Many existing inversion methods lack the competence of processing massive data and practical application capacity. This study proposes the application of GPU parallel processing technology to the focusing inversion method, aiming at improving the inversion accuracy while speeding up calculation and reducing the memory consumption, thus obtaining the fast and reliable inversion results for large complex model. In this paper, equivalent storage of geometric trellis is used to calculate the sensitivity matrix, and the inversion is based on GPU parallel computing technology. The parallel computing program that is optimized by reducing data transfer, access restrictions and instruction restrictions as well as latency hiding greatly reduces the memory usage, speeds up the calculation, and makes the fast inversion of large models possible. By comparing and analyzing the computing speed of traditional single thread CPU method and CUDA-based GPU parallel technology, the excellent acceleration performance of GPU parallel computing is verified, which provides ideas for practical application of some theoretical inversion methods restricted by computing speed and computer memory. The model test verifies that the focusing inversion method can overcome the problem of severe skin effect and ambiguity of geological body boundary. Moreover, the increase of the model cells and inversion data can more clearly depict the boundary position of the abnormal body and delineate its specific shape.展开更多

Cloud computing emerges as a paradigm of Internet computing in which dynamical, scalable and often virtuMized resources are provided as services. With virtualization technology, cloud computing offers diverse services （such as virtual computing, virtual storage, virtual bandwidth, etc.） for the public by means of multi-tenancy mode. Although users are enjoying the capabilities of super-computing and mass storage supplied by cloud computing, cloud security still remains as a hot spot problem, which is in essence the trust management between data owners and storage service providers. In this paper, we propose a data coloring method based on cloud watermarking to recognize and ensure mutual reputations. The experimental results show that the robustness of reverse cloud generator can guarantee users＇ embedded social reputation identifications.

Verified by radiosonde, including GPS/MET observations into the analysis makes an overall improvement to the analysis variables of temperature, winds, and water vapor. However, the variational model with the ray-tracing method is quite expensive for numerical weather prediction and climate research. For example, about 4 000 GPS/MET refraction angles need to be assimilated to produce an ideal global analysis. Just one iteration of minimization will take more than 24 hours CPU time on the NCEP's Cray C90 computer. Although efforts have been taken to reduce the computational cost, it is still prohibitive for operational data assimilation. In this paper, a parallel version of the three-dimensional variational data assimilation model of GPS/MET occultation measurement suitable for massive parallel processors architectures is developed. The divide-and-conquer strategy is used to achieve parallelism and is implemented by message passing. The authors present the principles for the code's design and examine the performance on the state-of-the-art parallel computers in China. The results show that this parallel model scales favorably as the number of processors is increased. With the Memory-IO technique implemented by the author, the wall clock time per iteration used for assimilating 1420 refraction angles is reduced from 45 s to 12 s using 1420 processors. This suggests that the new parallelized code has the potential to be useful in numerical weather prediction (NWP) and climate studies.展开更多

Motivated by fog computing, which focuses on how to effectively offload computation-intensive tasks from resource-constrained devices, this paper proposes a simple but yet effective data acquisition approach with the ability of filtering abnormal data and meeting the real-time requirement. Our method uses a cooperation mechanism by leveraging on both an architectural and algorithmic approach. Firstly, the sensor node with the limited computing resource only accomplishes detecting and marking the suspicious data using a light weight algorithm. Secondly, the cluster head evaluates suspicious data by referring to the data from the other sensor nodes in the same cluster and discard the abnormal data directly. Thirdly, the sink node fills up the discarded data with an approximate value using nearest neighbor data supplement method. Through the architecture, each node only consumes a few computational resources and distributes the heavily computing load to several nodes. Simulation results show that our data acquisition method is effective considering the real-time outlier filtering and the computing overhead.展开更多

Such services enable the organizations to scale-up or scale-down their in-house foundations. Generally, cloud services are provided by a third-party supplier who possesses the arrangement. Cloud computing has many advantages such as flexibility, efficiency, scalability, integration, and capital reduction. Moreover, it provides an advanced virtual space for organizations to deploy their applications or run their operations. With disregard to the possible benefits of cloud computing services, the organizations are reluctant to invest in cloud computing mainly due to security concerns. Security is one of the main challenges that hinder the growth of cloud computing. At the same time, service providers strive to reduce the risks over the clouds and increase their reliability in order to build mutual trust between them and the cloud customers. Various security issues and challenges are discussed in this research, and possible opportunities are stated.展开更多

In the age of big data, deriving values and insights from big data using rich analytics becomes important for achieving competitiveness, success and leadership in every field. The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing the number and types of products to emit data at an unprecedented rate. Heterogeneity, scale, timeliness, complexity, and privacy problems with large data impede progress at all phases of the pipeline that can create value from data issues. With the push of such massive data, we are entering a new era of computing driven by novel and ground breaking research innovation on elastic parallelism, partitioning and scalability. Designing a scalable system for analysing, processing and mining huge real world datasets has become one of the challenging problems facing both systems researchers and data management researchers. In this paper, we will give an overview of computing infrastructure for IoT data processing, focusing on architectural and major challenges of massive data. We will briefly discuss about emerging computing infrastructure and technologies that are promising for improving massive data management.展开更多

文摘Efficient and effective data acquisition is of theoretical and practical importance in WSN applications because data measured and collected by WSN is often unreliable, such as those often accompanied by noise and error, missing values or inconsistent data. Motivated by fog computing, which focuses on how to effectively offload computation-intensive tasks from resource-constrained devices, this paper proposes a simple but yet effective data acquisition approach with the ability of filtering abnormal data and meeting the real-time requirement. Our method uses a cooperation mechanism by leveraging on both an architectural and algorithmic approach. Firstly, the sensor node with the limited computing resource only accomplishes detecting and marking the suspicious data using a light weight algorithm. Secondly, the cluster head evaluates suspicious data by referring to the data from the other sensor nodes in the same cluster and discard the abnormal data directly. Thirdly, the sink node fills up the discarded data with an approximate value using nearest neighbor data supplement method. Through the architecture, each node only consumes a few computational resources and distributes the heavily computing load to several nodes. Simulation results show that our data acquisition method is effective considering the real-time outlier filtering and the computing overhead.

文摘Robotic computing systems play an important role in enabling intelligent robotic tasks through intelligent algo-rithms and supporting hardware.In recent years,the evolution of robotic algorithms indicates a roadmap from traditional robotics to hierarchical and end-to-end models.This algorithmic advancement poses a critical challenge in achieving balanced system-wide performance.Therefore,algorithm-hardware co-design has emerged as the primary methodology,which ana-lyzes algorithm behaviors on hardware to identify common computational properties.These properties can motivate algo-rithm optimization to reduce computational complexity and hardware innovation from architecture to circuit for high performance and high energy efficiency.We then reviewed recent works on robotic and embodied AI algorithms and computing hard-ware to demonstrate this algorithm-hardware co-design methodology.In the end,we discuss future research opportunities by answering two questions:(1)how to adapt the computing platforms to the rapid evolution of embodied AI algorithms,and(2)how to transform the potential of emerging hardware innovations into end-to-end inference improvements.

文摘Edge-computing-enabled smart greenhouses are a representative application of the Internet of Things(IoT)technology,which can monitor the environmental information in real-time and employ the information to contribute to intelligent decision-making.In the process,anomaly detection for wireless sensor data plays an important role.However,the traditional anomaly detection algorithms originally designed for anomaly detection in static data do not properly consider the inherent characteristics of the data stream produced by wireless sensors such as infiniteness,correlations,and concept drift,which may pose a considerable challenge to anomaly detection based on data stream and lead to low detection accuracy and efficiency.First,the data stream is usually generated quickly,which means that the data stream is infinite and enormous.Hence,any traditional off-line anomaly detection algorithm that attempts to store the whole dataset or to scan the dataset multiple times for anomaly detection will run out of memory space.Second,there exist correlations among different data streams,and traditional algorithms hardly consider these correlations.Third,the underlying data generation process or distribution may change over time.Thus,traditional anomaly detection algorithms with no model update will lose their effects.Considering these issues,a novel method(called DLSHiForest)based on Locality-Sensitive Hashing and the time window technique is proposed to solve these problems while achieving accurate and efficient detection.Comprehensive experiments are executed using a real-world agricultural greenhouse dataset to demonstrate the feasibility of our approach.Experimental results show that our proposal is practical for addressing the challenges of traditional anomaly detection while ensuring accuracy and efficiency.

文摘Protein-protein interactions are of great significance for human to understand the functional mechanisms of proteins.With the rapid development of high-throughput genomic technologies,massive protein-protein interaction(PPI)data have been generated,making it very difficult to analyze them efficiently.To address this problem,this paper presents a distributed framework by reimplementing one of state-of-the-art algorithms,i.e.,CoFex,using MapReduce.To do so,an in-depth analysis of its limitations is conducted from the perspectives of efficiency and memory consumption when applying it for large-scale PPI data analysis and prediction.Respective solutions are then devised to overcome these limitations.In particular,we adopt a novel tree-based data structure to reduce the heavy memory consumption caused by the huge sequence information of proteins.After that,its procedure is modified by following the MapReduce framework to take the prediction task distributively.A series of extensive experiments have been conducted to evaluate the performance of our framework in terms of both efficiency and accuracy.Experimental results well demonstrate that the proposed framework can considerably improve its computational efficiency by more than two orders of magnitude while retaining the same high accuracy.

文摘Data is becoming increasingly personal.Individuals regularly interact with a variety of structured data,ranging from SQLite databases on the phone to personal sensors and open government data.The“digital traces left by individuals through these interactions”are sometimes referred to as“small data”.Examples of“small data”include driving records,biometric measurements,search histories,weather forecasts and usage alerts.In this paper,we present a flexible protocol called LoRaCTP,which is based on LoRa technology that allows data“chunks”to be transferred over large distances with very low energy expenditure.LoRaCTP provides all the mechanisms necessary to make LoRa transfer reliable by introducing a lightweight connection setup and allowing the ideal sending of an as-long-as necessary data message.We designed this protocol as communication support for small-data edge-based IoT solutions,given its stability,low power usage,and the possibility to cover long distances.We evaluated our protocol using various data content sizes and communication distances to demonstrate its performance and reliability.
文摘Cyberattacks are difficult to prevent because the targeted companies and organizations are often relying on new and fundamentally insecure cloudbased technologies,such as the Internet of Things.With increasing industry adoption and migration of traditional computing services to the cloud,one of the main challenges in cybersecurity is to provide mechanisms to secure these technologies.This work proposes a Data Security Framework for cloud computing services(CCS)that evaluates and improves CCS data security from a software engineering perspective by evaluating the levels of security within the cloud computing paradigm using engineering methods and techniques applied to CCS.This framework is developed by means of a methodology based on a heuristic theory that incorporates knowledge generated by existing works as well as the experience of their implementation.The paper presents the design details of the framework,which consists of three stages:identification of data security requirements,management of data security risks and evaluation of data security performance in CCS.
文摘Cloud computing is a set of Information Technology services offered to users over the web on a rented base. Such services enable the organizations to scale-up or scale-down their in-house foundations. Generally, cloud services are provided by a third-party supplier who possesses the arrangement. Cloud computing has many advantages such as flexibility, efficiency, scalability, integration, and capital reduction. Moreover, it provides an advanced virtual space for organizations to deploy their applications or run their operations. With disregard to the possible benefits of cloud computing services, the organizations are reluctant to invest in cloud computing mainly due to security concerns. Security is one of the main challenges that hinder the growth of cloud computing. At the same time, service providers strive to reduce the risks over the clouds and increase their reliability in order to build mutual trust between them and the cloud customers. Various security issues and challenges are discussed in this research, and possible opportunities are stated.

文摘Digital data have become a torrent engulfing every area of business, science and engineering disciplines, gushing into every economy, every organization and every user of digital technology. In the age of big data, deriving values and insights from big data using rich analytics becomes important for achieving competitiveness, success and leadership in every field. The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing the number and types of products to emit data at an unprecedented rate. Heterogeneity, scale, timeliness, complexity, and privacy problems with large data impede progress at all phases of the pipeline that can create value from data issues. With the push of such massive data, we are entering a new era of computing driven by novel and ground breaking research innovation on elastic parallelism, partitioning and scalability. Designing a scalable system for analysing, processing and mining huge real world datasets has become one of the challenging problems facing both systems researchers and data management researchers. In this paper, we will give an overview of computing infrastructure for IoT data processing, focusing on architectural and major challenges of massive data. We will briefly discuss about emerging computing infrastructure and technologies that are promising for improving massive data management.
文摘With the rapid growth of Internet of Things(IoT)based models,and the lack amount of data makes cloud computing resources insufficient.Hence,edge computing-based techniques are becoming more popular in present research domains that makes data storage,and processing effective at the network edges.There are several advanced features like parallel processing and data perception are available in edge computing.Still,there are some challenges in providing privacy and data security over networks.To solve the security issues in Edge Computing,Hash-based Message Authentication Code(HMAC)algorithm is used to provide solutions for preserving data from various attacks that happens with the distributed network nature.This paper proposed a Trust Model for Secure Data Sharing(TM-SDS)with HMAC algorithm.Here,data security is ensured with local and global trust levels with the centralized processing of cloud and by conserving resources effectively.Further,the proposed model achieved 84.25%of packet delivery ratio which is better compared to existing models in the resulting phase.The data packets are securely transmitted between entities in the proposed model and results showed that proposed TM-SDS model outperforms the existing models in an efficient manner.
