Research on multi-address time-based blockchain covert communication method by Dongyan HUANG, Kun LI

“…Aiming at the problem of low amount of information carried by the existing block timestamp interval hiding method, a multi-address time-based blockchain covert communication method was proposed.Firstly, the ciphertext was split and transmitted by different addresses.The content of the ciphertext fragment was represented by the block timestamp interval of the address.Then the interval of the blocks was read and counted by the receiver where these addresses were located.Finally, the ciphertext was restored by combination.In addition, in view of the lack of concealment measures in the time-based blockchain covert communication system, a method of adjusting the time interval of transaction initiation was proposed to reduce the probability of address specificity caused by covert communication behavior.The experimental results verify that the transmission rate of the proposed method is about n times higher than that of the time-based blockchain covert communication method when n addresses are involved.…”

Dynamic deployment algorithm for multi-controllers based on bidirectional matching in software defined networking by Tao HU, Jianhui ZHANG, Weigong KONG, Sen YANG, Lujia CAO

“…Aiming at the controller load imbalance problem in distributed SDN,a multi-controller dynamic deployment algorithm based on bidirectional matching was proposed.Through collecting hop counts,delay and flow information in the network periodically,match lists of switch and controller was built respectively.According to the principle of optimal queuing,switches and controllers were selected from two match lists for implementing bidirectional matching,and the relationship of matching with the help of simulated annealing algorithm was optimized,which achieved dynamic deployment for multi-controller in distributed network.Results show that,compared with the existing approaches,this algorithm can match the connections between switches and controllers reasonably,and reduce the queue delay of flow request effectively.Moreover,and the controller load balancing rate has increased by 17.9% at least.…”

Data-driven data transmission of the Internet of things based on sensing spectrum by Xuanheng LI, Yi SUN, Jie WANG, Haixia ZHANG

“…Facing the problem of spectrum shortage caused by the mass data,in order to share as a solution,how operators use the sensing spectrum reasonably to transmit data was studied.Considering the limitation of Internet of things(IoT) devices,the ultra-dense cognitive heterogeneous network architecture was designed,based on traffic demand and perception cost,an optimal access control and perception decision method was designed to maximize network utility.Considering the uncertainty of the perceived spectrum,the optimal programming scheme was modeled as a mixed integer stochastic optimization problem,and a data-driven probabilistic solution method based on statistical characteristics was proposed.In the case of unknown probability distribution of available bandwidth,data transmission requirements meeting various service requests were counted.…”

Research on Network Selection Algorithm Based on User Preference in Heterogeneous System by Cun Yang, Jihong Zhao, Shuyuan Zhao

“…Most network selection algorithms did not pay more attention to user preference for networks which was based on service requirements.For this circumstance,a new network selection algorithm based on user prefenence was proposed.The algorithm was fully considerd service reqirements,user prefernece and network performance.The AHP algorithm and distance analysis were used to calculate subjective and objective user preference weight respectively for different heterogeneous networks.Then the user preference weight for networks could be obtained dynamically on the basis of user strategy.The performance of each candidate network was counted,based on which the optimum network was selected.Simulation results show that the algorithm performs well in network selection and reduces the number of handoff times as the user moves through the network boundary frequently.…”

Risk assessing and privacy-preserving scheme for privacy leakage in APP by Xinyu WANG, Ben NIU, Fenghua LI, Kun HE

“…The APP in smartphone contain various third-party services.However,the service providers illegally read the user’s private information.To address this problem,a privacy risk assessing scheme called PRAS was proposed.Firstly,a model was built to assess the risk of privacy leakage,by counting all the permissions acquired by each service providers and considering the non-linear impact of the permissions combination on privacy leakage.Then,by analyzing the balance between service quality and privacy-preserving,an optimal model was used to minimized the risk of private information leakage,and a permission management method was given to protect the privacy information among APP.The experiment results show that PRAS reduces the risk of privacy leakage by an average of 18.5%.…”
