Hierarchical proxy consensus optimization for IoV based on blockchain and trust value by Baoqin ZHAI, Jian WANG, Lei HAN, Jiqiang LIU, Jiahao HE, Tianhao LIU

“…With the rapid development of Internet of vehicles, 5G and artificial intelligence technologies, intelligent transportation has become the development trend of transportation technology.As a vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-road information interaction platform, the Internet of vehicles is the basic support platform for intelligent traffic information sharing and processing.At the same time, the security of Internet of vehicles has attracted much attention, especially data security which may cause user privacy leakage.The blockchain technology has become a solution, but it still faces new challenges in efficiency, security and other aspects.With the increase of vehicle nodes and information, how to efficiently achieve information consensus in high-speed vehicle moving environment has become a key problem.Then a bottom-up RSU (road side unit) chain consensus protocol was proposed based on blockchain and trust value.Several typical consensus structures were compared, and bottom-up two-layer consensus structure was adopted according to the actual scenarios of the Internet of vehicles.Moreover, a group leader node election algorithm was proposed which is based on node participation, work completion and message value.The system security was ensured by assigning trust value to each vehicle.Following the consensus structure and algorithm work mentioned above, the specific process of the protocol was comprehensively described, which was divided into six steps: region division, group leader node selection, local consensus, leader primary node selection, global consensus, and intra-domain broadcast.Then the experiments were analyzed from four aspects: security, communication complexity, consensus algorithm delay and fault tolerance rate.Experiments showed that, compared with other schemes, the proposed protocol can effectively reduce communication complexity and shorten consensus delay under the condition of resisting conspiracy attack, witch attack and other attacks.On the premise of security, the protocol improves fault tolerance rate and enables more nodes to participate in information sharing to satisfy the requirements of Internet of vehicles scenarios.…”

De l’hygiène verbale dans le sud de la France ou Occitanie by James Costa

“…Nous analyserons la place dévolue à la langue dans ces questions, et nous chercherons à savoir en quoi cet ensemble de problématiques est un héritage des querelles des décennies passées, ou au contraire en quoi elle s’inscrit dans ce que Li (2000) et Geschiere (2009) ont nommé « une conjoncture globale de l’appartenance ». Pour Li et Geschiere, celle-ci serait une manifestation particulièrement symptomatique d’une modernité tardive caractérisée par un modèle économique dominant néolibéral. …”

Designing and Launching a System for Presenting Marine Charts and Spatial Information (Native Marine Web Service) by Ali Hasankhani

“…But surly no institution in the country has provided services based on vector layers and with OGC standards. At the global level, there are various systems for providing nautical chart services, these systems have the ability to provide various types of nautical charts with different features.The launch of this system is vital because by providing an accurate, up-to-date and practical service, all navigational information, including sea charts with appropriate scale, weather information, marine remote sensing identifiers, marine traffic, etc., can be recorded and monitored, and this It shows that it is possible to act more precisely in order to create the aristocracy of spatial information in the maritime domain and to reduce as much as possible the access of other countries to the maritime information of the blue borders and prevent its various consequences.…”
