“…However, accurate comparisons are not straightforward given the variety in methodologies, evaluation platforms, simulation parameters and performance metrics employed. As a result, the existing literature on SDPs for MANETs also reports comparisons against a default broadcast-flooding approach [4]- [7].…”

We present our Service Directory Placement Protocol (SDPP), a multi-directory scheme for service discovery in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs). SDPP promotes the use of both fixed and mobile directories co-existing in a hybrid setting comprised of devices with different memory availability. Our proposed system is based on a heuristic approach, whose performance is optimized by formulating the directory-placement problem as a SemiMarkov Decision Process solved by Q-Learning. Performance evaluations reveal typical performance gains ranging between 15% and 75% of SDPP compared with a default broadcast approach for MANETs comprised of hosts moving at pedestrian speeds. A two-step process for practical implementation based on "off-line" computer simulations is also described.

“…The efficiency of this system depends on the accuracy with which the Capacity of Service parameter of service providers is assessed among MANET hosts. Other approaches exist too, which rely on surrogate or volunteer hosts that process service discovery queries in a proxy-like fashion [6], [7].…”

“…This proposal cannot be extended to healthcare applications for selection of desired HCP since the patient preferences vary among the patients and cannot be generalised or predefined. Kim et al (2006) proposed an architecture which exploits stable and resourceful nodes termed as volunteers for directory services. The volunteer nodes played the major role of discovering the services.…”

The healthcare providers have tremendously grown during the past decade. Selecting a healthcare provider based on patient's preference is really a great challenge. The purpose of this paper is to provide an IT enabled framework that will help the patients to find a suitable healthcare provider based on their preferences. The patients' preferences in selecting a healthcare provider differ based on their geographical region, gender, age and socioeconomic background. Discovering a set of feasible healthcare providers and selecting the most appropriate healthcare provider based on the patient preferences can be modelled as a multi-criteria decision making problem. In this article, a novel patient friendly framework is proposed for selecting the best healthcare provider. Even with a huge dataset, the results show that the proposed framework is robust, reliable, faster and effective. The analysis reveals that the number of preferences and the healthcare providers influence the healthcare selection time. Case studies on 500 patients from different geographical regions reveal that the proposed framework is effective.

“…The work done by Mokhtar et al ( 2008) is adopted as a module in our IoT service. Kim, Kumar, and Shirazi (2006) also proposed service discovery architecture for pervasive computing environments. The proposed architecture exploits stable and resourceful nodes which perform directory services in the network.…”

Internet of Things (IoT) is considered as the developing tendency of network technology, generally it refers to the networked interconnection of different kinds of things (objects). Compared with the Internet, IoT provides a wider platform to share more information. In this situation, the information service in IoT is necessary to organize the process of getting and sharing information for the IoT user. This paper considers that IoT service should have active, personalized, and intelligent features. The architecture for IoT service is given, which consists of three layers: perception layer, network layer, and service layer. Correspondingly, models ftoor identify users need and service coordination are proposed. E-commerce is one of the most important applications on the Internet and is a typical format of information service. Thus, this paper chooses e-commerce as the application case to research and show how IoT service works in reality.
