Evaluating UI/UX Design and Applicant Behaviour in Jahangirnagar University\u27s Undergraduate Admission Process
A user-friendly interface plays a critical role in information systems, as it directly influences users’ ability to perform tasks accurately and efficiently. In the context of digital university admissions, effective UI/UX design and evaluation are essential for ensuring accessibility, usability, and student autonomy. This study investigates the Jahangirnagar University undergraduate admission portal to understand why a significant proportion (65.3%) of digitally literate students rely on third-party assistance to complete applications, despite the system achieving a positive mean usability satisfaction score of 4.31/5. The primary reason identified was student apprehension about making mistakes. Utilising a multi-method approach—Likert-scale surveys, heuristic evaluations, and Jaccard similarity analysis—we assessed interface quality and user behaviour across a dataset of 308,606 applications. Analysis of 10,120 reported issues revealed the most frequent problems: payment failures (32.34%), image/signature upload difficulties (13.25%), and language selection challenges (14.74%). These findings highlight critical friction points undermining user confidence and independence. Our goal is to contribute to the improvement of the user interface design methodology of a student-friendly platform so that any student can complete the application process without anyone’s assistance
Optimized DenseNet Architecture for Efficient Classification of Encrypted Internet Traffic
The increasing reliance on Internet-based services has rendered secure and efficient network traffic classification critical. Conventional methods for categorising traffic, such as port and payload methods, often struggle with the challenges posed by encrypted traffic. Deep learning techniques have emerged as a predominant method for traffic classification given their success in domains such as image recognition, document analysis, and genomics. This research proposes an enhanced DenseNet architecture that leverages deep learning to accurately classify encrypted Internet traffic categories. This approach introduces a compression layer into the DenseNet architecture to address the co-adaptation problem as a result of the information flow and optimise the accuracy of the CNN. An Intrusion detection dataset from the Canadian Institute of Cybersecurity was used to evaluate the architecture. The optimised DenseNet architecture was evaluated using metrics such as precision, recall, accuracy, F1-Score, False Positive Rate and Area under the ROC Curve. Experimental results show that the approach can distinguish various encrypted Internet traffic categories
Enhancing Network Performance: A Comprehensive Analysis of Hybrid Routing Algorithms
Recent years have seen the proposal of numerous routing algorithms for potential use in a variety of application areas. In many network types, such as Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), and other dynamic contexts, routing is a crucial difficulty. By fusing the benefits of proactive (table-driven) and reactive (on-demand) routing techniques, hybrid routing algorithms have become a notable breakthrough.
Researchers have focused on hybrid routing algorithms since traditional ones frequently fail to adjust to the changing network conditions present in MANETs. These novel methods strive to maximize speed while reducing overhead by combining the best features of proactive and reactive routing strategies. It provided a thorough analysis of these algorithms in this work, emphasizing their mechanisms, benefits, limitations, and security features. Also focused especially on the analysis of hybrid routing algorithms in a range of applications

The Synergistic Role of Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Reinforcement Learning in Strengthening Cyber Security Measures for Crypto Currency Platforms
This study explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven cybersecurity models in mitigating fraud, smart contract vulnerabilities, and regulatory challenges in cryptocurrency platforms. Utilizing datasets such as the Elliptic Bitcoin Dataset, SolidiFI-Benchmark, CryptoScamDB, and CipherTrace AML Reports, this research employs Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Reinforcement Learning (RL) for fraud detection and anomaly identification. The AI-based security model demonstrates a 5.2% increase in fraud detection accuracy over traditional rule-based methods while reducing false positives by 19.3%. However, the model exhibits a false negative rate of 98.9%, indicating challenges in fully capturing sophisticated fraud techniques. Regression analysis shows a strong inverse correlation (R² = 0.927) between AI adoption and fraud cases, where each 1% increase in AI adoption corresponds to a reduction of approximately 37 fraud cases.In real-world applicability, the proposed AI-driven models enhance scalability and real-time threat detection but require substantial computational resources, particularly for deep learning and RL-based techniques. Computational efficiency is optimized through federated learning and quantum-resistant AI security, ensuring robust yet privacy-preserving fraud detection. Despite its advantages, challenges such as adversarial AI attacks, regulatory inconsistencies, and scalability under high transaction loads persist.The study recommends self-supervised learning for fraud detection, improving interpretability in deep learning models, and developing AI-driven compliance frameworks to address ethical concerns. By integrating Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning (DL), and Reinforcement Learning (RL), this study provides a novel approach to securing cryptocurrency transactions, offering actionable insights for researchers, financial institutions, and policymakers
