This study presents a comprehensive benchmarking analysis of cryptographic protocols for Internet of Things (IoT) malware defense. The framework was specifically tailored to evaluate cryptographic protocols such as AES-128, AES-256, ChaCha20, RSA (1024-bit, 2048-bit, and 4096-bit), SHA256, SHA512, and HMAC-SHA256 were tested in both standalone and emulated environments. The primary objective was to evaluate the performance and resource consumption of these protocols, focusing on their encryption and hashing efficiency. Key innovations include the comparative analysis of resource consumption and performance efficiency across diverse cryptographic operations, under both real-world and emulated conditions. By identifying protocols like ChaCha20 for high efficiency and minimal resource usage, and RSA 4096-bit for enhanced security at higher computational costs, this study provides actionable insights into the trade-offs between security and performance. These findings offer a foundational reference for selecting optimized cryptographic protocols, advancing IoT malware defense strategies through informed decision-making.

In today's digital era, various real-world applications generate data in streams, and these data streams are of two types stationary data streams, which are static, and non-stationary data streams that are dynamic in nature. Non-stationary data streams are pro-to-concept drifts. To overcome this issue, an adaptable streaming feature selection technique for non-stationary data streams is proposed in this paper. The selection of relevant feature space from non-stationary data streams is crucial for enabling intelligence through various data mining tasks, specifically using data classification. Feature selection improves the overall performance of the classifier while increasing the computational overhead. The proposed approach aims to enable streaming feature selection whenever the classification accuracy is underperforming to enhance the classification accuracy, while the model remains stable if there is no change in the concepts. The proposed approach is adaptive and ameliorates the classifier performance by reducing the error rate during changes in the concept with time. This adaptability to concept drift improves the accuracy by approximately 16% and reduces the computation time by 50%. The proposed model avoids overfitting of the model.

Wildfires pose a significant threat with an increased risk of loss of life and property damage in recent years. Traditionally catastrophe modeling has relied on physical models to understand and forecast the behavior of such catastrophic events. In large part this has been due to the lack of a concise dataset that can bring together all the features required for properly modeling such phenomena, and also the required computational strength did not exist. In this paper, we produce a large-scale multivariate dataset to develop deep learning models to understand and forecast the spread of wildfires. We examine features such as topography, climate conditions, and population density which affect the severity of a natural disaster. We discuss challenges in deep learning approaches to next-day wildfires prediction. We expect that this approach can be utilized to produce state of the art deep learning models for other natural catastrophes as well.

Quantization is proven to be effective for Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to reduce the cost of computation and storage with low-bitwidth data representations. However, the current execution of quantized data on the existing full-bitwidth processing units, such as ALU in CPUs and DSP in FPGAs, is through simply extending the lower bitwidth to the supported bitwidth, which leads to the underutilization of the computing unit and delivers low computational throughput. In this study, we propose HiKonv, a unified solution that maximizes the throughput of convolution on a given underlying processing unit with low-bitwidth quantized data as inputs through novel bit-wise management and parallel computation. We establish theoretical framework and performance models using a full-bitwidth multiplier for highly parallelized low-bitwidth convolution and demonstrate new breakthroughs for high-performance computing in this critical domain. For example, a single 32-bit processing unit in CPU can deliver 128 binarized convolution operations (multiplications and additions), thirteen 4-bit convolution operations or five 8-bit convolution operations with a single multiplication instruction, and a single 27×18 multiplier in the FPGA DSP core can deliver 60, 8 or 2 convolution operations with 1, 4 or 8-bit inputs in one clock cycle. We demonstrate the effectiveness of HiKonv on CPU and FPGA for both convolutional layers and a complete DNN model with our platform-oriented implementations. On CPU, HiKonv outperforms the baseline implementation with 1 to 8-bit inputs and provides up to 7.6× and 1.4× performance improvements for 1-D convolution. For the 2-D convolutional layer, HiKonv performs 2.74× and 3.19× over the baseline implementation for 4-bit signed and unsigned data inputs. HiKonv also provides over 2× latency improvement for a complete DNN model on both Intel and ARM CPUs. On FPGA, the HiKonv solution enables a single DSP to process the same convolution operations that requir

The ability to observe astronomical events through the detection of gravitational waves relies on the quality of multilayer coatings used on the optical mirrors of interferometers. Amorphous Ta2O5 (including TiO2:Ta2O5) currently limits detector sensitivity due to high mechanical loss. In this paper, mechanical loss measured at both cryogenic and room temperatures of amorphous Ta2O5 films grown by magnetron sputtering and annealed in air at 500 ∘C is shown to decrease for elevated growth temperature. Films grown at 310 ∘C and annealed yield a mechanical loss of 3.1×10−4 at room temperature, the lowest value reported for pure amorphous Ta2O5 grown by magnetron sputtering to date, and comparable to the lowest values obtained for films grown by ion beam sputtering. Additionally, the refractive index n increases 6% for elevated growth temperature, which could lead to improved sensitivity of gravitational-wave detectors by allowing a thickness reduction in the mirrors' coatings. Structural characterization suggests that the observed mechanical loss reduction in amorphous Ta2O5 films with increasing growth temperature correlates with a reduction in the coordination number between oxygen and tantalum atoms, consistent with TaOx polyhedra with increased corner-sharing and reduced edge- and face-sharing structures.
