This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Mathematical Methods, Models, and Architectures for Computer Network Security, MMM-ACNS 2003, held in St. Petersburg, Russia in September 2003. The 29 revised full papers and 12 revised short papers presented together with 6 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 62 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on mathematical models and architectures for computer network security; intrusion detection; public key distribution, authentication, and access control; cryptography; and stenography.
Mobile computing is one of the biggest issues of computer technology, science and industry today. This book looks at the requirements of developing mobile computing systems and the challenges they pose to computer designers. It examines the requirements of mobile computing hardware, infrastructure and communications services. Information security and the data protection aspects of design are considered, together with telecommunications facilities for linking up to the worldwide computer infrastructure. The book also considers the mobility of computer users versus the portability of the equipment. The text also examines current applications of mobile computing in the public sector and future innovative applications.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th Seminar on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Informatics, SOFSEM'98, held in Jasna, Slovakia, in November 1998. The volume presents 19 invited survey articles by internationally well-known authorities together with 18 revised full research papers carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The areas covered include history of models of computation, algorithms, formal methods, practical aspects of software engineering, database systems, parallel and distributed systems, electronic commerce, and electronic documents and digital libraries.
th 2002 DEXA, the 13 International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications was held on September 2–6, 2002, at the Université Aix–Marseille II, France. The quickly growing field of information systems required the establishment of more specialized discussion platforms (the DaWaK conference, EC-Web conference, eGOV conference and DEXA workshops), and there were held in parallel with DEXA, also in Aix-en-Provence. The resulting book was prepared with great effort. Starting with the preparation of submitted papers, the papers went through the reviewing process. The accepted papers were revised to final versions by their authors and arranged to the conference program. This ye...
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications held in September 2007. Papers are organized into topical sections covering XML, data and information, datamining and data warehouses, database applications, WWW, bioinformatics, process automation and workflow, knowledge management and expert systems, database theory, query processing, and privacy and security.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Information Security Applications, WISA 2003, held on Jeju Island, Korea, in August 2003. The 36 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 200 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on network security, mobile security; intrusion detection; Internet security; secure software, hardware, and systems; e-commerce security; digital rights management; biometrics and human interfaces; public key cryptography and key management; and applied cryptography.
Information and Process Integration in Enterprises: Rethinking Documents is a bold attempt to address information and process integration issues as a single body of research and practice. This book has identified the concept of documents as a common thread linking the integration issues. Documents, after all, are representations of information, along with representations of the usage of the information contained therein. Rethinking the role of documents is therefore central to (re)engineering enterprises in the context of information and process integration. The chapters of this book are based on papers presented at the `International Working Conference on Information and Process Integration in Enterprises (IPIC '96)', held at MIT on November 14 and 15, 1996. The chapters cover a range of issues: from the future role of documents in enterprise integration, to emerging models of business processes and information use, to practical experiences in implementing new processes and technologies in real work environments. Information and Process Integration in Enterprises: Rethinking Documents is suitable as a secondary text for a graduate level course on information technology.
Claude Draude analyzes embodied software agents – interface solutions that are designed to talk back and give emotional feedback – from a gender and media studies perspective. She addresses technological and sociocultural concepts in their interplay of shifting the boundary between what is considered as human and what as machine. The author discusses the technological realization of specific personality models that define the design of embodied software agents – emotion and gaze models, in particular. Finally, she explores these models in their broader cultural context by relating them to the prominent topic of the Turing test and the notion of the Uncanny Valley.
Since its first volume in 1960, Advances in Computers has presented detailed coverage of innovations in hardware and software and in computer theory, design, and applications. It has also provided contributorswith a medium in which they can examine their subjects in greater depth and breadth than that allowed by standard journal articles. As a result, many articles have become standard references that continue to be of significant, lasting value despite the rapid growth taking place in the field.
This volume contains papers selected for presentation at the 7th Asia Pacific Conference on Web Technology (APWeb 2005), which was held in Shanghai, China during March 29–April 1, 2005. APWeb is an international conference series on WWW technologies and is the primary forum for researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to exchange knowledge on WWW-related technologies and new advanced applications. APWeb 2005 received 420 submissions from 21 countries and regions worldwide, including China, Korea, Australia, Japan, Taiwan, France, UK, Canada, USA, India, Hong Kong, Brazil, Germany, Thailand, Singapore, Turkey, Spain, Greece, Belgium, New Zealand, and UAE.
