- Description: Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are responsible for managing factories, power-grids and water treatment facilities, and play a key role in running and controlling national Critical Information Infrastructure (CII). The integrity and availability of these systems are paramount, and the threat of cyberphysical attacks on these systems warrant thorough research into ensuring their security. The increasing interconnectivity seen in both the domestic and industrial sectors exposes numerous devices and systems to the Internet. These devices are exposed to malware and advanced persistent threats, that can affect CII through the attack of ICS. While simulations provide insights into how systems might react to certain changes, they generally lack the ability to be integrated into existing hardware systems. Hybrid testbeds could provide a platform for testing hardware and software components, enabling researchers to examine the interactions between various different networking through exploratory research and investigation in a controlled environment. This work presents an approach to traffic generation for use within ICS/IoT testbeds, through the production of Docker-based simulation nodes that are constructed based on the configuration of the system.

- Description: This paper examines the design and implementation of a wireless system for the distribution of MIDI messages for show control and studio environments. The system makes use of the MIDI and MIDINet protocols, creating wireless nodes that will enable the transmission of MIDI between devices on a wireless network with connection management capabilities through the use of embedded web servers. The paper describes the current state of the art, configuration of the system, hardware architectures, software design, and implementation.
