Low-complexity, low-area computer architectures for cryptographic application in resource constrained environments

RCE (Resource Constrained Environment) is known for its stringent hardware design requirements. With the rise of Internet of Things (IoT), low-complexity and low-area designs are becoming prominent in the face of complex security threats. Two low-complexity, low-area cryptographic processors based on the ultimate reduced instruction set computer (URISC) are created to provide security features for wireless visual sensor networks (WVSN) by using field-programmable gate array (FPGA) based visual processors typically used in RCEs. The first processor is the Two Instruction Set Computer (TISC) running the Skipjack cipher. To improve security, a Compact Instruction Set Architecture (CISA) processor running the full AES with modified S-Box was created. The modified S-Box achieved a gate count reduction of 23% with no functional compromise compared to Boyar’s. Using the Spartan-3L XC3S1500L-4-FG320 FPGA, the implementation of the TISC occupies 71 slices and 1 block RAM. The TISC achieved a throughput of 46.38 kbps at a stable 24MHz clock. The CISA which occupies 157 slices and 1 block RAM, achieved a throughput of 119.3 kbps at a stable 24MHz clock. The CISA processor is demonstrated in two main applications, the first in a multilevel, multi cipher architecture (MMA) with two modes of operation, (1) by selecting cipher programs (primitives) and sharing crypto-blocks, (2) by using simple authentication, key renewal schemes, and showing perceptual improvements over direct AES on images. The second application demonstrates the use of the CISA processor as part of a selective encryption architecture (SEA) in combination with the millions instructions per second set partitioning in hierarchical trees (MIPS SPIHT) visual processor. The SEA is implemented on a Celoxica RC203 Vertex XC2V3000 FPGA occupying 6251 slices and a visual sensor is used to capture real world images. Four images frames were captured from a camera sensor, compressed, selectively encrypted, and sent over to a PC environment for decryption. The final design emulates a working visual sensor, from on node processing and encryption to back-end data processing on a server computer

PO-014 The effects of HIIT on ROS-AMPK- PGC-1α pathway in skeletal muscle and VO2max of ageing Wistar rats.

Objective To observe the 16 weeks of HIIT intervention on SOD,ROS and its related factors AMPK and oxidation capacity PGC-1α expression and the influence of the VO2max and its change rule in the process of the natural aging rats, To explore the correlation between the expression of ROS, AMPK and PGC-1αand the change of VO2max; Furthermore, it provides a theoretical basis for HIIT to delay the reduction of aerobic capacity in skeletal muscle ageing. Methods 58 male wistar rats(age：32 weeks) were selected and randomly divided into quiet group (C) and HIIT intervention group (H). All rats were fed in the barrier environment. Each group of rats entered the animal laboratory for a week of adaptive feeding and exercise. VO2max was tested and observed every two weeks in each group. Rats of group C don't exercise, group H at a rate of 50%, 70% and 90% VO2max corresponding alternation of 50 min/day, 5 days/week, for 16 weeks of exercise intervention, and according to the VO2max test results the exercise intensity. Both groups of rats in the intervention of 8 weeks, 16 weeks after the end of the 24 hours of materials, stripping rats soleus, SOD and content of ROS was tested by multifunctional enzyme mark, using western blot test the expression of AMPK and PGC-1α. VO2max, SOD, ROS test results and AMPK, PGC-1α, and relative expression data were analyzed using SPSS for one way ANOVA. Results The cardiopulmonary endurance of rats in group C and group H showed a decreasing trend in group C and group H during HIIT intervention, but the decrease trend in group H was slower than that in group C. 2. During 16 weeks aging , SOD expression of group C in the process of rendering first rise after falling, and expressed in 8 weeks SOD content was significantly lower than base value (P < 0.05), 16 weeks group C SOD levels higher than the base state. After 16 weeks of intervention, the expression of SOD in group H was relatively flat in the first 8 weeks, and the trend was in 8-16 weeks, and was significantly lower than 8 weeks in 16 weeks (P < 0.05). 3.The ROS content was significantly higher than basic state in 8 weeks and 16 weeks in the intervention process (P<0.05), and the ROS content was significantly higher than 8 weeks (P<0.05) at 16 weeks. The ROS content of group C and group H was significantly higher than that in the group at 8 weeks (P < 0.05). 4.The AMPK content in group C was significantly lower than that of the basic value (P<0.05), and the AMPK content in group H was significantly higher than that in group C (P<0.05). 5.After the intervention of 16 weeks, the content of PGC-1α in group C and group H showed a decrease trend and significantly lower than the basic value (P<0.05), but the content of group H was significantly higher than that of group C (P<0.05). 6.The changes of AMPK, PGC-1α and cardiopulmonary endurance were the same in all groups during the intervention. Conclusions 1.16 weeks of HIIT can effectively delay the decrease of SOD content in the aging rats, thus inhibiting the accumulation of ROS in the body. 2.16 weeks of HIIT intervention can effectively delay the expression of VO2max and AMPK and PGC-1α in aging rats. 3.16 weeks HIIT may delay the decrease of AMPK-PGC1 protein expression by inhibiting the accumulation of skeletal muscle ROS in the aging rats, thus inhibiting the decrease of VO2max

PO-082 16-Week high intensity interval training does not alter LKB1 and AMPKα protein in Rats Liver

Objective Liver, as one of the most important organs involved in lipids and glucose metabolism, yet no study has examined the response of liver kinase B1 (LKB1) and AMP-activated protein kinase α(AMPKα) signaling after high intensity interval training. This study aims to evaluate the effect of 16-week high intensity interval training intervention on the expression of LKB1、AMPKα in liver of aging rats. Methods 8 -month-old male Wistar rats（n=40）were randomly divided into control group (C) and HIIT group (H). Group H with 70%-90%-50%VO2max intensity training for 50min/ day, 5 days / week, lasted for 16 weeks. Rats were killed on 0, 8 and 16 weeks. We examined the protein expression of LKB1 and AMPKα in liver. Proteins were analyzed by western blot analysis. Data are mean±SD; for ANOVA, p<0.05 was significant. Results The AMPKα levels in group C and group H increased with time and there was no significant difference between the groups. The content of LKB1 in group C and group H both increased first and then decreased, but there was no significant difference between the groups. Conclusions 16-week high intensity interval training intervention had no effect on LKB1, AMPKα protein expression in aging rats

Fabrication and Antibacterial Performance of Pea Protein Isolate/Pullulan/Allicin Composite Electrospun Nanofibers

Using pea protein isolate (PPI) and pullulan (PUL) as raw materials and allicin (AC) as an antibacterial substance, nanofiber materials were prepared by electrospinning technology. The influence of allicin concentration on the structural and morphological characteristics, diameter distribution and antibacterial effects of nanofibers were investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated that allicin was wrapped in the composite nanofibers. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that spherical structures of different sizes appeared around the nanofibers due to the addition of allicin. The size of the spherical structures increased (P < 0.05) with an increase in allicin concentration, while the nanofiber diameter gradually decreased (P < 0.05). With increasing allicin concentration up to 15%, the elastic modulus and tensile strength of the composite nanofibers gradually increased (P < 0.05), and the elongation at break gradually decreased (P < 0.05). Additionally, the composite nanofibers with more than 10% allicin exhibited an obvious bacteriostatic effect, and it was strongest at allicin concentrations of 15% and 20%, with inhibition zone diameters of 16.5 and 12.8 mm against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. This research will provide data support and a theoretical basis for the development and application of new green food packaging nanomaterials
