High energy efficient clock synchronization protocol for sensor networks using time division flooding by ZENG Yi, HU Bo, FENG Hui

“…In most synchronization protocols that based on classic flooding scheme,the arrival time of packets couldn’t be predicted,so nodes had to keep monitoring the channel.Therefore,idle listening was quite serious which leaded to low energy efficiency.A novel synchronization protocol focusing on reducing idle listening was proposed,where time division flooding scheme was adopted to spread messages.Unique transmitting and receiving slots would be assigned to each individual in localized and distributed way.Higher energy efficiency,lower clock compensation error and faster convergence speed could be achieved,as shown in the simulations.Furthermore,it could be easily modified to co-work with plenty of MAC protocols.…”

Fault localization approach for null pointer exception by Shu-juan JIANG, Xing-ya WANG, Yan-mei ZHANG, Wei LI, Xiao-lin JU, IUYing-qi L

“…A novel approach to locate the fault for null pointer exception is presented.The approach first computes the static slice guided by the runtime stack,then conducts a null-pointer analysis and aliases analysis on the sliced program and obtains the suspicious statements that throw null-pointer exceptions,and finally generates a fault localization report.The experimental study indicates that,although time spent in runtime stack information collecting and aliases transferring,the proposed approach can narrow the searching space of the problem with runtime stack,and discover the value transfer process with aliases analysis,thereby eliminating false negative and false positive,and improving the effectiveness of fault localization.…”

Fair and anonymous ID-based multi-receiver signcryption by Liao-jun PANG, Lu GAO, Qing-qi PEI, Yu-min WANG

“…In order to solve the identify information exposure problem and the decryption unfairness problem in Lal et al’s identity-based multi-receiver signcryption scheme,a novel identity-based multi-receiver signcryption scheme,using the Lagrange interpolation method,was proposed to meet the requirements of the identity anonymity and the decryption fairness.Based on the Bilinear Diffie-Hellman and computational Diffie-Hellman assumptions,the security of IND-sMIBSC-CCA2 and EUF-sMIBSC-CMA was proved formally under the random oracle model,which shows that the proposed scheme can achieve the confidentiality and the unforgeablity required.…”

Improved identity based multi-receiver anonymous signcryption scheme by Bo ZHANG, Tao SUN, Dai-rong YU

“…Recently,Pang,et al proposed a novel identity based multi-receiver anonymous signcryption scheme (IBMRASC),which put into consideration both the sender's anonymity and the receiver's anonymity simultaneously.However,the analysis with respect to this scheme indicated that,under existing security models the adversary can distin-guish the ciphertexts associated with different plaintexts.Therefore,Pang's approach did not satisfy the requirement of indistinguishability against chosen ciphertext attacks (CCA).An improved scheme which is selective identity secure in the random oracle model was proposed.Under the CDH and Gap-BDH hard problem assumption,the improved scheme is both existentially unforgetable against chosen message attack and indistinguishable against adaptive CCA.…”
