Research on password-authenticated key exchange protocol over lattices by Yuanbo GUO, Anqi YIN

“…With the rapid development of quantum computing technology, password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) protocol based on conventional difficult problems will face serious security threats in the post-quantum era.Lattice-based cryptosystem has been certified by NIST as the most promising cryptosystem in the post-quantum era due to its high efficiency, high security and support for stronger cryptographic service functions (such as fully homomorphic encryption and multi-linear mapping).Firstly, the research progress of lattice-based PAKE protocol was systematically sort out, mainly including the centralized two-party, three-party PAKE protocol and the distributed PAKE protocol over lattices.Then, the relevant typical schemes were compared and analyzed, respectively.Finally, the future research directions PAKE protocol over lattices were prospected.…”

Planning approach of survivable fiber-wireless broadband access network by Hongjun TAN, Yamin XIE, Yejun LIU

“…The emerging fiber-wireless（FiWi）broadband access network provides not only the new technological references for flexible broadband access anywhere and anytime,but also the research opportunities for the cost-efficient design of survivable broadband access network.The study of survivable FiWi access network planning was focused on,and an approach of survivable network planning based on wireless-rerouting protection was proposed.When any fiber link cuts,the failed optical network unit（ONU）can transfer its traffic into other normal ONUs.Solving the joint optimization problem of wireless routers placement,backup radios configuration and ONU capacity allocation was put more importance on,aiming to fully protect all traffic with the minimum deployment cost.The method of integer linear programming was employed to obtain the optimal solution for small-scale network planning.The heuristic algorithm was also proposed for the large-scale network planning.Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in reducing network deployment cost.…”
