    2025 International Conference on Smart and Sustainable Technology Incsst 2025, 2025
    In the self-provisioning model for cloud services, where customers directly engage with Cloud Service Providers (CSP), a comprehensive analysis of service needs, resource capacities, and location parameters is crucial. The landscape of CSPs, service catalogs, and Quality of Service (QoS) is expanding, prompting a shift from traditional crawler-based tools to machine learning methods. The challenge of identifying a suitable CSP based on QoS requirements is heightened compared to provisioning identified resources. Consequently, we propose a Service-Aware Multi-Criteria CSP recommender system, which furnishes a curated list of CSPs. Operating within a self-service delivery paradigm, the system hinges on QoS parameters encompassing the requisite service, service location, and CSP location. The implementation of the proposed recommender system is accomplished through a deep neural network, and the obtained results are rigorously validated using the publicly available WS-DREAM dataset. Our results demonstrate a notable improvement in the response time and throughput surpassing the previous service recommender systems. This highlights the efficacy of our approach in enhancing recommendation accuracy.

  • Secure Communication in WSN-Based VANETs Using IoT and Elliptic Curve Cryptography
    Raghavendra Maggavi, Basavaraj Patil, Anand Gudnavar, Keerti Naregal
    2025 Global Conference on Information Technology and Communication Networks Gitcon 2025, 2025
    Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are a cornerstone of intelligent transportation systems, enabling seamless real-time communication between vehicles and infrastructure. However, their open and dynamic nature exposes them to security threats such as spoofing, data tampering, and unauthorized access. To mitigate these vulnerabilities, this paper presents a secure and efficient communication framework for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)-based VANETs using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). The proposed system integrates Raspberry Pi and the MQTT protocol to provide lightweight encryption and authentication, ensuring secure data exchange between an Onboard Unit (OBU) in emergency vehicles and Roadside Units (RSUs) managing traffic signals. This secure communication enables real-time emergency message transmission, allowing RSUs to dynamically prioritize ambulances and other emergency vehicles by adjusting traffic signals. By leveraging ECC for cryptographic security and MQTT for reliable, low-latency messaging, the system enhances data integrity, prevents unauthorized message manipulation, and reduces emergency response time. This cost-effective and scalable approach strengthens VANET security while improving traffic management and emergency response efficiency in smart city environments.

    This paper presents Infra-Alert, a crowdsourced digital platform designed to modernize public grievance redressal by addressing inefficiencies in traditional complaint resolution mechanisms. Citizens in India often face challenges due to poorly maintained infrastructure, including potholes, faulty streetlights, and uncollected garbage, with bureaucratic processes delaying resolutions. Infra-Alert provides a real-time, transparent, and automated system for lodging complaints, ensuring seamless submission with geolocation tracking and image uploads. Developed using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL, Infra-Alert enables structured complaint routing, direct departmental complaints in PDF format, and Cloudinary-based cloud storage for issue images. A user-friendly dashboard allows citizens to track their complaint status, while authorities can efficiently view, solve, or reject issues, and improving accountability. The system streamlines data management, and enhances municipal responsiveness, bridging the gap between citizens and governing bodies. Future enhancements may include AI-driven complaint verification, automated prioritization, and chatbot-based assistance to further optimize urban issue resolution. This study underscores the necessity for digital transformation in public grievance systems, demonstrating how technology can enhance urban governance and service delivery.

    2025 International Conference on Smart and Sustainable Technology Incsst 2025, 2025
    This paper introduces a Kannada Voice-Based Automated Bank Form-Filling System which uses speech recognition, transliteration, and text-to-speech technologies to fill the gap between non-English speakers and banking documentation. The application’s frontend is constructed with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, while the backend is created with Flask which is a Python framework. The system read out each field name in Kannada as a user starts the form-filling process (for example, “Name” is read as “”). After that, users can give their answers in Kannada, further it will be translated into English and then input will be entered into the appropriate form areas or fields. The system makes use of text-to-speech synthesis to produce Kannada audio feedback, Google’s Speech Recognition API used to record voice input, and Indic Transliteration to translate Kannada text into English. The project’s dynamic handling of numerical quantities, especially for financial transactions, is one of its main features. Number words in Kannada, such as “” meaning fifty, are automatically converted to their respective numerical equivalents or values. This system is especially helpful for the senior citizens, rural populations, blind people, and those people with limited English literacy. Its user-friendly voice-based interface lessens the need for human assistance at bank. The proposed system is a web-based platform that replicates bank forms exactly as they appear in physical format. Further the user can just take the printout of the form via clicking on option to download the pdf format of the form and also includes the summarization of the form in Kannada

    Iccece 2025 International Conference on Computer Electrical and Communication Engineering, 2025
    This paper develops a Smart Public Transportation System using RFID technology, IoT integration, and a MERN-based web application for increasing the efficiency, accessibility, and user experience of urban transit systems. It addresses problems such as unreliable bus tracking, lack of support for multilingualism, and ineffective communication between operators and passengers. The key hardware components include RFID tags for bus identification, and IoT-enabled bus stations with RFID scanners, speakers, GSM modules for data transmission, and LCD displays. These ensure accurate real-time updates about the bus locations. On the software side, it is supported by a MERN stack, including MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, and Node.js, providing a responsive web interface that’s complemented by Leaflet.js for dynamic route visualization and WebSockets for live updates. Multilingual support through i18next makes it inclusive for various user groups. The system is efficient in that it only updates when RFID scanners capture bus tags at certain checkpoints, thereby reducing server load much more than GPS-based systems. Additional features include route tracking, interactive maps, ticket pricing, and anonymous passenger chats. Crowd-sourced feedback mechanisms and an admin panel for bus management ensure the reliability and scalability of the system. This work shows the feasibility of cost-effective, scalable, and user-centric modernization of public transportation systems, paving the way for further enhancements such as integrated payment systems and AI-based route optimization.

    2025 6th International Conference for Emerging Technology Incet 2025, 2025
    In recent years, real-time object detection has become a critical requirement in fields such as autonomous driving, surveillance, and robotics. Traditional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) often deliver strong accuracy but can struggle with inference speed and the detection of small or overlapping objects. This paper addresses the need for a more robust and efficient solution by comparing a CNN-based model and YOLOv8 on a representative dataset, focusing on metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and inference time. Our objective is to determine which architecture best meets the demands of time-sensitive applications without compromising detection performance. We train both models under uniform conditions, employing consistent data augmentation and hyper parameters, and evaluate them in the same testing environment. The results reveal that YOLOv8 not only outperforms the CNN in accuracy and F1-score but also delivers real-time inference at approximately 90 frames per second. This significant improvement in speed and detection quality underscores the suitability of YOLOv8 for applications that require instantaneous object recognition. By highlighting these comparative insights, we offer a clear solution pathway for researchers and industry practitioners seeking an optimal balance between performance and computational cost in real-world detection tasks.
  • Energy efficient routing protocol for enhancing the network lifetime in wireless sensor network
    Veeresh Hiremath, Sidlingappa Kerur, Anand Gudnavar
    Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2024
    Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) confront significant challenges related to battery capacity, as sensor nodes operate on limited energy resources. To address this issue, low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is commonly employed for power management in WSNs. LEACH is commonly used for power management. Here, sensing region is divided into clusters and sectors, placing a gateway node at the center to minimize energy consumption during data transmission. It employs one-hop, two-hop, or three-hop pathways based on node proximity to the base station (BS) to optimize energy usage. Network performance is assessed using rounds, throughput, and energy usage. MATLAB simulations compare the proposed approach with dual layer LEACH (DL-LEACH) and LEACH, showing significant improvements in network lifetime. The proposed scheme outperforms LEACH by 515% and 347% for 20% and 50% node depletion, respectively. Compared to DL-LEACH, it extends network lifetime by 27% and 59% under similar scenarios. Sectoring, clustering, and multi-hop communication reduce energy consumption, enhancing network lifetime and addressing WSN challenges effectively.
