Collaborative Financial Infrastructure Protection
The Critical Infrastructure Protection Survey recently released by Symantec found that 53% of interviewed IT security experts from international companies experienced at least ten cyber attacks in the last five years, and financial institutions were often subject to some of the most sophisticated and large-scale cyber attacks and frauds. The book by Baldoni and Chockler analyzes the structure of software infrastructures found in the financial domain, their vulnerabilities to cyber attacks and the existing protection mechanisms. It then shows the advantages of sharing information among financial players in order to detect and quickly react to cyber attacks. Various aspects associated with inf...
New Dimensions of Information Warfare
This book revises the strategic objectives of Information Warfare, interpreting them according to the modern canons of information age, focusing on the fabric of society, the economy, and critical Infrastructures. The authors build plausible detailed real-world scenarios for each entity, showing the related possible threats from the Information Warfare point of view. In addition, the authors dive into the description of the still open problems, especially when it comes to critical infrastructures, and the countermeasures that can be implemented, possibly inspiring further research in the domain. This book intends to provide a conceptual framework and a methodological guide, enriched with viv...
Distributed Computing and Networking
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Networking, ICDCN 2012, held in Hong Kong, China, during January 3-6, 2012. The 36 revised full papers and 1 short paper presented together with 4 poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 100 submissions. The papers address all current issues in the field of distributed computing and networking. Being a leading forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and share best practices, ICDCN also hosts as a forum for PhD students to discuss their research ideas and get quality feedback from the well-renowned experts in the field of distributed computing and computer networking.
The International Workshop Conference
The excellent results obtained from the realization of the two-day meeting on “Modern information and communication technologies in higher education: new education programs, with the pedagogic use of e-learning and education improvement” is, for the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, a great source of pride at international level. Although being the Rector of one of the oldest universities in Europe – the foundation of “La Sapienza” goes back to a papal bull of April 20, 1303 – I did not look for scientific legitimacy, nor attract students resorting to the tradition and to the past. On the contrary, along with my closest collaborators, the teaching and the administrative staff we have tried to move our University forward, accepting all the challenges of the third millennium to scientific research and to hight level training within the Italian education system. Our motto, after all, is: “the future passed here”. (Luigi Frati)
Dependable Computing - EDCC 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th European Dependable Computing Conference, EDCC 2005, held in Budapest, Hungary in April 2005. The 21 revised full papers, 5 revised practical experience reports, and 4 prototype description papers presented together with the abstract of a keynote and 2 fast-track papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 90 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on distributed algorithms, fault-tolerant design and procotols, practical experience reports and tools, assessment and analysis, measurement, hardware verification, dependable networking, and reliability engineering and testing.
Exploring New Frontiers of Theoretical Informatics
In recent years, IT application scenarios have evolved in very innovative ways. Highly distributed networks have now become a common platform for large-scale distributed programming, high bandwidth communications are inexpensive and widespread, and most of our work tools are equipped with processors enabling us to perform a multitude of tasks. In addition, mobile computing (referring specifically to wireless devices and, more broadly, to dynamically configured systems) has made it possible to exploit interaction in novel ways. To harness the flexibility and power of these rapidly evolving, interactive systems, there is need of radically new foundational ideas and principles; there is need to...
Concurrency in Dependable Computing
Concurrency in Dependable Computing focuses on concurrency related issues in the area of dependable computing. Failures of system components, be hardware units or software modules, can be viewed as undesirable events occurring concurrently with a set of normal system events. Achieving dependability therefore is closely related to, and also benefits from, concurrency theory and formalisms. This beneficial relationship appears to manifest into three strands of work. Application level structuring of concurrent activities. Concepts such as atomic actions, conversations, exception handling, view synchrony, etc., are useful in structuring concurrent activities so as to facilitate attempts at copin...
Scientific Engineering for Distributed Java Applications
FIDJI 2002 was an international forum for researchers and practitioners in- rested in the advances in, and applications of, software engineering for distri- ted application development. Concerning the technologies, the workshop focused on “Java-related” technologies. It was an opportunity to present and observe the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas. All papers submitted to this workshop were reviewed by at least two members of the International Program Committee. Acceptance was based primarily on the originality and contribution. We selected for these postworkshop proceedings 16 papers amongst 33 submitted, two tutorials, and two keynotes. FIDJI 2002 was aimed at promoti...
Advances in Air Navigation Services
Provision of air navigation services entered a new era of performance scheme. The performance scheme provides binding targets on four key performance areas of safety, capacity, environment and cost-efficiency. It is imposed that targets are fully achieved, but it is not prescribed how, this being typical for the performance based and goal oriented regulation. Those key performance areas are interlaced by proportional and inversely proportional interdependencies. Namely, for example and simplified into one sentence; if one aims to increase sector capacity with existing human resources (constant staff costs) and not investing into the technology (constant support cost) to achieve improved cost...
Distributed Computing – IWDC 2005
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Distributed Computing, IWDC 2004, held in Kharagpur, India in December 2005. The 28 revised full papers and 33 revised short papers presented together with 5 invited keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 253 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on theory of distributed computing, sensor networks, fault tolerance, optical networks, peer-to-peer networks, wireless networks, network security, grid and networks, middleware and data management, mobility management, and distributed artificial intelligence.
