“…The intelligent collaborative evolution customized industrial Internet of Things (IoT) has also demonstrated superiority and stability in this regard [38]. Finally, to protect against various attacks that may occur in distributed and resource-limited networks, a resilient and secure device-to-device communication framework for emergencies called RESCUE has been proposed, which provides comprehensive protection against common attacks [39].…”

Due to the inappropriate or untimely distribution of post-disaster goods, many regions did not receive timely and efficient relief for infected people in the coronavirus disease outbreak that began in 2019. This study develops a model for the emergency relief routing problem (ERRP) to distribute post-disaster relief more reasonably. Unlike general route optimizations, patients’ suffering is taken into account in the model, allowing patients in more urgent situations to receive relief operations first. A new metaheuristic algorithm, the hybrid brain storm optimization (HBSO) algorithm, is proposed to deal with the model. The hybrid algorithm adds the ideas of the simulated annealing (SA) algorithm and large neighborhood search (LNS) algorithm into the BSO algorithm, improving its ability to escape from the local optimum trap and speeding up the convergence. In simulation experiments, the BSO algorithm, BSO+LNS algorithm (combining the BSO with the LNS), and HBSO algorithm (combining the BSO with the LNS and SA) are compared. The results of simulation experiments show the following: (1) The HBSO algorithm outperforms its rivals, obtaining a smaller total cost and providing a more stable ability to discover the best solution for the ERRP; (2) the ERRP model can greatly reduce the level of patient suffering and can prioritize patients in more urgent situations.

“…While physical representation can build trust and closeness in neighborhoods, digital representation enables users to coordinate mutual aid and pooling of resources [12]. Hence, an app that enables participation must establish fundamental trust, which requires both identification and privacy, even during a crises [37] Identities that enable citizens to know who they are interacting with and a design considering patterns of trust [21] form the basis of cryptography that enables trustworthy and secure communication [13]. Moreover, users are more likely to accept an app as trustworthy when it respects their privacy by providing information and affording them control over communication with other individuals [29].…”

“…Confidential messaging, known from apps such as Signal and Threema, must establish trusted identities [13]. We plan a pairing process where citizens meet in-person to extend trust from physical identities to digital ones [37]. Digital identities are linked using secure device pairing (SDP) and short-range communication, either using QR codes or acoustic communication [25].…”

When facing major crisis events, such as earthquakes, flooding, or attacks on infrastructure, people start to organize within their neighborhoods. While this has historically been an analog process, people now use collaboration or messenger apps to support their self-organization. Unfortunately, these apps are not designed to be resilient and fail with communication infrastructure outages when servers are no longer available. We provide a resilience concept with requirements derived from an interdisciplinary view enabling citizens to communicate and collaborate in everyday life and during crisis events. Our human-centered prototype integrates concepts of nudging for crisis preparedness, decentralized and secure communication, participation, smart resource management, historical knowledge, and legal issues to help guide further research.

“…The intelligent reflector technology proposed in recent years is a low-cost and low-power solution to break through the above bottlenecks [12,13]. The intelligent reflector is a reprogrammable passive reflection array technology, which can effectively improve the communication link quality and the communication system coverage by improving the electromagnetic wave propagation environment [14].…”

Compared with traditional cellular network architecture, cloud access network has some significant advantages in spectrum utilization, energy consumption and network construction cost. However, a high-quality forward link is required between the baseband processing unit pool and remote radio head (RRH) in the cloud access network, which results in limited RRH deployment and affects user access link transmission and coverage. To solve this issue, this paper introduces the intelligent reflector technology into the cloud access network as a solution with low energy consumption, low cost and easy deployment to deal with the existing bottlenecks. Firstly, an efficient channel information acquisition strategy based on federated learning is designed for the smart reflector to enhance the user access link, so as to achieve a compromise between the channel estimation accuracy and cost. On this basis, a robust beamforming design and optimization method of the compression mechanism of the forward link are proposed for the smart reflector to enhance the user access link and the wireless forward link, so as to improve the system transmission performance. Finally, we explore the joint resource allocation method of intelligent reflector assisted cloud access network, and improve the system energy efficiency through the collaborative configuration of intelligent reflector and cloud access network communication resources. The research of this paper will provide an important theoretical basis for the application of intelligent reflectors in cloud access networks, especially for the federated learning.
