Blockchain has become one of the key techniques for the security of the industrial internet. However, the blockchain is vulnerable to FAW (Fork after Withholding) attacks. To protect the industrial internet from FAW attacks, this paper proposes a novel FAW attack protection algorithm (FAWPA) based on the behavior of blockchain miners. Firstly, FAWPA performs miner data preprocessing based on the behavior of the miners. Then, FAWPA proposes a behavioral reward and punishment mechanism and a credit scoring model to obtain cumulative credit value with the processed data. Moreover, we propose a miner's credit classification mechanism based on fuzzy C-means (FCM), which combines the improved Aquila optimizer (AO) with strong solving ability. That is, FAWPA combines the miner's accumulated credit value and multiple attack features as the basis for classification, and optimizes cluster center selection by simulating Aquila's predation behavior. It can improve the solution update mechanism in different optimization stages. FAWPA can realize the rapid classification of miners' credit levels by improving the speed of identifying malicious miners. To evaluate the protective effect of the target mining pool, FAWPA finally establishes a mining pool and miner revenue model under FAW attack. The simulation results show that FAWPA can thoroughly and efficiently detect malicious miners in the target mining pool. FAWPA also improves the recall rate and precision rate of malicious miner detection, and it improves the cumulative revenue of the target mining pool. The proposed algorithm performs better than ND, RSCM, AWRS, and ICRDS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Time series have broad usage in the wireless Internet of Things. This article proposes a nonlinear time series prediction algorithm based on the Small-World Scale-Free Network after the AIC-Optimized Subtractive Clustering Algorithm (AIC-DSCA-SSNET, AD-SSNET) to predict the nonlinear and unstable time series, which improves the prediction accuracy. The AD-SSNET is introduced as a reservoir based on the echo state network to improve the predictive capability of nonlinear time series, and combined with artificial intelligence method to construct the prediction model training samples. First, the optimal clustering scheme of randomly distributed neurons in the network is adaptively obtained by the AIC-DSCA, then the AD-SSNET is constructed according to the intra-cluster priority connection algorithm. Finally, the reservoir synaptic matrix is calculated according to the synaptic information. Experimental results show that the proposed nonlinear time series prediction algorithm extends the feasible range of spectral radii of the reservoir, improves the prediction accuracy of nonlinear time series, and has great significance to time series analysis in the era of wireless Internet of Things.
