Multi-ciphertext batch auditable decryption outsourcing SM9-HIBE key encapsulation mechanism by Kuan LIU, Jianting NING, Wei WU, Shengmin XU, Chao LIN

“…The decryption operation of SM9-HIBE key encapsulation mechanism required two bilinear pairing operations, for the equipment requiring frequent decryption of massive data and with limited computing resources, such resourcing-consuming pairing operation will become an important bottleneck restricting the system deployment.To address the above issue, a decryption outsourcing key encapsulation mechanism OASM9-HIBE based on SM9-HIBE was proposed, which supported multi-ciphertext batch auditing.The Fujisaki-Okamoto transformation technology was utilized to prove the RCCA security of OASM9-HIBE under the random oracle model.All resourcing-consuming bilinear pairing operations were safely offloaded to the cloud server in OASM9-HIBE, the k-th hierarchical user only need to perform one simple exponentiation operation to complete the final decryption.The decryption efficiency of the original SM9-HIBE was effectively improved under the premise of not changing the downward proxy generation function of the user’s private key between hierarchical.OASM9-HIBE additively achieved the property of batch auditing of multi-transformed ciphertexts by employing the key blinding technology.Theoretical analysis and evaluation of experimental data highlight the feasibility and efficiency of OASM9-HIBE, OASM9-HIBE extends the application field of SM9 series algorithms.…”

Marine survey unmanned surface vessel:platform design and application by Weiping WANG, Xi HE, Chao DONG, Bing ZHENG, Xue LI

“…Marine survey unmanned surface vessel (USV) has a wide range of applications.However, the attitude of USV is easily affected by wind, waves, currents and floating debris, which may cause structural damage or low precision observation.Double hull and wide deck platform of unmanned surface vessed was designed, and the transducer of multi-beam echo sounder was installed on the lifting mechanism.These designs improved the sailing attitude of the platform, the safety of the transducer and the accuracy of the observed data.In 2020, this USV was participated in the dike-inspection mission of Jiangxi’s emergency flood relief.It successfully inspected the sediment environment of 14 km dike, affected by the unfavorable working conditions like rapid water flow, turbid water and floating garbage.Four risks were located, which provided important data support for the anti-flood campaign.…”
