    BBSF: Blockchain-Based Secure Weather Forecasting Information through Routing Protocol in Vanet
    (MDPI, 2023-06-01)
    Hamza Sohail
    A vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a technique that uses vehicles with the ability to sense data from the environment and use it for their safety measures. Flooding is a commonly used term used for sending network packets. VANET may cause redundancy, delay, collision, and the incorrect receipt of the messages to their destination. Weather information is one of the most important types of information used for network control and provides an enhanced version of the network simulation environments. The network traffic delay and packet losses are the main problems identified inside the network. In this research, we propose a routing protocol which can transmit the weather forecasting information on demand based on source vehicle to destination vehicles, with the minimum number of hop counts, and provide significant control over network performance parameters. We propose a BBSF-based routing approach. The proposed technique effectively enhances the routing information and provides the secure and reliable service delivery of the network performance. The results taken from the network are based on hop count, network latency, network overhead, and packet delivery ratio. The results effectively show that the proposed technique is reliable in reducing the network latency, and that the hop count is minimized when transferring the weather information.

    High-dimensional GHZ-based multi-party quantum key agreement: rigorous security, fairness, and loss tolerance
    (Springer Nature (SpringerOpen), 2026-04-23)
    Hamza Sohail
    This paper presents an efficient approach for quantum state estimation based on low-rank matrix completion. The proposed method reconstructs pure quantum states using a significantly reduced number of measurement settings while avoiding the need for experimentally challenging entangling measurements. By relying only on local measurements, the method lowers computational and experimental complexity and improves the practicality of quantum state tomography on current quantum devices. Numerical evaluations demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves high reconstruction accuracy and outperforms several existing approaches when estimating multi-qubit quantum states. The method provides an effective and scalable solution for characterizing quantum systems and can serve as a valuable tool for benchmarking and validating the performance of present and future quantum computing platforms.
