Research and Practice on High Availability Scheme of Unified Identity Authentication System Based on CAS in Colleges and Universities

Unified identity authentication has become the basic information service provided by colleges and universities for teachers and students. Security, stability, high concurrency and easy maintenance are our requirements for a unified identity authentication system. Based on the practical work experience of China University of Geosciences (Beijing), this paper proposes a high availability scheme of unified identity authentication system based on CAS, which is composed of multiple CAS Servers, Nginx for load balancing, and Redis as a cache database. The scheme has been practiced in China University of Geosciences (Beijing), and the application effect is good, which has practical reference significance for other universities.

Authentication and Access Control in RFID Based Logistics-customs Clearance Service Platform

The content security requirements of a radio frequency identification （RFID） based logistics-customs clearance service platform （LCCSP） are analysed in this paper. Then, both the unified identity authentication and the access control modules are designed according to those analyses. Finally, the unified identity authentication and the access control on the business level are implemented separately. In the unified identity authentication module, based on an improved Kerberos-based authentication approach, a new control transfer method is proposed to solve the sharing problem of tickets among different servers of different departments. In the access control module, the functions of access controls are divided into different granularities to make the access control management more flexible. Moreover, the access control module has significant reference value for user management in similar systems.

Cluster synchronization of community network with distributed time delays via impulsive control

Cluster synchronization is an important dynamical behavior in community networks and deserves further investigations.A community network with distributed time delays is investigated in this paper.For achieving cluster synchronization,an impulsive control scheme is introduced to design proper controllers and an adaptive strategy is adopted to make the impulsive controllers unified for different networks.Through taking advantage of the linear matrix inequality technique and constructing Lyapunov functions,some synchronization criteria with respect to the impulsive gains,instants,and system parameters without adaptive strategy are obtained and generalized to the adaptive case.Finally,numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

Local Precise Large and Moderate Deviations for Sums of Independent Random Variables

Let {X, X_k : k ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with a common distribution F. In this paper, the authors establish some results on the local precise large and moderate deviation probabilities for partial sums S_n =sum from i=1 to n(X_i) in a unified form in which X may be a random variable of an arbitrary type,which state that under some suitable conditions, for some constants T > 0, a and τ >1/2and for every fixed γ > 0, the relation P(S_n- na ∈(x, x + T ]) ~nF((x + a, x + a + T ]) holds uniformly for all x ≥γn~τ as n→∞, that is, P(Sn- na ∈(x, x + T ]) lim sup- 1 = 0.n→+∞x≥γnτnF((x + a, x + a + T ])The authors also discuss the case where X has an infinite mean.
