- Optimizing Tunneled Grid Connectivity Across Firewalls
- Grids today generally assume that concurrent network connections are possible among many processors attached to high-capacity networks. However, inter-network boundaries dividing independent institutions often have firewalls, typically to restrict how many and which ports are accessible. In some cases, ports are opened indefinitely for Grid applications, but this compromises security...

- Clustering and Classification of Maintenance Logs Using Text Data Mining
- Spreadsheets applications allow data to be stored with low development overheads, but also with low data quality. Reporting on data from such sources is difficult using traditional techniques. This case study uses text data mining techniques to analyse 12 years of data from dam pump station maintenance logs stored as...

- UserMap - An Adaptive Enhancing of User-Driven XML-to-Relational Mapping Strategies
- As the XML has become a standard for data representation, it is inevitable to propose and implement techniques for efficient managing of XML data. A natural alternative is to exploit features of (object-) relational database systems, i.e. to rely on their long theoretical and practical history. The main concern of...

- Delegation Diagrams: Visual Support for the Development of Object-Oriented Designs
- Developers have long used pictures to aid design activities and there has been a lot of interest in standard notations for design. The paper has developed delegation diagrams, a graphical notation that provides visual support for developing object-oriented designs and that makes the relationship between the requirements and the design...

- Evaluation of a Graduate Level Data Mining Course With Industry Participants
- Data mining courses are increasingly being taught at many universities at both undergraduate and graduate levels. This paper reports on a new graduate level data mining course run for the first time in 2007 at a major Australian university. The course had almost 20% enrolments of industry based participants from...

- Unsupervised Anomaly Detection in Network Intrusion Detection Using Clusters
- Most current network Intrusion Detection Systems IDSs employ signature-based methods or data mining-based methods which rely on labelled training data. This training data is typically expensive to produce. Moreover, these methods have difficulty in detecting new types of attack. Using unsupervised anomaly detection techniques, however, the system can be trained...

- Evaluating Swiftpoint as a Mobile Device for Direct Manipulation Input
- This paper presents a promising new computer pointing device, called Swiftpoint, that is designed primarily for mobile computer (for example, laptop) users in constrained space. Swiftpoint has many advantages over current pointing devices: it is small, ergonomic, has a digital ink mode, and can be used over a flat keyboard....

- Autonomic System Management in Mobile Grid Environments
- Mobile device integration in grid environments is a challenge for many researchers. Due to the transient nature of mobile devices, service management is a critical, but often overlooked area of research. The paper proposes a distributed broker responsible for the autonomic management of grid services. The broker provides self discovery...

- Hybrid Mesh Ad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol
- Wireless Mesh Networks WMNs have recently gained increasing attention and have emerged as a technology with great potential for a wide range of applications. WMNs can be considered as a super-set of traditional Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks MANETs, where the network is comprised of mobile client de-vices MESH CLIENTs. In addition...

- Conflict Management for Real-Time Collaborative Editing in Mobile Replicated Architectures
- Mobile technology is particularly suited to a fully distributed replicated architecture for collaborative work. Users can maintain their own document copies, and can continue to work in the absence of a central server. However, in a replicated architecture, conflicts can occur when two or more users concurrently modify the same...

- A UML 2.0/OCL Extension for Designing Secure Data Warehouses
- At present, it is very difficult to develop a methodology that fulfills all criteria and comprises all security constraints in the successful design of data warehouses. If that methodology were developed, its complexity would hinder its success. The solution, therefore, would be an approach in which techniques and models defined...

- A Simplified Approach to Web Service Development
- Most languages used for developing web services and clients exhibit properties which make calling remote functions across a network a non-trivial task. The author discusses the problems with existing systems and propose a new model for web services development based on an implementation of XSLT that the authors are currently...

- Performance and Cost Tradeoffs in Web Search
- Web search engines crawl the web to fetch the data that they index. This paper re-examines that need, and evaluate the network costs associated with data acquisition, and alternative ways in which a search service might be supported. Based upon an analysis of the Research Finder system it introduces a...

- Establishing Trust in Pure Ad-Hoc Networks
- An ad-hoc network of wireless nodes is a temporarily formed network, created, operated and managed by the nodes themselves. It is also often termed an infrastructure-less, self-organized, or spontaneous network. Nodes assist each other by passing data and control packets from one node to another, often beyond the wireless range...

- Security in Mobile Communications: Challenges and Opportunities
- The nature of mobile communication, characterised for example by terminals having poor user interface and limited processing capacity, as well as complex combination of network protocols, makes the design of security solutions particularly challenging. This paper discusses some of the difficulties system architects are faced with as well as some...

- Non-Invasive Adaptation of Black-Box User Interfaces
- In this paper a new method for the non-invasive adaptation of user interfaces is presented. The main idea is not to implement the user interface toolkit as an API, but instead as an object le that redefines the functionality of the API of an already existing toolkit in a generic...
