Privacy Preserving Fog-Enabled Dynamic Data Aggregation in Mobile Phone Sensing

With the development of science and technology, mobile phones have gained unprecedented popularity, subsequently the applications based on mobile phone perception have become widespread. Mobile sensing encourages many users to participate in data collection tasks through their mobile phones, but this process raises privacy issues. Previous studies have either used additive homomorphism to protect data privacy or aggregated methods to provide identity privacy protection. However, little research has been done on data dynamics and how to improve aggregation efficiency in multi-user scenarios. To solve this problem, we propose a privacy preserving fog-enabled dynamic data aggregation protocol in mobile phone sensing, named FDDA. In the proposal, we first add fog nodes to our framework, allowing fog nodes to aggregate a set of user data at the same geographical location without identifying the data sources. Then, we design data dynamics strategy to support the user joining and revoking effectively. Finally, we show that our protocol can be well applied in actual scenarios through security analysis and simulation experiments.
The Novel Efficient Dual-field FIPS Modular Multiplication

The modular multiplication is the key module of public-key cryptosystems such as RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) and ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography).However, the efficiency of the modular multiplication, especially the modular square, is very low.In order to reduce their operation cycles and power consumption, and improve the efficiency of the public-key cryptosystems, a dual-field efficient FIPS (Finely Integrated Product Scanning) modular multiplication algorithm is proposed.The algorithm makes a full use of the correlation of the data in the case of equal operands so as to avoid some redundant operations.The experimental results show that the operation speed of the modular square is increased by 23.8% compared to the traditional algorithm after the multiplication and addition operations are reduced about 2 ( ) / 2 s s -, and the read operations are reduced about 2 s s -, where 32 s = n / for n-bit operands.In addition, since the algorithm supports the length scalable and dual-field modular multiplication, distinct applications focused on performance or cost could be satisfied by adjusting the relevant parameters.

A Hand Gesture Recognition Method using Inertial Sensor for Rapid Operation on Embedded Device

We propose a hand gesture recognition method that is compatible with a head-up display (HUD) including small processing resource.For fast link adaptation with HUD, it is necessary to rapidly process gesture recognition and send the minimum amount of driver hand gesture data from the wearable device.Therefore, we use a method that recognizes each hand gesture with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor based on revised correlation matching.The method of gesture recognition is executed by calculating the correlation between every axis of the acquired data set.By classifying pre-defined gesture values and actions, the proposed method enables rapid recognition.Furthermore, we evaluate the performance of the algorithm, which can be implanted within wearable bands, requiring a minimal process load.The experimental results evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of our decomposed correlation matching method.Furthermore, we tested the proposed algorithm to confirm the effectiveness of the system using pre-defined gestures of specific motions with a wearable platform device.The experimental results validated the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed hand gesture recognition system.Despite being based on a very simple concept, the proposed algorithm showed good performance in recognition accuracy

Learning in early childhood is said to be successful if the goal has been reached to its fullpotential in accordance with the stages of child growth and development. Various ways ofapplying early childhood learning, especially in the kindergarten environment, have beencarried out by the teacher. Given the teacher's central role in maximizing early childhoodlearning, a form of communication is needed that provides a sense of security andcomfort for the child. Effective communication is a form of positive communication as ameans of realizing the effectiveness and efficiency of learning. Effective communicationis closely related to the delivery of positive words both done by the teacher and thechild. actually delivering positive words can provide a sense of security and comfortfor children. the comfort and safety of early childhood are needed in facilitating andmaximizing the learning process. Whether or not the process of effective communicationin early childhood learning depends on the skills and creativity of teachers in languageprocessing, so that the pattern of good relations between teachers and children ismaximally established because the child becomes open and does not burden the child.Citta Yogyakarta Kindergarten becomes a research study in implementing effectivecommunication of early childhood. The results of the study include the implementation,impact and supporting factors and obstacles of effective communication implementationin the Citta Rumah Kindergarten.
Energy efficient software update mechanism for networked component-based IoT devices

Due to security issues and incremental user requirements, software in IoT devices needs to be changed frequently to improve existing functionalities or to fix bugs. Software updates have become an integral task of IoT systems to maintain effective operations. Recently, the common software architecture in advanced IoT devices is component-based, in which components can be updated at run time. In such IoT networks, devices can download updated components from neighbor nodes, enabling quick deployment of updates. In this context, there are two main issues in the distribution of software components that needed to pay attention: i) how to deliver updates to all devices in an energy-efficient way, and ii) how to quickly deploy updates to avoid long network downtime.In this thesis, we propose a mechanism that schedules updates on all devices in an IoT edge network with the goal to minimize the energy consumption, taking into account the deadline constraint for updating the entire network. Unlike previous studies on IoT component-based software update, which often focus on how a single component is replaced in the operating system, we focus on the distribution of components in the network and investigate the update process happened in the flash memory of a device, in which the order of re-written components into the memory is decisive for energy consumption.We introduce a novel energy model of the update process inside a device, focusing on the flash re-writing operation which consumes a significant amount of energy in the update process. Then, we formulate a mathematical optimization model for the problem of energy efficient update scheduling.Because of the high complexity of the problem, we then propose an algorithm called ESUS to approximate the optimal schedule for updating all devices in the network. To evaluate our scheduling algorithm, we compare the results of ESUS to the optimal solutions given by a mathematical solver. Simulation results show the efficiency of our method, which is close to optimal scheduling solution with much lower execution time compared to the solver.
Can Smartphones be used as an information delivery tool in post-conflict context?

In areas where reaching out to rural farmers is difficult, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), such as mobile smartphones may offer an opportunity to share timely information on weather, markets, farm inputs, and research results to the farmers. Access to this type of information could potentially enhance farmers' farm productivity and their ability to make crucial decisions related to farm management in the face of climate variability. Mobile technologies have been identified as one way of easing information communication with farmers, especially in remote hard to reach areas.As in most African counties, the mobile technology sector is the leader in ICT development in Somalia, with approximately 7 out of 10 Somalis using mobile money services regularly. This creates and provides an opportunity for communicating and delivering information to farmers using ICTs technologies. What is not well understood is how ICTs, particularly smartphones, could be used as an information communication tool in post-conflict areas like rural Somalia. This study set out to assess the feasibility of using smartphones as a tool for delivering agricultural advisory information to rural farmers in the Afgooye district of Somalia.During a period of 11 weeks between December 2018 to March 2019, interviews were conducted with 30 vegetable growers and ten key informants. Individual interviews were carried out with the key-informants, while semi-structured questionnaire interviews were conducted with the farmers.The findings of the study revealed that the necessary enabling conditions for the adoption and implementation of the smartphone-based advisory system in the study area exist. Moreover, the use of smartphones among surveyed vegetable growers was influenced by factors like age, literacy level, and non-farm income source. Growers that had land title deeds, as well as non-farm income, were more likely to own a smartphone or to buy one compared with other farmers who rented land or shared their farmland. Furthermore, human security issues, as well as internet connectivity, were the main factors that constrain the access and use of smartphones in the Afgooye area. Mobile data cost was another factor stated by the farmers as restricting the optimal use of smartphones.The main conclusion of this study is that while there is a potential of using smartphones in the study area as an information delivery tool, there are both internal and external challenges that need to be improved. Specifically, many of the farmers identified security and credible information source providers as more urgent issues. Somalia is in the process of post-conflict construction, therefore, peace and security continues to be threatened by a range of external forces.

A Framework for Enhancing the Leadership Competencies of Diocesan School Principals

ABSTRACT: The school principal plays a key role in supporting the school by communicating a common purpose that distributed leadership is developed within a school climate built upon collaboration; the principal models leadership using tools and routines; and situational decision making requires principals to make the decisions on their own. To produce graduates, who can easily adapt to the 21 st century, school principals who are in the forefront of schools’ leadership are expected to possess the necessary competencies. Moved by the interest to assess, whether diocesan school principals possess the needed competencies in leading schools, this study was conducted involving teachers and principals of a diocesan school system in Quezon City, the Philippines. The descriptive survey method of research was used in this study. It revealed that principals have advanced competency in the structural, human resource, political, and symbolic dimensions of leadership as assessed by the principals themselves and by the teachers. There is no significant difference in the perception between the two respondents on the principals’ competencies in the structural, political, and symbolic dimension, but there is a significant difference in the perception between the two groups on the human resource dimension of leadership. The study resulted to the creation of a leadership framework that can be utilized by the principals in areas, where they need enhancement in relation to their leadership competencies, especially in the human resource leadership dimension.

An Application of Contemporary Self Expression within Art Education Based on Ideologies of Traditional Self-Portraits: Focused on the Comparison of Menciusʼs Hoyeonjigi and Deleuzeʼs Ontology

구조의 해체와 분열을 특징으로 하는 현대사회의 다변화되고 경계가 모호해지는 현상들로 인해 학습자들에게 자아에 대한 개념정립이나 자아형성의 중요성이 더욱 강조된다. 본 논문은 시각문화의 적극적인 소통으로 규정되는 현대의 포스트모더니 즘 시대를 이해하고 이를 바탕으로 독자적인 자아관을 형성하고, 이를 현대적 시각표현으로 개발하는데 연구목적이 있다. 전통적인 자화상이 보여주는 자아의 개념을 맹자의 호연지기설을 통해 심도 깊게 이해하고, 이를 토대로 들뢰즈의 존재론이 제시하는 자아상의 잠재가능성을 비교하여 고찰하였다. 이러한 이론적 학습과 전통적 자화상의 감상에 기반한 자아관을 확립한 후 이를 시각적으로 표현하는 수업을 실제적으로 제시하고 수행하였다. 또한 이러한 수업의 결과물을 분석하여 결과 적으로 자아관의 형성과 미술교육적 활용에 얼마나 효과적이었나를 분석해 보았다. 자아에 관한 개성적인 인식이 독창적인 자아표현에 직접적인 효율성을 가진다는 사실과, 전통의 사유에 기반 하여 현대적인 표현획득의 계기가 마련되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.Academics of today’s era are challenged when finding their ideologies and self-identity due to the increasingly diverse environment. This paper aims to analyze Post Modernism defined by visual culture that has been formed by active debate, and with this background seeks to invent modern visual culture. Through an in-depth understanding of the traditional self-portrait through Mencius’s Hoyenjigi and the ontology provided by Deleuze, a new potential is found for the art style of portraits. I proposed a practical lecture where students can visually express their interactions with these ideologies provided by both the traditional and the modern portrait. Furthermore, students will analyze their works to see how effectively they have developed their personal views. Through this research, it can be confirmed that recognition of self was enabled by formation of individuality and traditional concepts.

DCStore: A deduplication based cloud of cloud storage services

The cloud storage systems are becoming more popular and all the organizations are moving towards the direction of cloud for storing the data. Moving all the data in one cloud causes problems like vendor lock-in, increased service costs, and data availability. In this paper, we are introducing the DCStore, a cloud-of-clouds storage services designed for an organization to outsource their data into the clouds. In order to overcome the above mentioned problems we combine three key techniques. First, DCStore will remove all the redundant data at the client-side to save storage using via application-aware chunking method. Second, in order to achieve high availability of data DCStore uses an inner-chunk based erasure coding scheme which distributes unique chunks across multiple clouds. Finally, a Container-based share management strategy is used for optimizing the performance. Load Balancing enables enterprise to manage workload demands or application demands by distributing resources among numerous computers, networks or server. Therefore, our experimental evaluations can improve performance, storage space and can achieve high availability of data.
