An Integrated Blockchain and IPFS Solution for Secure and Efficient Source Code Repository Hosting using Middleman Approach

Centralized version control systems (VCS) are vital for software development but pose risks of data loss and ownership disputes. While blockchain offers a decentralized alternative, existing solutions are often hindered by high latency, compromising the real-time collaboration essential for modern workflows. This study introduces a novel hybrid architecture combining the security of the Ethereum blockchain and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) with two key contributions: 1) Shamir's Secret Sharing (SSS) to create a trust-minimized model for key distribution, and 2) an authoritative-first, optimistic-fallback retrieval protocol utilizing a temporary middleware to decouple the user experience from blockchain confirmation delays. We implemented a full prototype and conducted a comprehensive performance evaluation on the public Sepolia testnet. Our results demonstrate that this architecture not only provides a secure, auditable, and resilient platform for source code hosting but also achieves highly competitive user-perceived performance. Our user-perceived push time reduces submission latency by up to 49% compared to a standard git push for common repository sizes, proving that a well-designed decentralized VCS can balance the core tenets of security and decentralization with the practical need for speed and efficiency.

Performance Analytical Comparison of Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) Platforms

Both blockchain technologies and cloud computing are contemporary emerging technologies. While the application of Blockchain technologies is being spread beyond cryptocurrency, cloud computing is also seeing a paradigm shift to meet the needs of the 4th industrial revolution (Industry 4.0). New technological ad-vancement, especially by the fusion of these two, such as Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS), is considered to be able to significantly generate values to the en-terprises. This article surveys the current status of BaaS in terms of technological development, applications, market potentials and so forth. An evaluative judge-ment, comparing amongst various BaaS platforms, has been presented, along with the trajectory of adoption, challenges and risk factors. Finally, the study suggests standardisation of available BaaS platforms.

Communication Interface Identifier Protocol (CIIP): An Energy Efficient Protocol for smaller IoT Sensor

Today we can use technologies like switched Ethernet, TCP/IP, high-speed wide area networks, and high-performance low-cost computers very easily. However, protocols designed for those communication are inefficient or not energy efficient. Smart home, smart grid, blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT) all these technologies are coming very rapidly with higher communication facilities demands an energy efficient Ethernet. Due to controller and network equipment use a huge quantity of energy. Layer to layer communication making our communication method more complex and costly. In this work, we propose an architecture, which will make the communication of sensor devices to outside world easier. Our proposed system removes certain layer from TCP-IP communication. We used a communication interface identifier protocol (CIIP) which can be used for smaller IoT sensors.

A Recruitment and Human Resource Management Technique Using Blockchain Technology for Industry 4.0

Application of Information Technology (IT) in the domain of Human Resource Management (HRM) systems is a sine qua non for any organization for successfully adopting and implementing Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0). However, these systems are required to ensure non-biased, efficient, transparent and secure environment. Blockchain, a technology based on distributed digital ledgers, can help facilitate the process of successfully effectuating these specifications. A detailed literature review has been conducted to identify the current status of usage of Information Technology in the domain of Human Resource Management and how Blockchain can help achieve a smart, cost-effective, efficient, transparent and secure factory management system. A Blockchain based Recruitment Management System (BcRMS) as well as Blockchain based Human Resource Management System (BcHRMS) algorithm have been proposed. From the analysis of the results obtained through the case study, it is evident that the proposed system holds definite advantages compared to the existing recruitment systems. Future research directions have also been identified and advocated.

Prediction of a Gene Regulatory Network from Gene Expression Profiles With Linear Regression and Pearson Correlation Coefficient

Reconstruction of gene regulatory networks is the process of identifying gene dependency from gene expression profile through some computation techniques. In our human body, though all cells pose similar genetic material but the activation state may vary. This variation in the activation of genes helps researchers to understand more about the function of the cells. Researchers get insight about diseases like mental illness, infectious disease, cancer disease and heart disease from microarray technology, etc. In this study, a cancer-specific gene regulatory network has been constructed using a simple and novel machine learning approach. In First Step, linear regression algorithm provided us the significant genes those expressed themselves differently. Next, regulatory relationships between the identified genes has been computed using Pearson correlation coefficient. Finally, the obtained results have been validated with the available databases and literatures. We can identify the hub genes and can be targeted for the cancer diagnosis.

A Novel Approach for Network Attack Classification Based on Sequential Questions

With the development of incipient technologies, user devices becoming more exposed and ill-used by foes. In upcoming decades, traditional security measures will not be sufficient enough to handle this huge threat towards distributed hardware and software. Lack of standard network attack taxonomy has become an indispensable dispute on developing a clear understanding about the attacks in order to have an operative protection mechanism. Present attack categorization techniques protect a specific group of threat which has either messed the entire taxonomy structure or ambiguous when one network attacks get blended with few others attacks. Hence, this raises concerns about developing a common and general purpose taxonomy. In this study, a sequential question-answer based model of categorization is proposed. In this article, an intrusion detection framework and threat grouping schema are proposed on the basis of four sequential questions (Who, Where, How and What). We have used our method for classifying traditional network attacks in order to identify initiator, source, attack style and seriousness of an attack. Another focus of the paper is to provide a preventive list of actions for network administrator as a guideline to reduce overall attack consequence. Recommended taxonomy is designed to detect common attacks rather than any particular type of attack which can have a practical effect in real life attack classification. From the analysis of the classifications obtained from few infamous attacks, it is obvious that the proposed system holds certain benefits related to the prevailing taxonomies. Future research directions have also been well acknowledged.
