Summary
This study introduces a Context-Aware Trust and Reputation Routing (CATR) protocol to improve data forwarding in opportunistic IoT networks by dynamically assessing node trustworthiness, reducing packet loss and delays.
Area of Science:
- Computer Science
- Networking
- Internet of Things (IoT)
Background:
- Opportunistic IoT (OppIoT) networks face challenges with non-cooperative nodes, causing data forwarding issues like packet loss and delays.
- Existing routing protocols struggle to efficiently manage node behavior in dynamic OppIoT environments.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel Context-Aware Trust and Reputation Routing (CATR) protocol for OppIoT networks.
- To enhance data dissemination efficiency and network performance by identifying and bypassing malicious nodes.
Main Methods:
- Developed the CATR protocol, utilizing the beta distribution's probability density function and contextual factors.
- Dynamically computed node trust and reputation values for intelligent routing decisions.
- Conducted simulations using the ONE simulator to evaluate CATR's performance.
Main Results:
- CATR demonstrated superior performance compared to Epidemic, BTRES, and PPHB+ protocols.
- Achieved significant improvements: 22% in average latency, 15% in message drop reduction, and 9% in average hop count.
- Performance gains were consistent across varying network parameters like node count and buffer size.
Conclusions:
- The CATR protocol effectively addresses challenges posed by non-cooperative nodes in OppIoT networks.
- CATR offers a robust solution for efficient and secure data dissemination in opportunistic networking environments.

IP3/DAG Signaling Pathway
11.9K
Membrane lipids such as phosphatidylinositol (PI) are precursors for several membrane-bound and soluble second messengers. Specific kinases phosphorylate PI and produce phosphorylated inositol phospholipids. One such inositol phospholipids are the phosphatidylinositol-4,5 bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2], present in the inner half of the lipid bilayer. Upon ligand binding, GPCR stimulates Gq proteins to turn on phospholipase Cꞵ. Activated phospholipase Cꞵ cleaves PI(4,5)P2 and...

Routes of Persuasion
63.8K
Persuasion is the process of changing our attitude toward something based on some kind of communication. Much of the persuasion we experience comes from outside forces. How do people convince others to change their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors? What communications do you receive that attempt to persuade you to change your attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors?

Network Function of a Circuit
257
Frequency response analysis in electrical circuits provides vital insights into a circuit's behavior as the frequency of the input signal changes. The transfer function, a mathematical tool, is instrumental in understanding this behavior. It defines the relationship between phasor output and input and comes in four types: voltage gain, current gain, transfer impedance, and transfer admittance. The critical components of the transfer function are the poles and zeros.

Short-distance Transport of Resources
15.6K
Short-distance transport refers to transport that occurs over a distance of just 2-3 cells, crossing the plasma membrane in the process. Small uncharged molecules, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water, can diffuse across the plasma membrane on their own. In contrast, ions and larger molecules require the assistance of transport proteins due to their charge or size. Transport across membranes also occurs within individual cells, playing a variety of essential roles for the plant as a whole.

Carrier-Mediated Transport
254
Carrier-mediated transport is a pivotal process in drug absorption, particularly for lipid-insoluble drugs, and encompasses facilitated diffusion and active transport. Facilitated diffusion allows drugs to move along their concentration gradient without energy expenditure, while active transport utilizes ATP to drive drug movement against this gradient.
Active transport involves two types of membrane-spanning transporters: uptake and efflux. Uptake transporters are expressed in the small...

Directional Relays
92
Directional relays, essential for managing unidirectional fault currents, enhance the safety and efficiency of power systems. On power lines equipped with directional relays, faults downstream (to the right) of the current transformer typically cause the fault current to lag the bus voltage by approximately 90 degrees, known as the forward direction. In contrast, upstream (left-side) faults may result in the fault current leading the bus voltage by nearly 90 degrees, termed the reverse...
