RLWE同态加密算法的多候选人电子投票协议

使用安全协议保护选民隐私、保证投票公正有效是投票电子信息化的基础,安全协议的复杂度则是电子投票应用的最大阻碍。提出了一种基于RLWE同态加密算法的多候选人电子投票协议,可支持多候选人,也能满足对选民隐私的保护。该协议利用基于RLWE的同态加密算法的加法同态性质在计票环节使用密文计票保护选民的私密,利用中国剩余定理的性质对选票进行批处理,提升计票能力。该投票协议能支持多候选人投票并最终知晓每个候选人最终票数,并设置公示机构公示投票过程中的每个步骤,用于公开验证。     

基于多方排序协议的安全电子投票方案

与传统投票相比较, 电子投票拥有许多优势, 也存在重要的安全问题. 电子投票的全隐私性是评估投票方案安全的重要指标, 它是指对投票者的隐私保护和候选者的隐私保护, 特别是落选者的得票数的保护. 利用可验证秘密共享的思想提出了一个安全多方排序协议, 并将它运用到电子投票中, 设计了一个新的安全的电子投票协议, 本协议具有全隐私性.     

自计票电子投票方案的分析与改进

Kiayias和Yung首次提出了自计票电子投票方案,使得小规模电子选举不需要任何可信第三方参与,选举的行为公开可验证,有力地保证了选举的秘密性,Groth在此基础上做了改进,使得方案更简洁、高效;然而Groth方案仍只用于双候选人选举,且不允许两个选民同时投票.简要介绍并分析了Groth方案,针对上述两点不足给出改进建议,使新方案更高效且用于多候选人选举.     

基于同态加密策略的电子选举系统

针对电子选举系统的安全性问题,提出了一种基于同态加密策略保护选民隐私的高安全性的电子选举系统设计方案。该系统采用同态加密策略进行选民的投票结果运算,采用非对称密码算法保证数据信息传输过程中的数据安全,保护选民的身份和意愿不被暴露。     

基于安全多方求和的多候选人电子选举方案

多候选人电子选举方案在许多实际环境下具有重要的应用价值,但现有绝大多数方案由于技术限制只能进行“两选一”投票.设计了一种新型的选票结构,在一个多精度数中隐藏“m选k”形式的选票,对m个候选人至多可以投k个赞成票;将多精度计算及安全多方求和协议应用于投票和计票,选举过程中不需要可信任第3方,任何投票人都可以计票.与一般方案相比,该方案具有更强的安全性,包括选票的完全保密性和无收据性、计票的公平性和无争议性、系统的健壮性等;无需使用传统的加密技术.对n个投票人,计算的位复杂性为O(nm(log_2 n)),其效率优于现有方案且容易实现.     

基于安全E-mail协议的电子选举研究

在安全邮件协议PGP中引入公正机构(CA),设计了一个适合大规模选举的电子选举方案。该方案不仅能满足电子选举的安全要求,而且不要求选民在固定地点投票;此外,新方案在一定程度上解决了电子选举中权威机构权力过大及绝对匿名性引发问题,可以在不泄露选票内容的情况下使选举的结果具有可验证性。     

一种安全的多候选人电子投票方案

随着电子通信的发展,电子投票以其独特的优势弥补了传统投票的不足。电子选举的发展不但体现在需要满足的性质上,其形式也在不断变化,例如从起初的多选一到后来的多选多。对仲红等提出的多候选人方案进行安全性分析,指出其方案并不满足完全保密性,并给出了基于随机数隐藏的多候选人电子投票方案,达到了完全保密性的目的。     

基于SEAL库的同态加权电子投票系统

电子投票比传统纸质投票更为灵活高效,能节省大量人力物力,在不同选举场合中的地位越来越重要.同态加密技术可以在电子投票过程中发挥重要作用,同态加密技术结合其他安全技术和手段来设计的电子投票系统,可以在计票过程中有效保护投票者的身份隐私,相比其他类型的电子投票系统也更为简洁高效.为了解决电子投票中的身份隐私保护和实现效率问题,本文提出了一种基于SEAL库的同态加权电子投票系统,通过同态操作实现密文计票,可有效抵抗来自计票中心内部的恶意攻击,保证选票保密性和计票结果正确性;通过在选票中引入投票权重,可以使电子投票系统实现加权投票;通过将选票信息密态存储在云端数据库,将计票中心部署在云端,可在保证安全的前提下借助云计算服务实现高效计票;系统中加密算法的安全性基于格上RLWE困难问题,可以抵抗量子计算攻击.对所设计投票系统的效率测试表明,完成对1000张选票的计票工作仅耗时1.867 s,相比Will等人在ICCCRI2015中提出的基于Paillier的电子投票系统计票耗时减少了32.73%,相比Wang等人在2017年提出的基于Helib的电子投票系统计票耗时减少了99.26%,相比Li在2017年提出的基于Helib的电子投票系统计票耗时减少了91.81%.本文提出的同态加权电子投票系统可以满足多个候选人投票和加权投票,能够适用于多种投票场景,且计票效率可以满足大规模投票的应用需求.

一个实用的电子评审方案

电子评审是一种特殊的电子选举，由于投票人很少。直接使用现有电子选举方案很难实现安全评审．本文将改进的矩阵传送安全多方求和协议与保密比较协议相结合，采用少数服从多数的选举规则，秘密比较计票结果是否大于一个预定门限值。不泄露计票值就能得出评审结果．该方案具有投票的隐私性、无收据性、计果的保密性和无争议性等性质。满足安全评审的需求；计算代价和通信代价均低于现有方案，容易设计实用的系统．     

Only connect: teaching, technology and telesis

Abstract This paper describes an approach to the design of interactive multimedia materials being developed in a European Community project. The developmental process is seen as a dialogue between technologists and teachers. This dialogue is often problematic because of the differences in training, experience and culture between them. Conditions needed for fruitful dialogue are described and the generic model for learning design used in the project is explained.     

European Community policy and the market

Abstract This paper starts with some reflections on the policy considerations and priorities which are shaping European Commission (EC) research programmes. Then it attempts to position the current projects which seek to capitalise on information and communications technologies for learning in relation to these priorities and the apparent realities of the marketplace. It concludes that while there are grounds to be optimistic about the contribution EC programmes can make to the efficiency and standard of education and training, they are still too technology driven.

Avoiding semantic and temporal gaps in developing software intensive systems

Development of software intensive systems (systems) in practice involves a series of self-contained phases for the lifecycle of a system. Semantic and temporal gaps, which occur among phases and among developer disciplines within and across phases, hinder the ongoing development of a system because of the interdependencies among phases and among disciplines. Such gaps are magnified among systems that are developed at different times by different development teams, which may limit reuse of artifacts of systems development and interoperability among the systems. This article discusses such gaps and a systems development process for avoiding them.     

Designing economic np control charts: A programmed simulation approach

This paper presents control charts models and the necessary simulation software for the location of economic values of the control parameters. The simulation program is written in FORTRAN, requires only 10K of main storage, and can run on most mini and micro computers. Two models are presented - one describes the process when it is operating at full capacity and the other when the process is operating under capacity. The models allow the product quality to deteriorate to a further level before an existing out-of-control state is detected, and they can also be used in situations where no prior knowledge exists of the out-of-control causes and the resulting proportion defectives.     

The development of robot art

Going through a few examples of robot artists who are recognized worldwide, we try to analyze the deepest meaning of what is called “robot art” and the related art field definition. We also try to highlight its well-marked borders, such as kinetic sculptures, kinetic art, cyber art, and cyberpunk. A brief excursion into the importance of the context, the message, and its semiotics is also provided, case by case, together with a few hints on the history of this discipline in the light of an artistic perspective. Therefore, the aim of this article is to try to summarize the main characteristics that might classify robot art as a unique and innovative discipline, and to track down some of the principles by which a robotic artifact can or cannot be considered an art piece in terms of social, cultural, and strictly artistic interest. This work was presented in part at the 13th International Symposium on Artificial Life and Robotics, Oita, Japan, January 31–February 2, 2008     

Explanation and prediction: an architecture for default and abductive reasoning

Although there are many arguments that logic is an appropriate tool for artificial intelligence, there has been a perceived problem with the monotonicity of classical logic. This paper elaborates on the idea that reasoning should be viewed as theory formation where logic tells us the consequences of our assumptions. The two activities of predicting what is expected to be true and explaining observations are considered in a simple theory formation framework. Properties of each activity are discussed, along with a number of proposals as to what should be predicted or accepted as reasonable explanations. An architecture is proposed to combine explanation and prediction into one coherent framework. Algorithms used to implement the system as well as examples from a running implementation are given.     

Three Process Perspectives: Organizations, Teams, and People

This paper provides the author's personal views and perspectives on software process improvement. Starting with his first work on technology assessment in IBM over 20 years ago, Watts Humphrey describes the process improvement work he has been directly involved in. This includes the development of the early process assessment methods, the original design of the CMM, and the introduction of the Personal Software Process (PSP)^SM and Team Software Process (TSP){^SM}. In addition to describing the original motivation for this work, the author also reviews many of the problems he and his associates encountered and why they solved them the way they did. He also comments on the outstanding issues and likely directions for future work. Finally, this work has built on the experiences and contributions of many people. Mr. Humphrey only describes work that he was personally involved in and he names many of the key contributors. However, so many people have been involved in this work that a full list of the important participants would be impractical.     

基于复小波噪声方差显著修正的SAR图像去噪

提出了一种基于复小波域统计建模与噪声方差估计显著性修正相结合的合成孔径雷达(Synthetic Aperture Radar,SAR)图像斑点噪声滤波方法。该方法首先通过对数变换将乘性噪声模型转化为加性噪声模型,然后对变换后的图像进行双树复小波变换(Dualtree Complex Wavelet Transform,DCWT),并对复数小波系数的统计分布进行建模。在此先验分布的基础上,通过运用贝叶斯估计方法从含噪系数中恢复原始系数,达到滤除噪声的目的。实验结果表明该方法在去除噪声的同时保留了图像的细节信息,取得了很好的降噪效果。     

How do children do mathematics with LOGO?

Abstract  This paper considers some results of a study designed to investigate the kinds of mathematical activity undertaken by children (aged between 8 and 11) as they learned to program in LOGO. A model of learning modes is proposed, which attempts to describe the ways in which children used and acquired understanding of the programming/mathematical concepts involved. The remainder of the paper is concerned with discussing the validity and limitations of the model, and its implications for further research and curriculum development.
