Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a promising solution to build programmable wireless environment for future communication systems, in which the reflector elements steer incident signal fully customizable ways by passive beamforming. In this paper, an IRS-aided secure spatial modulation (SM) proposed, where IRS perform beamforming and information transfer simultaneously adjusting on-off s...

Worms are self-replicating malicious programs that represent a major security threat for the Internet, as they can infect and damage a large number of vulnerable hosts at timescales where human responses are unlikely to be effective. Sophisticated worms that use precomputed hitlists of vulnerable targets are especially hard to contain, since they are harder to detect, and spread at rates where ...

Equimolar quantities of [WI(CO)(NCMe)(dppm)(/72-MeC2Me)][BF4] {dppm = Ph2P(CH2)PPh2} and NaSR (R = Et. Bu', Ph or CH2Ph) react in CH2C12 at room temperature to give the neutral thiolate complexes [WI(SR)(CO)(dppm)(?72-MeC2Me)] (1 —» 4) in good yield. The complex [WI(CO)(NCMe)(dppm)(?72-MeC2Me)][BF4] also reacts with two equiv­ alents of NaSR (R = Et. Bu'. Ph or CH?Ph) in CH2C12 at room temperat...

Sophisticated worms that use precomputed hitlists of vulnerable targets are especially hard to contain, since they are harder to detect, and spread at rates where even automated defenses may not be able to react in a timely fashion. Recent work has examined a proactive defense mechanism called Network Address Space Randomization (NASR) whose objective is to harden networks specifically against ...
