IEEE 2020: An Attribute-based Availability Model for Large Scale IaaS Clouds with CARMA

Abstract:  High availability is one of the core properties of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and ensures that users have anytime access to on-demand cloud services. However, significant variations of workflow and the presence of super-tasks, mean that heterogeneous workload can severely impact the availability of IaaS clouds. Although previous work has investigated global queues, VM deployment, and failure of PMs, two aspects are yet to be fully explored: one is the impact of task size and the other is the differing features across PMs such as the variable execution rate and capacity. To address these challenges we propose an attribute-based availability model of large scale IaaS developed in the formal modeling language CARMA. The size of tasks in our model can be a fixed integer value or follow the normal, uniform or log-normal distribution.

IEEE-2019: A Secure Cloud-of-Clouds System for Storing and Sharing Big Data

Abstract: We present CHARON, a cloud-backed storage system capable of storing and sharing big data in a secure, reliable, and efficient way using multiple cloud providers and storage repositories to comply with the legal requirements of sensitive personal data. CHARON implements three distinguishing features: (1) it does not require trust on any single entity, (2) it does not require any client-managed server, and (3) it efficiently deals with large files over a set of geo-dispersed storage services. Besides that, we developed a novel Byzantine-resilient data-centric leasing protocol to avoid write-write conflicts between clients accessing shared repositories. We evaluate CHARON using micro and application-based benchmarks simulating representative workflows from bioinformatics, a prominent big data domain. The results show that our unique design is not only feasible but also presents an end-to-end performance of up to 2:5_ better than other cloud-backed solutions.

IEEE-2019:Crypt-DAC:Cryptographically Enforced Dynamic Access Control in the Cloud

Abstract: Enabling cryptographically enforced access controls for data hosted in untrusted cloud is attractive for many users and organizations. However, designing efficient cryptographically enforced dynamic access control system in the cloud is still challenging. In this paper, we propose Crypt-DAC, a system that provides practical cryptographic enforcement of dynamic access control. Crypt-DAC revokes access permissions by delegating the cloud to update encrypted data. In Crypt-DAC, a file is encrypted by a symmetric key list which records a file key and a sequence of revocation keys. In each revocation, a dedicated administrator uploads a new revocation key to the cloud and requests it to encrypt the file with a new layer of encryption and update the encrypted key list accordingly. Crypt-DAC proposes three key techniques to constrain the size of key list and encryption layers. As a result, Crypt-DAC enforces dynamic access control that provides efficiency, as it does not require expensive decryption/reencryption and uploading/re-uploading of large data at the administrator side, and security, as it immediately revokes access permissions. We use formalization framework and system implementation to demonstrate the security and efficiency of our construction.

IEEE 2018: Secure Attribute-Based Signature Scheme with Multiple Authorities for Blockchain in Electronic Health Records Systems
Abstract: Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are entirely controlled by hospitals instead of patients, which complicates seeking medical advices from different hospitals. Patients face a critical need to focus on the details of their own healthcare and restore management of their own medical data. The rapid development of blockchain technology promotes population healthcare, including medical records as well as patient-related data. This technology provides patients with comprehensive, immutable records, and access to EHRs free from service providers and treatment websites. In this paper, to guarantee the validity of EHRs encapsulated in blockchain, we present an attribute-based signature scheme with multiple authorities, in which a patient endorses a message according to the attribute while disclosing no information other than the evidence that he has attested to it. Furthermore, there are multiple authorities without a trusted single or central one to generate and distribute public/private keys of the patient, which avoids the escrow problem and conforms t the mode of distributed data storage in the blockchain. By sharing the secret pseudorandom function seeds among authorities, this protocol resists collusion attack out of N from N 􀀀1 corrupted authorities. Under the assumption of the computational bilinear Dif_e-Hellman, we also formally demonstrate that, in terms of the unforgeability and perfect privacy of the attribute-signer, this attribute-based signature scheme is secure in the random oracle model. The comparison shows the ef_ciency and properties between the proposed method and methods proposed in other studies.

IEEE-2019: Sentiment Analysis of Comment Texts Based on BiLSTM

With the rapid development of Internet technology and social networks, a large number of comment texts are generated on the Web. In the era of big data, mining the emotional tendency of comments through artificial intelligence technology is helpful for the timely understanding of network public opinion. The technology of sentiment analysis is a part of artificial intelligence, and its research is very meaningful for obtaining the sentiment trend of the comments. The essence of sentiment analysis is the text classification task, and different words have different contributions to classification. In the current sentiment analysis studies, distributed word representation is mostly used. However, distributed word representation only considers the semantic information of word, but ignore the sentiment information of the word. In this paper, an improved word representation method is proposed, which integrates the contribution of sentiment information into the traditional TF-IDF algorithm and generates weighted word vectors. The weighted word vectors are input into bidirectional long short term memory (BiLSTM) to capture the context information effectively, and the comment vectors are better represented. The sentiment tendency of the comment is obtained by feed forward neural network classifier. Under the same conditions, the proposed sentiment analysis method is compared with the sentiment analysis methods of RNN, CNN, LSTM, and NB. The experimental results show that the proposed sentiment analysis method has higher precision, recall, and F1 score. The method is proved to be effective with high accuracy on comments

IEEE 2018: A Data Mining based Model for Detection of Fraudulent Behaviour in Water Consumption

Abstract: Fraudulent behavior in drinking water consumption is a significant problem facing water supplying companies and agencies. This behavior results in a massive loss of income and forms the highest percentage of non-technical loss. Finding efficient measurements for detecting fraudulent activities has been an active research area in recent years. Intelligent data mining techniques can help water supplying companies to detect these fraudulent activities to reduce such losses. This research explores the use of two classification techniques (SVM and KNN) to detect suspicious fraud water customers. The main motivation of this research is to assist Yarmouk Water Company (YWC) in Irbid city of Jordan to overcome its profit loss. The SVM based approach uses customer load profile attributes to expose abnormal behavior that is known to be correlated with non-technical loss activities. The data has been collected from the historical data of the company billing system. The accuracy of the generated model hit a rate of over 74% which is better than the current manual prediction procedures taken by the YWC. To deploy the model, a decision tool has been built using the generated model. The system will help the company to predict suspicious water customers to be inspected on site.
