Effective Evaluation Methods for Fractured Tight Sandstone Reservoirs in Kuqa Depression by LIU Shiwei, BIE Kang, WANG Dongdong, NI Xiaowei, LIU Min, XU Sihui, FENG Jiaming

“…By analyzing the factors affecting the quality of fractured tight sandstone reservoirs from the perspectives of porosity, fracture parameters, and stress, a systematic analysis and summary of the influencing factors is carried out. Selecting parameters such as porosity, fracture porosity, fracture width, and the angle between the maximum horizontal principal stress and the fracture strike direction, the sandstone reservoir quality is depicted using test data, and the reservoir quality is differentiated by adjusting the main control factor correlation coefficient. …”

A lightweight verifiable outsourced decryption of attribute-based encryption scheme for blockchain-enabled wireless body area network in fog computing by Rui Guo, Chaoyuan Zhuang, Huixian Shi, Yinghui Zhang, Dong Zheng

“…The proposal provides the verifiability of ciphertext that ensures the user to check the correctness efficiently. (2) The size of the ciphertext is constant that is not increased with the complexity of attribute and access structure. (3) For Internet of Things devices, it introduces the fog computing into our protocol for the purpose of low latency and relation interactions, which has virtually saved the bandwidth. (4) With the help of blockchain technique, we encapsulate the hash value of public parameter, original and transformed ciphertext and transformed key into a block, so that the tamper-resistance is facilitated against an adversary from inside and outside the system. (5) In the standard model, we prove that it is selectively chosen-plaintext attack-secure and verifiable provided that the computational bilinear Diffie–Hellman assumption holds. (6) It implements this protocol and shows the result of performance measurement, which indicates a significant reduction on communication and computation costs burden on every entity in wireless body area network.…”
