Survey on network topology visualization by Song WANG, Ye ZHANG, Yadong WU

“…As the basis of network monitoring,network management,and network security situation awareness,network topology visualization plays an underlying role in reflecting the whole state of the network and discovering the potential rules in the network topology.The basic content of network topology visualization was introduced and the main challenges in the research of network topology visualization were summarized from two aspects:the internal characteristics of network data and the point of the applied demand angle of the users.A top-down VPI model for network topology visualization and analysis drawing from the experience of domain experts by analyzing and understanding the nodes and connection status of network topology,having an insight into the potential laws of topological information like performance bottleneck,network security,time-varying characteristics and so on.This model includes vision,procedure,and interaction.According to the VPI model,visualization methods based on perception enhance were summarized from three aspects:enhancement of visual perception,enhancement of time-varied procedure and enhancement of exploratory interaction.Finally,future development trend of those topics were discussed combined with application demand.…”

Quantum public-key encryption protocol based on single-photon by Wen-jun LUO, Guan-li LIU

“…A quantum public-key encryption protocol based on single-photon was provided.Pseudo random sequence mapping to private keys to implement corresponding quantum operations and then obtaining quantum public-key to encode the plaintext was used.Employ the method of block classification to lower the requirement for storage capacity of the sender.A new quantum source as transmission carrier was introduced and simply encoding and decoding rules were designed based on the laws of quantum non-cloning and ciphertext indistinguishability.On the other hand,classical one-time pad technique is used to ensure the security of quantum key and plaintext in the transmission channel.At the same time,select different updating strategy of quantum public-key according to the results of error detection which can significantly reduce key consumption.Compared with the previous quantum public-key encryption based on entangled states and single-photon,there are no entangled states and decoyed particles are needed,so it is not only efficient to reduce the overhead of communication traffic between legitimate users,but also easier to carry out in practice.The analysis shows that the proposed scheme is secure.…”

Research on efficient cross trust-domain group authentication with conditional privacy of vehicle platoon under blockchian architecture by Yingjie XIA, Siyu ZHU, Xuejiao LIU

“…In order to balance the security and efficiency of vehicle platoon cross trust-domain identity authentication, an efficient cross trust-domain group authentication scheme with conditional privacy of vehicle platoon under blockchian architecture was proposed.A novel block structure BM-Tree was designed for vehicle platoon identity authentication, which provided support for efficient cross trust-domain group authentication by sharing the group authentication parame-ters on the blockchain.Dynamic pseudonym was used for vehicle identity privacy-preserving and bilinear mapping was used to transform the trust-domain parameters, which realized cross trust-domain group authentication with conditional privacy.An efficient group authentication protocol based on BM-Tree was proposed, which realized batch identity au-thentication and re-authentication of vehicle platoon.The proposed scheme has better performance than existing cross trust-domain authentication methods in terms of security and computational overhead.Experimental result shows that the authentication delay is reduced by 29%, 25% and 53% on average, respectively compared with BLA, MDPA and BBA.…”
