The Impact

With a deep connection to the internet, the controller area network (CAN) bus of intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) has suffered many network attacks. A deep situation awareness method is urgently needed to judge whether network attacks will occur in the future. However, traditional shallow methods cannot extract deep features from CAN data with noise to accurately detect attacks. To solve these problems, we developed a SDAE+Bi-LSTM based situation awareness algorithm for the CAN bus of ICVs, simply called SDBL. Firstly, the stacked denoising auto-encoder (SDAE) model was used to compress the CAN data with noise and extract the deep spatial features at a certain time, to reduce the impact of noise. Secondly, a bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) model was further built to capture the periodic features from two directions to enhance the accuracy of the future situation prediction. Finally, a threat assessment model was constructed to evaluate the risk level of the CAN bus. Extensive experiments also verified the improved performance of our SDBL algorithm.

Abstract Crack or crack-like anomaly is one of the major threats to the safety and structural integrity of oil and gas transmission pipelines. The crack threat is usually managed by hydrostatic test or regular in-line inspection (ILI). For a given crack ILI pipeline tally, operators need to identify critical anomalies, determine appropriate response time, and whether pressure restriction (derate) is required. Traditionally, a deterministic approach is used to determine the mitigation plan based on characteristic values of pipe properties, conservative crack sizing and crack growth rate, and further considering a minimum required safety factor. This study introduces a reliability-based approach to make the mitigation decision with full details. The annual probability of failure (POF) is evaluated for each reported crack anomaly by Monte Carlo simulation technique considering all the uncertainties associated with pipe geometry, material properties, crack size measurement, and assessment model error explicitly. Both environmental and cyclic fatigue load driven crack growth are considered following API RP 1176. A reliability-based mitigation threshold is proposed and calibrated against the deterministic minimum required safety factor for maintaining the system to a consistent safety level. Two case studies were conducted to demonstrate the advantages of the reliability-based assessment approach in this paper. Case Study #1 considers an NPS 20 transmission gas pipeline with more than 2000 ILI reported crack anomalies. Compared to the deterministic approach using conservative characteristic values, the reliability-based approach can reduce the number of required mitigation activities significantly without compromising safety. Case Study #2 assumes a severe crack defect on an NPS 34 liquid pipeline to demonstrate the impact of fatigue driven crack growth on POF. The POF of crack anomalies can be compared and combined with other threats, e.g. external corrosion, to evaluate the quantitative risk throughout pipeline systems. The proposed framework in this study could be used by operators to improve the crack assessment programs.

The increasing demand of humankind has caused a large number of land use changes, which pose a direct or indirect threat to the environment while promoting economic growth. The lack of risk-oriented land use changes may increase the disaster risk in the region. Therefore, how to study the relationship between land use change and disaster risk deserves attention. In this study, a research framework with quantitative relationship between land use change and disaster risk was constructed from the perspective of efficiency. The framework integrated land use change, disaster losses and environment variable (runoff increment) into a three-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) assessment model to dynamically evaluate the impact of land use changes on disasters. The main conclusions include: (I) after the influence of runoff increment and random error was excluded, the overall risk score of counties and cities in Taiwan is 0.643, which represents a relatively high level, indicating that land use changes have caused high disaster risk; and (II) the vulnerability of land development in each county and city can be obtained through the comprehensive score of disaster risk the amount of unused input. The results of this study can help government agencies to rank various types of land development and then determine the acceptable risk level and incorporate disaster risk into land development.

PurposeNowadays, connected vehicles are becoming quite complex systems which are made up of different devices. In such a vehicle, there are several electronic control units (ECUs) that represent basic units of computation. These ECUs communicate with each other over the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus protocol which ensures a high communication rate. Even though it is an efficient standard which provides communication for in-vehicle networks, it is prone to various cybersecurity attacks. This paper aims to present a systematic literature review (SLR) which focuses on potential attacks on CAN bus networks. Then, it surveys the solutions proposed to overcome these attacks. In addition, it investigates the validation strategies aiming to check their accuracy and correctness.Design/methodology/approachThe authors have adopted the SLR methodology to summarize existing research papers that focus on the potential attacks on CAN bus networks. In addition, they compare the selected papers by classifying them according to the adopted validation strategies. They identify also gaps in the existing literature and provide a set of open challenges that can significantly improve the existing works.FindingsThe study showed that most of the examined papers adopted the simulation as a validation strategy to imitate the system behavior and evaluate a set of performance criteria. Nevertheless, a little consideration has been given to the formal verification of the proposed systems.Originality/valueUnlike the existing surveys, this paper presents the first SLR that identifies local and remote security attacks that can compromise in-vehicle and inter-vehicle communications. Moreover, it compares the reviewed papers while focusing on the used validation strategies.

Considering the complexity and uncertainty of decision-making in the operating environment of an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV), this study proposes an autonomous decision-making method based on the dynamic influence diagram (DID) and expected utility theory. First, a threat assessment model is established for situation awareness of the UUV. Accordingly, a DID model is developed for autonomous decision-making of the UUV. Then, based on the threat assessment results for the UUV, the utility of each decision-making plan in the decision-making nodes is inferred and predicted. Subsequently, the principle of maximum expected utility is used to select an optimal autonomous decision-making plan. Finally, the effectiveness of the DID method is verified by simulation. Compared with the traditional expert systems, the DID system shows great adaptability and exhibits better solutions of dynamic decision problems under uncertainty.

The purpose of this article is to provide the basic model of Hofstede and Grays’ cultural values that relates the Hofstede’s cultural dimensions and Gray‘s accounting value. This article reviews some studies that prove the model and develop the research in the future. There are some evidences that link the Hofstede’s cultural values studies with the auditor’s judgment and decisions by developing a framework that categorizes the auditor’s judgments and decisions are most likely influenced by cross-cultural differences. The categories include risk assessment, risk decisions and ethical judgments. Understanding the impact of cultural factors on the practice of accounting and financial disclosure is important to achieve the harmonization of international accounting. Deep understanding about how the local values may affect the accounting practices and their impacts on the financial disclosure are important to ensure the international comparability of financial reporting. Gray’s framework (1988) expects how the culture may affect accounting practices at the national level. One area of the future studies will examine the impact of cultural dimensions to the values of accounting, auditing and decision making.
