Side-Channel Attacks in a Real Scenario

Existing Side-Channel Attacks(SCAs) have several limitations and, rather than to be real attack methods,can only be considered to be security evaluation methods. Their limitations are mainly related to the sampling conditions, such as the trigger signal embedded in the source code of the encryption device, and the acquisition device that serves as the encryption-device controller. Apart from it being very difficult for an attacker to add a trigger into the original design before making an attack or to control the encryption device, there is a big gap in the capacity of existing SCAs to pose real threats to cipher devices. In this paper, we propose a new method, the sliding window SCA(SW-SCA), which can be applied in scenarios in which the acquisition device is independent of the encryption device and for which the encryption source code requires no trigger signal or modification. First,we describe the main issues in existing SCAs, then we theoretically analyze the effectiveness and complexity of our proposed SW-SCA —a method that can incorporate a sliding-window mechanism into almost all of the existing non-profiled SCAs. The experimental results for both simulated and physical traces verify the effectiveness of the SW-SCA and the appropriateness of its theoretical complexity.     

Preparation and electrochemical performance of double perovskite La_2CoMnO_6 nanofibers

Through electrospinning,La_2Co Mn O_6 nanofibers were prepared from a polyvinylpyrrolidone/lanthanum nitrate–cobalt acetate–manganese acetate(PVP/LCM)precursor and were used as electrode materials.The morphologies and structures of the samples were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET)specific surface area analysis.The results show that the prepared La_2Co Mn O_6 nanofibers are stable,one-dimensional structures formed from interconnected La_2Co Mn O_(6 )nanoparticles with a diamond-like crystal structure.The specific surface area of the fibers is 79.407 m~2·g~(-1).Electrochemical performance tests with a three-electrode system reveal the specific capacitance of the La_2Co Mn O_6 nanofibers as 109.7 F·g~(-1) at a current density of 0.5 A·g~(-1).After 1000 charge-discharge cycles at a current density of 1 A·g~(-1),the specific capacitance maintains 90.9%of its initial value,demonstrating a promising performance of the constraint capacitance and good cyclic stability.     

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta identifies mesenchymal stem cells with enhanced engraftment to tissue injury and pro-angiogenic property

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are heterogeneous likely consisting of subpopulations with various therapeutic potentials. Here we attempted to acquire a subset of MSCs with enhanced effect in wound healing. We found that human placental MSCs expressing platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor (PDGFR)-β exhibited greater proliferation rates and generated more colony-forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-F), compared to PDGFR-β^? MSCs. Notably, PDGFR-β⁺ MSCs expressed higher levels of pro-angiogenic factors such as Ang1, Ang2, VEGF, bFGF and PDGF. When 10⁶ GFP-expressing MSCs were topically applied into excisional wounds in mice, PDGFR-β⁺ MSCs actively incorporated into the wound tissue, resulting in enhanced engraftment (3.92 ± 0.31 × 10⁵ remained in wound by 7 days) and accelerated wound closure; meanwhile, PDGFR-β^? MSCs tended to remain on the top of the wound bed with significantly fewer cells (2.46 ± 0.26 × 10⁵) engrafted into the wound, suggesting enhanced chemotactic migration and engraftment of PDGFR-β⁺ MSCs into the wound. Real-Time PCR and immunostain analyses revealed that the expression of PDGF-B was upregulated after wounding; transwell migration assay showed that PDGFR-β⁺ MSCs migrated eightfold more than PDGFR-β^? MSCs toward PDGF-BB. Intriguingly, PDGFR-β⁺ MSC-treated wounds showed significantly enhanced angiogenesis compared to PDGFR-β^? MSC- or vehicle-treated wounds. Thus, our results indicate that PDGFR-β identifies a subset of MSCs with enhanced chemotactic migration to wound injury and effect in promoting angiogenesis and wound healing, implying a greater therapeutic potential for certain diseases.

国家考古遗址公园的公众吸引力研究

国家考古遗址公园的发展已然步入第十二个年头.回顾过去取得的巨大成绩,其逐步建立起了跨年代、多省份、大规模的保护体系,在很大程度上回答了国家考古遗址公园"保护什么?为谁保护?为什么保护?"等疑问.但在公共吸引力方面其仍存在着许多问题,进而造成了冷热不均的巨大客流差异.国家考古遗址公园的公众吸引力主要受主观和客观两方面因素的影响:其中客观因素很大程度上受人口基数、交通区位和区域经济水平等要素的制约;主观因素则与遗址本身对公众游览动机的激发,即遗址公园的核心遗产价值和品牌建设等要素息息相关.借助引力模型考察人口基数、交通区位和经济水平对基础公众吸引力的影响可以发现,其将36处遗址公园划分为了四挡,其中覆盖人口500万以上,交通距离50公里以下的公园拥有最为巨大的吸引力潜质.而唯有做好遗址公园自身的核心遗产价值挖掘工作,并将加强特色的品牌建设,方能提升公众来到园区的主观能动性.     

水平循环荷载引起的砂土沉陷-致密作用对刚性桩承载力的影响分析

为研究砂土中刚性桩基础在循环荷载作用下的承载力演化规律,提出了一种循环后单桩承载力的评估方法.首先,基于沉陷坑与致密区域土体的质量守恒原理,量化了由沉陷引起的土体参数变化;然后,根据API规范中的砂土水平土抗力-位移模型计算循环前后的单桩承载力;最后,提出了循环后单桩承载力的评估模型,并对沉陷坑尺寸、土体初始相对密实度和致密区域模式等因素进行对比分析.结果 表明:单桩承载力随沉陷坑的发展不断增大;对于松砂、中密砂和密砂,循环后的单桩承载力可分别提高约3.0、1.5、1.2倍,提高幅值随相对密实度的增大而降低;2种土体变形模式中,单锥模式相比于双锥模式更符合真实的致密区域形态.
