In the relay-trading mode of wireless cognitive radio networks the secondary user (SU) can achieve a promised spectrum access opportunity by relaying for the primary user (PU). How to utilize the exchanged resource efficiently and fairly is an interesting and practical problem. In this paper we proposed a cooperative spectrum sharing strategy (RT-CSS) for the relay-trading mode from the fairness view. The cooperative SUs are gathered in a cooperative sharing group (CSG), and contribution metric (CM) is proposed to measure each CSG member's contribution to CSG as well as benefit from CSG. The adjustment of CM can guarantee the fairness and efficiency of spectrum sharing. The numerical simulation shows that RT-CSS can achieve better performance than the sense-uncooperative mode.

Malicious code detection based on behaviors is the development direction of anti-virus techniques. However, the current detection methods based on this theory expose several problems such as the unclearness of behavior sequence analysis and the high false negatives. For this situation, this paper proposes a malicious code detection method based on least-squares estimation. In this method, it correlates program behaviors with time and subject-object, and then constitutes an accurate and complete behavior sequence. It can provide a preprocessing method for the subsequent detection. In order to improve the accuracy and intelligence of malicious code detection, we introduce the concept of expert subjective degree. By modeling malicious samples based on least-squares estimation we can train the Expert Subjective Degree Vector (ESDV) and simulate experts to judge the threat values of malicious codes. Experiments show that this method is more accurate than the current ways to detect the malicious codes which execute themselves in sub-period and sub-process ways, so it can be used as an effective complement of the current anti-virus software.

The availability of computers and communication networks allows us to gather and analyse data on a far larger scale than previously. At present, it is believed that statistics is a suitable method to analyse networks with millions, or more, of vertices. The MATLAB language, with its mass of statistical functions, is a good choice to rapidly realize an algorithm prototype of complex networks. The performance of the MATLAB codes can be further improved by using graphic processor units （GPU）. This paper presents the strategies and performance of the GPU implementation of a complex networks package, and the Jacket toolbox of MATLAB is used. Compared with some commercially available CPU implementations, GPU can achieve a speedup of, on average, 11.3x. The experimental result proves that the GPU platform combined with the MATLAB language is a good combination for complex network research.

Recently, Cloud computing, as one of the hottest words in IT world, has drawn great attention. Many IT companies such as IBM, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Yahoo and others vigorously develop cloud computing systems and related products to customers. However, there are still some difficulties for customers to adopt cloud computing, in which many security issues exist, because data for a customer is stored and processed in cloud, not in a local machine. This paper briefly introduces cloud computing and its key concepts. In particularly, we intend to discuss security requirements and security issues involving data, application and virtualization in cloud computing, as well as current solutions to these issues.

Jamming attack can severely affect the performance of Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to the broadcast nature of wireless medium. In order to localize the source of the attacker, we in this paper propose a jammer localization algorithm named as Minimum-circlecovering based localization (MCCL). Comparing with the existing solutions that rely on the wireless propagation parameters, MCCL only depends on the location information of sensor nodes at the border of the jammed region. MCCL uses the plane geometry knowledge, especially the minimum circle covering technique, to form an approximate jammed region, and hence the center of the jammed region is treated as the estimated position of the jammer. Simulation results showed that MCCL is able to achieve higher accuracy than other existing solutions in terms of jammer's transmission range and sensitivity to nodes' density.

Human itineraries are often initiated by some general intentions and will be optimized after considering all kinds of constraints and available information. This paper proposes a category-based itinerary recommendation framework to help the user transfer from intentions to itinerary planning, which join physical trajectories and information of location based social networks. The main contributions are: (1) Build the category based activity scheduling model;(2) Design and implement the category tree based POI (point or interest) query strategy and algorithm;(3) Propose the Voronoi graph based GPS trajectory analysis method to build traffic information networks;(4) Combine social networks with traffic information networks to implement category based recommendation by ant colony algorithm. The study conducts experiments on datasets from FourSquare and GeoLife project. A test on satisfaction of recommended items is also performed. Results show that the satisfaction reaches 80% in average.

We consider the maximal vector problem on uncertain data, which has been recently posed by the study on processing skyline queries over a probabilistic data stream in the database context. Let D n be a set of n points in a d-dimensional space and q (0 < q 1) be a probability threshold; each point in D n has a probability to occur. Our problem is concerned with how to estimate the expected size of the probabilistic skyline, which consists of all the points that are not dominated by any other point in D n with a probability not less than q. We prove that the upper bound of the expected size is O(min{n, (- ln q)(ln n) d-1 }) under the assumptions that the value distribution on each dimension is independent and the values of the points along each dimension are distinct. The main idea of our proof is to find a recurrence about the expected size and solve it. Our results reveal the relationship between the probability threshold q and the expected size of the probabilistic skyline, and show that the upper bound is poly-logarithmic when q is not extremely small.

Many real-world networks are found to be scale-free. However, graph partition technology, as a technology capable of parallel computing, performs poorly when scale-free graphs are provided. The reason for this is that traditional partitioning algorithms are designed for random networks and regular networks, rather than for scale-free networks. Multilevel graph-partitioning algorithms are currently considered to be the state of the art and are used extensively. In this paper, we analyse the reasons why traditional multilevel graph-partitioning algorithms perform poorly and present a new multilevel graph-partitioning paradigm, top down partitioning, which derives its name from the comparison with the traditional bottom-up partitioning. A new multilevel partitioning algorithm, named betweenness-based partitioning algorithm, is also presented as an implementation of top-down partitioning paradigm. An experimental evaluation of seven different real-world scale-free networks shows that the betweenness-based partitioning algorithm significantly outperforms the existing state-of-the-art approaches.

There is an increasing need to build scalable distributed systems over the Internet infrastructure. However the development of distributed scalable applications suffers from lack of a wide accepted virtual computing environment. Users have to take great efforts on the management and sharing of the involved resources over Internet, whose characteristics are intrinsic growth, autonomy and diversity. To deal with this challenge, Internet-based Virtual Computing Environment （iVCE） is proposed and developed to serve as a platform for distributed scalable applications over the open infrastructure, whose kernel mechanisms are on-demand aggregation and autonomic collaboration of resources. In this paper, we present a programming language for iVCE named Owlet. Owlet conforms with the conceptual model of iVCE, and exposes the iVCE to application developers. As an interaction language based on peer-to-peer content-based publish/subscribe scheme, Owlet abstracts the Internet as an environment for the roles to interact, and uses roles to build a relatively stable view of resources for the on-demand resource aggregation. It provides language constructs to use 1） distributed event driven rules to describe interaction protocols among different roles, 2） conversations to correlate events and rules into a common context, and 3） resource pooling to do fault tolerance and load balancing among networked nodes. We have implemented an Owlet compiler and its runtime environment according to the architecture of iVCE, and built several Owlet applications, including a peer-to-peer file sharing application. Experimental results show that, with iVCE, the separation of resource aggregation logic and business logic significantly eases the process of building scalable distributed applications.
