QoS rerouting mechanism for SON by Long-fei WANG, Xing-wei WANG, Min HUANG

“…Along with the development of computer network,SON(self-organizing network)has attracted wide attention with its flexibility,adaptability,robustness.On the basis of OSPFv3,the interactive message of QoS state was defined to establish the information table of neighbors,store the link QoS information,judge the triggering of rerouting,and then the biological behaviors,such as hibernation and awakening,were introduced to the routing nodes.A hybrid rerouting mechanism was adopted to make the corresponding treatment under various network failure situations,so that the application QoS support could be provided when the network state was changing.Simulation results show that the proposed mechanism has better performance.…”

New data fusion model of intrusion detection——IDSFP by TIAN Jun-feng, ZHAO Wei-dong, DU Rui-zhong, CAI Hong-yun

“…Based on multi-sensor data fusion technology,a new intrusion detection data fusion model-IDSFP was pre-sented.The model was characterized by correlating and merging alerts of different types of IDS,generating the measures of the security situation,thus constituting the evidence.Current security situation of network was evaluated by applying the D-S evidence theory,and various IDS of network were adjusted dynamically to strengthen the detection of the data which relates to the attack attempt.Consequently,the false positive rate and the false negative rate are effectively reduced,and the detection efficiency of IDS is accordingly improved.…”

Context-aware and self-adaptive trust model for pervasive computing by Jiang-tao WANG, Zhi-gang CHEN, Xiao-heng DENG

“…To cope with the behaviour trust problems emerging at ve environments,a context-aware and selfadaptive trust model(CASATM) for pervasive environments was proposed,the trust model provided security protection based on service content adaptively at various level,nd be sensitive to contexts such as time,location and service content.A simple and efficient risk evaluation model was presented to initialize trust value to unknown entities which was a common phenomenon in pervasive environments.Simulation results testify to the contexts awareness of this model,as well as resistance of periodically cheating behaviour from malicious entity.…”
