the various other hybrid networks like 2G, 3G and LTE.

Title: Joint Optimization of Detection Thresholds and Power Allocation in OFDM Based Cognitive Femto cell Networks:

Authors: Tanumay Manna, Iti Saha Misra

Name of the Journal/Conference: IEEE Proc. COMNETSAT-2013, Dec 3-5, 2013, Available in IEEE Xplore Abstract: Spectrum sensing in cognitive femtocells play an important role in detecting spectrum holes and to opportunistically use under-utilized frequency bands without causing harmful interference to macrocell users. In case of mass deployment of femtocells, interference management is essential to maximize the capacity and achievable data rates. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed, based on Lagrangian dual decomposition technique, for jointly optimizing the detection threshold and power allocation to maximize the total aggregated opportunistic throughput per unit bandwidth of a co-channel OFDM based femtocell network, densely deployed over a macrocell architecture, under a constraint of the total interference generated towards macrocell users. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is stable, attains convergence and achieves considerable rate gain.

Findings: The proposed method of joint optimization provides considerable rate gain with respect to per unit band width (114%). Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is stable and thus would be suitable for practical implementation.

Title : Implementation of Relay Based Collaborative Spectrum Sensing Using Coalitional Games In Wireless Cognitive Radio Networks

Authors: Tanumay Manna, Iti Saha Misra

Name of the Journal/Conference: Elsevier Journal, Revised papersubmitted Abstract— In Cognitive Radio Networks, collaborative spectrum sensing is used by the opportunistic Secondary Users (SUs) to improve the spectrum detection performance. The first part of this paper is dealt with the design and implementation of Normal Collaborative Spectrum Sensing (NCSS) based on coalitional games. To study the performance in real wireless cognitive environment NCSS is implemented in Wireless Open- Access Research Platform (WARP). The SUs receiving poor signal from Primary Users (PUs) are called “Weaker SUs”. Weaker SUs collaborating with Cluster Head (CH) gain in terms of improved coalitional detection probability but at the cost of increased false alarm probability. The overall sensing performance is the sum-utility of the system that also has improved performance because of the collaboration. The test-bed implementation of NCSS under WARP shows that under poor reporting channel condition, it loses the advantage of collaboration as sum-utility reduces to very high negative value. To alleviate this problem, the second part of this paper proposes a Relay based Collaborative Spectrum Sensing (RCSS). RCSS also uses the coalitional game to share sensing results between affected SUs and the CH of the coalition unit. RCSS has been tested for all possible collection of coalitions under different reporting channel conditions. Test-bed implementation using WARP reveals that using neighboring SU having low error prone relay path, the sum- utility improves by 20%, as compared to NCSS at the cost of minimal loss in energy efficiency of the SUs. Findings: Practical implementation of collaborating spectrum sensing is successfully completed using WARP v3 board. Both the NCSS and RCSS are implemented and it is observed that for low received SNR conditions there is significant improve in sum-utility of the system using collaborative sensing.

1. Title: Human Identification using Finger Vein Images based on Fuzzy Contrast Enhancement and Non Rigid Registration Techniques

Authors: Mita Nasipuri, Subhadip Basu, Sumana Basu and Anupam Banerjee

Name of the Journal: IEEE Transactions on Image Processing

Abstract: The proposed work aims at developing a unique personal identification system using finger vein biometric. The study is conducted on 3816 low contrast near infrared finger vein images belonging to the SDUMLA-HMT multimodal database. The finger vein images are greatly augmented using a fuzzy contrast enhancement procedure. A robust non-rigid registration procedure using mutual information metric is put in place to arrest the rotational and translational anomalies that might creep in during image acquisition. A simple correlation coefficient based matching score is finally implemented to develop the classifier. The proposed system considers performance of single as well as multi consensus finger settings and performs with an accuracy of over 98% for a majority of such configurations.

Status: Under Preparation

Most significant conclusion(s):

1. The proposed classifier significantly enhances the low contrast finger vein images and extracts substantial and unique information from them.

2. The non-rigid registration procedure based on mutual information successfully deals with the problem of accidental misalignment.

3. The classifier shows finger arrangements with Equal Error Rate as low as 1.89% and average classification accuracy of more than 98% for most consensus configurations.

2. Title: Automatic classification of different species from DNA Fingerprints of the Amorphophallus Genus- A Case Study.

Authors: Mita Nasipuri, Subhadip Basu, Orachorm Mekkerdchoo, Georges Srzednicki, and Anupam Banerjee

Name of the Journal: BMC Bioinformatics

Abstract: The proposed work aims at automatic classification of different species from DNA fingerprints of the Amorphophallus genus. Twelve different data-sets of DNA fingerprints are prepared using twelve different primers and each set consists of forty eight DNA fingerprints of the Amorphophallus genus. With respect to the different data-sets, we construct twelve distinct marker based fuzzy classifiers. Among them, the decisions from the different classifiers are combined with the help of a brainstorming consensus strategy to decide "whether the DNA fingerprint of an unknown species corresponds to a particular species of interest or not". The brainstorming consensus based classifier performs with an overall accuracy of 90%. Status: Under Preparation

Most significant conclusion(s):

1. The algorithm that has been devised provides a novel solution to the problem of species identification solely on the basis of its DNA fingerprint image and can be extended to any Genus.

1. Title: Signature Images matched to index and access a Case Base with DTW comparisons on reduced candidate sets obtained by Hashing and Open Addressing techniques

Authors: Chitrita Chaudhuri, Atal Chaudhuri, Aparajita Khan, Sumangal Mondal

Abstract : Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm lends itself well for aligning two similar but out of phase sequence. Here we have explored methods to extract some Sequence-data from offline signature images and then apply DTW techniques to compare them. The intuitive similarity measurement score determined by DTW from non-linear or elastic alignment of the contour points of two specimen signatures allows us to rank the specimens’ similarity very effectively. We have chosen some other image features which lend themselves well to select a subset of candidate specimens for the final DTW score rank list. This subset selection is essential in order to minimize the cost of the computationally-intensive DTW procedure. The aim has been to perfect a Case Based Reasoner (CBR) used for storing the signatures along with the identity of the signatory as its class value.

Status: Under Preparation 2. Title : Authenticity of signatures for a case base predicted by measuring central tendency of features and dynamic time warping values

Authors: Chitrita Chaudhuri, Atal Chaudhuri, Aparajita Khan

Abstract: This work proposes to authenticate offline signatures using a Case Base Reasoner. Each case of ten genuine signatures per person is first reviewed to identify poor specimens having global feature values deviating from central tendency beyond a threshold. These are marked as candidates for replacement. Next, the good ones are utilized for predicting the authenticity of each test signature. Feature deviations are now further augmented by statistical dispersion of the Dynamic Time Warping distance measured for local maxima and minima in both the upper and lower contours of the signatures while comparing with filtered original cases. Pre-defined authentic bounds help detect forgery. Correctly classified signatures can upgrade the case base by replacing outliers, if any. Although the MLP may seem to be better FRR-wise, the CBR needs no training by forgery models. This quality plus a low FAR value places it philosophically on a firmer footing as a classifier.

Conclusion :

 Overall Accuracy – CBR 83.33% , MLP 74.84%

 False Acceptance Rate - CBR 9.12% , MLP 34.56%

 False Rejection Rate - CBR 32.65% , MLP 17.35%

1. Title: A comparative study of two modified Swarm intelligence techniques used in Very Large Scale Integration Routing

Authors: Abhinandan Khan and Subir Kumar Sarkar.

Journal: Transactions on Evolutionary Computation

Abstract: This paper presents a comparative study of the performances of two different inertial weight update techniques adopted by a modified Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization (DPSO) algorithm for routing optimization in Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI). The routing problem in VLSI systems is essentially a NP-hard problem of finding a Minimal Rectilinear Steiner Tree (MRST) formed by all the terminal nodes in a (VLSI) system. The purpose of the modified DPSO algorithm is to find some Steiner points to minimize the number of redundant parallel interconnecting wires. A modified Prim’s algorithm has been adopted for the purpose of finding the cost of any produced MRST formed in this work. A modification to the traditional PSO has been done by introducing the mutation operation from Genetic Algorithm (GA). Two inertia weight update techniques have been used namely, linearly decreasing inertia weight and self-adaptive inertia weight technique. Three sets of experiments have been performed by applying the algorithm in both its avatars to two randomly generated VLSI systems for each set. A separate experiment has also been done to establish the superiority of the modified DPSO algorithm proposed in this work, compared to the results obtained in a recently published work, in optimizing the interconnect lengths and thereby finding the lowest wire length

Status: Communicated, under review.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 The self-adapting inertia weight technique is superior to the linearly decreasing inertia weight technique in case of the global routing problem dealt herein.

 The mutation operation increases the exploitation of the Particle Swarm Optimization in general and improves the optimization results for both the techniques used in the work.

2. Title: On the Implementation of Robust Copyright Protection Scheme Using Visual Attention Model

Authors: Abhishek Basu and Subir Kumar Sarkar.

Journal: Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective (Taylor and Francis)

Abstract: Perceptual watermarking should always take full advantage of the results from human visual system (HVS) studies. Based upon visual saliency’s modulation effect which incorporates visual attention’s influence on visual sensitivity, this paper proposes an integrated visual saliency modulated HVS model guided least significant bit (LSB) watermarking approach for copyright protection. The proposed algorithm can embed more information into visually non-belligerent areas within the host image, determined by the visual attention model. The region of uninterested (ROU) indicates the most unimportant visible aspects of an image, so distortion within these areas will be less noticeable to any viewer. To resist common signal pro-cessing attacks, for each ROU, an improved quantization method is employed to embed the copyright information. Experimental results demonstrate that the pro-posed method is more robust to various image impairments while minimum effect on the image quality as verified by objective evaluations while compared with the state-of-the- art watermarking schemes. Moreover, we have evaluated the theory of Kurtosis testing to the steganalysis of the host image. Status: Published in Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective (Taylor and Francis), Vol- 22:pp-10–20, 2013.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 An integrated visual saliency modulated HVS model guided least significant bit (LSB) watermarking approach for copyright protection is proposed.

 The proposed algorithm can embed more information into visually non-belligerent areas within the host image, determined by the visual attention model so capacity is higher.

 The proposed method is more robust to various image impairments while minimum effect on the image quality as verified by objective evaluations while compared with the state-of-the-art watermarking schemes.

5. Title: On the implementation of IP Protection using Biometrics based Information Hiding and Firewall

Authors: Abhishek Basu, Kingshuk Nandy, Avishek Banerjee, Supratick Giri, Souvik Sarkar and Subir kumar Sarkar

Journal: Microprocessors and Microsystems, Elsevier.

Abstract: System-on-Chip (SoC) based design style creates a revolution in VLSI industry by means of design efficiency, operating speed and development time. To support this process, reuse and exchange of components are essential in electronic form called Intellectual Property (IP). This however, increases the possibility of encroachment of IP of the design. So copyright protection of IP against piracy is a most important concern for the IP vendors. The existing solutions for IP protection are still not secure enough by means of flexibility, cost etc. In this paper we propose an information hiding based novel solution for IP Protection by embedding a biometric copyright information and firewall inside an IP in the form of a finite state machine (FSM) with unique configuration. The proposed scheme firstly, introduces copyright information obtained from biometric signature as ownership proof. Secondly the firewall interrupts the normal functionality of the IP on end of user time period. The experimental outcomes of Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation illustrate the efficiency of proposed method with low overhead.

Status: Communicated, under review.

Secondly the firewall interrupts the normal functionality of the IP on end of user time period.  The experimental outcomes of Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation illustrate the efficiency of proposed method with low overhead.

6. Title: A Watermarking Scheme Based On Singular Value Decomposition and Particle Swarm Optimization

Authors: Sulagna Laha, Jaideep Chowdhury, Abhinandan Khan and Subir Kumar Sarkar.

Conference: IEEE International Advance Computing Conference, Dr. A.K Garg Institute, Ghaziabad, 22-23 February, 2013.

Abstract: Watermarking techniques use different ways to embed the watermark within the host. They use different strengths (scaling factor) of the watermark when embedding it. In this paper we have optimized the single scale factor of the watermark using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to yield a watermarking scheme with the best possible robustness(highest Normalised Cross-correlation), keeping the scheme as imperceptible as possible.

Status: Published in IEEE Xplore.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 In this work, we have seen that PSNR of a watermarking technique varies i.e. is inversely proportional with the scaling factor of the watermark and the NCC values of a watermarking scheme depend on the scaling factor.

 Thus, for the same watermarking scheme it is possible to find out a scaling factor that results in higher robustness while keeping the scheme to be as imperceptible as possible.

 Further work in this direction may be optimizing multiple numbers of scale factors w.r.t different attacks to yield a highly robust watermarking scheme.

7. Title: A Novel Particle Swarm Optimization approach for VLSI Routing

Authors: Abhinandan Khan, Sulagna Laha and Subir Kumar Sarkar

Conference: IEEE International Advance Computing Conference, Dr. A.K Garg Institute, Ghaziabad, 22-23 February, 2013.

Abstract: Rapid advances in VLSI technology has increased the chip density by constantly increasing the number of constituents on a single chip, as well as decreasing the chip feature size. In such a complex scenario the primary objective is to limit the power-delay product of the system. It can be done by reducing the interconnect delay by optimizing the wire lengths i.e. by the proper interconnection of all the nodes. The minimum cost of interconnection of all nodes can be found by a Rectilinear Steiner Minimal Tree (RSMT) formed by the nodes. The problem of finding a RSMT is an NP-complete one. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is an efficient swarm intelligence algorithm which boasts of fast convergence and ease of implementation, capable of solving such a problem. This paper presents a novel discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) to solve the NP-complete problem i.e. finding the RSMT. A modified Prim’s

Algorithm has been adopted for the purpose of finding the cost of the RSMT. A unique modification to the traditional PSO has been done by introducing the Mutation operation of Genetic Algorithm (GA) which produces up to 20% reduction in the wire lengths or cost of interconnections. Two versions of the DPSO algorithm –one with linearly decreasing inertia weight and another with self- adaptive inertia weight - have been employed and their results have been compared. Comparisons have also been made between the results available from recent work and our algorithm and the latter has established itself to superior in optimizing the interconnect lengths and thereby finding the lowest wire lengths.

Status: Published in IEEE Xplore.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 The self-adaptive inertia weight technique is superior to the linearly decreasing inertia weight technique in case of the global routing problem dealt herein.

5.7.8. Working Plan during 2014-2017

To further investigate and implement the following algorithms:

 Algorithm 1: (Robust Copyright Protection Scheme Using Visual Attention Model)

Perceptual watermarking should all the time obtain complete advantage of the results from human visual system (HVS) studies. Based upon visual saliency’s modulation effect which integrates visual attention’s influence on visual sensitivity, this algorithm proposes an integrated visual saliency modulated HVS model guided least significant bit (LSB) watermarking scheme for copyright protection. The projected algorithm is able to embed more information into visually non-belligerent areas within the host image, estimated by the visual attention model. The region of uninterested (ROU) point out the most unimportant visible aspects of an image, so distortion within these areas will be less noticeable to any viewer. To defend against common signal processing attacks, for each ROU, an improved quantization method is employed to embed the copyright information. Investigational results reveal that the proposed method is more robust to various image impairments while minimum effect on the image quality.

 Algorithm 2: (Real Time Information Security Architecture in Frequency Domain) In this algorithm, a frequency domain watermarking algorithm and its real time implementation is discussed. The work emphasizes on a Human Visual System (HVS) watermarking approach using wavelet-lifting technique. Here, image registration algorithm is also introduced in order to increase the resiliency as well as security of the estimated recovered watermark image. The algorithmic steps and optimization considerations regarding the real time implementation on TMS320CDSK6416/6713, Fixed/ Floating Point DSP processor are also presented.

 Algorithm 3: (IP Protection using Biometrics based Information Hiding and Firewall)

IP based design is one of the most potential techniques to promote the SoC design promptly into market. To assist the process it is advantageous to have IP exchanged in different forms. Though, sharing IP blocks in today’s aggressive market poses significant security risks. Proving that a given IP is derived from a patented method or technique is in general a conscientiously time-consuming task, often requiring reverse-engineering and forensic investigation of IP. These techniques are so multifaceted that their uses to a huge collection of marketable products are almost always unaffordable. So protection of IPs in VLSI design has received a deal of interest in recent era. An information hiding based novel solution for IP Protection by embedding biometric copyright information and firewall inside an IP in the form of a finite state machine (FSM) with unique configuration is proposed in this scheme. The proposed scheme firstly, introduces copyright information obtained from biometric signature as ownership proof. Secondly the firewall interrupts the normal functionality of the IP on end of user time period. The experimental outcomes of FPGA implementation illustrate the efficiency of proposed method with low overhead.

Abstract: Discovering novel interactions between HIV-1 and human proteins would greatly contribute to different areas of HIV research. Identification of such interactions leads to a greater insight into drug target prediction. Some recent studies have been conducted for computational prediction of new interactions based on the experimentally validated information stored in a HIV-1-human protein- protein interaction database. However, these techniques do not predict any regulatory mechanism between HIV-1 and human proteins by considering interaction types and direction of regulation of interactions. Here we present an association rule mining technique based on biclustering for discovering a set of rules among human and HIV-1 proteins using the publicly available HIV-1- human PPI database. These rules are subsequently utilized to predict some novel interactions among HIV-1 and human proteins. For prediction purpose both the interaction types and direction of regulation of interactions, (i.e., virus-to-host or host-to-virus) are considered here to provide important additional information about the regulation pattern of interactions. We have also studied the biclusters and analyzed the significant GO terms and KEGG pathways in which the human proteins of the biclusters participate. Moreover the predicted rules have also been analyzed to discover regulatory relationship between some human proteins in course of HIV-1 infection. Some experimental evidences of our predicted interactions have been found by searching the recent literatures in PUBMED. We have also highlighted some human proteins that are likely to act against the HIV-1 attack.

Plewczynski, "Ensemble Learning Prediction of Protein-Protein Interactions using Proteins Functional Annotations", Molecular BioSystems, Vol. 10, No. 4, pp. 820-830, 2014. (Impact Factor: 3.35) (doi: 10.1039/C3MB70486F) Abstract: Protein–protein interactions are important for the majority of biological processes. A significant number of computational methods have been developed to predict protein-protein interactions using protein sequence, structural and genomic data. Vast experimental data is publicly available on the Internet, but it is scattered across numerous databases. This fact motivated us to create and evaluate new high-throughput datasets of interacting proteins. We extracted interaction data from DIP, MINT, BioGRID and IntAct databases. Then we constructed descriptive features for machine learning purposes based on data from Gene Ontology and DOMINE. Thereafter, four well- established machine learning methods: Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Decision Tree and Naive Bayes, were used on these datasets to build an Ensemble Learning method based on majority voting. In cross-validation experiment, sensitivity exceeded 80% and classification/prediction accuracy reached 90% for the Ensemble Learning method. We extended the experiment to a bigger and more realistic dataset maintaining sensitivity over 70%. These results confirmed that our datasets are suitable for performing PPI prediction and Ensemble Learning method is well suited for this task.

Title: Resource Allocation in Cloud using Simulated Annealing Authors: Diptangshu Pandit, Samiran Chattopadhyay, Matangini Chattopadhyay, Nabendu Chaki Name of the Journal/Conference:Applications and Innovations in Mobile Computing (AIMoC 2014) Abstract- One of the major problems in the domain of cloud computing is to allocate requests to resources maintaining high resource utilization. Many researchers have used heuristic algorithms, statistical methods, stochastic knapsack problem, and soft computing techniques to solve this problem. In this paper, we have utilized a variation of multidimensional (multi parameter) bin packing to model the problem. We have also presented an efficient resource allocation algorithm using simulated annealing. Our approach can be generalized to solve resource allocation problem in multiple layers of cloud computing. Furthermore, we have carried out experiments to illustrate efficiency of our algorithm with respect to commonly used First Come First Serve (FCFS) resource allocation method. Status: Published Most significant conclusion(s):  Proposed resource allocation algorithm with the help of simulated annealing significantly improves overall resource utilization compared to commonly used FCFS algorithm.  The proposed algorithm utilizes popular soft computing technique Simulated Annealing which provides near optimal solution without compromising much time.  This work is flexible and can be applied on one or multiple layers (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) of cloud computing architecture.

1. Title: Performance Analysis of Page Replacement Algorithms in Mobile Database Management System

Authors: Souvik Tripathy, Arijit Ghosh, Sandip Dey, Diganta Saha

Name of the Conference: Second International Conference on Computing and Systems

Abstract: This paper proposes a cache replacement policy with the mixing of LRU and LFU algorithms with some modifications in the cache sizes and searching techniques. This algorithm stores data from a file into a section of the main memory. The main cache block has been divided into two different blocks with different sizes. One of those units evicts the data using LRU and the other unit evicts the data using LFU. The data in the cache that has been used frequently has been put into the subsection of the cache which uses LFU algorithm. The simulation result shows the access time enhancement corresponding to the data along with the ‘recency’ and frequency from each subsection of cache and the main memory.

Status: Published in ICCS 2013 page no 263-269, Presented on 22nd September 2013.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 Performance and hit rate can be improved by splitting the queue unequally.

 The performance graph reveals the access time is slightly less in case of arcsv.

 When the no of data is large we need to concentrate more on the frequency rather than the recency.

2. Title: Object caching for University Examination System

Authors: Souvik Tripathy, Arijit Ghosh, Diganta Saha

Name of the Conference: 2nd International Conference on Advanced Computing, Networking, and Informatics

Abstract: Object oriented system of any University is the vital issue for any university. There could be chaos in the entire system and the performance level may degrade if the entire system is not handled meticulously. Already there are several established models to illustrate the whole system in a distributive way which is quite efficient in some cases. But if the number gets increased to a great extent and the admin has to handle a huge database, then only distributive system would not suffice the urge. Moreover a mobile device which suffers less memory, low bandwidth while wireless transmission would get smothered while dealing with the large database. Object Modeling Technique (OMT) and it’s methodologies for designing Examination system is crucial part which includes information systems, database patterns, computing systems with real time phenomena. The novelty of the paper is to model the entire system with OMT so that the functionality becomes less subtle for accessing the data for a client, a student more precisely. Besides that the paper also deals with the scenario where the forthcoming request can also be predicted from the earlier one by a thorough analysis. Overall the static and dynamic requirement of the application gets fulfilled in a broader aspect.

Status: First submission on 13th Feb 2014.

Most significant conclusion(s):

 This Object oriented systems quite vividly designs the university model in a more complete fashion than traditional methods. It is more reliable because of Objects are organized into classes of objects and associated with their behaviors inherited from super class.

 The entire model is designed from the object perspective and relational behavior of the classes has been depicted in the figure.

5.11.6 Work plan during 2014-17

 Attribute caching of university examination system with the recognition and analyze of mobile client request pattern.

 Performance analysis and comparison of splay tree, b-tree and r tree to optimize the cache performance in mobile cache.

5.12.6 Ongoing Work under UPE-II

(i) At present Prof. Subenoy Chakraborty is considering various Cosmological as well as Astrophysical problems where cosmic fluid is chosen mainly as perfect fluid. Both constant as well as variable equation of state parameter is considered. Due to complicated form of Einstein’s field equations, it is not possible to solve the evolution equations for arbitrary choice of the equation of state. So, they have considered some typical choices of the cosmic fluid. Also, they are examining the thermodynamical laws and the thermodynamical equilibrium for universal thermodynamics and are trying to determine the restrictions on the equation of state parameter.

(ii) Prof. S. Banerjea is presently working on water wave scattering problems. In presence of obstacle in form of a dock or in form of a vertical barrier has been investigated in single fluid or two fluid media with a free surface or ice cover has been investigated. The effect of uneven bottom topography of water region on the waves are studied. This class of problems require the use of various sophisticated numerical as well as mathematical methods like singular integral equation, integral transform, complex variable theory, function theoretic method etc. A study of singular integral equation has been made during this period.

(iii) Dr. S.C.Mandal is presently working on numerical solution of Boundary Value Problem using Finite Element Method and Boundary element Method.

(iv) Dr. Aloka Das derived a 16-mode model in Rayleigh Banard convection of ordinary fluid with stress free conducting boundaries in hexagonal lattice. The model shows different patterns in sigma-r parameter region. this model also conserve energy in non-dissipative limit, which shows a long range of validity of our model in phase space. It can capture patterns like roll, rhombus and hexagon. Such type of different patterns in a simple model is new and very interesting too.

(vii) The phase diagram (shown below) also shows that our model is valid in large parameter Space.

5.12.7 Work plan during 2014-17

Due to recent observational evidences, the universe at present is accelerating. In standard framework of Cosmology, we need some exotic cosmic fluid having large negative pressure. In Cosmology, such fluid is termed as Dark energy.

Plan for 2014-2015: The future research plan of Subenoy Chakraborty is to consider such exotic cosmic fluid in Cosmological problems. In particular, he is planning to consider various dark fluids namely, Holographic dark energy, Modified Chaplygin gas etc.

Plan for 2016-2017: Also, going a step further he has the intention of matching the theoretical results with the available observational predictions.

(i) The following works have been initiated and will be done during next three years:

Effect of slender body on the waves in ocean covered with ice.

Water wave scattering by a finite dock in presence of a step in bottom

Study of water wave propagation in presence of porous bottom

Study of water wave propagation in water region with mud below.

(ii) Propagation of nonlinear elastic waves in non-homogeneous medium will be investigated by using numerical methods(FEM,BEM).

(iii) Bifurcation analysis of our simple model is an interesting point to study.

(iv) Characterization of chaos and finding route to chaos are open problems for investigation.
