The species of the genus Cystomutilla André, 1896 are reviewed. A new genus Hemutilla Lelej, Tu et Chen, gen. nov. (type species Hemutilla granulata Tu, Lelej et Chen, sp. nov.) and four new species: H. tuberculata Tu, Lelej et Chen, sp. nov. (China: Henan, Shaanxi), H. ferrugineipes Tu, Lelej et Chen, sp. nov. (China: Hunan), H. granulata Tu, Lelej et Chen, sp. nov. (China: Zhejiang), and H. c...

Two new species of the issid genus Neotetricodes Zhang et Chen (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Issidae): Neotetricodes longispinus Chang et Chen sp. nov. (China: Yunnan) and Neotetricodes xiphoideus Chang et Chen sp. nov. (China: Yunnan) are described and illustrated. The generic characteristic is redefined. A checklist and key to the species of the genus are provided. The female genitalia of the ge...

We would like to thank Chen et al. for their careful reading of, and comments [1] regarding, our manuscript [2].

Recently Chen et al. have proposed a RFID access control protocol based on the strategy of indefinite-index and challenge-response. They have claimed that their protocol provides optimal location privacy and resists against man in the middle, spoofed tag and spoofed reader attacks. However, in this paper we show that Chen et al. protocol does not provide the claimed security. More precisely, we...

In the past decade, there have been some studies about control methods with the purpose of either reducing “bad” chaos or introducing “good” chaos [Chen & Dong, 1998]. Due to its great potential in nontraditional applications such as those found within the context of physical, chemical, mechanical, electrical, optical, and particularly, biological and medical systems [Chen et al., 2001; Schiff ...
