The cloud storage provides flexible data storage services for data owners to remotely outsource their data, and reduces data storage operations and management costs for data owners. These outsourced data bring data security concerns to the data owner due to malicious deletion or corruption by the cloud service provider. Data integrity verification is an important way to check outsourced data integrity. However, the existing data verification schemes only consider the case that a verifier launches multiple data verification challenges, and neglect the verification overhead of multiple data verification challenges launched by multiple verifiers at a similar time. In this case, the duplicate data in multiple challenges are verified repeatedly so that verification resources are consumed in vain. We propose a duplicate data verification algorithm based on multiple verifiers and multiple challenges to reduce the verification overhead. The algorithm dynamically schedules the multiple verifiers’ challenges based on verification time and the frequent itemsets of duplicate verification data in challenge sets by applying FP-Growth algorithm, and computes the batch proofs of frequent itemsets. Then the challenges are split into two parts, i.e., duplicate data and unique data according to the results of data extraction. Finally, the proofs of duplicate data and unique data are computed and combined to generate a complete proof of every original challenge. Theoretical analysis and experiment evaluation show that the algorithm reduces the verification cost and ensures the correctness of the data integrity verification by flexible batch data verification.

The verification of data integrity is an urgent topic in remote data storage environments with the wide deployment of cloud data storage services. Many traditional verification algorithms focus on the block-oriented verification to resolve the dispute of dynamic data integrity between the data owners and the storage service providers. However, these algorithms scarcely pay attention to the data verification charge and the users` verification experience. The users more concern about the availability of accessed files rather than data blocks. Moreover, the data verification charge limits the number of checked data in each verification. Therefore, we propose a mixed verification protocol to verify the data integrity, which rapidly locates the corrupted files by the file-oriented verification, and then identifies the corrupted blocks in these files by the block-oriented verification. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that the protocol reduces the cost of the metadata computation and transmission relative to the traditional block-oriented verification at the expense of little cost of additional file-oriented metadata computation and storage at the data owner. Both the opportunity of data extracted and the scope of suspicious data are optimized to improve the verification efficiency under the same verification cost.

Cloud storage's elastic expansibility not only provides flexible services for data owners to store their data remotely, but also reduces storage operation and management costs of their data sharing. The data outsourced remotely in the storage space of cloud service provider also brings data security concerns about data integrity. Data integrity verification has become an important technology for detecting the integrity of remote shared data. However, users without data access rights to verify the data integrity will cause unnecessary overhead to data owner and cloud service provider. Especially malicious users who constantly launch data integrity verification will greatly waste service resources. Since data owner is a consumer purchasing cloud services, he needs to bear both the cost of data storage and that of data verification. This paper proposes a verification control algorithm in data integrity verification for remotely outsourced data. It designs an attribute-based encryption verification control algorithm for multiple verifiers. Moreover, data owner and cloud service provider construct a common access structure together and generate a verification sentinel to verify the authority of verifiers according to the access structure. Finally, since cloud service provider cannot know the access structure and the sentry generation operation, it can only authenticate verifiers with satisfying access policy to verify the data integrity for the corresponding outsourced data. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves fine-grained access control to multiple verifiers for the data integrity verification.

Energy-Efficient Algorithm for Assigning Verification Tasks in Cloud Storage

( Guangwei Xu ),( Zhifeng Sun ),( Cairong Yan ),( Xiujin Shi ),( Yue Li ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2017 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.11 No.1

Mobile Cloud Computing has become a promising computing platform. It moves users` data to the centralized large data centers for users` mobile devices to conveniently access. Since the data storage service may not be fully trusted, many public verification algorithms are proposed to check the data integrity. However, these algorithms hardly consider the huge computational burden for the verifiers with resource-constrained mobile devices to execute the verification tasks. We propose an energy-efficient algorithm for assigning verification tasks (EEAVT) to optimize the energy consumption and assign the verification tasks by elastic and customizable ways. The algorithm prioritizes verification tasks according to the expected finish time of the verification, and assigns the number of checked blocks referring to devices` residual energy and available operation time. Theoretical analysis and experiment evaluation show that our algorithm not only shortens the verification finish time, but also decreases energy consumption, thus improving the efficiency and reliability of the verification.

Xuemin Zhang,Zenggang Xiong,Guangwei Wang,Conghuan Ye,Fang Xu 보안공학연구지원센터 2015 International Journal of Smart Home Vol.9 No.5

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) constructs applications by publishing services in an open network environment. In network environment individual service changes highly dynamically, it is required the system based on services to adapt to this change. But the current service management in network environment doesn’t have a good, unified management mode, management mechanism, service and quality control system, and lacks of theoretical foundation to express formal service system. In this paper, a service management framework is designed. A mechanism and method based on strategy and dynamic network environment service management are proposed. The method can effectively solve the problem of dynamic service management in network environment, and is widely used in dynamic service management based on Web services.

Fabrication Tolerance of InGaAsP/InP-Air-Aperture Micropillar Cavities as 1.55-μm Quantum Dot Single-Photon Sources

Shuai Huang,Xiumin Xie,Qiang Xu,Xinhua Zhao,Guangwei Deng,Qiang Zhou,You Wang,Hai-Zhi Song 한국광학회 2020 Current Optics and Photonics Vol.4 No.6

A practical single photon source for fiber-based quantum information processing is still lacking. As a possible 1.55-µm quantum-dot single photon source, an InGaAsP/InP-air-aperture micropillar cavity is investigated in terms of fabrication tolerance. By properly modeling the processing uncertainty in layer thickness, layer diameter, surface roughness and the cavity shape distortion, the fabrication imperfection effects on the cavity quality are simulated using a finite-difference time-domain method. It turns out that, the cavity quality is not significantly changing with the processing precision, indicating the robustness against the imperfection of the fabrication processing. Under thickness error of ±2 nm, diameter uncertainty of ±2%, surface roughness of ±2.5 nm, and sidewall inclination of 0.5°, which are all readily available in current material and device fabrication techniques, the cavity quality remains good enough to form highly efficient and coherent 1.55-µm single photon sources. It is thus implied that a quantum dot contained InGaAsP/InP-air-aperture micropillar cavity is prospectively a practical candidate for single photon sources applied in a fiber-based quantum information network.

Atomic force microscopy has been employed to study the growth behaviour on the {101} facets of L-Arg ․ CF3COOH crystals grown at 25℃ at a supersaturation of σ = 0.2. Nucleation on the wider step terraces and a large nucleus composed of two separate 2D nuclei were observed for the first time. For the region where blocking occurs convex pattern are found in the macrosteps, which correspond to the sites of the impurities that act as pinning points hindering step propagation. Finally, liquid inclusions will be generated because of disparate formation mechanisms.

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is an emerging therapeutic strategy with the potential to modulate disease associated proteins that have previously been considered undruggable, by employing the host destructionmachinery. The exploration and discovery of cellular degradation pathways, including but not limited toproteasomes and lysosome pathways as well as their degraders, is an area of active research. Since the conceptof proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) was introduced in 2001, the paradigm of TPD has been greatlyexpanded and moved from academia to industry for clinical translation, with small-molecule TPD being particularlyrepresented. As an indispensable part of TPD, biological TPD (bioTPD) technologies including peptide-, fusionprotein-, antibody-, nucleic acid-based bioTPD and others have also emerged and undergone significantadvancement in recent years, demonstrating unique and promising activities beyond those of conventional small molecule TPD. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in bioTPD technologies, summarize theircompositional features and potential applications, and briefly discuss their drawbacks. Moreover, we present somestrategies to improve the delivery efficacy of bioTPD, addressing their challenges in further clinical development.

Conghuan Ye,Zenggang Xiong,Yaoming Ding,Xuemin Zhang,Guangwei Wang,Fang Xu 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Security and Its Applicat Vol.10 No.5

Digital fingerprinting is a special digital watermarking technology that can deter legal user to redistribute multimedia content to others. With traitor tracing, it can detect illegal users who use multimedia content illegally. However, collusion attack can avoid some illegal users being detected. With different fingerprinted copies, collusion attack can produce a new colluded fingerprinted copy for get rid of the fingerprint information from the colluded copy, so digital fingerprinting technique should deter collusion attacks. In order to improve the performance of new digital fingerprinting technique in future, this paper presents a new collusion attack approach based on interpolation. The proposed interpolation collusion attack scheme comes from the idea of image fusion. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed interpolation collusion attack method outperform average attack and maximum attack.

In this paper, a series of injectable in situ forming chitosan-based hydrogels were prepared by chemicalcrosslinking of chitosan and genipin with the cooperation of ionic bonds between chitosan and sodium salts at roomtemperature. Four hydrogels (A, B, C, and D) were obtained by mixing chitosan, genipin and a sodium salt of trisodiumphosphate (Na3PO4·12H2O), sodium sulfate (Na2SO4), sodium sulfite (Na2SO3), or sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3)and examined for their characteristics, morphology, and rheological properties. Their cell viability assaysexhibited low toxicity and the localized in situ gel formation was detected after subcutaneous injections in rat. Curcuminwhich possesses many pharmaceutical potentials but has low bioavailability, was chosen as a drug model. Invitro curcumin release profiles exhibit sustained release properties with initial burst release for all hydrogels withabout 3 to 6 times higher cumulative release than other gel controls. The results of this study demonstrate that ourhydrogels have a potential as local curcumin carriers.
