Monitoring approach for online security of cryptographic protocol by Yu-na ZHU, Ji-hong HAN, Lin YUAN, Yu-dan FAN, Han-tuo CHEN, Wen GU

“…Previous methods can not detect the low-interaction attacks of protocol logic.A cryptographic protocol online monitoring approach named CPOMA was presented.An ontology framework of cryptographic protocol features was constructed for the unified description of cryptographic protocol features with different types.Based on the framework,a feature weighting method was proposed by fuzzy subspace clustering first,and the individualized feature database of cryptographic protocols was built.On this basis,a self-learning method was presented for protocol identification and session rebuilding,and then abnormal protocol sessions were detected online.Experimental results show that CPOMA can identify protocols,rebuild sessions,detect abnormal sessions efficiently,and can improve the online security of cryptographic protocols.…”

RSU deployment planning based on approximation algorithm in urban VANET by Junyu ZHU, Chuanhe HUANG, Xiying FAN, Kuangyu QIN, Bin FU

“…To minimize the number of RSU deployed to cover a specific area,a c street model transforming the area covering problem to streets covering problem was designed,and a greedy-based polynomial (GBP) time approximation algorithm was developed to obtain the optimal RSU deployment for area coverage.For complex urban environments,a Cue model (complex urban environments model) was proposed.In this model,the target area was divided into different partitions.Then,based on shifting strategy,a polynomial time approximation scheme was designed.Theoretical analysis that include the approximation ratio and time complexity of the proposed algorithm were also presented.Simulation results show that GBP can efficiently solve the coverage problem in urban VANET.…”

Tropical and Subtropical Fruit Propagation by Jeff Wasielewski, Carlos F. Balerdi

“… Propagation is an important technique used by tropical and subtropical fruit growers worldwide, allowing plants to be grown cheaply and efficiently. While sexual propagation (by seed) results in plants that are not genetically the same as the mother plant, asexual propagation (cuttings, division, air-layers, and grafting) creates offspring that are clones of the mother plant. …”

Analysis and status of the scattering channel model for ultraviolet communications by Renzhi YUAN, Zhifeng WANG, Mugen PENG

“…Due to its unique features such as high local security, low background noise, and non-light-of-sight communication, the ultraviolet communication, which uses the light wave of “solar blind” wavelength (200～280 nm) as the information carrier, becomes a promising optical communication technique for applications in both secure communications and internet of vehicles and so on.The scattering channel models were classified into analytical channel models and stochastic channel models according to their different computational efficiencies.The research of the first three scattering orders in analytical channel models and the Monte-Carlo simulation model and Monte-Carlo integration model in stochastic channel models were mainly focused on.Some future research directions for the scattering channel model of ultraviolet communications were also provided.…”
