A novel zero-trust network access control scheme based on the security profile of devices and users

Security constitutes a principal concern for communication networks and services at present. This way, threats should be under control to minimize risks over time in real environments. With this aim, we introduce here a new approach for access control aimed to strengthen security in corporate networks and service providers related environments. Our proposal, named SADAC (Security Attribute-based Dynamic Access Control) presents three main novel features: (i) security related attributes regarding both configuration and operation are considered for network access control of final devices/users; (ii) a dynamic supervision procedure is implemented to evaluate the security profile associated to devices/users over time and, if so, to apply corresponding access restrictions; and (iii) a supervision procedure that also permits to diagnose the causes of inadequate security behaviours, so that the final devices/users can adapt their configuration and/or operation. We describe the overall access control methodology as well as the aspects for its implementation. In particular, we present and evaluate the specific deployment of SADAC for a corporate WiFi environment supported on a Raspberry Pi-based AP to provide Internet access to mobile devices. Through this experimentation we can conclude the convenience of adopting the approach for improving security by minimizing risks in network and communication environments.

Evolutionary game of government safety supervision for prefabricated building construction using system dynamics

PurposeThis study aims to reduce the construction safety accidents of prefabricated building (PB) projects, improve the efficiency and effectiveness of safety supervision by government departments, and provide theoretical reference for improving the safety supervision system of PB construction.Design/methodology/approachConsidering the information asymmetry between government supervision departments and construction contractors and the interactive relationship between the two parties under bounded rationality, we propose an evolutionary game model for the construction safety dynamic supervision of PBs and analyze the evolutionary strategy of the game. The system dynamics (SD) method is used to simulate and analyze the evolutionary game process under a dynamic supervision strategy and the adjustment of external variables.FindingsThe cost difference between the government's strong and weak supervision, the construction contractor's additional expenditure for strengthening safety management, and other factors affect system stability. The government can dynamically adjust the penalties based on the construction contractor's subjective willingness to ignore safety management and further adjust their rate of change based on the completion of the supervision goals to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of construction safety supervision.Originality/valueThis study makes contributions in two areas. Through a combination of SD and an evolutionary game, it provides new insights into the strategic choice of the main body related to PB construction safety. Additionally, considering the nonlinear characteristics of construction safety supervision, it provides useful universal suggestions for PB construction safety.

Myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers in childhood

Myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF) is a maternally inherited disease characterized by myoclonic epilepsy, cerebellar ataxia and progressive muscle weakness. Development of the disease is associated with the most common (90% of cases) point mutation at position 8344 in the mitochondrial lysine transport RNA gene – MTTLys. The disease diagnostics causes certain difficulties due to the insufficient awareness of this pathology and polymorphism of clinical manifestations. The article presents a brief review of the literature data on current views on the disease pathogenesis, diagnostic methods and opportunities for drug treatment, and describes a clinical observation of a 7-year-old child with MERRF syndrome caused by a point mutation at position 8344 in the MTTLys gene. The girl was under dynamic supervision at the neuropsychiatric department. A comprehensive clinical, laboratory and instrumental examination was carried out that also included molecular genetic testing. The progredient progression and multiple symptoms of the disease, slightly increased lactate acidosis in the absence of typical neuroimaging and electromyographic changes are of interest in the observation, thereby confirming they might not necessarily be observed in MERRF. Intrafamily clinical diversity was noted in the absence of signs of the disease in paired mother. A highly informative method of MERRF diagnostics is provided by molecular genetic testing. Establishing a genetic diagnosis underlies a need for conducting medical and genetic counseling for family planning to prevent the re-birth of other sick siblings inheriting this pathology.

Feasibility and effect of adding a concurrent parental component to a school-based wellness program using two modes of mobile-based technology \u2013 mixed methods evaluation of RCT

BackgroundThis study assessed the feasibility and effect of two mobile modes (WhatsApp vs. a specially designed app) in their delivery of updates and assignments to parents.MethodsTwo three-armed, randomized, controlled feasibility studies were conducted. In each trial, four schools with a total of 418 students in grade 5th, mean age 10.1 years, were randomly allocated to the control arm, youth-only arm, or youth & parental component arm. Only the data of those that completed all three assessments (pre, post and 3 months post program) were analyzed: 133 in the first trial and 137 in the second.In the youth-only arm, students participated in an interactive age-tailored prevention program delivered in 10 weekly, 90-min sessions on self-care behaviors, media literacy, self-esteem, and positive body image. The control groups in both studies received three health- and nutrition-related sessions.In the parental arm, in addition to the ‘Favoring-Myself–Young’s ten sessions program, parents received updates and were requested to complete shared assignments with their children. In the first year, the assignments were sent via WhatsApp, and in the following year via “Favoring Myself” smartphone application.Facilitators were third year undergraduate students. They used a detailed semi-structured guide and received 4-weekly hours of didactic and group dynamic supervision. Mixed-methods assessments were performed using semi-structured interviews with ten parents and five school staff members each year, as well as a computerized self-report questionnaire.ResultsFeasibility of parent-adolescent shared assignments in both digital modes was lower than expected. The use of WhatsApp had higher feasibility and uptake than the use of the special application.The addition of the concurrent parental component via WhatsApp was associated with superior improvement in self-esteem and identification of advertisement strategies, compared with the youth-only program. However, adolescents in the youth-only program delivered via the smartphone application demonstrated superior improvement compared to those in the youth and parental component arm.ConclusionsAlthough the addition of the concurrent parenting component was praised by the actively participating parents, overall, under the chosen structure and population, it did not prove to add statistically significant value to the youth-only arm.Trial registrationsNCT03216018 (12.7.2017) and NCT03540277 (26.4.2018).

An Augmented Reality Framework for Visualization of Internet of Things Data for Process Supervision in Factory Shop-Floor

Modern industrial environments provide a high level of digitalization, enabling great volumes of information to be used for shopfloor monitoring and control purposes. In cases where human operators participate in the production process, it is important to support operator’s intervention with Internet of Things (IoT) data and empower process supervision with constant information over Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Towards this end, the proposed framework exploits Augmented Reality (AR) for the provision of an IoT data visualization solution to support KPIs based process supervision in the smart factory environment. The solution utilizes IoT-enabled components, in order to receive dynamic information over the status of sensors and resources spread across the factory shop-floor. The AR application facilitates the need for visualization of information available on the network, on the actual shopfloor components, which offer transparency and ease the supervision of production processes. The development of the AR and cloud API has been based on CSharp and Java, in a reusable framework that can be reused for similar industrial cases. The reconfigurability and reuse of the AR solution is supported by a template configuration, allowing industry practitioners to configure application features and external connections without any additional software development. The solution was validated on a thermoforming process supervision case of a white goods production system. The main goal was to use the AR framework to support operators during the process parameters design phase, and dynamic supervision of the shopfloor environment. It is demonstrated that the proposed system can be used for KPIs monitoring of the production cycles and for empowering process supervision and optimization.

Screening for laryngeal disease in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease

To improve the diagnosis of laryngeal disease in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). 171 patients (89 (52%) men, 82 (48%) women) with non-erosive (39 (23%) people) and erosive (132 (77%) people) forms of GERD were examined. None of the patients made active complaints about the condition of the larynx and pharynx. The examination included a questionnaire, examination by an otorhinolaryngologist, and videoendolaryngoscopy. The survey revealed the presence of symptoms of otorhinolaryngological pathology in 74% of patients. Videolaryngoscopy revealed no laryngeal pathology in 55 (32%) patients, and signs of GERD-associated laryngitis were detected in 116 (68%) patients. The most common pathology was pachydermia in interarytenoid region - in 89 people, laryngeal granuloma was detected in 7 patients, leukoplakia - in 2 patients, chronic edematous polypous laryngitis - in 2 patients, benign laryngeal formations - in 9 patients. In patients with GERD (erosive and non-erosive forms), an asymptomatic course of chronic laryngitis associated with this pathology was observed in 44% of cases. In 52% of patients, pachydermia in interarytenoid region was diagnosed, of which every second had pronounced hyperplasia and folding of the mucous membrane in interarytenoid region, which must be differentiated from laryngeal cancer (in this case, patients should be under the dynamic supervision of an otorhinolaryngologist). Other precancerous formations of the larynx (granulomas and leukoplakia) were found in 5% of patients. Benign neoplasms of the larynx (polyps and cysts) were also detected in 5% of cases. Despite the high frequency of detection of otorhinolaryngological diseases in the examined patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease, none of the patients presented complaints related to the pathology of the larynx, which indicates the need for active detection of this pathology in this category of patients by questioning, questioning, as well as examination by an otorhinolaryngologist.

Кардиотоксичность при лечении онкологических пациентов (обзор литературы)

Thanks to modern diagnostics methods and high efficiency of chemoradiotherapy for cancer diseases, the survival rate of patients increased, and the cancer mortality dropped. However, complications of anti-tumor therapy often have a negative impact on the cardiovascular system. The direct effect of radiation therapy and chemoradiotherapy on the heart causes damage to cardiomyocytes, endocardium and valve structures. Furthermore, it can lead to the development of myocardial dysfunction and heart failure. This term is defined as cardiotoxicity. The preparation process for patients starting chemoradiotherapy should include a cardiovascular examination, pre-treatment identification of possible risk factors for the development of cardiotoxicity, as well as regular check-ups throughout the course of therapy thereafter. One of the most important aspects of the cancer treatment is the close interaction between the cardiologist and the oncologist. Finally, a long-term dynamic supervision and monitoring of patients receiving chemoradiotherapy is required. The purpose of this supervision is the timely diagnosis of cardiovascular complications and prescription of long-term prophylactic therapy for the period in the aftermath of the anti-tumor therapy.

Ward Staff as a Tool to Promote Wellbeing among Prison Employees

Since 2011, the organisational and management process of the Italian Prison Administration has started to change. The Open section and Dynamic supervision measures introduced into the Italian penitentiary system, requires that all prison workers participate in the observation and treatment of the prisoners’ activities, carried out within a multidisciplinary perspective. This may imply a significant increase, in both the workload and possible sources of stress for prison workers and, therefore, hinder the organizational change. To enable the process of change, while monitoring the employees’ wellbeing, monthly multidisciplinary meetings have been planned, involving the ward staff of each prison. This study aims to both understand the impact of the organisational change on the employees of a prison in northern Italy and to explore the sustainability of the ward staff tool. Ten multidisciplinary meetings were analysed over a year, focusing on topics discussed within the group and relational positions assumed by the members. Content analysis has been performed through the T-LAB software, whereas the analysis of the interactive modalities has been carried out through the application of the Interaction Process Analysis grid. Results showed the group’s tendency to focus on the task, neglecting the relational dimension and moments of shared reflection related to the process. The study allows us to reflect on those aspects that may undermine the organisational and employee wellbeing and to assess the sustainability of a new organizational tool.

A Review Study on Security Issues, Benefits, Risks and Various Challenges in Cloud Computing Platform and Proposed Model for Enhancing Security for Sensitive Data

In this recent and technological epoch, Cloud Computing(CC) is the generally promising and upcoming trend in the Universe which aims at the high performance supercomputing. It is the on-request openness of computer system assets, in particular storage space and computing supremacy, with no forthright dynamic supervision by the user. The expression is by and large used to illustrate Data Centers (DC) available to many users over the Internet. Nowadays, most of the organizations move into cloud because it helps the end users to store their personal data into the cloud which can be accessed by the user at anytime and anywhere across the globe. The users data is stored and maintained in DC of the cloud providers viz.. Google, Amazon, Microsoft etc. Despite several advantages of using the cloud computing technology, the end users hesitate to utilize the various cloud services and business organizations are unwilling to deploy/set up their businesses in the cloud because of several security threats and issues involved in cloud computing. The main emphasis of our study shall discuss the cloud computing technology , its characteristics, deployment models, service models and the various security issues, challenges related to cloud computing. We shall also present a schematic idea/algorithm which could be used to ensure the security of sensitive data in cloud storage.

Developing a Dynamic Supervision Mechanism to Improve Construction Safety Investment Supervision Efficiency in China: Theoretical Simulation of Evolutionary Game Process.

The construction industry suffers from poor safety performance caused by the joint effect of insufficient safety investment by contractors and inefficient safety supervision by the government because of the information gap between the two sides. The present study aims to put forward a new pathway to improve safety investment supervision efficiency and analyze the decision-making interactions of stakeholders under this new pathway. For this purpose, this study establishes a safety investment information system to eliminate the information gap between the government and contractors for construction projects in China and further develops a dynamic safety investment supervision mechanism based on this. Evolutionary game theory is used to describe the decision-making interactions among stakeholders under the current static supervision mechanism and the dynamic supervision mechanism proposed in this research. Moreover, system dynamics is adopted to simulate the evolutionary game process and analyze the supervision effect and equilibrium state of different supervision mechanisms. The results reveal that the proposed safety investment information system could facilitate the transition of the supervision mode from static to dynamic; the evolutionarily stable strategy does not exist in the current static penalty scenario; and the dynamic supervision mechanism that correlates penalties with contractors’ unlawful behavior probability can restrain the fluctuation of the evolutionary game model effectively and the players’ strategy choices gradually stabilize in the equilibrium state. The results validate the effectiveness of the proposed dynamic supervision mechanism in improving supervision efficiency. This study not only contributes to the literature on safety supervision policy-making but also helps to improve supervision efficiency in practice.

This paper firstly judges the change of credit level of the credit subject from the dynamic perspective of "state-behavior". Then, according to the conditional random field theory, the data of credit behavior and credit status are taken as random variables in the conditional random field to construct multiple characteristic functions representing the relationship between the credit behavior and the credit status. And finally, the credit evaluation system based on the conditional random field is constructed. In summary, this paper constructs a credit evaluation framework of market entities from the credit evaluation system and conditional random field credit labeling, which can be used in the construction of market credit dynamic supervision for reference.

Monitoring of soil erosion caused by construction projects using remote sensing images

The application of Remote Sensing (RS) images to soil erosion monitoring caused by construction projects can meet the needs of dynamic supervision and early warning, and can also significantly improve the efficiency of supervision. In this paper, a technical process for monitoring soil erosion caused by construction projects was proposed. As an example, the high-definition RS survey of the whole city of Zhoushan was carried out. Firstly, the contour lines of the protection range determined during the approval of the construction project were vectorized. Secondly, RS interpretation of perturbation patches of construction projects was carried out with the aid of interpretation marks. Thirdly, preliminary judgment of perturbation compliance was made through the spatial overlay of the interpretation results and approved prevention scope. Finally, field investigation was done to correct the results of RS image analysis. The results show that this technical process can interpret the activity status of construction projects, effectively determine the compliance of perturbation conditions, and improve the efficiency of soil-water conservation supervision.
