In next-generation of wireless communication systems, Fifth-Generation (5G), small cells deployment is one of the most important issues that must be taking in the account. This paper discusses this issue in three aspects. First, it aims to derive the Critical Handover Location (CHL) point for neighbouring wireless stations which in turn is considered an entrance to the second aspect of this work that decides the small cell placement in one network. Finally, the work proposed a new approach to evaluating the Number of Small Cells (NRS) deployment mathematically. The proposed approach provides the balance in resources allocation in the network in terms of transmitted power of each small cell and their placement in order to provide maximum capacity and coverage area with a lower level of interference between nearest wireless stations thus decreasing the total cost of network insulation.

High mobility requirements are one of the challenges face fifth-generation wireless (5G) cellular networks by providing acceptable wireless services to users traveling at speed up to 350 km/h. This paper presents a new scenario to increase the bit rate and coverage for passengers that use the vehicles for traveling through the installation a mobile station (MS) on these vehicles to provide a high-quality service to users. Based on signal to noise ratio (SNR's) mathematical derivation and the outage probability of the user link, the proposed system is evaluated. Numerical results indicate an enhancement for users who received signal strength (RSS) from (-72 to-55) dBm and (15 to 38) Mbps in bit rate. Moreover, their number of users increased by proposed system adoption.

Fog computing has been regarded as an ideal platform for distributed and diverse IoT applications. Fog environment consists of a network of fog nodes and IoT applications are composed of containerized microservices communicating with each other. Distribution and optimization of containerized IoT applications in the fog environment is a recent line of research. Our work took Kubernetes as an orchestrator that instantiates, manages, and terminates containers in multiple-host environments for IoT applications, where each host acts as a fog node. This paper demonstrates the industrial feasibility and practicality of deploying and managing containerized IoT applications on real devices (raspberry pis and PCs) by utilizing commercial software tools (Docker, WeaveNet). The demonstration will show that the application's functionality is not affected by the distribution of communicating microservices on different nodes.

Small-cell-deployments have pulled cellular operators to boost coverage and capacity in high-demand areas (for example, downtown hot spots). The location of these small cells (SCs) should be determined in order to achieve successful deployments. In this paper, we propose a new approach that optimizes small cells deployment in cellular networks to achieve three objectives: reduce the total cost of network installation, balancing the allocation of resources, i.e. placement of each SC and their transmitted power, and providing optimal coverage area with a lower amount of interference between adjacent stations. An accurate formula was obtained to determine the optimum number of SC deployment (NSC). Finally, we derive a mathematical expression to calculate the critical-handoff-point (CHP) for neighboring wireless stations.

This paper describes the deployment of a large-scale study designed to measure human interactions across a variety of communication channels, with high temporal resolution and spanning multiple years—the Copenhagen Networks Study. Specifically, we collect data on face-to-face interactions, telecommunication, social networks, location, and background information (personality, demographics, health, politics) for a densely connected population of 1 000 individuals, using state-of-the-art smartphones as social sensors. Here we provide an overview of the related work and describe the motivation and research agenda driving the study. Additionally, the paper details the data-types measured, and the technical infrastructure in terms of both backend and phone software, as well as an outline of the deployment procedures. We document the participant privacy procedures and their underlying principles. The paper is concluded with early results from data analysis, illustrating the importance of multi-channel high-resolution approach to data collection.

The goal of this document is to elucidate the requirements that the various actors involved with future Internet choreographies will have from the CHOReOS Integrated Development and Runtime Environment (IDRE). Since the IDRE integrates the work performed in the work packages WP 2-4, the aforementioned requirements lead to the specification of requirements for WP 2-4, specifically those requirements which will govern how they will integrate with each other.

Fog computing has been regarded as an ideal platform for distributed and diverse IoT applications. Fog environment consists of a network of fog nodes and IoT applications are composed of containerized microservices communicating with each other. Distribution and optimization of containerized IoT applications in the fog environment is a recent line of research. Our work took Kubernetes as an orchestrator that instantiates, manages, and terminates containers in multiple-host environments for IoT applications, where each host acts as a fog node. This paper demonstrates the industrial feasibility and practicality of deploying and managing containerized IoT applications on real devices (raspberry pis and PCs) by utilizing commercial software tools (Docker, WeaveNet).

In recent years, service-oriented systems are becoming
increasingly complex, with growing size and heterogeneity.
Developing and deploying such large-scale systems present several challenges, such as reliability, reproducibility, handling failures on infrastructure, scaling deployment time as composition size grows, coordinating deployment among multiple organizations, dependency management, and supporting requirements of adaptable systems. However, many organizations still rely on manual deployment processes, which imposes difficulties in overcoming such challenges. In this paper, we propose a flexible and extensible middleware solution that addresses the challenges present in the large-scale deployment of service compositions. The CHOReOS Enactment Engine is a robust middleware infrastructure to automate the deployment of large-scale service compositions. We describe the middleware architecture and implementation and then present experimental results demonstrating the feasibility of our approach.
