The reengineering of power grid networks is a necessary step that allow us to pass to the next generation of Distributed Power Networks. The frequent use of alternative green energies demand for better equipped networks including elements of smart grids, newer sensors, data transmission capabilities and extensive use of optical fiber. All these efforts implies higher costs, flexibility and scalability...
Robotic swarms have a great potential to solve in a simple way, without the need for a central controller, a wide range of difficult real-world problems, such as transportation, search and rescue missions etc. While there are important results in what regards the emergence of complex behaviors from very simple interacting robots, the security of robotic swarms remains a problem which did not get the...
In this paper, we present a new formal method to analyze cryptographic protocols statically for the property of secrecy. It consists in inspecting the level of security of every component in the protocol and making sure that it does not diminish during its life cycle. If yes, it concludes that the protocol keeps its secret inputs. We analyze in this paper an amended version of the Woo-Lam protocol...
Usage of wireless sensor networks in various applications such as home automation, intelligent cars and infrastructures, military environment and critical factory monitoring and control is constantly increasing. WSN security is a real challenge for researchers and industry specialists since WSN are now used even in critical environments. In this paper the authors will assess the security risks of...
This work describes a system based on a web application that allows the remote execution of IEC 61499 function blocks using the input parameters entered by a user in the web interface. The results obtained from executing the function block are sent to the field device using simple communication interfaces. The system is developed based on a hierarchical architecture that defines the components interconnections,...
