Research ArticleOpen accessA Discrete Event Simulator for Extensive Defense Mechanism for Denial of Service Attacks AnalysisMaryam Tanha, Seyed Dawood Sajjadi Torshizi, S. ShamalaProblem statement: Seeking for defense mechanisms against low rate Denial of Service (DoS) attacks as a new generation of DoS attacks has received special attention during recent years. As a decisive factor, evaluating the performance of the offered mitigation techniques based on different metrics for determining the viability and ability of these countermeasures requires more research. Approach: The development of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 21 Mar 2012 · 7,473 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessA New Strategy for Signaling Overhead Reduction in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 ProtocolAdnan J. Jabir, S. Shamala, Z. ZuriatiProblem statement: The rapid growth of the Internet usage has been realized by the Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6). Concurrent to these technological advances is the communication overheads. Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) has been standardized to overcome the long handoff latency, packet loss and signaling overhead of MIPv6 and to exempt the mobile node from any involvement in the handoff process. Although … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 13 Feb 2012 · 7,507 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessA Discrete Event Modeling and Simulation of Wave Division Multiplexing Unidirectional Slotted Ring Metropolitan Area NetworkH. A. Fua’ad, S. Shamala, M. Othman, Z. ZuriatiProblem statement: The lack of uniformity in the choice of simulation platforms for optical WDM networks stands behind the difficulty of developing a common simulation environment. Correlating WDM unidirectional slotted ring network to Discrete Event Simulation (DES) encompassing event definition, time advancing mechanism and scheduler has yet to be developed. Approach: The study focused on the proposed and the development … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,685 accessesView PDF Cite
