The energy and buffer constraints are general in DTNs composed of the mobile phones or Pads. This paper proposes a novel opportunistic routing protocol, denoted by Large Opporturioty (LAOP), for the energy and buffer constrained DTNs. The objective of LAOP is to reach many receivers of a message with a small number of transmissions. By LAOP, the sender floods a message when the number of its neighbors is not less than a threshold. We compare the delivery performance of LAOP with other four widely used Delay or Disruption Tolerant Network (DTN) routing protocols, Direct Delivery, Epidemic routing, SprayAndWait and PRoPHET and demonstrate that LAOP can improve the delivery performance and decrease the delivery latency simultaneously.展开更多

To meet the challenge, existing solutions usually implant an ＂attachment＂ in each control transfer. However, the attachment introduces additional cost except performance penalty. For example, the attachment must be unique or restrictedly modified. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to detect integrity of dynamic control flows by counting executed branch instructions without involving any attachment. Our solution is based on the following observation. If a control flow is compromised, the number of executed branch instructions will be abnormally increased. The cause is that intruders usually hijack control flows for malicious execution which absolutely introduces additional branch instructions. Inspired by the above observation, in this paper, we devise a novel system named DCFI- Checker, which detect integrity corruption of dynamic control flows with the support of Performance Monitoring Counter （PMC）. We have developed a proof-of-concept prototype system of DCFI-Checker on Linux fedora 5. Our experiments with existing kemel rootkits and buffer overflow attack show that DCFI- Checker is effective to detect compromised dynamic control transfer, and performance evaluations indicate that performance penaltyinduced by DCFI-Checker is acceptable.展开更多
