Epigrafía árabe del Emirato (siglo IX). Lápida de Tudela y estela de una omeya
2018
Repaso de la epigrafía del emirato y del protocolo de sus epitafios, con edición, traducción y estudio de dos piezas labradas con escritura árabe de estilo cúfico «arcaico». Una lápida se halló, fuera de contexto, en excavaciones practicadas junto a la catedral de Tudela; la otra es el epitafio de una dama Omeya descubierto antes de 1960, sin duda en la ciudad de Córdoba. Estas lápidas emirales se incorporan a la treintena de inscripciones conocidas del siglo IX en la Península Ibérica. 
 
 
 
 
MSS: A Multi-Level Data Placement Scheme for Data Survival in Wireless Sensor Networks
2009
In recently popularized unattended wireless sensor networks, sensed data are stored locally or some designated nodes for a long term and retrieved sometime by collectors on demand. Such data may be delete or modified as sensor nodes are always exposed to risks such as random failure and mobile adversary. To maximize the data survival, we propose a secure and efficient scheme - MSS. MSS makes use of hopbounded computational secret sharing to achieve fault tolerance and compromise resilience, and takes advantages of multi-level secret sharing to mitigate communication overhead and improve overall security. MSS has the most advantages in terms of security and efficiency among presented schemes…
A Scheme for Secure and Reliable Distributed Data Storage in Unattended WSNs
2010
Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) operated in hostile environments face a risk on data security due to the absence of real-time communication between sensors and sinks, which imposes sensors to accumulate data till the next visit of a mobile sink to off-load the data. Thus, how to ensure forward secrecy, backward secrecy and reliability of the accumulated data is a great challenge. For example, if a sensor is compromised, pre-compromise data accumulated in the sensor is exposed to access. In addition, by holding key secrecy of the compromised sensor, attackers also can learn post-compromise data in the sensor. Furthermore, in practical UWSNs, once sensors stop working for accident…
New dispatching strategy for the integration of active-demand and distributed storage in the electricity market
2015
The proliferation of Distributed Generation (DG) in power systems calls for a redesign of electricity network management, which should be able to accommodate large amounts of intermittent generation. This issue requires a discussion about the current dispatching regulation, giving distributed storage systems and qualified electricity consumption the opportunity to provide ancillary services to the distribution grid. In this work, a new dispatching strategy for the integration of active-demand and distributed storage in the Italian electricity market is presented. The strategy is focused on a distribution Smart Grid (SG), where customers can indirectly participate to the Day-Ahead (DA) and t…
HybridS: A Scheme for Secure Distributed Data Storage in WSNs
2008
In unattended wireless sensor networks (WSNs), data is stored locally or at designated nodes upon sensing, and users can access it on demand. This paradigm can improve energy efficiency by making use of the upcoming cheap and large flash memory, as well as system robustness. Nevertheless, the security and dependability of distributed storage are critical for the applicability of such WSNs. In this paper, we propose a secure and dependable data storage scheme by taking advantages of secret sharing and Reed-Solomon code, which has computational security and yet maintains optimal data size. The extensive analysis verifies our scheme can provide secure and dependable data storage in WSNs in the…
Technical-economical evaluation for distributed storage applications. An Italian case study for a medium-scale public facility
2014
Time-of-use energy cost management involves the use of storage by customers to reduce their electricity bills. This can be accomplished by charging the storage during off-peak time periods, when electricity energy prices are low, and discharging it during times when on-peak energy prices are applied. This article addresses the question whether it is economically viable to install medium-scale distributed storage devices in the power system designed to lower the electricity cost for a customer-side application, assuming flexible electricity tariffs. The technical/economical evaluation is carried out referring to Lithium ion (Li-ion), Sodium Sulphur (NaS) and Vanadium Redox Battery (VRB) tech…
Stability analysis of Beck's column over a fractional-order hereditary foundation
2018
This paper considers the case of Beck's column resting on a hereditary bed of independent springpots. The springpot possesses an intermediate rheological behaviour among linear spring and linear dashpot. It is defined by means of couple ( C β , β ) that characterize the material of the element and is ruled by a Caputo's fractional derivative. In this paper, we investigate the critical load of the column under the action of a follower load by means of a novel complex transform that allows to use the Routh–Hurwitz theorem in the complex half-plane for the stability analysis.
A distributed data storage and retrieval scheme in unattended WSNs using Homomorphic Encryption and secret sharing
2009
Many data storage schemes have been proposed in the past for keeping dependable data storage, but they are not designed for Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs). When applying these schemes to UWSNs, most of them have limitations such as high storage requirement, transmission cost, and not resilient to a large number of node compromises. To address the problem of data storage, transmission cost, and resilience of node compromise in UWSNs, we propose a novel Homomorphic Encryption and Homomorphic Secret Sharing based scheme (HEHSS) to accomplish the goals of confidentiality, resilience to node compromises, reliability, and efficiency of storage and transmission. Our scheme exploits th…
Optimized secure and reliable distributed data storage scheme and performance evaluation in unattended WSNs
2013
Unattended Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs), characterized by the absence of real-time communication between sensors and sinks, impose sensors to retain data till the next visit of a mobile sink to off-load their data. In such networks, if a sensor is compromised, data accumulated in the sensor are exposed to attackers. In addition, by holding the secret key of the compromised sensor, attackers can also learn post-compromise data accumulated by the sensor. Furthermore, once sensors stop working due to, for instance, node crash or battery depletion, all the accumulated data will be lost. In this paper, we propose a secure and reliable data distribution scheme that addresses these challenges.…
A Monitoring and Management System for Energy Storage Integration in Smart Grids
2019
The integration of distributed storage systems (DSSs) at users and prosumers level can significantly contribute to energy efficiency and increase profits from renewable energy exploitation, thanks to suitable scheduling of charging and discharging periods. On the other hand, to preserve network stability and secure operation, Distribution Systems Operators (DSOs) are interested in DSSs control and cooperation with the grid. In this framework this work proposes a simple monitoring and management system for DSSs scheduling and its integration in a distributed measurement and control system architecture for smart grids. In the paper the proposed algorithm is tested on a simple case study at ho…
