Dynamic task scheduling algorithm with task synchronization and energy savings in hard real-time systems by HAN Jian-jun1, WU Xiao-dong1, LI Qing-hua1, Abbas A.Essa3

“…HDSA（hybrid dynamic scheduling algorithm） was proposeed,which slows down processor via voltage/frequency scaling,such that the real-time schedulability and task synchronization can be satisfied concurrently with as minimum as possible energy consumption.Based on RM and EDF,HDSA consists of a static algorithm and a dynamic one.The static algorithm computes the initially static speeds of all tasks under the static conditions.The dynamic algorithm fixes the execution frequencies of all critical sections at runtime,and reclaims the slack of tasks during their executions so as to further reduce energy consumption while satisfying timing constraints.On the other hand,frequent voltage switching,which is caused by the frequency inheritance,can be avoided by the approach when a task with a lower priority blocks a task with a higher priority.Consequently,the scheduling costs can also be reduced efficiently.The experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm obviously outperforms existing algorithms in terms of energy consumption.…”

Keyword-aware optimal route planning method for large-scale graph data by Ziyang LI, Pengcheng CHEN, Jiong YU, Yonglin PU, Zhenzhen HE, Xue LI, Shijie ZHENG

“…Focused on the problem that the planned routes cannot meet the personalized demand of different users in route planning of personalized self-driving tour, a keyword-aware optimal route planning method based on different user interests was proposed.Firstly, the road network information preprocessing model was set up and the road network information query graph was built by the road network information preprocessing algorithm.Secondly, the inverted index algorithm was proposed to prune the road network information query graph according to the personalized requirements from users, which improved the execution efficiency of keyword-aware optimal route planning method and reduced the memory cost of large-scale data processing effectively.Finally, the keyword-aware optimal route planning algorithm was proposed to realize personalized recommendation according to user interest by bidirectional parallel extension.The experimental results show that the method not only realizes the route planning to meet the individual needs of users but also improves the execution efficiency of the method through pruning and bidirectional parallel extension.…”

Public key searchable encryption scheme in blockchain-enabled multi-user environment by Dong ZHENG, Tianze ZHU, Rui GUO

“…In order to meet the needs of data security sharing in multi-user environment, a public key searchable encryption scheme supporting one-to-many mode was proposed.Specifically, the data owner could specify multiple users to retrieve the ciphertext by executing the encryption algorithm once, so as to achieve more flexible sharing of ciphertext data.In addition, the specific file encryption key transfer algorithm was designed to ensure that the user could decrypt and obtain the plaintext correctly after retrieving the ciphertext.Combined with the blockchain technology, the smart contract execution detection algorithm was used to ensure the correctness of the retrieval results.In terms of security, based on the decisional bilinear Diffie-Hellman hypothesis and the modified bilinear Diffie-Hellman hypothesis, it was proved that the proposed scheme satisfies the security requirements of keyword indistinguishability and trapdoor information indistinguishability under the random oracle model, and could resist the internal keyword guessing attack.Finally, the proposed scheme and the existing related schemes were simulated by using jPBC cryptolibrary, and the test results show that the proposed scheme has high computational efficiency.…”

Spectrum resource allocation method of maximizing transmission rate in cognitive heterogeneous wireless networks by Xiaoqing DONG, Lianglun CHENG, Gengzhong ZHENG, Tao WANG

“…Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to allocate spectrum resources to secondary users efficiently in cognitive heterogeneous wireless networks with heterogeneous spectrum attributes,dynamic channel conditions and diverse service requirements,a spectrum resource allocation strategy with maximum transmission rate was proposed.Firstly,the strategy aimed at maximizing the total transmission rate,and constrained the limited spectrum resources and user service requirements to construct a non-linear multi-constrained spectrum resource allocation 0-1 planning model.Then a polynomial time complexity simplification method was designed.According to idle spectrum information,channel conditions,business requirements and allocation decision history information,and the benefit matrix was constructed and modified to achieve constraint simplification,and the execution efficiency was improved by improving the coefficient matrix transformation strategy of the traditional Hungarian algorithm.Finally,the performance of the method was compared and analyzed by experiments.Experimental results show that the proposed method has higher transmission rate and execution efficiency.…”
