§         Tutorial on Control theory in Chaos-based Private Communications

Delivered by: Prof. Gilles Millérioux
Centre de Recherche en Automatique de Nancy,

Nancy University,

France

Dynamical systems play a central role in the design of symmetric cryptosystems. Their use has been widely investigated in ``chaos-based'' private communications. In this workshop, we review and compare different design approaches which have been proposed in the open literature and fully-specified algorithms are detailed for illustration purpose. Issues regarding the efficiency of these algorithms in terms of synchronization abilities and security are discussed. We highlight the reason why some concepts borrowed from control theory appear to be useful to this end.

 

§    Tutorial on  Observer design for chaotic synchronisation

Delivered by: Dr. Krishna Busawon
Northumbria Communication Research Lab,
Northumbria University
UK

This tutorial is a follow up of the tutorial given by Professor Gilles Millerioux. It will basically tackle the issue of observer design for chaotic synchronisation purposes. First, a general overview of linear observer design will be given. Next, the main problems involved in nonlinear observer design will be discussed. The main definitions and concepts such as distinguishability, observability, detectability etc. will be presented. Finally, the use of observers for message recovery purpose in chaotic communication schemes will be discussed. A specific case study will be studied and online simulations (using Matlab/Simulink) will be carried out.

Biography:

Dr. Krishna Busawon is a Reader in the School of Computing, Engineering and Information Sciences at Northumbria University. Before joining Northumbria University in the year 2000, he was a Lecturer in the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering (FIME) at the University of Nuevo León, Mexico. He was also appointed as a Research Fellow at Simon Fraser University in 1997. Prior to that, Dr. Busawon did his PhD research in Control Systems Engineering at the CNRS (Centre National de Recherches Scientifiques) research laboratory - LAGEP, (Laboratoire d’Automatique et de Génie des Procédés) at the University of Lyon, France.  Dr. Busawon research interests are in nonlinear control systems theory in general, with principal interest in nonlinear observer design. He has applied his research to various industrial applications including power, bioprocesses and communication systems.
