On Characterizing Information Dissemination During City-Wide Cascading Failures in Smart Grid

IEEE SYSTEMS JOURNAL, 12(4), 3404–3413.

By: M. Wei*, Z. Lu* & W. Wang n

author keywords: Communication networks; computer networks; cyber-physical systems; power system faults; power system protection; smart grids
TL;DR: It is found that information dissemination is not always the winner in the race against fault propagation, and an innovative framework is built, the cascading failure with communications framework, to consolidate both communication networks and power grids. (via Semantic Scholar)

Camouflage Traffic: Minimizing Message Delay for Smart Grid Applications under Jamming

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON DEPENDABLE AND SECURE COMPUTING, 12(1), 31–44.

By: Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & C. Wang*

author keywords: Smart grid; wireless applications; performance modeling; worst-case analysis; message delay; jamming attacks
TL;DR: A lightweight yet promising system, transmitting adaptive camouflage traffic (TACT), is demonstrated, to combat jamming attacks, which minimizes the message delay by generating extra traffic called camouflage to balance the network load at the optimum. (via Semantic Scholar)

On Topology and Resilience of Large-Scale Cognitive Radio Networks Under Generic Failures

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, 14(6), 3390–3401.

By: L. Sun n, W. Wang n & Z. Lu n

author keywords: Resilience; cognitive radio networks; topology; generic failures
TL;DR: This work first defines two metrics, namely the failure occurrence probability p and failure connection function g(·), to characterize node failures and their spreading properties, respectively, and proves that each blackhole is exponentially bounded based on percolation theory.

How can botnets cause storms? Understanding the evolution and impact of mobile botnets

2014 proceedings ieee infocom, 1501–1509.

By: Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & C. Wang*

TL;DR: The last chipper time is defined, which is the last time that service requests, even partially, can still be processed on time as the botnet keeps propagating and launching attacks, and reveals that although increasing network bandwidth can help with mobile services; at the same time, it can indeed escalate the risk for services being disrupted by mobile botnets.

By: Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & C. Wang*

author keywords: Performance modeling; wireless network; time-critical messaging; jamming attack detection; smart grid applications
TL;DR: There exists a phase transition phenomenon for successful time-critical message delivery under a variety of jamming attacks, and a new metric, message invalidation ratio, is introduced to quantify the performance of time- critical applications. (via Semantic Scholar)

Hiding traffic with camouflage: Minimizing message delay in the smart grid under jamming

2012 Proceedings IEEE infocom, 3066–3070.

By: Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & C. Wang*

TL;DR: It is demonstrated via experiments that transmitting camouflage traffic can decrease the probability that a message is not delivered on time in order of magnitude for smart grid applications, indicating that the worst-case message delay is a U-shaped function of network traffic load.

From jammer to gambler: Modeling and detection of jamming attacks against time-critical traffic

2011 proceedings ieee infocom, 1871–1879.

By: Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & C. Wang*

TL;DR: A new metric, message invalidation ratio, is introduced, to quantify the performance of time-critical applications and shows that there in general exists a phase transition phenomenon for a time- critical application under jamming attacks. (via Semantic Scholar)

On network performance evaluation toward the smart grid: A case study of DNP3 over TCP/IP

2011 ieee global telecommunications conference (globecom 2011).

By: X. Lu n, Z. Lu n, W. Wang n & J. Ma*

TL;DR: A micro smart grid is established to measure the delay performance of a predominant SCADA protocol, distributed network protocol 3.0 (DNP3) over TCP/IP, and results indicate that DNP3 over UDP can be further optimized in terms of delay efficiency, and a lightweight communication protocol is essential for time-critical smart grid applications.
