Country :: India
Authors :: Sanjeev Kumar Mandal || A R Deepti
Page No. :: 01-07

In the internet world, there is a need for strong cryptographic techniques for data transmission and storing confidential information. To do this, an approach has been made by using the mathematical proof of the existence of a consistent formation of the Euler totient function to generate a key. Then the principles of number theory functions have been proposed in the encryption/decryption process. Thus, this structure is simple and powerful to use; in generating a key, computation of encryption/decryption process and key transmission.

Keywords: Cryptography, Euler Totient function, Number Theory, Testing tools, Modified RSA algorithm.

The rates of building collapse in Nigeria in the past twenty years have assumed a very worrisome dimension as many lives have been lost and huge investments wasted. Several causes have been attributed to natural or man-made phenomena. Survey carried out have shown that the use of substandard building materials, poor workmanship, non-enforcement of building codes or construction regulations, corruption in the building industry etc. have contributed immensely in most of the recorded cases of building failures. This paper is set to examine the application of Poisson and negative binomial regression models to identify the major factors that contributes to building collapse in Nigeria and toascertain the better model suitable for prediction of building collapse or failure in Nigeria, using a secondary data which span from (1995 – 2016). Maximum likelihood estimation procedure was used to estimate the parameter of the selected model. With the number of incidents of building collapse data as the response variable (Y) and 7-explanatory variable (X's), applying the forward selection criteria to the 7-explanatory variables................

Title :: A Survey on Certificate-Less Public Key Encryption for Authentication in a Smart IoT-Based LoRaWAN
Country :: India
Authors :: Srishti Tiwari || Dr. Hiren B. Patel || Dr. Bela Shrimali
Page No. :: 22-28

Key management and authentication are the two key components to make sure that the entities involved in communication process in Internet of Things (IoT) operate securely. Due to architectural as well as operational differences between a conventional network and an IoT network, protocols and techniques used in a traditional key management are not well-suited for IoT. Mutual authentication is one of the critical task to achieve in an IoT network as the entities are spread across wide area with limited memory capacity and battery power. This can be achieved with the implementation of certificate-less public-key cryptography (CL-PKC) in IoT. Many recent researches have been carried out about Long Range (LoRa) and Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) which are newly developed communication architectures..........

Keywords: IoT, certificate, certificate-less, key, attacks, security, long, range, network, key-generator, battery.

Early Warning System Model designed using Android-based mobile technology, with the aim of maintaining the continuity of injection contraceptive use. This system will provide an effective program for acceptors, so that they will periodically inject according to schedule. An early warning system will send text messages based Web Services via mobile devices such as smart phones. The use of contraceptives is one of the efforts made by the government to reduce the population growth rate, the use of contraception that is predominantly used by acceptors is injection contraception, therefore the use of contraceptives must be maintained, the results of this study are models of early warning systems designed to help acceptors in remembering their periodic injection schedule in the next period and provide various information about the implementation of family planning programs through text messages. Waterfall and in the development of system design using integrated modeling language namely Unified Modeling Language (UML).

Title :: Iot Based Security System for Monitoring Surveillance Area by Using Raspberry Pi with Android App Alerts

Authors :: Vasudev Emmennavar || Dr. U. B. Mahadeva Swamy
Page No. :: 51-58

People are surrounded by a wide variety of electronic gadgets, sensors and devices which range from mobile phones, routers, home automation systems and many more. They are all embedded systems, be it a small device or a big one. Internet of Things is an approach of transferring information from one entity to the other inter-connected to a network through a wireless connection to a remote device. It is an area of interest which is growing very fast. It can be as simple as communicating a small message between two devices or as complex as sending information from a spaceship connected to a space station using embedded systems through cloud services. The proposed work aims at using sensors and IoT based Security System to monitor a secured area remotely for any activity that might occur. The application polls the surveillance area continuously and once an activity is detected, images of the particular activity are captured using a camera connected to a Raspberry Pi Board. This application uses OpenCV, computer vision library and detects the motion. The captured pictures are uploaded to a dropbox and simultaneously the GSM interface alerts the user using the android application through a voice output that some activity has occurred and needs user's attention. The Android app plays a voice output as "Caution camera image is captured".
