Dear Editor: The article on “Pre-Osteoarthritis: Definition and Diagnosis of an Elusive Clinical Entity” by Ryd et al. is of great interest and importance. The concept and definition of “pre-osteoarthritis” has been a focus of my research program for more than a decade. Some of our prior work was summarized in an open access article from 2012 titled “Early Diagnosis to Enable Early Treatment of...

Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...

Key distribution is an important problem in wireless sensor networks where sensor nodesare randomly scattered in adversarial environments.Due to the random deployment of sensors, a list of keys must be pre-distributed to each sensor node before deployment. To establish a secure communication, two nodes must share common key from their key-rings. Otherwise, they can find a key- path in which ens...

We analyze the handshake protocol of TLS 1.3 draft-ietf-tls-tls13-10 (published October 2015). This continues and extends our previous analysis (CCS 2015, Cryptology ePrint Archive 2015) of former TLS 1.3 drafts (draft-ietf-tls-tls13-05 and draft-ietf-tls-tls13-dh-based). Here we show that the full (EC)DHE Diffie–Hellman-based handshake of draft-10 is also secure in the multi-stage key exchange...
