Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Computing Infrastructure for Load Balancing

Ubiquitous computing helps make data and services available to users anytime and anywhere. This makes the cooperation of devices a crucial need. In return, such cooperation causes an overload of the devices and/or networks, resulting in network malfunction and suspension of its activities. Our goal in this paper is to propose an approach of devices reconfiguration in order to help to reduce the energy consumption in ubiquitous environments. The idea is that when high-energy consumption is detected, we proceed to a change in component distribution on the devices to reduce and/or balance the energy consumption. We also investigate the possibility to detect high-energy consumption of devices/network based on devices abilities. As a result, our idea realizes a reconfiguration of devices aimed at reducing the consumption of energy and/or load balancing in ubiquitous environments.

Intrusions Detection System Based on Ubiquitous Network Nodes

Ubiquitous computing allows to make data and services within the reach of users anytime and anywhere. This makes ubiquitous networks vulnerable to attacks coming from either inside or outside the network. To ensure and enhance networks security, several solutions have been implemented. These solutions are inefficient and or incomplete. Solving these challenges in security with new requirement of Ubicomp, could provide a potential future for such systems towards better mobility and higher confidence level of end user services. We investigate the possibility to detect network intrusions, based on security nodes abilities. Specifically, we show how authentication can help build user profiles in each network node. Authentication is based on permissions and restrictions to access to information and services on ubiquitous network. As a result, our idea realizes a protection of nodes and assures security of network.
