Unmanned aerial vehicle enabled communication technologies and applications for Internet of things by Yalin LIU, Hongning DAI, Qubeijian WANG

“…The Internet of things (IoT) is designed to provide the wide coverage and the massive connectivity service for“things” node,and the collected “things” data can provide support for the intelligent decision-making at the application layer.However,due to the fixed deployment of the access point of the “things” node,the topology of the IoT network is not flexible,consequently making it difficult to dynamically cover the IoT node or regions with high mobility.In addition,the current IoT communication technology suffers from the remote blind area,which makes it impossible for a large number of “things” node to connect to establish the “network” in some geologically-complexed regions.UAV has high mobility,low cost and flexible deployment,which is suitable to solve the above issues.Studying the communication technology of UAV assisted IoT,help the IoT to extend the existing network coverage,enhance the flexibility of the IoT topology and provide more diverse IoT service.…”

Robust multi-dimensional trust model for improving the survivability of ad hoc networks by CHEN Shen-long1, ZHANG Yu-qing1

“…Attackers could perform the blended attack against ad hoc networks through utilizing several attack methods together.Under this circumstance,a robust multi-dimensional trust model（RMTM） to improve the survivability of ad hoc networks was proposed.RMTM was based on D-S theory.Nodes’ attack evidences were classified into several dimen-sions and the trust of each dimension was computed according to basic probability assignment function.Then RMTM implemented the comprehensive evaluation through the multi-dimensional trust fusion.In order to resist the attacks against trust models themselves,the corresponding tolerant algorithms were designed to enhance the RMTM’s robustness.The simulations show that RMTM can effectively defense against both ad hoc network blended attack and trust model attacks with limited overload and consequently it significantly improves the survivability of ad hoc networks.…”

Self-corrected coefficient smoothing method based network security situation prediction by Hongyu YANG, Xugao ZHANG

“…In order to solve the problem of insufficient accuracy of current network security situation prediction methods,a new network security situation prediction model was proposed based on self-correcting coefficient smoothing.Firstly,a network security assessment quantification method was designed to transform the alarm information into situation real value time series based on the entropy correlation degree.Then,the adaptive solution of the static smoothing coefficient was calculated and the predicted initial value was obtained by using the variable domain space.Finally,based on the error category,the time-changing weighted Markov chain was built to modify the initial network situation prediction result and the prediction accuracy was further raised.The prediction model was tested with LL_DOS_1.0 dataset and the experimental results show that the proposed model has higher adaptability and prediction accuracy for network situation time series.…”

Orchestration mechanism for VNF hardware acceleration resources in SDN/NFV architecture by Tong DUAN, Julong LAN, Yuxiang HU, Hongwei FAN

“…The hardware acceleration mechanism for VNF (virtual network function) is recently a hot research topic in SDN/NFV architecture because of the low processing performance of VNF.Once hardware acceleration resources have been plugged into the network,how to optimally mange and orchestrate these resources under service requirements remains a question to be solved.Firstly,a unified management architecture based on separated control for hardware acceleration resources was proposed.Then,traditional network topology together with hardware acceleration resources were modeled into a unified network model and then the hardware acceleration resource orchestration problem was transferred into a multi-objective linear programming problem.Finally,a hardware-accelerator-card-prior’ heuristic algorithm was designed.Experimental results show that compared with existing methods,the proposed orchestration mechanism can efficiently manage hardware acceleration resources and reduce the processing latency by 30%.…”

Decentralized internet infrastructure by Bingyang LIU, Fei YANG, Shoushou REN, Xinpeng WEI, Xue YANG, Chuang WANG, Zhiwei YAN

“…Inter-domain routing system,domain name system (DNS) and public key infrastructure (PKI) are the fundamental infrastructures of the internet.These infrastructures help to provide network connectivity,service availability and communication trusts between different internet entities.However,these infrastructures are all designed based on a centralized system architecture or a trusted model,which suffers from many vulnerabilities.An architecture called decentralized internet infrastructure (DII) based on decentralization techniques was proposed.The DII architecture consists of three layers.The underlying layer was the distributed ledger layer,providing decentralized trusted foundation for DII.The intermediate layer,called name space management layer,fulfills the management of internet core resources (such as IP addresses,AS numbers and domain names) and provides trustworthy mapping information between different resources.The top layer was an open application layer that could support trustworthy decentralized internet applications.…”
