The work suggests a unique data security protocol for trusted online validation of e-documents like university certificates to confirm its credibility on different aspects. The idea reliably validates such e-documents from both the issuing authority and incumbent perspectives by strongly complying the security challenges like authentication, confidentiality, integrity and non-repudiations. At the very beginning, the parent institute physically issues the client copyright signature to the incumbent and stores this signature and biometric fingerprint of the incumbent on the server database. Additionally, the server secretly fabricates ownership signatures of parent institute and concern officer both within the e-document and this certified e-document is kept on the server database. Importantly, these signature fabrications are governed by self-defined hash computations on incumbent registration and certificate number respectively. Next, the server transmits this signed e-document to the client after a successful login by the client. Now client conceals shared copyright signature and taken thumb impression of the incumbent separately within this received e-document. Critically, these client-side signature castings are employed through self-defined hash computations on the incumbent name and obtained marks respectively. Finally, this authenticated e-document is validated at the server end by sensing all authentic signatures from it through those same identical hash operations. For stronger authenticity each signature is concealed by tracing its valid or authentic circular orientation of fragment sequences and embedding locations both derived from respective hash operations. Also, each signature is dispersed in non-overlapping manners on each separate region of the e-document promoting better signature recovery. Additional robustness is further injected with variable encoding of signature bits on different transformed pixel byte components of the e-Certificate image. Overall, the scheme confirms significant performance enhancements over exiting approaches with exhaustive simulation results on image data hiding aspects and their standardized comparisons

Abstract. Image processing of X-ray-computed polychromatic cone-beam micro-tomography (μXCT) data of geological samples mainly involves artefact reduction and phase segmentation. For the former, the main beam-hardening (BH) artefact is removed by applying a best-fit quadratic surface algorithm to a given image data set (reconstructed slice), which minimizes the BH offsets of the attenuation data points from that surface. A Matlab code for this approach is provided in the Appendix. The final BH-corrected image is extracted from the residual data or from the difference between the surface elevation values and the original grey-scale values. For the segmentation, we propose a novel least-squares support vector machine (LS-SVM, an algorithm for pixel-based multi-phase classification) approach. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed on BH-corrected and uncorrected samples to show that BH correction is in fact an important prerequisite for accurate multi-phase classification. The combination of the two approaches was thus used to classify successfully three different more or less complex multi-phase rock core samples.

Based on control equations in fluid dynamics, the main thought of oil mist process for cold heading machine is proposed according to the idea of green manufacturing. The computation fluid dynamics (CFD) software is applied to simulate the multi-phase oil mist flow in control box. The simulation results give some figures including distribution and stream line path of multi-phase flow of oil mist in the control box.

Spectral imaging in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyzer has the potential to be a powerful tool for chemical phase identification, but the large data sets have, in the past, proved too large to efficiently analyze. In the present work, we describe the application of a new automated, unbiased, multivariate statistical analysis technique to very large X-ray spectral image data sets. The method, based in part on principal components analysis, returns physically accurate (all positive) component spectra and images in a few minutes on a standard personal computer. The efficacy of the technique for microanalysis is illustrated by the analysis of complex multi-phase materials, particulates, a diffusion couple, and a single-pixel-detection problem.

Ideally, secure transmission of medical image data is one of the major challenges in health sector. The National Health Information Network has to protect the data in confidential manner. Storage is also one of the basic concern along with secure transmission. In this paper we propose an algorithm that supports confidentiality, authentication and integrity implementation of the scrambled data before transmitting on the communication medium. Before communication the data is compressed while keeping data encrypted. The research work demonstrate with simulation results. The results shows that the proposed work effectively maintains confidentiality, authentication and integrity. The experimental results evaluated medical image quality like PSNR, MSE, SC, and NAEetc.

Resonant clocking technologies provide clock networks with improved frequency, jitter and power dissipation characteristics, however, often require novel automation routines. Resonant rotary clocking technology, for instance, entails multi-phase and nonzero clock skew operation and supports latch-based design. This paper studies the effects of multi-phase synchronization schemes on the minimum clock period for rotary-clock-synchronized circuits, which necessitate the application of clock skew scheduling and employ level-sensitive registers. In experimentation, single, dual, three- and four-phase clocking schemes generated by rotary clock synchronization are applied to a suite of level-sensitive-transformed ISCAS'89 benchmarks. Average clock period improvements of 30.3%, 24.8%, 17.7% and 12.0%, respectively, are observed on average compared to the flip-flop based, zero clock skew circuits. As the number of clock phases increases, smaller improvements are observed due to lesser overall effectiveness of the complementary effects of clock skew scheduling and time borrowing. It is shown, however, that for some circuits (23% of the benchmarks), multi-phase synchronization leads to significant performance benefits in operating frequency.

Mismatch and parasitic effects of bridge capacitors in successive-approximation-register analog-to-digital converter’s (SAR-ADC) split capacitor digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) cause a significant performance deterioration. This paper presents a nonlinearity analysis based on an analytical model, and a modified calibration method utilizing a pre-bias bridge capacitor is accordingly proposed. The proposed method, which uses three-segment split capacitor DAC structure, can effectively eliminate over-calibration error caused by conventional structure. To verify the technique, a 14-bit SAR-ADC has been designed in 0.35-[Formula: see text]m 2P4M CMOS process with the PIP capacitor, and the simulation results show the method can further improve ADC performance.

The authors present the key security challenges and solutions on the Cloud with the help of literature reviews and an experimental model created on OPNET that is simulated to produce useful statistics to establish the approach that the Cloud computing service providers should take to provide optimal security and compliance. The literature recommends the concept of unified threat management for ensuring secured services on the Cloud. Through the simulation results, the authors demonstrate that UTM may not be a feasible approach to security implementation as it may become a bottleneck for the application Clouds. The fundamental benefits of Cloud computing (resources on demand and high elasticity) may be diluted if UTMs do not scale up effectively as per the traffic loads on the application Clouds. Moreover, it is not feasible for application Clouds to absorb the performance degradation for security and compliance because UTM will not be a total solution for security and compliance. Applications also share the vulnerabilities just like the systems, which will be out of UTM Cloud’s control.

Different Parts

The issues related to network data security were identified shortly after the inception of the first wired network. Initial protocols relied heavily on obscurity as the main tool for security provisions. Hacking into a wired network requires physically tapping into the wire link on which the data is being transferred. Both these factors seemed to work hand in hand and made secured communication somewhat possible using simple protocols. Then came the wireless network which radically changed the field and associated environment. How do you secure something that freely travels through the air as a medium? Furthermore, wireless technology empowered devices to be mobile, making it harder for security protocols to identify and locate a malicious device in the network while making it easier for hackers to access different parts of the network while moving around. Quite often, the discussion centered on the question: Is it even possible to provide complete security in a wireless network? It can be debated that wireless networks and perfect data security are mutually exclusive. Availability of latest wideband wireless technologies have diminished predominantly large gap between the network capacities of a wireless network versus a wired one. Regardless, the physical medium limitation still exists for a wired network. Hence, security is a way more complicated and harder goal to achieve for a wireless network (Imai, Rahman, & Kobara, 2006). So, it can be safely assumed that a security protocol that is robust for a wireless network will provide at least equal if not better level of security in a similar wired network. Henceforth, we will talk about security essentially in a wireless network and readers should assume it to be equally applicable to a wired network.
