BEYOND HERD IMMUNITY AGAINST STRATEGIC ATTACKERS

Beyond Herd Immunity Against Strategic Attackers

Herd immunity, one of the most fundamental concepts in network epidemics, occurs when a large fraction of the population of devices is immune against a virus or malware.The few individuals who have not taken countermeasures against the threat are BAG/HUCO Ballasts assumed to have very low chances of infection, as they are indirectly protected by th

Cavity-type hypersonic phononic crystals

We report on the engineering of the Wovens phonon dispersion diagram in monodomain anodic porous alumina (APA) films through the porosity and physical state of the material residing in the nanopores.Lattice symmetry and inclusion materials are theoretically identified to be the main factors which control the hypersonic acoustic wave propagation.Thi
