“…In this case, the values of the cost functions on the links are crisp, but the uncertainty is applied to the inference process itself. Thus, in [17], the authors developed a fuzzy inference system using the Expected Transmission Time (ETX) and the number of hops as input variables to find the best server node in a P2P wireless mesh. The fuzzification of these variables and their introduction in the fuzzy decision rules allow us to outperform the efficiency of traditional methods, which select the server node based on a min-hop or random criteria.…”

A communication network management system takes the measurements of its state variables at specific instants of time, considering them constant in the interval between two consecutive measurements. Nevertheless, this assumption is not true, since these variables evolve in real time. Therefore, uncertainty is inherent in the processing of the measurements during the intervals so that they cannot be efficiently managed using crisp variables. In this paper, we face this problem by modeling the communications network as a type-V fuzzy graph, where both the nodes and the links are described with precision, but the cost of each link is modeled as a triangular fuzzy number. Different fuzzy cost allocation functions and fuzzy optimization strategies are described and applied to the search for the shortest path between two nodes. An experimental study has been conducted using two representative networks: the backbone network of Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) and the National Science Foundation’s Network (NFSNET). In these networks, our fuzzy cost functions and strategies have been compared with the well-known crisp equivalents. The optimal search strategies are based on the proposed Fuzzy Dijkstra Algorithm (FDA), which is described deeply. The simulation results demonstrate that in all cases the fuzzy alternatives surpass or equal the crisp equivalents with statistically significant values. Specifically, the so-called Strategy 8 presents the best throughput, as it significantly exceeds the performance of all those evaluated, achieving a Global Mean Delivery Rate (GMDR) close to 1.

“…Sharing economy has facilitated Peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms development through new applications in connectivity technologies (Valdés et al, 2015). The new economic context, where P2P platforms appear to become increasingly common, differs from the traditional one by facilitating a strong connection between businesses and users in multiple ways (Fremstad, 2018).…”

This paper examines how Sustainable consumption behaviours are assembled in P2P platforms, based on 4 factors -Services portfolio complexity, Network membership, Reputation and Innovative practices -and its impact on P2P platform performance. Using data from one peer-topeer (P2P) accommodation platform in Romania and based on 2556 observations, we tested the research hypothesis using Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression. Specifically, Services portfolio complexity positively influences Sustainable consumption behaviours, while Network membership has a negative influence. Services portfolio complexity has a positive influence on Sustainable consumption behaviours when Innovative practices are high. Finally, Sustainable consumption behaviours positively influence P2P platform performance.

“…To address such security issues, Abujoda et al [Abujoda, Dietrich, Papadimitriou et al (2015)] implement and deploy a software-defined WMN (SDWMN) control plane in one of the confined community networks, in order to coordinate WMN transmission redirection. Through a comparative study of WMN and paws, Valdes et al [Valdes, Montesinos, Ariza et al (2015)] further study the potential benefits of shared WMN for public internet access. Their experimental results have shown that the shared WMN can provide a higher share of bandwidth utilization and can accommodate a large number of inbound traffic.…”

In order to deploy a secure WLAN mesh network, authentication of both users and APs is needed, and a secure authentication mechanism should be employed. However, some additional configurations of trusted third party agencies are still needed on-site to deploy a secure authentication system. This paper proposes a new block chain-based authentication protocol for WLAN mesh security access, to reduce the deployment costs and resolve the issues of requiring key delivery and central server during IEEE 802.11X authentication. This method takes the user's authentication request as a transaction, considers all the authentication records in the mesh network as the public ledger and realizes the effective monitoring of the malicious attack. Finally, this paper analyzes the security of the protocol in detail, and proves that the new method can solve the dependence of the authentication node on PKI and CA.
