The TLS Internet Standard, previously known as SSL, is the default protocol for encrypting communications between clients and servers on the Web. Hence, TLS routinely protects our sensitive emails, health records, and payment information against network-based eavesdropping and tampering. For the past 20 years, TLS security has been analyzed in various cryptographic and programming models to establish...
In order to estimate the security of the Web apps, there has been proposed the design and built of a model for evaluating security on Virtual Learning Environments (VLE), starting from the identification of security criteria proposed in handbooks, rules and standards, and there were established objectives and activities that gave patterns for carrying out such process, making emphasis on three criteria:...
X.509v3 certificates are the current standard of verifiable associating an entity with a public key, and are widely used in different networking applications: from HTTPS in browsers, SSH connections, to e-mail, PDF and code signing. This wide usage also necessitates the existence of a robust, reliable way to detect and deal with compromised or otherwise invalid certificates. Certificate Revocation...
A secure and reliable critical infrastructure is a concern of industry and governments. SCADA systems (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) are a subgroup of ICS (Industrial Control Systems) and known to be well interconnected with other networks. It is not uncommon to use public networks as transport route but a rising number of incidents of industrial control systems shows the danger of excessive...
Wotif Group used DevOps principles to recover from the downward spiral of manual release activity that many IT departments face. Its approach involved the idea of "making it easy to do the right thing." By defining the right thing (deployment standards) for development and operations teams and making it easy to adopt, Wotif drastically improved the average release cycle time. This article...
Although there has been significant research and development on automation devices for assisted living, there has always been trade-offs in terms of the cost, complexity, design and efficiency. In this pap er, a state-of-the-art simple and efficient yet cost effective reconfigurable assisted living system is proposed and implemented which will cater for the needs of bed-ridden patients, people with...
The knowledge resources available on the Internet are increasingly being used to support software both at development time and at execution time. These take the form of conventional services as well as human knowledge work both through crowd sourcing and information stored directly on the World Wide Web. But while these resources are vast and rich, they are also unreliable. In this paper, we propose...
Abstract- Many engineers are exposed to binary data. These can be files or data exchanged over network links. When involved in the verification and validation of systems that deal with specific protocols or binary data storage, it is often tedious to analyse the hexadecimal dumps in order to find specific parameters of interest. Despite detailed protocol specifications, it takes a lot of manual effort...
This paper describes the instantiation process of a Verification & Validation (V&V) method developed for evaluating the implementation of Future Internet components in a multi-sectorial environment. ICT systems represent a key competitive factor for enterprises, and new application development paradigms are emerging with e.g. a modular approach based on standard, open and cloud-based components...
The sensor node signal interface is the channel for sensor connecting to sensor node. Therefore, in order to verify the conformance between sensor network signal interface and signal interface standard, the design and implementation of WSN signal interface conformance test system based on web wsa presented. The test content included the signal interface description file, signal type supported by interface,...
Significant efforts have been devoted to creating large scale compute and network testbeds for studying future Internet challenges. Besides large geographic span, the common emphasis is programmability, allowing researchers to reserve or create, via software, flexible sets of compute and network resources over specified topologies to execute research prototypes of new protocols, processes, and applications...
This paper presents our work and experience in designing, implementing and integrating HbbTV 1.5 additions. We extended existing HbbTV software stack which provides functionalities required by HbbTV 1.1 standard. Key additions that HbbTV 1.5 standard brings are EIT schedule (full 7-day EPGs), HTTP adaptive streaming based on the MPEG DASH specification and DASH delivered content protection with DRM...
ICT systems represent a key competitive factor for enterprises. Market competitive pressure, customer expectations and increasing products' complexity require ICT systems to quickly adapt and follow the production processes needs. For such reason, new application development paradigms are emerging. A modular approach based on standard, open and cloud based components is addressing the abovementioned...
Taiwan is going to start 12-year compulsory education in 2014, so education strategies once again become an important issue for research and discussion. The current study used the web-based cooperative learning with Windows Live as a teaching strategy to teach Mathematics course in a junior high school in Taiwan. The subjects, 3 classes of first-year students, were divided into experimental group...
This paper examines how a standards-based pro-competition legal interoperability framework can be applied to ensure future Internet services markets remain open, innovative and competitive. We assess regulatory intervention according to the code solution or solutions used. We analyse the regulatory shaping of “code” standards — the technological environment of the Internet comprising hardware, software...
Cool Edit Pro, a software package for processing audio materials, can greatly enrich and facilitate English listening teaching with its comprehensive, especially easy-to-learn functions. This paper first selects and describes some functions of Cool Edit, i.e., making recordings, extracting audio, editing, and audio adjustments which are believed to meet the basic teaching needs. Then the paper illustrates...
Smart Grid (SG) is the current trend of the power grids in all the world, it will provide more robustness, efficiency, security, reliability, flexibility and quality of service than the current grids that have a lot of time without significant changes in their infrastructure. SG lets self-healing, modern bidirectional communications, more interaction of the users who can decide and know about their...
The technology of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) becomes one of the most important research applications in the area of computer network security, including distributed networks of internet enabled objects (as in the Internet of Things). The overall functionality of SIEM systems depends largely on the quality of solutions implemented at the data storage level, which is purposed for...
Software developers who want to join an existing software development project must first overcome a contribution barrier. The contribution barrier can prevent prospective software developers from joining the project. This contribution barrier comprises technical as well as social hurdles. This paper describes the components of a Wiki Development Environment (WikiDE): A wiki system with which software...
