Secure design for cloud control system against distributed denial of service attack

Nowadays, the development of cloud computing has given power to the resource constrained network control system (NCS) to out source heavy computations to the cloud server. However, the development of Cloud Computing produced many security challenges regarding the cyber physical connection between the cloud and control system. The connection between the control system and cloud server can be subjected to distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack by an attacker to destabilize the NCS. In this paper, we will address this issue by building a secure mechanism for such systems. We will design a detection approach and a mitigation approach for better stable performance of NCS. To ensure the stability of NCS at the time of DDoS attack, we will also design a switching mechanism (SM) for cloud control system (CCS) when there are no more real time solutions available from the cloud. Finally, we will apply the proposed mechanism to an unmanned arial vehicle (UAV). Our simulation results show that the mechanism works well in stability and protection of NCS under DDoS attack.     

Visualization of Understanding of Media Characteristics Using Analytic Hierarchy Process

The purpose of this study is to design a tool, adapted to students＇ individual contexts and to enable students to reflect on their understanding of media characteristics. AHP （analytic hierarchy process） is a structured technique for organizing and analyzing complex decisions. Using AHP, students have to define appropriate criteria and priorities for using media. It is expected that students＂ understanding of the characteristics of different types of media will emerge through reflection. Seventy two university students took part in this research. They were asked to prioritize their ways.of obtaining information about current affairs using sets of media such as TV, books, newspapers and web pages, Twitter and Facebook. AHP enables us to visualize a ＂real＂ understanding of media characteristics and students can reflect on that basis. As far as ＂information sources and media＂ is concerned, a few students indicated that it was the information source itself that was important rather than the type of media. Our tool fulfils the role of encouraging this type of reflection.

Energy saving in wireless sensor networks

With the development of low-cost processor, memory, and radio technologies, it becomes possible to build inexpensive wireless micro-sensor nodes. However, energy is the biggest constraint to wireless sensor capabilities and such constraint combined with a typical deployment of large numbers of sensor nodes have posed many challenges to the design and management of sensor networks. Due to their ad-hoc deployment in hazardous environment, once sensor nodes are deployed in a sensor network, they cannot be easily replaced or recharged. Thus, energy saving acts as one of the hottest topics in wireless sensor networks （WSNs） and hence several energy conservation schemes have been proposed in the literature. In this work, we will make a short survey on the main techniques used for energy conservation in sensor networks. Specifically, we will focus primarily on duty cycling schemes which represent the most suitable technique for energy saving. Moreover, we will also survey in-network processing and network coding techniques which can guarantee a significant amount of energy saving in packet transmission. Finally, we will make a review on some communication protocols proposed for sensor networks.     

Sailboat navigation control system based on spiking neural networks

In this paper, we presented the development of a navigation control system for a sailboat based on spiking neural networks (SNN). Our inspiration for this choice of network lies in their potential to achieve fast and low-energy computing on specialized hardware. To train our system, we use the modulated spike time-dependent plasticity reinforcement learning rule and a simulation environment based on the BindsNET library and USVSim simulator. Our objective was to develop a spiking neural network-based control systems that can learn policies allowing sailboats to navigate between two points by following a straight line or performing tacking and gybing strategies, depending on the sailing scenario conditions. We presented the mathematical definition of the problem, the operation scheme of the simulation environment, the spiking neural network controllers, and the control strategy used. As a result, we obtained 425 SNN-based controllers that completed the proposed navigation task, indicating that the simulation environment and the implemented control strategy work effectively. Finally, we compare the behavior of our best controller with other algorithms and present some possible strategies to improve its performance.     

A site-based proxy cache

In traditional proxy caches,any visited page from any Web server is cached independently,ignoring connections between pages,And users still have to frequently visity in dexing pages just for reaching useful informative ones,which causes significant waste of caching space and unnecessary Web traffic.In order to solve the above problem,this paper introduced a site graph model to describe WWW and a site-based replacement strategy has been built based on it .The concept of “access frequency“ is developed for evaluating whether a Web page is worth being kept in caching space.On the basis of user‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘s access history,auxiliary navigation information is provided to help him reach target pages more quickly.Performance test results haves shown that the proposed proxy cache system can get higher hit ratio than traditional ones and can reduce user‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘s access latency effectively.

Recovery Strategies for Streaming Media Service in a Cluster-Based VOD Server with a Fault Node

Due to the economic cost and good scalability, cluster-based server architecture is used for VOD services. This server consists of a front-end node and multiple backend nodes. In this server architecture, backend nodes are added simply to support large-scale on-demand clients. However, as the number of backend nodes increases, the possibility of backend node failure also increases. A backend node fault not only degrades the quality of serviced streaming media but also decreases the number of streams supported in the VOD server. For successful VOD service, even if a backend node enters a fault state, the streaming service in progress should be re-continued after a short recovery time. As the recovery strategy, when legacy RAID methods are applied to cluster-based VOD servers, the excessive internal network traffic between the backend nodes causes performance degradation. In addition, the backend nodes demonstrate inefficient CPU utilization for the recovery process. In this paper, to address these problems, a new fault recovery strategy is proposed based on the pipeline computing concept. The proposed method not only distributes the network traffic generated from the recovery operations but also makes efficient use of the CPU time available in the backend nodes. Based on these advantages, even if the cluster-based server has a backend node that fails, the proposed method provides more QoS streams compared to the existing recovery method. In addition, since the proposed method needs a very short recovery time, the streaming services in progress are sustained without degradation of media quality.
