Orchestrating a Resource-aware Edge

More and more services are moving to the cloud, attracted by the promise of unlimited resources that are accessible anytime, and are managed by someone else. However, hosting every type of service in large cloud datacenters is not possible or suitable, as some emerging applications have stringent latency or privacy requirements, while also handling huge amounts of data. Therefore, in recent years, a new paradigm has been proposed to address the needs of these applications: the edge computing paradigm. Resources provided at the edge (e.g., for computation and communication) are constrained, hence resource management is of crucial importance. The incoming load to the edge infrastructure varies...

Formal Verification of Tree Ensembles in Safety-Critical Applications

In the presence of data and computational resources, machine learning can be used to synthesize software automatically. For example, machines are now capable of learning complicated pattern recognition tasks and sophisticated decision policies, two key capabilities in autonomous cyber-physical systems. Unfortunately, humans find software synthesized by machine learning algorithms difficult to interpret, which currently limits their use in safety-critical applications such as medical diagnosis and avionic systems. In particular, successful deployments of safety-critical systems mandate the execution of rigorous verification activities, which often rely on human insights, e.g., to identify sce...

Middleware for Communications

A state-of-the-art guide to middleware technologies, and their pivotal role in communications networks. Middleware is about integration and interoperability of applications and services running on heterogeneous computing and communications devices. The services it provides - including identification, authentication, authorization, soft-switching, certification and security - are used in a vast range of global appliances and systems, from smart cards and wireless devices to mobile services and e-Commerce. Qusay H. Mahmoud has created an invaluable reference tool that explores the origins and current uses of middleware (highlighting the importance of such technologies as CORBA, J2EE and JMS) a...

Automatic Verification of Parameterized Systems by Over-Approximation

This thesis presents a completely automatic verification framework to check safety properties of parameterized systems. A parameterized system is a family of finite state systems where every system consists of a finite number of processes running in parallel the same algorithm. All the systems in the family differ only in the number of the processes and, in general, the number of systems in a family may be unbounded. Examples of parameterized systems are communication protocols, mutual exclusion protocols, cache coherence protocols, distributed algorithms etc. Model-checking of finite state systems is a well-developed formal verification approach of proving properties of systems in an automa...

Recent research shows that collaboration and social networking can foster knowledge sharing and innovation by sparking new connections, ideas, and practices. Yet these informal networks are often misunderstood and poorly managed. Building on the groundbreaking, bestselling first edition of the Knowledge Management Handbook, this new edition focuses on collaboration and social networking. Topics covered include implementing a knowledge sharing culture, embedding knowledge management activities to encourage collaboration, developing a knowledge retention strategy, applying social network analysis to map knowledge flows, and using systems engineering approaches for collaboration and social networking.
