Reconciliation protocol is used in quantum key distribution to reverse the error bits. Cascade is the most famous reconciliation protocol. It uses BINARY to correct errors and traces back into history records to find another error. In this paper, we implement the Cascade protocol and carry out some experiments for different BER, where BER is bit error rate for qubits. From the result of experiments,...
To develop a practical procedure for cryopreservation of adult bovine testis tissue, the impacts of three cryoprotectans and their concentrations, as well as varying thawing temperatures, on the cell viability of bovine testis tissue after freezing/thawing were examined. The highest testicular cell viabilities came from the media containing dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO, 85.3±1.2%), propylene glycol (PG,...
Cloud computing opens a new area of supplement, consumption, and delivery framework for IT services. Customers could be able to order Virtual Applications through the cloud. To reduce the latency time, the cloud service providers implement some strategies (e.g., cloudfront service [1]) to speed up the applications delivery. However, these strategies do not consider the profit of application providers...
Most researchers encountered the following two problems when working with real Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs): (1) Sensor nodes cannot satisfy application requirements even though the nominal sensing/transmission rates of these nodes are much higher than required. (2) In a WSN deployed in a large area, it is difficult or infeasible to get runtime performance evaluation of sensor nodes. We found out...
Different applications in the network have different sensitivity for the certain QoS parameters. The existing mechanisms cannot modify the packet loss policy exactly according to the needs of QoS parameters. Therefore, the network will not maximize its overall efficiency. This paper proposes a novel cognitive approach for QoS. It classifies the applications by various combinations of the QoS parameters...
Security protocols are hard to design, even under the assumption of perfect cryptography. This is especially true when a protocol involves different timing aspects such as timestamps, timeout, delays and a set of timing constraints. In this paper, we propose a methodology for modeling and analyzing security protocols that are aware of timing aspects. We develop a formalism for modeling security protocols...
The conventional cooperative protocols have to face some problems in practical broadcast and multicast systems because feedback channel is unavailable. An adaptive cooperative relay protocol, which can be adopted in future broadcast systems, is proposed in this paper. The outage probability performance of this protocol is analyzed over Nakagami-m fading channel, and the asymptotic expression of outage...
Rights sharing in DRM system has long been a challenge and a key technical issue. In this paper, a novel rights sharing scheme using digital ticket is proposed. The user who possesses the right object to certain DRM protected content can acquire tickets which act as ownership certifications of the content from right issuer in a controlled manner, and then deliver the tickets to the others. Other user...
The population protocol model has emerged as an elegant paradigm for describing mobile ad hoc networks, consisting of a number of nodes that interact with each other to carry out a computation. One essential property of self-stabilizing population protocols is that all nodes must eventually converge to the correct output value, with respect to all possible initial configurations. It has been shown...
This paper deals with the consensus control of a multi-agent system with state and measurement disturbances, and proposes a distributed dynamic output feedback protocol. By defining an appropriate controlled output, the consensus control problem is reformulated as an Hinfin control problem. Using Hinfin techniques, a sufficient condition in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is given to ensure...
This paper is devoted to the consensus control for a network of autonomous agents with high-dimension linear coupling dynamics and subject to external disturbances. By transforming the consensus control problem into an Hinfin control problem, we propose a distributed state feedback protocol, and obtain conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to ensure the consensus with a prescribed...
We previously reported the fabrication and the verification of novel biomolecular transistors where electrical conductivity of a ldquopolyaniline nanowiresrdquo channel is controlled by antigen-antibody interactions. In this paper, we present a simulation framework for analyzing the reliability of biosensor circuits constructed by using these biomolecular transistors. At the core of the proposed framework...
This paper is mainly devoted to the second-order consensus problem of multiple agents with different significant inertias in directed networks with fixed and switching balanced topologies. On the assumption that each agent knows the desired constant velocity, if the fixed interaction digraph G is weakly connected, then all agents achieve consensus on their positions with their velocities converging...
The storage and display of Chinese character data and the battery life are two bottle-necks of a Chinese display smart card which is one kind of super smart cards. This paper presented a new idea to realize the Chinese display which was a practice of embedded font solution. A die-form regular MCU, a smart card MCU and a graphical LCD controller (LCD driver) provided the main functions of the system...
