It provides great capabilities for many practical applications. In this scheme, the dealer can randomly assign one or more than one participant to get the secret at any time, but these participants can get nothing about the secret before that moment. At the same time, the other participants cannot get anything about the secret by stealing the secret value when it is transferred. However, if the dealer is lost, a certain number or more partidtmnts of them can reoonstruct the secret by ccoperating. In order to clear this concept, an illustrating scheme with geometry method and a practical scheme with algebra method is given.展开更多

A non-interactive optimistic fair exchange e-commerce protocol model based on the publicly verifiable secret sharing is presented. The main idea of our exchange protocol is to interchange verifiable and recoverable keys of the symmetric encryption for participants＇ items. So it is especially suitable for exchange of large-size items. Furthermore, our protocol is efficient and simple as it does not need interactive proof system which has been adopted by a large quantity of previously proposed fair exchange protocols. Based on a modified （2,2） secret sharing scheme, a concrete non-interactive fair exchange e-commerce protocol is designed.展开更多

In this scheme, each shareholder can produce a new share by his algorithm, which is equivalent to the primary one. Together with other shares, the primary secret can be renewed. Since this scheme is constructed not by replacing the primary share with a new share produced by the dealer in his primitive secret sharing scheme, so no matter how much shares the shareholder produces, these shares can not be gathered together to renew the secret in this scheme. Compared with the existing secret sharing schemes, this scheme provides more agility for the shareholders by investing each of them a function but not affect its security.展开更多

A qualified group of participants can recover the secret message without using any cryptographic computation. But the original scheme can easily be corrupted by malicious participant. We propose an extension of VSS(visual secret sharing) to identify cheaters before the secret is recovered. Without the need for any additional information and cryptographic computation, every participant can verify the validity of shares of other participants, thus the security of VSS is enhanced.展开更多

The wrongdoing of the white settlers is normalized in a western conception of possessive logic,the plight of the Aborigines authentically diluted and minimized. This paper thus concludes that The Secret River is another white attempt to legitimize dispossession of the Indigenous and a failure of engagement in the national reconciliation process. This paper further points out that repressing the true history will never set Australia free; acknowledging collective guilt is the only way forward.展开更多

Methods The rats single injection to the drug on tail after fasting but help water 48h, then threading the pyloric ligation at the junction of the pylorus and duodenum, and the animals were fasted and ban water 5h. We remove the total gastrec- tomy, gastric juice was collected and the amount of the volume, and the determination of total acidity、total acidity secretion^pH value. Results L-pantoprazole sodium and pan pantoprazole sodium can significantly reduce the to- tal acidity secretion volume （P 〈 0.05）, increased gastric pH （P 〈 0.01 ）. D-pantoprazole sodium on gastric acid secretion of gastric juice and total PH had no significant effect （ P 〉 0. 05 ）. Conclusion L-pantoprazole sodiumhas significant inhibition of gastric acid secretion, the mechanism of the treatment of peptic ulcer may be through inhibition of proton pump discharge acid effect, to play a role in the protection of gastric mucosa.展开更多

Initial studies have focused on a comparison of single strains of T. aureoviride, T. saturnisporum, T. polysporum, T. longbrachiatum and T. spirale, along with two strains of T. harzianum. All seven strains were grown in synthetic medium supplemented with 2%(w/v) glycerol, to maximize the diversity of extracellular protein production. Samples of secreted protein were separated by 2D gel electrophoresis and will be characterized by MALDI-TOF peptide fingerprinting.展开更多

This kind of scheme overcomes the limitation of the static weighted secret sharing schemes that cannot change the weights in the process of carrying out and the deficiency of low efficiency of the ordinary dynamic weighted sharing schemes for its resending process. Thus, this scheme is more suitable to the case that the number of shareholders needs to be changed randomly during the scheme is carrying out.展开更多
