Network security is an important aspect in maintaining computer network systems and personal information from being illegally accessed by third parties. The major problem that frequently occurs in computer network systems is the failure in detecting possible network-attacks. Apart from that, the process of recognizing the type of attack that occurs is very crucial as it will determine the elimination process that should take place to counter the intrusion. This paper proposes the application of...

Popularity of Mobile ad hoc network in research is due to their ad hoc nature and effectiveness at the time of disaster management when no infrastructure support is available. Due to the limited transmission range of wireless network interfaces, multiple network hops may be needed for nodes to exchange data across the network. In such a network, each mobile node operates as a router, forwarding packets for other mobile nodes in the network that may not be within the direct reach. Routing...

Microgrid energy systems are one of suitable solutions to the available problems in power systems such as energy losses, and resiliency issues. Local generation by these energy systems can reduce the role of the upstream network, which is a challenge in risky conditions. Also, uncertain behavior of electricity consumers and generating units can make the optimization problems sophisticated. So, uncertainty modeling seems to be necessary.

Impairment of cognitive and working memory after stroke was common. Vascular dementia (VaD) was a prevalent type of dementia that was caused by an impaired blood supply to the brain because of a series of small strokes. Electroencephalogram (EEG) gives information about brain status and activity, so it had a lot of potential to be used in diagnosing people with dementia. Since the EEG signal is extremely non-linear and non-stationary data, traditional Fourier analysis such as Fast Fourier...

Due to its large peak to average power ratio (PAPR) and high out of band emission (OOBE), OFDM doesn't meet the requirements of 5G services. Additionally, it supports only one type of waveform parameters in entire bandwidth. In contrast, f-OFDM is dividing the system's bandwidth into a number of subbands to support several waveform parameters based on various service scenarios. So, Filtered-OFDM (f-OFDM) is considered as a modern enabler of the flexible waveform to overcome the OFDM drawbacks...
