A novel authenticated symmetric-key establishment scheme is proposed for WBSN,which fully exploits the physiological features obtained by network entities via the body channel available in WBSN but not other wireless networks. The self-defined Intrinsic Shared Secret (ISS) is used to replace the pre-deployment of secrets among network entities,which thus eliminates centralized services or au-thorities essential in existing protocols,and resolves the key transport problem in the pure symmet-ric-key cryptosystem for WBSN as well. The security properties of the proposed scheme are demon-strated in terms of its attack complexity and the types of attacks it can resist. Besides,the scheme can be implemented under a light-weight way in WBSN systems. Due to the importance of the ISS concept,the analysis on using false acceptance/false rejection method to evaluate the performance of ISS for its usage in the scheme is also demonstrated.展开更多

Both hardware and software of PASS are tai-lored for sensing in wide farmland without human supervision. A dedicated single-chip sensor node platform is designed specially for wireless multi-media sensor network. To guarantee the bulky data transmission, a bit-map index reliable data transmission mecha-nism is proposed.

This gene annotation system was widely used to investigate large numbers of genes involving in real active role or regulator in cell response. First of all, differentially expressed genes were isolated by using genechip platform at 96 h post-inoculation with FM in maize inbred Bt-1. In total, 482 differentially expressed unique genes were screened out in inbred Bt-1 when compared to mock-inoculated bract tissues. Then, each gene was annotated to define functional class by GO method. Finally, these large FM-responsive genes with significant differentially change were sorted into cellular component, molecular function and biological process with complicated network by molecular annotation system. The demonstrated information in the GO analysis could provide another view for understanding the molecular mechanism and indicate a deeply complicated network with gene function underlying disease development in the host tissue. The findings in this study provide important bases to probe the molecular processes, the alteration of metabolism and the immune mechanism upon the FM infection in maize.展开更多

A low cost compact intellectual property （IP） core of the entire advanced encryption standard （AES） algorithm for wireless sensor network is presented in this paper. A compact encryption and decryption system using only four sharing S-Boxes is obtained, employing sharing between the encryption and decryption processes. Our design proposes use of composite field data path for the SubBytes and InvSubBytes transformations. With an implementation of the AES block cipher with Virtex Ⅱ Pro FPGA using0.13μm and 90nm process technology, our area optimized consumes 16.8k equivalent gates. The speed of this implementation is also reduced to 0.45Gbits/s. Compared with previous implementations, our design achieves significant low-cost area with acceptable throughput.展开更多

Additionally, given the limited technological resources (in term of energy, computation, bandwidth, and storage) of sensor nodes, security and privacy policies have to be combined with energy-aware algorithms and distributed processing of multimedia contents in WMSNs. To solve these problems in this paper, an energy efficient distributed steganography scheme, which combines steganography technique with the concept of distributed computing, is proposed for secure communication in WMSNs. The simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve considerable energy efficiency while assuring the communication security simultaneously.展开更多

The current study investigates whether college students＇ attitudes toward advertising on traditional media are different when online advertising is used, especially on Social Media Networking Sites （SMNSs）. Employing the concept of reciprocity （of replicating offline attitudes online） and the flow theory that relates one＇s concentration on an activity and its impact on other occurrences happening around him/her, 287 college students responded to a questionnaire on their perceptions of online advertising, their preferred SMNS, and the SMNS on which they would consider viewing an advertising message. The results showed that 57.8% of the participants avoid online advertising at all costs, which is similar to their offline perception of advertising. Some 42.2% reported that they may consider viewing online advertising if the attributes of relevance, interest, creativity, and interactivity are present, as in viral advertisement. In addition, among the four SMNSs reviewed--Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, and Linkedln--a majority of students indicated that Facebook is their preferred site for online advertising because it allows for creativity and they consider those messages credible, especially if their Facebook friends tagged, liked, or shared the advertisement.展开更多

In order to reduce the computational complexity for MD optimization, a time domain CFOs and CIRs estimation algorithm over the OFDMA based wireless multimedia sensor networks （WMSN） is proposed in this paper. In this algorithm, the receiver station can decouple the signal from every node by correlation based on specially designed training sequences, so that the MD optimization problem is simplified to an 1-D optimal problem. It is proved that the multiple CFOs can be identified from the correlation result using the phase shift of the consecutive training se- quences. Based on the CFOs estimation result, the CIRs can then he estimated according to the minimum mean square error （MMSE） criterion. The theoretic analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively decouple the signal from different user nodes and the bit error rate （BER） per- formance curves are close to the ideal estimation when the user number is not large.展开更多
