abstract = {The technological leap of smart technologies and the Internet of Things has advanced the conventional model of the electrical power and energy systems into a new digital era, widely known as the Smart Grid. The advent of Smart Grids provides multiple benefits, such as self-monitoring, self-healing and pervasive control. However, it also raises crucial cybersecurity and privacy concerns that can lead to devastating consequences, including cascading effects with other critical infrastructures or even fatal accidents. This paper introduces a novel architecture, which will increase the Smart Grid resiliency, taking full advantage of the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technology. The proposed architecture called SDN-microSENSE architecture consists of three main tiers: (a) Risk assessment, (b) intrusion detection and correlation and (c) self-healing. The first tier is responsible for evaluating dynamically the risk level of each Smart Grid asset. The second tier undertakes to detect and correlate security events and, finally, the last tier mitigates the potential threats, ensuring in parallel the normal operation of the Smart Grid. It is noteworthy that all tiers of the SDN-microSENSE architecture interact with the SDN controller either for detecting or mitigating intrusions.},

abstract = {Dynamic dual-hop relaying network topologies that enable access to end-users through intermediate individual and commercial, static as well as moving, infrastructures are expected to become fundamental pillars of the sixth-generation wireless systems. Their main requirement is to ensure end-users information privacy. Motivated by this, the current contribution focuses on introducing a dual-hop blockchain radio access network (DH-BRAN) topology for dynamic coverage expansion. To analyze the performance of this topology, we present the theoretical framework that captures its characteristics. Building upon it, the DH-BRAN performance, in terms of latency and waiting probability, is quantified. Our results reveal that DR-BRAN can be employed in several realistic use-cases and that there exists a trade-off between latency and security.},
