Abstract Quantum computers accelerate many algorithms based on the superposition principle of quantum mechanics. The Grover algorithm provides significant performance to malicious users attacking symmetric key systems. Since the performance of attacks using quantum computers depends on the efficiency of the quantum circuit of the encryption algorithms, research research on the implementation of quantum circuits is essential. This paper presents a new framework to construct quantum circuits of substitution boxes (S-boxes) using system modeling. We model the quantum circuits of S-boxes using two layers: Toffoli and linear layers. We generate vector spaces based on the values… More >

Abstract Accurate and reliable fault detection is essential for the safe operation of electric vehicles. Support vector data description (SVDD) has been widely used in the field of fault detection. However, constructing the hypersphere boundary only describes the distribution of unlabeled samples, while the distribution of faulty samples cannot be effectively described and easily misses detecting faulty data due to the imbalance of sample distribution. Meanwhile, selecting parameters is critical to the detection performance, and empirical parameterization is generally time-consuming and laborious and may not result in finding the optimal parameters. Therefore, this paper proposes a… More >

Abstract Cyber-physical power system (CPPS) has significantly improved the operational efficiency of power systems. However, cross-space cascading failures may occur due to the coupling characteristics, which poses a great threat to the safety and reliability of CPPS, and there is an acute need to reduce the probability of these failures. Towards this end, this paper first proposes a cascading failure index to identify and quantify the importance of different information in the same class of communication services. On this basis, a joint improved risk-balanced service function chain routing strategy (SFC-RS) is proposed, which is modeled as More >

Abstract In order to fully utilize the regenerative braking energy of metro trains and stabilize the metro DC traction busbar voltage, a hybrid regenerative braking energy recovery system with a dual-mode power management strategy is proposed. Firstly, the construction of the hybrid regenerative braking energy recovery system is explained. Then, based on the power demand of low-voltage load in metro stations, a dual-mode power management strategy is proposed to allocate the reference power of each system according to the different working conditions, and the control methods of each system are set. Finally, the correctness and effectiveness More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Marine container terminal (MCT) plays a key role in the marine intelligent transportation system and international logistics system. However, the efficiency of resource scheduling significantly influences the operation performance of MCT. To solve the practical resource scheduling problem (RSP) in MCT efficiently, this paper has contributions to both the problem model and the algorithm design. Firstly, in the problem model, different from most of the existing studies that only consider scheduling part of the resources in MCT, we propose a unified mathematical model for formulating an integrated RSP. The new integrated RSP model allocates and… More >

Abstract The high performance of IoT technology in transportation networks has led to the increasing adoption of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) technology. The functional advantages of IoV include online communication services, accident prevention, cost reduction, and enhanced traffic regularity. Despite these benefits, IoV technology is susceptible to cyber-attacks, which can exploit vulnerabilities in the vehicle network, leading to perturbations, disturbances, non-recognition of traffic signs, accidents, and vehicle immobilization. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art achievements and developments in applying Deep Transfer Learning (DTL) models for Intrusion Detection Systems in the Internet of Vehicles (IDS-IoV) based on anomaly… More >

Abstract Software-Defined Networking (SDN) represents a significant paradigm shift in network architecture, separating network logic from the underlying forwarding devices to enhance flexibility and centralize deployment. Concurrently, the Internet of Things (IoT) connects numerous devices to the Internet, enabling autonomous interactions with minimal human intervention. However, implementing and managing an SDN-IoT system is inherently complex, particularly for those with limited resources, as the dynamic and distributed nature of IoT infrastructures creates security and privacy challenges during SDN integration. The findings of this study underscore the primary security and privacy challenges across application, control, and data planes.… More >
