Abstract Big data resources are characterized by large scale, wide sources, and strong dynamics. Existing access control mechanisms based on manual policy formulation by security experts suffer from drawbacks such as low policy management efficiency and difficulty in accurately describing the access control policy. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes a big data access control mechanism based on a two-layer permission decision structure. This mechanism extends the attribute-based access control (ABAC) model. Business attributes are introduced in the ABAC model as business constraints between entities. The proposed mechanism implements a two-layer permission decision structure composed of the inherent attributes of… More >

Abstract Secure authentication and accurate localization among Internet of Things (IoT) sensors are pivotal for the functionality and integrity of IoT networks. IoT authentication and localization are intricate and symbiotic, impacting both the security and operational functionality of IoT systems. Hence, accurate localization and lightweight authentication on resource-constrained IoT devices pose several challenges. To overcome these challenges, recent approaches have used encryption techniques with well-known key infrastructures. However, these methods are inefficient due to the increasing number of data breaches in their localization approaches. This proposed research efficiently integrates authentication and localization processes in such a way that they complement each… More >

Abstract MicroRNA (miR)-200b-3p has been associated with many tumors, but its involvement in pituitary adenoma is unclear. This study investigated the molecular mechanism underlying miR-200b-3p regulation in pituitary adenomas to provide a theoretical basis for treatment. Bioinformatics was used to analyze pituitary adenoma-related genes and screen new targets related to RECK and miRNA. As well, the relationship between miR-200b-3p and RECK protein was verified using a double-luciferase reporter gene assay. The expression of miR-200b-3p in clinical samples was analyzed by in situ hybridization. Transfection of the miR-200b-3p inhibitor and small interfering-RECK (si-RECK) was verified by qPCR. GH3 cell viability and proliferation… More >

Abstract A deep learning access control model based on user preferences is proposed to address the issue of personal privacy leakage in social networks. Firstly, social users and social data entities are extracted from the social network and used to construct homogeneous and heterogeneous graphs. Secondly, a graph neural network model is designed based on user daily social behavior and daily social data to simulate the dissemination and changes of user social preferences and user personal preferences in the social network. Then, high-order neighbor nodes, hidden neighbor nodes, displayed neighbor nodes, and social data nodes are used to update user nodes… More >

Abstract In this study, the characteristics of heat transfer on an unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Casson nanofluid over an exponentially accelerated vertical porous plate with rotating effects were investigated. The flow was driven by the combined effects of the magnetic field, heat radiation, heat source/sink and chemical reaction. Copper oxide () and titanium oxide () are acknowledged as nanoparticle materials. The nondimensional governing equations were subjected to the Laplace transformation technique to derive closed-form solutions. Graphical representations are provided to analyze how changes in physical parameters, such as the magnetic field, heat radiation, heat source/sink and chemical reaction, affect the velocity, temperature… More >

Abstract La dynamique d’occupation des terres constitue un préalable pour l’identification des contraintes de gestion des ressources naturelles, l’évolution de pratiques agraires et la croissance démographique. L’objectif de cette recherche est d’améliorer les connaissances sur la dynamique d’occupation des terres agricoles dans les zones de cultures sèches (Cinzana) et cotonnière (Kléla) au Mali. La méthodologie utilisée a consisté à la collecte des données planimétriques et à l’analyse diachronique à travers des images satellitaires Landsat TM (Thematic Mapper) de 2000 et OLI (Operational Land Image) de 2020. Les taux de dégradation et de déforestation des formations naturelles ont été calculés d’une part… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The success of teachers in professional environments has a desirable influence on their mental condition. Simply said, teachers’ professional success plays a crucial role in improving their mental health. Due to the invaluable role of professional success in teachers’ mental health, personal and professional variables helping teachers succeed in their profession need to be uncovered. While the role of teachers’ personal qualities has been well researched, the function of professional variables has remained unknown. To address the existing gap, the current investigation measured the role of two professional variables, namely job satisfaction and loving pedagogy, in Chinese EFL teachers’ professional… More >

Abstract The present study has demonstrated that novel acrylic glycopolymers are successfully prepared by using monosaccharides containing an acrylate group (9-12). For this purpose, sugar based acrylate monomers were synthesized via ring opening method (Method B) and homopolymerization of this sugar oxypropylacrylates was performed using free radical polymerization. The characterization of all the monomers and polymers were verified by ¹HNMR, ¹³CNMR, FTIR and GPC techniques. The Glass transition temperatures and thermal characteristics of the polymers were also analyzed by using DSC and TG techniques. The thermal stability of prepared polymers have changed with the stereochemistry of the carbohydrate moiety. Also, the… More >

Abstract Rubber composites of nitrile (NBR) and Ethylene-Propylene-Diene (EPDM) containing unmodified and modified microcrystalline cellulose(MCC) are evaluated for their processing behaviour. The used modified MCC (T-MCC) was treated by N,N-dimethylacetamide/lithium chloride (DMAc/ LiCl).ATR-FTIR spectra of NBR-MCC composites have indicated N-H stretching and bending vibrations and confirmed interactions between nitrile rubber and MCC. AFM studies have indicated that the average roughness of NBR-T-MCC was significantly reduced when compared to that of NBR-untreated MCC. Important processing parameters such as scorch time and cure time are found to decrease significantly for both NBR and EPDM composites withT-MCC. Mechanical properties of these composites are found… More >

Abstract The weathering performance of polypropylene (PP) was studied in an artificial accelerated weathering chamber of 340 nm ultraviolet light and natural conditions in Turpan, China. This work aimed to provide a method for calculating the aging failure of PP under natural conditions by the means of artificial accelerated aging. SEM showed that large crack widths of approximately 1.25 µm and 1.63 µm appealed on the PP surface after 15 days artificial accelerated aging and 150 days natural aging, respectively. XPS data revealed that the number of C-O and C=O bonds on the PP surface were generally the same after artificial… More >
