Read the interesting abstract to learn more!Abstract:
The advancements in telecommunications are significantly benefiting the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) in various ways. Minimal latency, faster data transfer, and reduced costs are transforming the landscape of IoV. While these advantages accompany the latest improvements, they also expand cyberspace, leading to security and privacy concerns. Vehicles rely on trusted authorities for registration and authentication processes, resulting in bottleneck issues and communication delays. Moreover, the central trusted authority and intermediate nodes raise doubts regarding transparency, traceability, and anonymity. This paper proposes a novel vehicle authentication handover framework leveraging blockchain, IPFS, and hybrid computing. The framework uses a Proof of Reputation (PoR) consensus mechanism to improve transparency and traceability and the Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) cryptosystem to reduce computational delays. The suggested system assures data availability, secrecy, and integrity while maintaining minimal latency throughout the vehicle re-authentication process. Performance evaluations show the system’s scalability, with creating keys, encoding, decoding, and registration operations done rapidly. Simulation is performed using SUMO to handle vehicle mobility in IoV environment. The findings demonstrate the practicality of the proposed framework in vehicular networks, providing a reliable and trustworthy approach for IoV communication
Practical Implementation / Social Implications:
The practical application of this research can significantly improve the safety and reliability of autonomous vehicles and connected vehicle networks. By securing the handover process, it reduces the risk of hacking, data breaches, and unauthorized access, making connected vehicle systems safer for the public and contributing to the development of smart transportation infrastructures.
Future Research Plans:
Moving forward, we plan to focus on optimizing blockchain solutions for large-scale IoT and smart city applications, with a particular interest in improving consensus mechanisms and security protocols for real-time operations, such as autonomous driving and smart energy grids.

The academic community and students alike look forward to Mr Raju’s further contributions as he continues to lead impactful research initiatives at SRM University-AP.Abstract of the Research
The evolution of 5G (Fifth Generation) and B5G (Beyond 5G) wireless networks and edge IoT (Internet of Things) devices generates an enormous volume of data. The growth of mobile applications, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, network gaming, and self-driving cars, has increased demand for computation-intensive and latency-critical applications. However, these applications require high computation power and low communication latency, which hinders the large-scale adoption of these technologies in IoT devices due to their inherent low computation and low energy capabilities.
MEC (mobile edge computing) is a prominent solution that improves the quality of service by offloading the services near the users. Besides, in emergencies where network failure exists due to natural calamities, UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) can be positioned to reinstate the networking ability by serving as flying base stations and edge servers for mobile edge networks. This article explores computation service caching in a multi-unmanned aerial vehicle-assisted MEC system. The limited resources at the UAV node induce added problems of assigning the existing restricted edge resources to satisfy the user requests and the associate of users to utilise the finite resources effectively. To address the above-mentioned problems, we formulate the service caching and user association problem by placing the diversified latency-critical services to maximise the time utility with the deadline and resource constraints.
The problem is formulated as an integer linear programming (ILP) problem for service placement in mobile edge networks. An approximation algorithm based on the rounding technique is designed to solve the formulated ILP problem. Moreover, a genetic algorithm is designed to address the larger instance of the problem. Simulation results indicate that the proposed service placement schemes considerably enhance the cache hit ratio, load on the cloud and time utility performance compared with existing mechanisms.
Explanation of the Research in Layperson’s Terms
The rapid growth of 5G (Fifth Generation) and B5G (Beyond 5G) wireless networks, along with edge IoT (Internet of Things) devices, is creating a massive amount of data. As mobile applications like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), online gaming, and self-driving cars become more popular, there’s a greater need for fast, powerful computing. However, IoT devices typically have limited computing power and energy, making it hard to run these advanced applications. Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) offers a solution to this problem by offloading tasks to servers located closer to users, reducing delays and improving performance.
In cases of emergency where network failure occurs due to natural disasters, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can be used to restore connectivity. UAVs can act as flying base stations and edge servers, helping mobile edge networks continue functioning. This research focuses on improving how computation services are cached and handled in a system that uses multiple UAVs to assist MEC. Since UAVs have limited resources, there’s a challenge in efficiently assigning these resources to meet user demands. The research proposes a solution by formulating this problem as an integer linear programming (ILP) problem, aiming to place services in a way that maximises performance while considering deadlines and resource limits. To solve this complex issue, we use two approaches. First, they apply an approximation algorithm based on a rounding technique to solve the ILP problem. Then, for larger problems, they use a genetic algorithm. Their simulation results show that these service placement strategies significantly improve metrics like cache hit ratio, load reduction on the cloud, and time utility, compared to existing methods.
Practical Implementation and the Social Implications Associated
The practical implementation of this research lies in enhancing the efficiency of real-time, computation-intensive applications like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), autonomous driving, and network gaming in mobile edge computing (MEC) environments, particularly in scenarios involving Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). By optimizing how services are cached and distributed in a multi-UAV-assisted MEC system, the research enables faster data processing and lower latency, which is crucial for applications where even slight delays can cause major issues, such as in self-driving cars or real-time remote surgeries. In emergency situations, such as natural disasters, where ground-based networks may be damaged or overloaded, the deployment of UAVs as flying base stations and edge servers could restore network connectivity quickly and provide essential services. This research ensures that even under such constraints, services are efficiently distributed, enhancing responsiveness and reliability.
Social Implications:
Disaster Relief: UAVs with MEC support could be deployed during natural calamities to restore communication services, helping rescue teams coordinate better and saving lives.
Smart Cities and Autonomous Vehicles: The work contributes to making smart cities more responsive, with real-time data processing and seamless service delivery. Autonomous vehicles, for instance, would benefit from reduced latency, leading to safer and more efficient navigation.
Healthcare: Applications such as telemedicine and remote surgery could operate more effectively with lower latency, improving healthcare delivery in remote or disaster-affected regions.Collaborations

In future, we plan to consider the unique challenge of making caching decisions while accounting for the limited energy capacity of UAVs, mobility of UAVs, network resources, and service dependencies, which introduces new complexities in algorithm design minimising the overall service delay while adhering to constraints such as energy consumption, UAV mobility, and network resources. This would require the joint optimisation of service caching placement, UAV trajectory, UE-UAV association, and task offloading.

Explanation of the Research in Layperson’s Terms
The background information herein below relates to the present disclosure but is not necessarily prior art. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurological or developmental disorder that profoundly impacts communication skills, social interaction, and cognitive abilities in individuals. Those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) often exhibit challenges in social interaction, limited eye contact, difficulty understanding social cues, and impaired language skills. Additionally, repetitive behaviours and sensory sensitivities are common characteristics.
The disorder arises from developmental changes in brain structure and can have various causes, including genetic factors, familial history of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), advanced parental age, or low birth weight. The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO), stands at one in every 160 children. Early detection and intervention are crucial for managing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) effectively, as interventions such as medical and neurological examinations, cognitive and language assessments, and frequent observations, including blood and hearing tests, can significantly improve outcomes. Detecting Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in children below the age of 10 is comparatively easier than in adults, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis to facilitate timely interventions.
Current diagnostic processes for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often present significant challenges, particularly for young children, due to their limited ability to communicate and cooperate during assessments. Traditional diagnostic methods rely heavily on structured interviews, behavioural observations, and standardised tests, which can be daunting and stressful for children, leading to inaccurate results. Moreover, these procedures are time-consuming and often require multiple visits to specialised clinics or healthcare facilities, causing inconvenience and financial strain for families. Also, the cost associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis can be prohibitive for many families.
Therefore, there is a pressing need for more accessible, less intrusive, and cost-effective methods for detecting autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in its early stages to ensure timely and effective intervention. Therefore, there is a need for a system for autism spectrum disorder detection that alleviates the drawbacks.
Practical and Social Implications Associated with the Research
Current diagnostic procedures for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) face considerable technical challenges, particularly concerning young children’s limited ability to engage in conventional assessment methods. These methods typically rely on structured interviews, behavioural observations, and standardised tests, all of which can be arduous and distressing for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), potentially leading to unreliable outcomes. Furthermore, these procedures are resource-intensive, requiring multiple visits to specialised clinics or healthcare facilities, thereby causing logistical challenges and financial burdens for families.

- Breakthrough in Mathematical Research: Dr Subha Sandeep Repaka’s Innovative Study on Unitary Groups October 10, 2024
The Department of Mathematics, SRM University-AP, is pleased to announce that Assistant Professor Dr Subha Sandeep Repaka has published a significant research paper titled “On Reducibility of Induced Representations of Odd Unitary Groups: The Depth Zero Case.” This accomplishment reflects Dr Repaka’s expertise and dedication to advancing mathematical research, further enriching the academic contributions of the department and the university.
Abstract:
We study a problem concerning parabolic induction in certain $p$-adic unitary groups. More precisely, for $E/F$ a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields the associated unitary group $G=\mathrm{U}(n,n+1)$ contains a parabolic subgroup $P$ with Levi component $L$ isomorphic to $\mathrm{GL}_n(E) \times \mathrm{U}_1(E)$. Let $\pi$ be an irreducible supercuspidal representation of $L$ of depth zero. We use Hecke algebra methods to determine when the parabolically induced representation $\iota_P^G \pi$ is reducible.
Future Research Plans:
We would like to solve the same problem which I had solved in this paper for the groups U(n,n) and U(n,n+1) over p-adic fields using L-Functions which is a very novel approach.
