Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) that use the IEEE 802.11p communication standard face a number of challenges, not least when it comes to safety messages on the VANET control channel (CCH) where short delay times and reliable delivery are of pri⁃ mary importance. In this paper we propose a vehicular machine⁃to⁃machine (VM2M) overlay network that uses Long Term Evolu⁃ tion (LTE) physical rando...

Implantable Medical Devices (IMDs) are used to monitor and control patients with chronic diseases. A growing number of IMDs are equipped with a wireless interface that allows non-invasive monitoring and reprogramming through an external device, also known as device programmer. However, this wireless interface also brings important security and privacy risks that may lead to remote attacks. In t...

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) involves communication through a wire or wireless network without human intervention. M2M on Cellular network, also defined as Machine Type Communications (MTC) by 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), has shown great potential in the industry for its long distance wireless advantage. Different from the traditional human to human (H2H) communications, M2M communica...

The UWSN has found their place in many applications like sea exploration, flood detection and many more. The sensor nodes used in UWSN are installed with specialized depth sensors to compute the depth value of itself with respect to sink that is deployed at the surface. Obviously, to transfer data by sensor nodes to sink, some routing protocol is necessary for communication. There are many rout...

Currently the Long Term Evolution (LTE) System is an internationally recognized mobile communication standard for 4G. With the advent of Machine to machine (M2M) devices and network capability, a suitable uplink scheduling strategy is strongly needed for such systems. Scheduling method is one of the hot topics among current researches for M2M over LTE. It is found that there are major differenc...

Structured communication between trading partners is crucial in everyday business life. A lot of solutions of this problem exist, allowing application to application (A2A), human to application (H2A) and human to human (H2H) communication. Such formalized exchange of information is, in most cases, based on the XML language structures, standardized by different organizations e.g. OASIS, RosettaN...
