KEY FACTOR: PARTICULARIZATION MODEL FOR TPM DEPLOYMENT

Tpm- a Key Strategy for Productivity Improvement in Process Industry

During high growth era companies are making technical progress in automation and centralization of the plants, which needs large amount of manual work to maintain the automation systems. The strategy of maintaining the equipment of a plant is crucial for the effectiveness of manufacturing. Total productive maintenance (TPM) is a maintenance program, which involves concepts for maintaining plant...

Extending Secure Execution Environments Beyond the TPM (An Architecture for TPM & SmartCard Co-operative Model)

Enabling Key Migration Between Non-compatible TPM Versions

We consider the problem of migrating keys from TPM 1.2 to the backwards incompatible TPM 2.0. The major di↵erences between the two versions introduce several challenges for deployed systems when support for TPM 2.0 is introduced. We show how TPM 2.0 support can be introduced while still maintaining the functionality specified by TPM 1.2, allowing a smoother transition to the newer version. Spec...

Inflammation, a Key Factor in Cancer Ambush

Inflammatory condition is the consequence of defensive mechanism of immune system against viral and bacterial infection, tissue injury, UV radiation, stress and etc. Persistently acute inflammation leads to chronic phase which is characterized by production of pro-inflammatory mediators from T cells. These molecules (e.g. IL-6, TNF-&alpha, IL-1&beta and IL-17) are mostly pleiotropic cytokines i...

Key Predistribution Schemes for Sensor Networks for Continuous Deployment Scenario

In sensor networks, secure communication among sensor nodes requires secure links and consequently secure key establishment. Due to resource constraints, achieving such key establishment is non-trivial. Recently some random key predistribution techniques have been proposed to establish pairwise keys. Some of these approaches assume certain deployment knowledge is available prior to deployment a...
