“…If the TCP connection does not drop or reorder packets, that means they automatically arrive in-order at the TCP receiver [53]. This could be a point of failure for the fact that the next expected sequence number could be tricked to be greater than the current sequence number, especially in a heterogeneous path of 5G device and the server [54]. After evaluating the frequencies of the packets that are liable to create security breaches, the paths where they comes are also analyzed.…”

It is quite challenging to understand the weakest single points of failure in a network because it is the point where an entire network system can be taken down. The paths leading to a point of failure, and the status of packets that causes network security breaches were examined by Intent-Based Networking approach in this study. Two algorithms are proposed, utilizing single-path and multipath in transmission flow. Every path is potentially weak and a point of failure for which a network security can be breached. Two sets of rules, namely, "vulnerability rules policies" with "rules formulation" from the regions of connection recognized by Euler's theorem were outlined. The intent is to use these sets of rules in finding the point of failure the packet status that is leading to possible security breaches within network connections. The frequencies of the packets that are liable to create security breaches and the paths where they originate are analyzed. Well-formed packet originating from the least likely weak point of failure is associated the network security breach than malformed packets. This study has contributed to revealing that network security breaches are influenced by the paths with least likely point of failure from well-formed packets.

“…Among them, the Lowest-RTT-First (lowRTT) algorithm is the current default scheduler, which sends the packet first on the lowest RTT subflow until its congestion window is filled with the packet. Then, the packet is sent on the next higher RTT subflow [47]. According to Figure 1, eMTCP consumes more energy than lowRTT, and the throughput of eMTCP is lower than lowRTT.…”

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) allows the system to use available paths through multiple network interfaces. This aggregation of bandwidth increases the throughput of the network but also consumes more energy to maintain connections between multiple interfaces. Existing algorithms tend to shift traffic from the high energy path to the low energy path to save energy. However, when the performance of the less energy-intensive path deteriorates, continued use of that path will reduce throughput. To alleviate this issue and reduce energy consumption while ensuring network throughput, this paper proposes an energy-saving scheduling system named ES-MPTCP, which can be combined with the path management module to manage subflows, thereby determining the priority of subflows and which subflows to be used for data transmission. The ES-MPTCP algorithm designs a target optimization function based on path throughput and energy consumption to find different sets of suitable subflows for different applications to reduce energy consumption and guarantee throughput. The extensive experimental results based on the Linux real platform demonstrate that the ES-MPTCP algorithm has the best performance, which can improve throughput by 13.6%, reduce energy consumption by 16.2% and increase the energy efficiency up to 23%.

Scheduling is a fundamental factor in managing the network resource of the Internet of things. For IoT systems such as production lines, to operate effectively, it is necessary to find an intelligent management scheme, i.e., schedule, for network resources. In this study, we focus on multiskill resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MS-RCPSP), a combinational optimization problem that has received extensive attention from the research community due to its advantages in network resource management. In recent years, many approaches have been utilized for solving this problem such as genetic algorithm and ant colony optimization. Although these approaches introduce various optimization techniques, premature convergence issue also occurs. Moreover, previous studies have only been verified on simulation data but not on real data of factories. This paper formulated the MS-RCPSP and then proposed a novel algorithm called DEM to solve it. The proposed algorithm was developed based on the differential evolution metaheuristic. Besides, we build the reallocate function to improve the solution quality so that the proposed algorithm converges rapidly to global extremum while also avoiding getting trapped in a local extremum. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we conduct the experiment on iMOPSE, the simulated dataset used by previous authors in their research studies. In addition, DEM was verified on real dataset supported by a famous textile industry factory. Experimental results on both simulated data and real data show that the proposed algorithm not only finds a better schedule compared with related works but also can reduce the processing time of the production line currently used at the textile industry factory.
