Dynamic response analysis of rutting resistance performance of high modulus asphalt concrete pavement
In order to systematically study the rutting resistance performance of High-Modulus Asphalt Concrete (HMAC) pavements, a finite element method model of HMAC pavement was established using ABAQUS software. Based on the viscoelasticity theory of asphalt, the stress and deformation distribution characteristics of HMAC pavement were studied and compared to conventional asphalt pavement under moving loads. Then, the pavement temperature field model was established to study the temperature variation and the thermal stress in HMAC pavement. Finally, under the condition of continuous temperature variation, the creep behavior and permanent deformation of HMAC pavement were investigated. The results showed that under the action of moving loads, the strain and displacement generated in HMAC pavement were lower than those in conventional asphalt pavement. The upper surface layer was most obviously affected by outside air temperature, resulting in maximum thermal stress. Lastly, under the condition of continuous temperature change, HMAC pavement could greatly reduce the deformation of asphalt material in each surface layer compared to conventional asphalt pavement
Performance analysis of a security architecture for active networks in Java
Internacional Association of Science and Technology for Development - IASTED, Benalmadena, Spain: 8-10 Septiembre, 2003.Active network technology supports the deployment and execution on the fly of new active services, without interrupting the network operation. Active networks are
composed of special nodes (named Active Router) that are able to execute active code to offer the active services. This technology introduces some security threats that must be solved using a security architecture. We have developed a security architecture (ROSA) for an active network platform (SARA). Java has been used as
programming language in order to provide portability, but it imposes some performance limitations. This paper analyses the penalty of using Java and proposes some mechanisms to improve the performance of cryptographic
implementations in Java.Publicad
Securing Internet of Things with Lightweight IPsec
Real-world deployments of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require
secure communication. It is important that a receiver is able to verify that sensor
data was generated by trusted nodes. In some cases it may also be necessary
to encrypt sensor data in transit. Recently, WSNs and traditional IP networks
are more tightly integrated using IPv6 and 6LoWPAN. Available IPv6 protocol
stacks can use IPsec to secure data exchange. Thus, it is desirable to extend
6LoWPAN such that IPsec communication with IPv6 nodes is possible. It is
beneficial to use IPsec because the existing end-points on the Internet do not
need to be modified to communicate securely with the WSN. Moreover, using
IPsec, true end-to-end security is implemented and the need for a trustworthy
gateway is removed.
In this paper we provide End-to-End (E2E) secure communication between
an IP enabled sensor nodes and a device on traditional Internet. This is the
first compressed lightweight design, implementation, and evaluation of 6LoWPAN
extension for IPsec on Contiki. Our extension supports both IPsec's Authentication
Header (AH) and Encapsulation Security Payload (ESP). Thus,
communication endpoints are able to authenticate, encrypt and check the integrity
of messages using standardized and established IPv6 mechanisms
A Secure Cooperative Sensing Protocol for Cognitive Radio Networks
Cognitive radio networks sense spectrum occupancy
and manage themselves to operate in unused bands without disturbing licensed users. Spectrum sensing is more accurate if jointly performed by several reliable nodes. Even though cooperative sensing is an active area of research, the secure
authentication of local sensing reports remains unsolved, thus empowering false results. This paper presents a distributed protocol based on digital signatures and hash functions, and an
analysis of its security features. The system allows determining a final sensing decision from multiple sources in a quick and secure way.Las redes de radio cognitiva detectora de espectro se las arreglan para operar en las nuevas bandas sin molestar a los usuarios con licencia.
