A Reliable Data Collection Protocol Based on Erasure-Resilient Code in Asymmetric Wireless Sensor Networks by Jian-Jun Lei, Taehyun Park, Gu-In Kwon

“…Unlike some well-known reliable data collection protocols such as CTP (Collection Tree Protocol) that uses ETX (expected transmission count) as the routing metric, RECPE exploits ETF (expected transmission count over forward links) to construct a one-way collection tree, which avoids missing some good routes and reduces the effect of asymmetric link in the network. …”

An enhanced media ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption algorithm on media cloud by Hao Li, Lianbing Deng, Cheng Yang, Jianbo Liu

“…To solve these problems, we propose an enhanced media ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption algorithm and introduce its two key components, the multiple access tree and the key chain. To increase the scalability of the proposed algorithm, we discussed the issues of multi-authorization, user revocation, and 1 − n multiple access tree. …”

Engineering Activity in the Context of Humanitarian Thinking by V. S. Sheinbaum

“…Shchedrovitsky’s hypothesis about programming as a dominant way of thinking of an engineer in an emerging new technological formation, which is based on goal setting with the subsequent design of an “activity tree” as a projection of a tree of goals. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the regularity of the organic strengthening of the humanitarian focus of engineering thinking in the course of the ongoing industrial revolution and the need to focus engineering pedagogy on this trend, based on the author’s proposed refinements of ontologically established ideas about engineering activities.…”
