In this paper, we design a mobile botnet, which exploits a novel command and control （CC） strategy named Push-Styled CC. It utilizes Google cloud messaging （GCM） service as the botnet channel. Compared with traditional botnet, Push-Styled CC avoids direct communications between botmasters and bots, which makes mobile botnets more stealthy and resilient. Since mobile devices users are sensitive to battery power and traffic consumption, Push- Styled botnet also applies adaptive network connection strategy to reduce traffic consumption and cost. To prove the efficacy of our design, we implemented the prototype of Push-Style CC in Android. The experiment results show that botnet traffic can be concealed in legal GCM traffic with low traffic cost.展开更多

All the agents, especially the leaders, have non-identical and nonlinear dynamics. According to the algebraic graph theory, Lyapunov stability theory and Kronecker product, a control strategy strategy is established to guarantee the finite-time consensus of multi-agent network with multiple leaders. Furthermore, several numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.展开更多

We report the design and manufacture of a dielectrophoresis(DEP) microchip of microelectrode arrays. This microchip device is constructed in order to use DEP to capture micro-particles of rare-earth oxides in petro-leum. Dielectrophoretic behavior of micro-particles of rare-earth oxides in oil media is explored. The dielectropho-retic effects of particles under different conditions are investigated. It is showed that the prepared microchip is suit-able for use in the investigation of dielectrophoretic responses of the rare-earth oxides in oil media. The factors such as frequency,particle size and valence of rare-earth metal are discussed. When the frequency is fixed,the transla-tion voltage decreases as particle size increases. Lower frequencies are more effective for manipulation of inorganic particles in oil media. Particles of the same rare-earth oxide with different size,as well as particles of different rare-earth oxides,are captured in different regions of the field by regulating DEP conditions. This may be a new method for separation and purification of particles of different rare-earth oxides,as well as classification of particles with different size.展开更多
