The advent of cloud computing redefines the traditional query processing paradigm. Whereas computational overhead and memory constraints become less prohibitive, data privacy, security, and confidentiality concerns become top priorities. In particular, as data owners outsource the management of their data to service providers, query processing over such data has more resources to tap into, yet ...

Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE) for Internet of Things (IoT) enables the data encryption while preserving format and length original data. With these advantages, FPE can be utilized in many IoT applications. However, requires complicated computations are high overheads on embedded devices. In this paper, we proposed an efficient implementation Format-preserving Algorithm (FEA), which is Kore...

Processing on encrypted data is a subject of rich investigation. Several new and exotic encryption schemes, supporting a diverse set of features, have been developed for this purpose. We consider encryption schemes that are suitable for applications such as data clustering on encrypted data. In such applications, the processing algorithm needs to learn certain properties about the encrypted dat...

FPE deconstructs and reframes basic neo-liberal assumptions and in the process refocuses economic theory and constructs alternatives. It uses a political economic approach, which is “the study of society as an integrated whole.” This approach identifies and analyzes “social relations as they relate to the economic system of production” (Drache 1978 as quoted in Bezanson and Luxton 2006, 12). A ...

With the growing importance of cloud computing, database encryption has become a critical technology to protect data against honest-but-curious attackers. Our goal is to encrypt the data in such a way that it remains protected against powerful attackers and at the same time achieve good performance by processing queries in the cloud without decrypting the data. Order-Preserving Encryption (OPE)...

Factor price equalization (FPE) is a central theme in trade theory, for which [Dixit, A.K., Norman, V., 1980. Theory of International Trade, Cambridge University Press, London] establish the necessary and sufficient condition (the Dixit–Norman condition). [Deardorff, A.V. 1994. The possibility of factor price equalization: revisited, Journal of International Economics 36, 167–175.] provides a m...

As a powerful tool in solving privacy preserving cooperative problems, secure multiparty computation is more and more popular in electronic bidding, anonymous voting, and online auction. Privacy preserving sequencing problem which is an essential link is regarded as the core issue in these applications. However, due to the difficulties of solvingmultiparty privacy preserving sequencing problem,...

Though cloud databases offer advantages in terms of maintenance cost, they require encryption in order to protect confidential records. Specialized searchable encryption schemes are needed to provide the functionality of privacy preserving search on encrypted data. In many use cases, a search which also returns the correct documents when the search term was misspelled is very desirable. Therefo...
