Prediction-based Manufacturing Center Self-adaptive Demand Side Energy Optimization in Cyber Physical Systems

Cyber physical systems（CPS） recently emerge as a new technology which can provide promising approaches to demand side management（DSM）, an important capability in industrial power systems. Meanwhile, the manufacturing center is a typical industrial power subsystem with dozens of high energy consumption devices which have complex physical dynamics. DSM, integrated with CPS, is an effective methodology for solving energy optimization problems in manufacturing center. This paper presents a prediction-based manufacturing center self-adaptive energy optimization method for demand side management in cyber physical systems. To gain prior knowledge of DSM operating results, a sparse Bayesian learning based componential forecasting method is introduced to predict 24-hour electric load levels for specific industrial areas in China. From this data, a pricing strategy is designed based on short-term load forecasting results. To minimize total energy costs while guaranteeing manufacturing center service quality, an adaptive demand side energy optimization algorithm is presented. The proposed scheme is tested in a machining center energy optimization experiment. An AMI sensing system is then used to measure the demand side energy consumption of the manufacturing center. Based on the data collected from the sensing system, the load prediction-based energy optimization scheme is implemented. By employing both the PSO and the CPSO method, the problem of DSM in the manufac^ring center is solved. The results of the experiment show the self-adaptive CPSO energy optimization method enhances optimization by 5% compared with the traditional PSO optimization method.

This article addresses the secure finite-time tracking problem via event-triggered command-filtered control for nonlinear time-delay cyber physical systems(CPSs)subject to cyber attacks.Under the attack circumstance,the output and state information of CPSs is unavailable for the feedback design,and the classical coordinate conversion of the iterative process is incompetent in relation to the tracking task.To solve this,a new coordinate conversion is proposed by considering the attack gains and the reference signal simultaneously.By employing the transformed variables,a modified fractional-order command-filtered signal is incorporated to overcome the complexity explosion issue,and the Nussbaum function is used to tackle the varying attack gains.By systematically constructing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional,an adaptive event-triggered mechanism is presented in detail,with which the communication resources are greatly saved,and the finite-time tracking of CPSs under cyber attacks is guaranteed.Finally,an example demonstrates the effectiveness.

Reconstruction of measurements in state estimation strategy against deception attacks for cyber physical systems

Without the known state equation, a new state estimation strategy is designed to be against malicious attacks for cyber physical systems. Inspired by the idea of data reconstruction, the compressive sensing （CS） is applied to reconstruction of residual measurements after the detection and identification scheme based on the Markov graph of the system state, which increases the resilience of state estimation strategy against deception attacks. First, the observability analysis is introduced to decide the triggering time of the measurement reconstruction and the damage level from attacks. In particular, the dictionary learning is proposed to form the over-completed dictionary by K-singular value decomposition （K-SVD）, which is produced adaptively according to the characteristics of the measurement data. In addition, due to the irregularity of residual measurements, a sampling matrix is designed as the measurement matrix. Finally, the simulation experiments are performed on 6-bus power system. Results show that the reconstruction of measurements is completed well by the proposed reconstruction method, and the corresponding effects are better than reconstruction scheme based on the joint dictionary and the traditional Gauss or Bernoulli random matrix respectively. Especially, when only 29% available clean measurements are left, performance of the proposed strategy is still extraordinary, which reflects generality for five kinds of recovery algorithms.

Physical layer authentication for automotive cyber physical systems based on modified HB protocol

Automotive cyber physical systems(CPSs)are ever more utilizing wireless technology for V2X communication as a potential way out for challenges regarding collision detection,wire strap up troubles and collision avoidance.However,security is constrained as a result of the energy and performance limitations of modem wireless systems.Accordingly,the need for efficient secret key generation and management mechanism for secured communication among computationally weak wireless devices has motivated the introduction of new authentication protocols.Recently,there has been a great interest in physical layer based secret key generation schemes by utilizing channel reciprocity.Consequently,it is observed that the sequence generated by two communicating parties contain mismatched bits which need to be reconciled by exchanging information over a public channel.This can be an immense security threat as it may let an adversary attain and recover segments of the key in known channel conditions.We proposed Hopper-Blum based physical layer(HB-PL)authentication scheme in which an enhanced physical layer key generation method integrates the Hopper-Blum(HB)authentication protocol.The information collected from the shared channel is used as secret keys for the HB protocol and the mismatched bits are used as the induced noise for learning parity with noise(LPN)problem.The proposed scheme aims to provide a way out for bit reconciliation process without leakage of information over a public channel.Moreover,HB protocol is computationally efficient and simple which helps to reduce the number of exchange messages during the authentication process.We have performed several experiments which show that our proposed design can generate secret keys with improved security strength and high performance in comparison to the current authentication techniques.Our scheme requires less than 55 exchange messages to achieve more than 95%of correct authentication.

A new fractional-order Lorenz system is obtained from the convection of fractional Maxwell fluids in a circular loop. This is the first fractional-order dynamical system derived from an actual physical problem, and rich dynamical properties are observed. In the case of short fluid relaxation time, with the decreasing effective dimension ∑, we find a critical value of the effective dimension ∑cr1, at which the solution of the system undergoes a transition from the chaotic motion to the periodic motion and another critical value ∑cr2（∑cr2 〈∑cr1） at which the regular dynamics of the system returns to the chaotic one. In the case of long relaxation time, the phenomenon of overstability is observed and the decrease of ∑ is found to delay the onset of it.

Interest-Driven Model for Human Dynamics

Empirical observations indicate that the interevent time distribution of human actions exhibits heavy-tailed features. The queuing model based on task priorities is to some extent successful in explaining the origin of such heavy tails, however, it cannot explain all the temporal statistics of human behavior especially for the daily entertainments. We propose an interest-driven model, which can reproduce the power-law distribution of interevent time. The exponent can be analytically obtained and is in good accordance with the simulations. This model well explains the observed relationship between activities and power-law exponents, as reported recently for web-based behavior and the instant message communications.
