En este trabajo presentamos un sistema de gestión de citas diseñado por el Dpto. de Ingeniería Telemática de la Universidad de Sevilla para satisfacer las necesidades de profesores y alumnos. Este servicio puede ser utilizado para concertar tutorías, seguimientos de proyectos o revisiones de exámenes. Durante un año de operación del...

Drones equipped with wireless network cards can provide communication services in open areas. This paper proposes a hierarchical two-layered network architecture with two types of drones according to their communication equipment: Access and Distribution. While access drones provide WiFi access to ground users, distribution drones act as...

Es imposible suprimir el riesgo en un examen telemático, como también lo es en un examen presencial. De forma natural, lo exámenes telemáticos abren un mayor número de oportunidades a quién desea sortear las normas establecidas. Todos los actores deben ser conscientes de estos riesgos. Los profesores se enfrentan al desafío de implementar...

Voice over IP (VoIP) requires a Call Admission Control (CAC) mechanism in WiFi networks to preserve VoIP packet flows from excessive network delay or packet loss. Ideally, this mechanism should be integrated with the operational scenario, guarantee the quality of service of active calls, and maximize the number of concurrent calls. This paper...

The current IEEE 802.11ax standard enhances Wi-Fi networks with a series of new features, such as multi-user (MU) transmission, an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) scheme and the ability to multiplex traffic from different access categories (ACs). These features can be utilized to enhance the QoS support for VoIP traffic...

When telecommunication infrastructure is damaged by natural disasters, creating a network that can handle voice channels can be vital for search and rescue missions. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) equipped with WiFi access points could be rapidly deployed to provide wireless coverage to ground users. This WiFi access network can in turn be used...

We propose a novel cross-layer scheme to reduce energy consumption in wireless sensor networks composed of IEEE 802.15.4 IoT devices with adjustable transmit power. Our approach is based on the IETF's Routing Protocol for Low power and lossy networks (RPL). Nodes discover neighbors and keep fresh link statistics for each available transmit...

This paper formulates a new problem for the optimal placement of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) geared towards wireless coverage provision for Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) service to a set of ground users confined in an open area. Our objective function is constrained by coverage and by VoIP speech quality and minimizes the ratio between the...

Most anomaly-based intrusion detectors rely on models that learn from a training dataset whose quality is crucial in their performance. Albeit the properties of suitable datasets have been formulated, the influence of the dataset size on the performance of the anomaly-based detector has received scarce attention so far. In this work, we...

The unavailability of information and communication services due to network-related incidents may have a significant impact on large organizations. Network incidents can hence be viewed as a risk for organizations whose consequences are not accounted for by traditional network design problems. In this work, we address the problem of designing a...
