Multi-function supported privacy protection data aggregation scheme for V2G network by Baiji HU, Xiaojuan ZHANG, Yuancheng LI, Rongxin LAI

“…In view of the problem that the functions of the current privacy protection data aggregation scheme were insufficient to meet the increasingly rich application requirements, a multi-function supported privacy protection data aggregation (MFPDA) scheme for V2G network was proposed.By using cryptographic algorithms such as BGN, BLS, and Shamir’s secret sharing, as well as fog computing and consortium blockchain technology, multiple security functions like fault tolerance, resistance to internal attacks, batch signature verification, no need for trusted third parties, and multiple aggregation functions were integrated into one privacy protection data aggregation scheme.Security analysis shows that the proposed scheme can protect data aggregation’s security, privacy and reliability.The performance evaluation shows that the introduction of fog computing can significantly reduce the computing overhead of the control center, and the reduction rate can be as high as 66.6%; the improvement of the consortium blockchain can effectively reduce the communication and storage overhead of the system, and the reduction rate can reach 16.7% and 24.9% respectively.…”

Routes of motivation: stable psychological dispositions are associated with dynamic changes in cortico-cortical functional connectivity. by Vanda Viola, Annalisa Tosoni, Arie W Kruglanski, Gaspare Galati, Lucia Mannetti

“…Here we show that high (compared to low) levels of NCC, measured with need for cognitive closure scale, are associated with reduced online adjustment in cognitive control, as indexed by behavioral conflict adaptation. This behavioral effect is mediated by dynamic changes in cortico-cortical functional connectivity between prefrontal regions involved in conflict monitoring and implementation of cognitive control. …”

Selective amino acid formulation enhances anion secretion and restores function in cystic fibrosis mutations by Astrid Grosche, Anusree Sasidharan, Matthias Salathe, Nathalie Baumlin, Damiano Angoli, Sreekala Prabhakaran, Xiaodong Xu, Sadasivan Vidyasagar

“…IntroductionIn cystic fibrosis (CF), most CFTR mutations cause partial (Class II) or complete (Class I) loss of function. Modulators (VX) can improve CFTR function in Class II mutations but are ineffective for Class I mutations and may cause side effects, resulting in tolerability issues with concerns about long-term safety. …”
