TL;DR: A model-based attack is proposed for service degradation of NCS that can remain undetected for the entire plant life and can be applied to any RTE protocols and a detailed analysis of stealth techniques is provided for a specific real use case based on PROFINET.

TL;DR: The architecture of the proposed system is aimed to exploit standard behavior of off-the-shelf UWB transceivers (such as Decawave modules) combined with straightforward software based on the modules APIs, which shows the possibility of obtaining, from all the nodes belonging to the same network, accurate time reference pulses.

TL;DR: The paper describes an experimental evaluation of service latency in a real MV-BPL design for the distribution grid management in Italy and states that 95% of the service requests are transferred on the network with a round-trip time lower than 120 ms even in the case of four hops.

TL;DR: The implementation of mixed scenario SASs, with high-available synchronized Bays together with legacy Bays, is analyzed and a solution for smooth integration is proposed based on the use of an adaptation block that reconstructs the interface signals required by traditional Bay.

TL;DR: A Cognitive Building approach is considered, considering an occupancy rate model able to take into consideration user’ habits and the indoor air quality (IAQ) provided in near real-time by IoT sensors, applied to the eLUX lab building of the campus of the University of Brescia, Italy.
