Modern society is getting accustomed to the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) for a variety of applications that involves security-critical user data and information transfers. In the lower end of the spectrum, these…
The problem of secret-key based authentication under privacy and storage constraints on the source sequence is considered. The identifier measurement channels during authentication are assumed to be controllable via a cost-constrained…
A large majority of cheap Internet of Things (IoT) devices that arrive brand new, and are configured with out-of-the-box settings, are not being properly secured by the manufactures, and are vulnerable to existing malware lurking on the…
A myriad of IoT devices such as bulbs, switches, speakers in a smart home environment allow users to easily control the physical world around them and facilitate their living styles through the sensors already embedded in these devices.…
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an indispensable diagnostic tool, yet the confined bore and acoustic noise can evoke considerable anxiety and claustrophobic reactions. High anxiety leads to motion artifacts, incomplete scans and…
Internet of Things (IoT) platforms with trigger-action capability allow event conditions to trigger actions in IoT devices autonomously by creating a chain of interactions. Adversaries exploit this chain of interactions to maliciously…
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems are gaining momentum in various applications of logistics, inventory, etc. A generic problem in such systems is to ensure that the RFID readers can reliably read a set of RFID tags, such that…
Internet of Everything (IoE) is a newly emerging trend, especially in homes. Marketing forces toward smart homes are also accelerating the spread of IoE devices in households. An obvious risk of the rapid adoption of these smart devices is…
Today, metro is one of the urban infrastructure and plays an important role in urban transport. The safety and health of people in a city are always important, and transport in the metro should also be safe. When subway trains operate, it…
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) are emerging as a key enabler of Programmable Wireless Environments for 6G, but their practical integration into operational networks still lacks orchestration mechanisms that can jointly support…
To effectively leverage user-specific data, retrieval augmented generation (RAG) is employed in multimodal large language model (MLLM) applications. However, conventional retrieval approaches often suffer from limited retrieval accuracy.…
Wireless communications represent a game changer for future manufacturing plants, enabling flexible production chains as machinery and other components are not restricted to a location by the rigid wired connections on the factory floor.…
The complexity of today's supply chain, organised in several tiers and including many companies located in different countries, makes it challenging to assess the history and integrity of procured physical parts, and to make organisations…
A new cryptographic approach -- Iterated Random Encryption (IRE) -- is presented here. Although it is very simple, and easy to implement, it provides a very high level of security. According to this approach, a sequence of operations…
The preservation of cultural heritage faces growing challenges from climate change, tourism pressure, and limited conservation resources. Existing monitoring solutions are often cost-prohibitive, proprietary, and inflexible, leaving many…
In this paper we present the design and evaluation of a UAV-based system aimed at automating inventory tasks and keeping the traceability of industrial items attached to Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID) tags. To confront current…
Retargeting ads are increasingly prevalent on the Internet as their effectiveness has been shown to outperform conventional targeted ads. Retargeting ads are not only based on users' interests, but also on their intents, i.e. commercial…
Bridging the sim2real gap between computationally inexpensive models and complex physical systems remains a central challenge in machine learning applications to engineering problems, particularly in multi-scale settings where reduced-order…
A multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system operating at terahertz (THz) frequencies and consisting of a transmitter, Alice, that encodes secret keys using Gaussian-modulated coherent states, which are communicated to a legitimate…
Radio frequency identification (RFID), The real-time location of objects and ability to track motion provide a wide range of useful applications in areas such as safety, security and supply chain. In recent years, radio frequency…
