The rise of cyber-physical-social systems (CPSS) as a novel paradigm has revolutionized the relationship among humans, computers and physical environment. The key technologies to design CPSS directly related to multidisciplinary technologies including cyber-physical systems (CPS) and cyber-social systems (CSS). Unfortunately, the design of CPSS is not an easier process because of the network heterogeneity, complex hardware and software entities. At the same time, fog computing is emerged as an expansion of cloud computing which efficiently addresses the abovementioned issue. Resource provisioning is a main technology involved in fog computing. This paper devises a novel fuzzy clustering with flower pollination algorithm called FCM-FPA as a resource provisioning model for fog computing. At the earlier stage, the resource attributes are standardized and normalized. Next, the fuzzy clustering with FPA is developed for partitioning the resources and the scalability of resource searching has been minimized. At last, the presented resource provisioning algorithm based on optimized fuzzy clustering has been devised. The performance of the proposed FCM-FPA model has been tested using a set of two benchmark Iris and Wine dataset. The experimental outcome ensured that the FCM-FPA model has shown proficient results over the compared methods by offering maximum user satisfaction and effective resource provisioning.

DBTMA relies entirely on RTS/CTS dialogue for un-collided transmission of data. The purpose is to improve the QoS at MAC layer by developing it over 802.11e standard. However, DBTMA does not guarantee real-time constraints without efficient method for controlling the network loads. The main challenges in MANETs include prediction of the available bandwidth, establishing communication with neighboring nodes and predicting the consumption of bandwidth flow. These challenges are provided with solutions using Contention-Aware Admission Control (CACP) protocol. In this paper, the EDBTMA protocol is combined with CACP protocol that introduces bandwidth calculation using admission control strategy. The calculation includes certain metrics like: admission control and bandwidth consumption. To compute the bandwidth of channel, bandwidth utilization and traffic priority is distinguished through dual busy tone is proposed. This operates distinctly on its own packet transmission operation. This CACP mechanism defends the conventional traffic flows from new nodes and based on the measured status information of the channel, it QoS of the admitted flows is maintained. This ensures maximum amount of bandwidth flows accommodated by resources and determines the resources in a system meet the new flow requirements while maintaining existing bandwidth flow levels.
