    No full text
    [[abstract]]Advances in information technology (IT) and operation technology (OT) accelerate the development of manufacturing systems (MS) consisting of integrated circuits (ICs), modules, and systems, toward Industry 4.0. However, the existing MS does not support comprehensive identity forensics for the whole system, limiting its ability to adapt to equipment authentication difficulties. Furthermore, the development of trust imposed during their crosswise collaborations with suppliers and other manufacturers in the supply chain is poorly maintained. In this paper, a trust chain framework with a comprehensive identification mechanism is implemented for the designed MS system, which is based and created on the private blockchain in conjunction with decentralized database systems to boost the flexibility, traceability, and identification of the IC-module-system. Practical implementations are developed using a functional prototype. First, the decentralized application (DApp) and the smart contracts are proposed for constructing the new trust chain under the proposed comprehensive identification mechanism by using blockchain technology. In addition, the blockchain addresses of IC, module, and system are automatically registered to InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), individually. In addition, their corresponding hierarchical CID (content identifier) values are organized by using Merkle DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph), which is employed via the hierarchical content identifier mechanism (HCIDM) proposed in this paper. Based on insights obtained from this analysis, the trust chain based on HCIDM can be applied to any MS system, for example, this trust chain could be used to prevent the counterfeit modules and ICs employed in the monitoring system of a semiconductor factory environment. The evaluation results show that the proposed scheme could work in practice under the much lower costs, compared to the public blockchain, with a total cost of 0.002094 Ether. Finally, this research is developed an innovation trust chain mechanism that could be provided the system-level security for any MS toward Industrial 4.0 in order to meet the requirements of both manufacturing innovation and product innovation in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

    [[abstract]]Industrial Internet of Things is focused to improve the performance of smart factories through automation and scalable functions. IoT paradigm, information and communication technology, and intelligent computing are assimilated as a single entity for industrial automation, optimization, sharing and security, and scalability. In a view of the security requirement in smart industry data sharing through IoT, this article introduces a blockchain-assisted secure data sharing (BSDS) model. This model is responsible for administering inbound and outbound security in data acquisition and dissemination. The inbound acquisition is first classified using recurrent learning to identify adverse sequences in data dissemination. In the outbound security measure, end-to-end authentication based on the blockchain information of reputation and sequence differentiation is engaged. The blockchain paradigm controls the data gathering and dissemination instances through the classification and integrity verification in both the industry and processing terminals. For this purpose, the functions of the blockchain are riven for data gathering and monitoring in the smart industry whereas integrity and sequence verification is performed by the nonmining blockchain terminal in the processing environment. The integrated security measures are capable of maximizing the response rate by confining false alarm progression, failure rate, and time delay. Statistical analysis shows that the BSDS achieves a 5.67% high response rate and reduces the failure rate by 2.14%. Further, it achieves 3.12%, maximizes response rate by 6.63%, and reduces delay by 11.91%, respectively

    [[abstract]]Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks remain challenging to mitigate in the existing systems, including in-home networks that comprise different Internet of Things (IoT) devices. In this article, we present a DDoS traffic detection model that uses a boosting method of logistic model trees for different IoT device classes. Specifically, a different version of the model will be generated and applied for each device class since the characteristics of the network traffic from each device class may have subtle variation(s). As a case study, we explain how devices in a typical smart home environment can be categorized into four different classes (and in our context, Class 1—very high level of traffic predictability, Class 2—high level of traffic predictability, Class 3—medium level of traffic predictability, and Class 4—low level of traffic predictability). Findings from our evaluations show that the accuracy of our proposed approach is between 99.92% and 99.99% for these four device classes. In other words, we demonstrate that we can use device classes to help us more effectively detect DDoS traffic

    PCNNCEC: Efficient and Privacy-Preserving Convolutional Neural Network Inference Based on Cloud-Edge-Client Collaboration

    [[abstract]]Deploying convolutional neural network (CNN) inference on resource-constrained devices remains a remarkable challenge for industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Although the cloud computing shows great promise in machine learning training and prediction, outsourcing data to remote cloud always incurs privacy risk and high latency. Therefore, we design a new framework for efficient and privacy-preserving CNN inference based on cloud-edge-client collaboration (namedPCNNCEC). In PCNNCEC, the model of cloud and the data of client in IIoT are split into two shares and sent to two non-colluded edge servers. By applying the arithmetic secret sharing and pre-computation of beaver's triplets, the two edge servers can jointly calculate the predicting results without learning anything about the model and data. To speed up the pre-computation of offline phase and not sacrifice security, the task of triplets generation is delegated to the cloud, so that the edge servers do not require frequent interactions to generate triplets themselves or introducing additional trusted party. The experimental results show the proposed private comparison protocol achieves a better tradeoff between low latency and high throughput, when it is compared with garbled circuit based protocols and other secret sharing based protocols. Additionally, the benchmarks conducted on realistic MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets demonstrate that PCNNCEC costs less communication and runtime than two recently related schemes under the same security level

    PPRP: Preserving-Privacy Route Planning Scheme in VANETs

    No full text
    [[abstract]]Route planning helps a vehicle to share a message with the roadside units (RSUs) on its path in advance, which greatly speeds the authentication between the vehicle and the RSUs when the vehicle enters the RSUs’ coverage. In addition, since only a small amount of necessary information needs to be shared between the vehicle and the RSUs, route planning can reduce the storage overhead of the vehicle’s on-board unit (OBU) and the RSUs. However, the message sharing requires the assistance of the certification authority (CA), which will lead CA easily to obtain the vehicle’s planning route. Although CA knows the vehicle’s registration information and helps the vehicle to communicate with RSUs, it is unacceptable that the path of their vehicle is obtained by CA for most drivers. In fact, vehicle’s sensitive information such as planning route, starting time, stop place, should be privacy for others including CA. Inspired with the method of oblivious transfer, a preserving-privacy route planning scheme in VANETs is proposed in this article, in which, a vehicle deduces the information of RSUs on its path with the help of CA, while CA knows nothing about which RSUs’ information has been deduced by the vehicle. Later, fast authentication or other service is easily achieved between the vehicle and the RSUs (V2R) with the pre-shared information. After V2R authentication, vehicles could easily communicate with adjacent vehicles with the help of RSUs (V2V). Finally, compared with related schemes, performance evaluation illustrates the proposed scheme is better in terms of time consumption

    Regulated Two-Dimension Deep Convolutional Neural Network-Based Power Quality Classifier for Microgrid

    [[abstract]]Due to the penetration of renewable energy and load variation in the microgrid, the diagnosis of power quality disturbances (PQD) is important to the operation stability and safety of the microgrid system. Once the power imbalance is present between the generation and the load demand, the fundamental frequency would deviate from the nominal value. As a result, the performance of the power quality classifier based on the neural network would be deteriorated since the deviation of fundamental frequency is not taken into account. In this paper, the regulated two-dimensional (2D) deep convolutional neural network (CNN)-based approach for PQD classification is proposed. In the data preprocessing stage, the IEC-based synchronizer is introduced to detect the deviation of fundamental frequency. In this way, the 2D grayscale image serving as the input of the deep CNN classifier can be accurately regulated. The obtained 2D image can effectively preserve information and waveform characteristics of the PQD signal. The experiment is implemented with datasets containing 14 different categories of PQD. According to this result, it is revealed that the regulated 2D deep CNN can improve the effectiveness of PQD classification in a real-time manner. Furthermore, the proposed method outperforms the methods in previous studies according to the field verification

So, we used Nitrogen ion implantation for the Enhancement mode device to turn it off normally. This study provides a new, mass-manufacturable, low-cost ion implantation approach for transforming D-Mode AlGaN/GaN transistors into E-mode. We transformed a D-Mode calibrated transistor into a normally off device using nitrogen implantation at a 300 KeV energy, which gave bandgap energy above the Fermi level, utilizing TCAD simulations Furthermore, the altered threshold voltage (Vth) was obtained using varying nitrogen implantation dosage. Because of impact ionization, at room temperature the E-mode AlGaN/GaN HEMT displayed 127.4 breakdown voltage, with the positive temperature coefficient (3 × 10−3 K −1). The average gain of drain current with 45.3% was shown by E-Mode AlGaN, GaN device in the current work, which supports an investigation of transfer characteristics. As a result, the suggested approach permitted the modelling of 100μm-wide device with the mobility of 1487 cm2V-1s-1 and the drain saturation current of 1.4 A/mm at 4 V. The benefits for the suggested approach in terms of performance and processing are summarized here
