Zheng, Yubo (author), Xu, Peng (author), Wang, Wei (author), Chen, Tianyang (author), Susilo, Willy (author), Liang, K. (author), Jin, Hai (author)Many practical secure systems have been designed to prevent real-world attacks via maximizing the attacking cost so as to reduce attack intentions. Inspired by this philosophy, we propose a new concept named delay encryption with keyword search (DEKS) to resist the notorious keyword guessing attack (KGA), in the context of secure cloud-based...conference paper 2022

(author), Xu, Chunyang (author), Chen, Yongping (author)The erosion threshold, beyond which bed sediments start to move, is a key parameter describing sediment transport processes. For silt-dominated mixtures, in which the grain size is between sand and clay, existing experimental studies exhibit contradictory observations. That is, the erosion was either sand-like or clay-like, suggesting...journal article 2022
