Ports constitute crucial intermodal nodes in the freight and passenger transport network as well as important border control points. Their security is therefore of paramount importance not only because of their critical transport functions but also because of their specific role, as control points, in the regional, national and European security. Port security is a cornerstone for the implement...

Though lots of research results about self-healing key management under unreliable links have been proposed, there are still some shortcomings, such as the inefficiency of broadcasts, lack of broadcast authentication, limited sessions for key issues, disastrous risks of access polynomials, and the vulnerability of collusion attacks. In this paper, we propose two modified access polynomial based...

Because the transport expenses are more than a half the national logistics expenses, the increase of the transport expenses becomes the cause of an increase of national logistics expenses. To decrease of the logistics expenses, it has to develop logistics management application. Many Transport Companies are serving monitoring position of the transport vehicle, but the position data of the movin...
