The Geometry of Uncertainty
The principal aim of this book is to introduce to the widest possible audience an original view of belief calculus and uncertainty theory. In this geometric approach to uncertainty, uncertainty measures can be seen as points of a suitably complex geometric space, and manipulated in that space, for example, combined or conditioned. In the chapters in Part I, Theories of Uncertainty, the author offers an extensive recapitulation of the state of the art in the mathematics of uncertainty. This part of the book contains the most comprehensive summary to date of the whole of belief theory, with Chap. 4 outlining for the first time, and in a logical order, all the steps of the reasoning chain assoc...
Cybersecurity
This book gives a complete introduction to cybersecurity and its many subdomains. It’s unique by covering both technical and governance aspects of cybersecurity and easy to read with 150 full color figures. There are also exercises and study cases at the end of each chapter, with additional material on the book's website. The numerous high-profile cyberattacks being reported in the press clearly show that cyberthreats cause serious business risks. For this reason, cybersecurity has become a critical concern for global politics, for national security, organizations as well as individual citizens. While cybersecurity has traditionally been a technological discipline, the field has grown so l...
Trust Management VI
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th IFIP WG 11.11 International Conference, IFIPTM 2012, held in Surat, India, in May 2012. The 12 revised full papers presented together with 8 short papers and the abstracts of 4 keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 51 submissions. Building on the traditions inherited from the iTrust and previous IFIPTM conferences, IFIPTM 2012 is a multi-disciplinary conference focusing on areas such as: trust models, social, economic and behavioural aspects of trust, trust in networks, mobile systems and cloud computation, privacy, reputation systems, and identity management.
Trust Management II
This volume contains the proceedings of the IFIPTM 2008, the Joint iTrust and PST Conferences on Privacy, Trust Management and Security, held in Trondheim, Norway from June 18 to June 20, 2008. IFIPTM 2008 provides a truly global platform for the reporting of research, development, policy and practice in the interdependent areas of Privacy, Security, and Trust. Following the traditions inherited from the highly successful iTrust and PST conference series, IFIPTM 2008 focuses on trust, privacy and security from multidisciplinary perspectives. The conference is an arena for discussion about re levant problems from both research and practice in the areas of academia, busi ness, and government. ...
Subjective Logic
This is the first comprehensive treatment of subjective logic and all its operations. The author developed the approach, and in this book he first explains subjective opinions, opinion representation, and decision-making under vagueness and uncertainty, and he then offers a full definition of subjective logic, harmonising the key notations and formalisms, concluding with chapters on trust networks and subjective Bayesian networks, which when combined form general subjective networks. The author shows how real-world situations can be realistically modelled with regard to how situations are perceived, with conclusions that more correctly reflect the ignorance and uncertainties that result from partially uncertain input arguments. The book will help researchers and practitioners to advance, improve and apply subjective logic to build powerful artificial reasoning models and tools for solving real-world problems. A good grounding in discrete mathematics is a prerequisite.
Trust, Complexity and Control
An increasing reliance on the Internet and mobile communication has deprived us of our usual means of assessing another party’s trustworthiness. This is increasingly forcing us to rely on control. Yet the notion of trust and trustworthiness is essential to the continued development of a technology-enabled society. Trust, Complexity and Control offers readers a single, consistent explanation of how the sociological concept of ‘trust’ can be applied to a broad spectrum of technology-related areas; convergent communication, automated agents, digital security, semantic web, artificial intelligence, e-commerce, e-government, privacy etc. It presents a model of confidence in which trust and ...
Aspects of Personal Privacy in Communications - Problems, Technology and Solutions
Modern society is rapidly becoming fully digitalized. This has many benefits, but unfortunately, it also means that personal privacy is threatened. The threat does not so much come from a 1984 style Big Brother but rather from a set of smaller big brothers. These small big brothers are companies that we interact with - public services and institutions - and that we invite to our private data. Privacy as a subject can be problematic as it is a personal freedom. In this book, we do not take a political stand on personal privacy and what level of personal freedom and privacy is the correct one. The text instead focuses on understanding what privacy is and some of the technologies that may help ...
Trust Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Trust Management, iTrust 2003, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece in May 2003. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 58 submissions. This first book devoted to the emerging interdisciplinary field of trust management spans the whole range of relevant topics, from technical issues in distributed and open systems to legal, social, and philosophical aspects.
Trust Management IV
This volume contains the proceedings of IFIPTM 2010, the 4th IFIP WG 11.11 International Conference on Trust Management, held in Morioka, Iwate, Japan during June 16-18, 2010. IFIPTM 2010 provided a truly global platform for the reporting of research, development, policy, and practice in the interdependent arrears of privacy, se- rity, and trust. Building on the traditions inherited from the highly succe- ful iTrust conference series, the IFIPTM 2007 conference in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, the IFIPTM 2008 conference in Trondheim, Norway, and the IFIPTM 2009 conference at Purdue University in Indiana, USA, IFIPTM 2010 focused on trust, privacy and security from multidisciplinary persp- ...
