On the talent training mode of “new engineering” in local undergraduate colleges

Funding  source: Research on talent training mode of "new engineering" in local undergraduate colleges and universities (project code: 2019SJA2197) Abstract: With the development of China's new economy and emerging industries, new engineering construction comes into being. Facing the construction of new engineering, local undergraduate colleges and universities should deeply understand their own development trend, clarify the training mode of new engineering talents, and take the adjustment of specialty setting guided by regional industrial demand, the innovation of talent training mode based on the consensus of coordinated development, and the improvement of talent training quality as the main measures for local undergraduate colleges and universities to cultivate new engineering talents Key words: local; New engineering; Talent training mode DOI: 10.7176/JEP/12-33-15 Publication date: November 30th 202

PIANO: Proximity-based User Authentication on Voice-Powered Internet-of-Things Devices

Voice is envisioned to be a popular way for humans to interact with Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. We propose a proximity-based user authentication method (called PIANO) for access control on such voice-powered IoT devices. PIANO leverages the built-in speaker, microphone, and Bluetooth that voice-powered IoT devices often already have. Specifically, we assume that a user carries a personal voice-powered device (e.g., smartphone, smartwatch, or smartglass), which serves as the user's identity. When another voice-powered IoT device of the user requires authentication, PIANO estimates the distance between the two devices by playing and detecting certain acoustic signals; PIANO grants access if the estimated distance is no larger than a user-selected threshold. We implemented a proof-of-concept prototype of PIANO. Through theoretical and empirical evaluations, we find that PIANO is secure, reliable, personalizable, and efficient.Comment: To appear in ICDCS'1
