Physical unclonable function based solutions to unification of user, device and data authentication by Zheng, Yue

“…These solutions are typically realized using conventional techniques that require the safekeeping of a secret binary key in the non-volatile memory, or battery-backed SRAM of some device, or a token owned by the user, which have been proven to be vulnerable to various kinds of invasive, semi-invasive and side channel attacks. The non-repudiation assumption of these conventional techniques is being challenged by emerging artificial-intelligent assisted and malware-based attacks on independently chained weak links (factors), and their limited extension to IoT scenarios, where the sheer number of inexpensive and often insufficiently protected endpoints prevent application of standard, secret-key based techniques. …”

Design of digital-intensive time-mode data converters based on delay correction utilising a time-to-digital converter by Kong, Junjie

“…The proposed concept of implementing a time quantiser in a feedback loop is able to linearise output delays up to 700 mV input range, whose linear range was limited to originally just 500 mV, or 100 mV in one of the reported works. Moreover, the inverse voltage-to-time relationship could be avoided with a special delay cell structure that was first proposed in the TDC-based VTC. …”

Time-series metagenomics reveals changing protistan ecology of a temperate dimictic lake by Krinos, Arianna I., Bowers, Robert M., Rohwer, Robin R., McMahon, Katherine D., Woyke, Tanja, Schulz, Frederik

“…Results Based on small subunit rRNA genes extracted from the metagenomes and metagenome-assembled genomes of microeukaryotes, we identify shifts in the eukaryotic phytoplankton community over time, which we predict to be a consequence of reduced zooplankton grazing pressures after the invasion of a invasive predator (the spiny water flea) to the lake. …”
