The Sixth Generation network (6G) can support autonomous driving along with various vehicular applications like Vehicular Edge Computing (VEC), a distributed computing architecture for connected autonomous vehicles. Computational offloading and resource management of Vehicular Edge Computing can help sort out some issues, such as high communication costs, privacy protection, an excessively long training process, etc., by proposing an efficient training model of the Federated Learning for computational offloading and resource management in a vehicular environment. Two research issues are highlighted in this paper. One problem is related to the current offloading system: the smart structure and operating system. Consistent access to cloud computing services, regardless of the installed operating system or used hardware, is still challenging. Another issue is related to security and privacy. Security and privacy are two important features that should be maintained in cloud data centers and data transmission during offloading and resource management. In this survey paper, a system is going to be proposed which will give a partial solution for these issues. The proposed solution, which is found while conducting this review, offers a system that can train a model and help update the edge devices’ information. The entire edge cloud system can provide updated information for edge devices and can solve the difficulties of getting some key information necessary for model-related optimization. This also can enhance the effectiveness of the frameworks of the 6G-V2X network for communication.

The Industrial Internet of things (IIoT) helps several applications that require power control and low cost to achieve long life. The progress of IIoT communications, mainly based on cognitive radio (CR), has been guided to the robust network connectivity. The low power communication is achieved for IIoT sensors applying the Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) with the Sigfox, NBIoT, and LoRaWAN technologies. This paper aims to review the various technologies and protocols for industrial IoT applications. A depth of assessment has been achieved by comparing various technologies considering the key terms such as frequency, data rate, power, coverage, mobility, costing, and QoS. This paper provides an assessment of 64 articles published on electricity control problems of IIoT between 2007 and 2020. That prepares a qualitative technique of answering the research questions (RQ): RQ1: “How cognitive radio engage with the industrial IoT?”, RQ2: “What are the Proposed architectures that Support Cognitive Radio LPWAN based IIOT?”, and RQ3: What key success factors need to comply for reliable CIIoT support in the industry?”. With the systematic literature assessment approach, the effects displayed on the cognitive radio in LPWAN can significantly revolute the commercial IIoT. Thus, researchers are more focused in this regard. The study suggests that the essential factors of design need to be considered to conquer the critical research gaps of the existing LPWAN cognitive-enabled IIoT. A cognitive low energy architecture is brought to ensure efficient and stable communications in a heterogeneous IIoT. It will protect the network layer from offering the customers an efficient platform to rent AI, and various LPWAN technology were explored and investigated.

Ensuring the security of critical Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems is of utmost importance, with a primary focus on identifying cyber-attacks using Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). Deep learning (DL) techniques are frequently utilized in the anomaly detection components of IDSs. However, these models often generate high false-positive rates, and their decision-making rationale remains opaque, even to experts. Gaining insights into the reasons behind an IDS’s decision to block a specific packet can aid cybersecurity professionals in assessing the system’s effectiveness and creating more cyber-resilient solutions. In this paper, we offer an explainable ensemble DL-based IDS to improve the transparency and robustness of DL-based IDSs in IIoT networks. The framework incorporates Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and Local comprehensible-independent Clarifications (LIME) methods to elucidate the decisions made by DL-based IDSs, providing valuable insights to experts responsible for maintaining IIoT network security and developing more cyber-resilient systems. The ToN_IoT dataset was used to evaluate the efficacy of the suggested framework. As a baseline intrusion detection system, the extreme learning machines (ELM) model was implemented and compared with other models. Experiments show the effectiveness of ensemble learning to improve the results.

As the world keeps advancing, the need for automated interconnected devices has started to gain significance; to cater to the condition, a new concept Internet of Things (IoT) has been introduced that revolves around smart devicesʼ conception. These smart devices using IoT can communicate with each other through a network to attain particular objectives, i.e., automation and intelligent decision making. IoT has enabled the users to divide their household burden with machines as these complex machines look after the environment variables and control their behavior accordingly. As evident, these machines use sensors to collect vital information, which is then the complexity analyzed at a computational node that then smartly controls these devicesʼ operational behaviors. Deep learning‐based guessing attack protection algorithms have been enhancing IoT security; however, it still has a critical challenge for the complex industries’ IoT networks. One of the crucial aspects of such systems is the need to have a significant training time for processing a large dataset from the networkʼs previous flow of data. Traditional deep learning approaches include decision trees, logistic regression, and support vector machines. However, it is essential to note that this convenience comes with a price that involves security vulnerabilities as IoT networks are prone to be interfered with by hackers who can access the sensor/communication data and later utilize it for malicious purposes. This paper presents the experimental study of cryptographic algorithms to classify the types of encryption algorithms into the asymmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithm. It presents a deep analysis of AES, DES, 3DES, RSA, and Blowfish based on timing complexity, size, encryption, and decryption performances. It has been assessed in terms of the guessing attack in real‐time deep learning complex IoT applications. The assessment has been done using the simulation approach and it has been tested the speed of encryption and decryption of the selected encryption algorithms. For each encryption and decryption, the tests executed the same encryption using the same plaintext for five separate times, and the average time is compared. The key size used for each encryption algorithm is the maximum bytes the cipher can allow. To the comparison, the average time required to compute the algorithm by the three devices is used. For the experimental test, a set of plaintexts is used in the simulation—password‐sized text and paragraph‐sized text—that achieves target fair results compared to the existing algorithms in real‐time deep learning networks for IoT applications.

In contemporary society, the proliferation of online hateful messages has emerged as a pressing concern, inflicting deleterious consequences on both societal fabric and individual well-being. The automatic detection of such malevolent content online using models designed to recognize it, holds promise in mitigating its harmful impact. However, the advent of "Hateful Memes" poses fresh challenges to the detection paradigm, particularly within the realm of deep learning models. These memes, constituting of a textual element associated with an image are individually innocuous but their combination causes a detrimental effect. Consequently, entities responsible for disseminating information via web browsers are compelled to institute mechanisms that regulate and automatically filter out such injurious content. Effectively identifying hateful memes demands algorithms and models endowed with robust vision and language fusion capabilities, capable of reasoning across diverse modalities. This research introduces a novel approach by leveraging the multimodal Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training (CLIP) model, fine-tuned through the incorporation of prompt engineering. This innovative methodology achieves a commendable accuracy of 87.42%. Comprehensive metrics such as loss, AUROC, and f1 score are also meticulously computed, corroborating the efficacy of the proposed strategy. Our findings suggest that this approach presents an efficient means to regulate the dissemination of hate speech in the form of viral meme content across social networking platforms, thereby contributing to a safer online environment.
