To study the passive worm behaviors, this paper firstly analyzes and obtains the average delay for all peers in the whole transmitting process due to the limitation of network throughput, and then proposes a mathematical model for the propagation of passive worms over the unstructured P2P networks. The model mainly takes the effect of the network throughput into account, and applies a new healthy files dissemination-based defense strategy according to the file popularity which follows the Zipf distribution. The simulation results show that the propagation of passive worms is mainly governed by the number of hops, initially infected files and uninfected files. The larger the number of hops, the more rapidly the passive worms propagate. If the number of the initially infected files is increased by the attackers, the propagation speed of passive worms increases obviously. A larger size of the uninfected file results in a better attack performance. However, the number of files generated by passive worms is not an important factor governing the propagation of passive worms. The effectiveness of healthy files dissemination strategy is verified. This model can provide a guideline in the control of unstructured P2P networks as well as passive worm defense.展开更多

These latent threats stimulate activities of modeling and analysis of the proactive P2P worm propagation. Based on the classical two-factor model,in this paper,we propose a novel proactive worm propagation model in unstructured P2P networks (called the four-factor model) by considering four factors:(1) network topology,(2) countermeasures taken by Internet service providers (ISPs) and users,(3) configuration diversity of nodes in the P2P network,and (4) attack and defense strategies. Simulations and experiments show that proactive P2P worms can be slowed down by two ways:improvement of the configuration diversity of the P2P network and using powerful rules to reinforce the most connected nodes from being compromised. The four-factor model provides a better description and prediction of the proactive P2P worm propagation.展开更多

Compared with the traditional min-hops criterion, the new approach introduces a fuzzy knowledge combination theory to investigate several important factors that influence files transfer success rate and efficiency. Whereas the min-hops based protocols only ask the nearest candidate peer for desired files, the selection algorithm based on AOC comprehensively considers users＇ preferences and network requirements with flexible balancing rules. Furthermore, its advantage also expresses in the independence of specified resource discovering protocols, allowing for scalability. The simulation results show that when using the AOC based peer selection algorithm, system performance is much better than the rain-hops scheme, with files successful transfer rate improved more than 50% and transfer time re- duced at least 20%.展开更多

Popular wireless sensor nodes like ZigBee have splendid interoperability after IEEE 802.15.4 standardization in the domain of wireless personal area network (WPAN). ZigBee has another great feature mobility that makes the ZigBee network more versatile. The mobility feature of ZigBee mobile nodes has a greater impact on network performance than fixed nodes. This impact sometimes turns into more severe because of network structure and mobility model. This study mainly focuses on the performance analysis of the ZigBee mobile node under Random and Octagonal mobility management model with the Tree routing method. The Riverbed academic modeler is used to design, implement and simulate the ZigBee network under certain conditions. This study also presents a competitive performance analysis based on ZigBee mobile nodes transmitter and receiver characteristics under the observation of the mobility model. This indicates that Octagonal mobility model exhibits better performance than the Random mobility model. This study will constitute a new way for further designing and planning a reliable and efficient ZigBee network.展开更多

文摘Trust has become an increasingly important issue given society’s growing reliance on electronic transactions.Peer-to-peer(P2P)networks are among the main electronic transaction environments affected by trust issues due to the freedom and anonymity of peers(users)and the inherent openness of these networks.A malicious peer can easily join a P2P network and abuse its peers and resources,resulting in a large-scale failure that might shut down the entire network.Therefore,a plethora of researchers have proposed trust management systems to mitigate the impact of the problem.However,due to the problem’s scale and complexity,more research is necessary.The algorithm proposed here,HierarchTrust,attempts to create a more reliable environment in which the selection of a peer provider of a file or other resource is based on several trust values represented in hierarchical form.The values at the top of the hierarchical form are more trusted than those at the lower end of the hierarchy.Trust,in HierarchTrust,is generally calculated based on the standard deviation.Evaluation via simulation showed that HierarchTrust produced a better success rate than the well-established EigenTrust algorithm.
文摘One of the key challenges in ad-hoc networks is the resource discovery problem.How efciently&quickly the queried resource/object can be resolved in such a highly dynamic self-evolving network is the underlying question?Broadcasting is a basic technique in the Mobile Ad-hoc Networks(MANETs),and it refers to sending a packet from one node to every other node within the transmission range.Flooding is a type of broadcast where the received packet is retransmitted once by every node.The naive ooding technique oods the network with query messages,while the random walk scheme operates by contacting subsets of each node’s neighbors at every step,thereby restricting the search space.Many earlier works have mainly focused on the simulation-based analysis of ooding technique,and its variants,in a wired network scenario.Although,there have been some empirical studies in peer-to-peer(P2P)networks,the analytical results are still lacking,especially in the context of mobile P2P networks.In this article,we mathematically model different widely used existing search techniques,and compare with the proposed improved random walk method,a simple lightweight approach suitable for the non-DHT architecture.We provide analytical expressions to measure the performance of the different ooding-based search techniques,and our proposed technique.We analytically derive 3 relevant key performance measures,i.e.,the avg.number of steps needed to nd a resource,the probability of locating a resource,and the avg.number of messages generated during the entire search process.

文摘The development of network resources changes the network computing models.P2P networks,a new type of network adopting peer-to-peer strategy for computing,have attracted worldwide attention.The P2P architecture is a type of distributed network in which all participants share their hardware resources and the shared resources can be directly accessed by peer nodes without going through any dedicated servers.The participants in a P2P network are both resource providers and resource consumers.This article on P2P networks is divided into two issues.In the previous issue,P2P architecture,network models and core search algorithms were introduced.The second part in this issue is analyzing the current P2P research and application situations,as well as the impacts of P2P on telecom operators and equipment vendors.

文摘In order to improve the performance of peer-to-peer files sharing system under mobile distributed en- vironments, a novel always-optimally-coordinated （AOC） criterion and corresponding candidate selection algorithm are proposed in this paper. Compared with the traditional min-hops criterion, the new approach introduces a fuzzy knowledge combination theory to investigate several important factors that influence files transfer success rate and efficiency. Whereas the min-hops based protocols only ask the nearest candidate peer for desired files, the selection algorithm based on AOC comprehensively considers users＇ preferences and network requirements with flexible balancing rules. Furthermore, its advantage also expresses in the independence of specified resource discovering protocols, allowing for scalability. The simulation results show that when using the AOC based peer selection algorithm, system performance is much better than the rain-hops scheme, with files successful transfer rate improved more than 50% and transfer time re- duced at least 20%.
文摘Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a special type of communication medium through distributed sensor nodes. Popular wireless sensor nodes like ZigBee have splendid interoperability after IEEE 802.15.4 standardization in the domain of wireless personal area network (WPAN). ZigBee has another great feature mobility that makes the ZigBee network more versatile. The mobility feature of ZigBee mobile nodes has a greater impact on network performance than fixed nodes. This impact sometimes turns into more severe because of network structure and mobility model. This study mainly focuses on the performance analysis of the ZigBee mobile node under Random and Octagonal mobility management model with the Tree routing method. The Riverbed academic modeler is used to design, implement and simulate the ZigBee network under certain conditions. This study also presents a competitive performance analysis based on ZigBee mobile nodes transmitter and receiver characteristics under the observation of the mobility model. This indicates that Octagonal mobility model exhibits better performance than the Random mobility model. This study will constitute a new way for further designing and planning a reliable and efficient ZigBee network.
文摘In this paper,we propose a clustered multihop cellular network(cMCN)architecture and study its performance using fixed channel assignment(FCA)scheme for uplink transmission.The proposed cMCN using FCA can be applied with some reuse factors.An analytical model based on Markov chain is developed to analyze its performance and validated through computer simulation.And then,we implement direct peer-to-peer communication(DC)in cMCN by considering more reasonable conditions in practice.DC means that two calls communicate directly instead of going through base stations.The results show that cMCN with FCA can reduce the call blocking probability significantly as compared with the traditional single-hop cellular networks with FCA and can be further reduced by using DC.

文摘Software systems play increasing important roles in modern society,and the ability against attacks is of great practical importance to crucial software systems,resulting in that the structure and robustness of software systems have attracted a tremendous amount of interest in recent years.In this paper,based on the source code of Tar and MySQL,we propose an approach to generate coupled software networks and construct three kinds of directed software networks:The function call network,the weakly coupled network and the strongly coupled network.The structural properties of these complex networks are extensively investigated.It is found that the average influence and the average dependence for all functions are the same.Moreover,eight attacking strategies and two robustness indicators(the weakly connected indicator and the strongly connected indicator)are introduced to analyze the robustness of software networks.This shows that the strongly coupled network is just a weakly connected network rather than a strongly connected one.For MySQL,high in-degree strategy outperforms other attacking strategies when the weakly connected indicator is used.On the other hand,high out-degree strategy is a good choice when the strongly connected indicator is adopted.This work will highlight a better understanding of the structure and robustness of software networks.

文摘Lost acceleration response reconstruction is crucial for assessing structural conditions in structural health monitoring(SHM).However,traditional methods struggle to address the reconstruction of acceleration responses with complex features,resulting in a lower reconstruction accuracy.This paper addresses this challenge by leveraging the advanced feature extraction and learning capabilities of fully convolutional networks(FCN)to achieve precise reconstruction of acceleration responses.In the designed network architecture,the incorporation of skip connections preserves low-level details of the network,greatly facilitating the flow of information and improving training efficiency and accuracy.Dropout techniques are employed to reduce computational load and enhance feature extraction.The proposed FCN model automatically extracts high-level features from the input data and establishes a nonlinearmapping relationship between the input and output responses.Finally,the accuracy of the FCN for structural response reconstructionwas evaluated using acceleration data from an experimental arch rib and comparedwith several traditional methods.Additionally,this approach was applied to reconstruct actual acceleration responses measured by an SHM system on a long-span bridge.Through parameter analysis,the feasibility and accuracy of aspects such as available response positions,the number of available channels,and multi-channel response reconstruction were explored.The results indicate that this method exhibits high-precision response reconstruction capability in both time and frequency domains.,with performance surpassing that of other networks,confirming its effectiveness in reconstructing responses under various sensor data loss scenarios.

文摘The performance of polymer networks is directly determined by their structure.Understanding the network structure offers insights into optimizing material performance,such as elasticity,toughness,and swelling behavior.Herein,in this study we introduce the Dijkstra algorithm from graph theory to characterize polymer networks based on star-shaped multi-armed precursors by employing coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations coupled with stochastic reaction model.Our research focuses on the structure characteristics of the generated networks,including the number and size of loops,as well as network dispersity characterized by loops.Tracking the number of loops during network generation allows for the identification of the gel point.The size distribution of loops in the network is primarily related to the functionality of the precursors,and the system with fewer precursor arms exhibiting larger average loop sizes.Strain-stress curves indicate that materials with identical functionality and precursor arm lengths generally exhibit superior performance.This method of characterizing network structures helps to refine microscopic structural analysis and contributes to the enhancement and optimization of material properties.

文摘Structured illumination microscopy(SIM)has been widely applied in the superresolution imaging of subcellular dynamics in live cells.Higher spatial resolution is expected for the observation of finer structures.However,further increasing spatial resolution in SIM under the condition of strong background and noise levels remains challenging.Here,we report a method to achieve deep resolution enhancement of SIM by combining an untrained neural network with an alternating direction method of multipliers(ADMM)framework,i.e.,ADMM-DRE-SIM.By exploiting the implicit image priors in the neural network and the Hessian prior in the ADMM framework associated with the optical transfer model of SIM,ADMM-DRE-SIM can further realize the spatial frequency extension without the requirement of training datasets.Moreover,an image degradation model containing the convolution with equivalent point spread function of SIM and additional background map is utilized to suppress the strong background while keeping the structure fidelity.Experimental results by imaging tubulins and actins show that ADMM-DRE-SIM can obtain the resolution enhancement by a factor of∼1.6 compared to conventional SIM,evidencing the promising applications of ADMM-DRE-SIM in superresolution biomedical imaging.

文摘Fatigue damage is a primary contributor to the failure of composite structures,underscoring the critical importance of monitoring its progression to ensure structural safety.This paper introduces an innovative approach to fatigue damage monitoring in composite structures,leveraging a hybrid methodology that integrates the Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)-Backpropagation(BP)neural network with an ultrasonic guided wave feature selection algorithm.Initially,a network of piezoelectric ceramic sensors is employed to transmit and capture ultrasonic-guided waves,thereby establishing a signal space that correlates with the structural condition.Subsequently,the Relief-F algorithm is applied for signal feature extraction,culminating in the formation of a feature matrix.This matrix is then utilized to train the WOA-BP neural network,which optimizes the fatigue damage identification model globally.The proposed model’s efficacy in quantifying fatigue damage is tested against fatigue test datasets,with its performance benchmarked against the traditional BP neural network algorithm.The findings demonstrate that the WOA-BP neural network model not only surpasses the BP model in predictive accuracy but also exhibits enhanced global search capabilities.The effect of different sensor-receiver path signals on the model damage recognition results is also discussed.The results of the discussion found that the path directly through the damaged area is more accurate in modeling damage recognition compared to the path signals away from the damaged area.Consequently,the proposed monitoring method in the fatigue test dataset is adept at accurately tracking and recognizing the progression of fatigue damage.

文摘BACKGROUND Depression,non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI),and suicide attempts(SA)often co-occur during adolescence and are associated with long-term adverse health outcomes.Unfortunately,neural mechanisms underlying self-injury and SA are poorly understood in depressed adolescents but likely relate to the structural abnormalities in brain regions.AIM To investigate structural network communication within large-scale brain networks in adolescents with depression.METHODS We constructed five distinct network communication models to evaluate structural network efficiency at the whole-brain level in adolescents with depression.Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging data were acquired from 32 healthy controls and 85 depressed adolescents,including 17 depressed adolescents without SA or NSSI(major depressive disorder group),27 depressed adolescents with NSSI but no SA(NSSI group),and 41 depressed adolescents with SA and NSSI(NSSI+SA group).RESULTS Significant differences in structural network communication were observed across the four groups,involving spatially widespread brain regions,particularly encompassing cortico-cortical connections(e.g.,dorsal posterior cingulate gyrus and the right ventral posterior cingulate gyrus;connections based on precentral gyrus)and cortico-subcortical circuits(e.g.,the nucleus accumbens-frontal circuit).In addition,we examined whether compromised communication efficiency was linked to clinical symptoms in the depressed adolescents.We observed significant correlations between network communication efficiencies and clinical scale scores derived from depressed adolescents with NSSI and SA.CONCLUSION This study provides evidence of structural network communication differences in depressed adolescents with NSSI and SA,highlighting impaired neuroanatomical communication efficiency as a potential contributor to their symptoms.These findings offer new insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the comorbidity of NSSI and SA in adolescent depression.
