Machine Learning White-Hat Worm Launcher for Tactical Response by Zoning in Botnet Defense System.

Malicious botnets such as Mirai are a major threat to IoT networks regarding cyber security. The Botnet Defense System (BDS) is a network security system based on the concept of "fight fire with fire", and it uses white-hat botnets to fight against malicious botnets. However, the existing white-hat Worm Launcher of the BDS decides the number of white-hat worms, but it does not consider the white-hat worms' placement.

Internal crack characteristics in very-high-cycle fatigue of a gradient structured titanium alloy.

Gradient structure (GS) is commonly designed and processed in engineering materials to improve mechanical properties especially fatigue performance by taking advantage of the strengthened surface. However, whether the very-high-cycle fatigue (VHCF) property can be improved by GS is questioning due to the different crack initiation mechanisms between low-, high-cycle and VHCF. In this paper, GS of a Ti-6Al-4V alloy is generated by pre-torsion and characterized by electron backscatter diffraction.
