A flooding attack in wireless sensor networks is a type of threat that shortens the lifetimes of the sensor networks. Although flooding attack prevention techniques have been proposed, if a continuous flooding attack occurs, the sensor node energy is depleted during detection. In this paper, we use multi-path routing to solve this problem. In order to balance the load of the sensor node, energy...

JULY 2010 his monthly review of select articles has been compiled and prepared as a service to the members of the Clinical Pharmacy and Pharmacology (CPP) Section of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM). The content below is for information purposes only and is intended to highlight recent articles that may be of interest to the CPP membership. Though some core content from the publicat...

At Asiacrypt’99, Vaudenay modified the structure in the IDEA cipher to a new scheme, which they called as the Lai-Massey scheme. It is proved that 3-round Lai-Massey scheme is sufficient for pseudorandomness and 4-round Lai-Massey scheme is sufficient for strong pseudorandomness. But the author didn’t point out whether three rounds and four rounds are necessary for the pseudorandomness and stro...

Interdomain route selection is a complex process driven by constraints arising from topology, policy (e.g., commercial relationships), traffic engineering (e.g., load balancing), and performance. BGP was designed to find (a single) policy conformant route through the network for each source, destination pair. There are two fundamental problems with the route selection process of BGP. First, edg...

Proper planning of assembly lines is one of the production managers’ concerns at the tactical level so that it would be possible to use the machine capacity, reduce operating costs and deliver customer orders on time. The lack of an efficient method in balancing assembly line can create threatening problems for manufacturing organizations. The use of assembly line balancing methods cannot balan...

Assembly lines are special kinds of production systems which are of great importance in the industrial production of high quantity commodities. In many practical manufacturing systems, configuration of assembly lines is fixed and designing a new line may be incurred huge amount of costs and thereby it is not desirable for practitioners. When some changes related to market demand occur, it is wo...
