An energy conservation method for locating wireless sensor network nodes in smart grid by Chong WANG, Zeng ZENG

“…Wireless sensor network has been increasingly applied for detecting，monitoring and locating targets in smart grid.In a wireless sensor network，energy is deemed as a critical resource and life of the system can be prolonged by energy saving strategy.A node detection and localization method based on energy-aware was presented.The method could be used for the clustering-based wireless sensor networks.It employed a posterior algorithm using a two-step communication protocol between the clustering head sensor and sensors inside.Only a small amount of node information was needed for the clustering head to run the localization program to determine the subset of sensors for further localization.In this way，consumption of energy and demand for communication bandwidth could be reduced，and the system life could be prolonged as well.Experiment results show that this locating method is able to save up to 32% of energy.…”

Quality of service based hierarchical resource allocation algorithm by Cheng DING, Jinrong CHEN, Xiaodong CAO, Yi WANG

“…Wireless sensor network (WSN) is widely used in the internet of things (IoT) scene because of its small size, low cost and strong sensing ability.How to improve the quality of service (QoS) under the premise of load balancing in WSN has become the focus of many scholars.Based on the study of heuristic resource allocation method and hierarchical structure resource allocation method in WSN, a quality of service based hierarchical resource allocation algorithm (QoSHRA) was proposed.Firstly, the resource allocation method based on low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) made the whole network form a hierarchical structure.Then, QoSHRA was used for resource allocation.The simulation results show that QoSHRA can further save the energy consumption of network transmission, ensure the effectiveness of service allocation, and improve the satisfaction rate of network resource QoS requirements on the premise of ensuring network load balancing.…”

Security control scheme for cloud data copy based on differential privacy model by Jun REN, Jin-bo XIONG, Zhi-qiang YAO

“…In cloud computing environment,adversary may use data deduplication as a side channel to eavesdrop users’ privacy.In order to tackle this serious issue,a secure copy number control scheme was proposed.The highlights of the proposed scheme lie in constructing a hybrid cloud framework.Then file was encrypted for second times by using the privacy protection parameters of differential privacy as well as the key of the file computed by convergent encryption algorithm.After the file is uploaded,each file has only one copy in the server.Meanwhile,compared with the scheme that use setting threshold value to control the number of copies,the proposed scheme can resist against the side channel attack,related files attack,and the specific attack of encryption algorithm and save the network bandwidth and disk storage space.…”

Maximum Mutual Information Feature Extraction Method Based on the Cloud Platform by Shasha Wei, Huijuan Lu, Wei Jin, Chao Li

“…With the large-scale application of gene chip,gene expression data with high dimension which exists a large number of irrelevant and redundant features may reduce classifier performance problem.A maximum mutual information feature extraction method based on cloud platforms was proposed.Hadoop cloud computing platform could be a parallel computing after gene expression data segmentation,features was extracted at the same time combined with the maximum mutual information method and the characteristics of cloud computing platform filter model was realized.Simulation experiments show that the maximum mutual information feature extraction method based on the cloud platform can rapid extraction of features in a higher classification accuracy which save a lot of time resources to make a highly efficient gene feature extraction system.…”

Bit-filling algorithm for fast subcarrier-selecting in ultrasonic through-metal communication by Linsen XU, Wei YANG, Hongxian TIAN, Tao WU

“…Aiming at the high complexity of the greedy bit-filling algorithm,a bit-filling algorithm for fast subcarrier-selecting used in ultrasonic through-metal communication was proposed.The approximate expression for the BER increment,which was used as the basis for selecting subcarriers in the greedy bit-filling algorithm,was derived by the BER approximation formula and Taylor formula.The subcarrier was selected first and then its BER was calculated.Therefore,it was unnecessary for the greedy bit-filling algorithm to calculate new BER of all subcarriers.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve nearly the same data rate as the greedy bit-filling algorithm and save the BER calculation of about <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mfrac> <mn>3</mn> <mn>4</mn> </mfrac> </math></inline-formula> subcarriers,greatly reducing the amount of calculation.…”
