Abstract

Mission-critical applications refer to the real-time applications, which require fast and secure service provisioning, such as defense sector and disaster management. This paper proposes a delay-aware and secure service provisioning model for such types of applications. As a use-case, we have considered the defense sector, which is a vital sector for a country’s all-round well-being including security, safety, society, and economy. In the conventional sensor-cloud model, the sensor data is stored and processed in the cloud. However, the sensor nodes have small coverage and the use of the long distant cloud servers increases the delay. Therefore, the conventional sensor-cloud model may not be efficient for defense application. Moreover, data hiding for security purposes is another important aspect of this field. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a mobility-aware sensor-fog paradigm for mission-critical applications based on network coding and steganography, referred to as Mobi-Sense. In Mobi-Sense, steganography is used for hiding the data during transmission. The theoretical results demonstrate that Mobi-Sense outperforms the existing frameworks with respect to delay and power consumption by \(\sim (40-80)\)%. The simulation results present that Mobi-Sense reduces the delay by \(\sim (18-40)\)% than the conventional sensor-cloud framework for mission-critical applications. An optimal path finding algorithm based on deep learning has been deployed in the context of disaster scenario. The experimental analysis shows that the proposed optimal path finding method achieves precision and accuracy above 90%. This is observed that our proposed modules have outperformed existing baselines in terms of accuracy, delay, and power consumption.
