TL;DR: The results suggest that the increased probability of an EVD outbreak occurring in a site is linked to recent deforestation events, and that preventing the loss of forests could reduce the likelihood of future outbreaks.
Abstract: Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a contagious, severe and often lethal form of hemorrhagic fever in humans. The association of EVD outbreaks with forest clearance has been suggested previously but many aspects remained uncharacterized. We used remote sensing techniques to investigate the association between deforestation in time and space, with EVD outbreaks in Central and West Africa. Favorability modeling, centered on 27 EVD outbreak sites and 280 comparable control sites, revealed that outbreaks located along the limits of the rainforest biome were significantly associated with forest losses within the previous 2 years. This association was strongest for closed forests (>83%), both intact and disturbed, of a range of tree heights (5–>19 m). Our results suggest that the increased probability of an EVD outbreak occurring in a site is linked to recent deforestation events, and that preventing the loss of forests could reduce the likelihood of future outbreaks.

TL;DR: The ADER scheme for solving systems of linear, hyperbolic partial differential equations in two-dimensions is presented and the linearised Euler equations are used for the simulation of the sound emitted by a co-rotating vortex pair.
Abstract: The ADER scheme for solving systems of linear, hyperbolic partial differential equations in two-dimensions is presented in this paper It is a finite-volume scheme of high order in space and time The scheme is explicit, fully discrete and advances the solution in one single step Several numerical tests have been performed In the first test case the dissipation and dispersion behaviour of the schemes are studied in one space dimension Dispersion as well as dissipation effects strongly influence the discrete wave propagation over long distances and are very important for, eg, aeroacoustical calculations The next test, the so-called co-rotating vortex pair, is a demonstration of the ideas of the two-dimensional ADER approach The linearised Euler equations are used for the simulation of the sound emitted by a co-rotating vortex pair

01 Jan 2018TL;DR: This paper proposes the first access control (CP-ABE) scheme supporting outsourcing capability and attribute update for fog computing, and the security analysis shows that the proposed scheme is secure under the decisional bilinear Diffie–Hellman assumption.
Abstract: Fog computing as an extension of cloud computing provides computation, storage and application services to end users. Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) is a well-known cryptographic technology for guaranteeing data confidentiality and fine-grained data access control. It enables data owners to define flexible access policy for data sharing. However, in CP-ABE systems, the problems of the time required to encrypt, decrypt and attribute update are long-standing unsolved in the literature. In this paper, we propose the first access control (CP-ABE) scheme supporting outsourcing capability and attribute update for fog computing. Specifically, the heavy computation operations of encryption and decryption are outsourced to fog nodes, thus the computation operations for data owners to encrypt and users to decrypt are irrelevant to the number of attributes in the access structure and secret keys, respectively. The cost brought by attribute update is efficient in the sense that we only concentrate on the update of the ciphertext associated with the corresponding updated attribute. The security analysis shows that the proposed scheme is secure under the decisional bilinear Diffie–Hellman assumption. The proposed scheme is efficient, and the time of encryption for data owners and decryption for users are small and constant. The computational ability of fog nodes are fully utilizing during the access control, so the tiny computing cost is left to end users with resource-constrained devices.
