Proactive Attacker Localization in Wireless LAN

This paper addresses the open problem of locating an attacker that intentionally hides or falsifies its position using advanced radio technologies. A novel attacker localization mechanism, called Access Point Coordinated Localization APCL, is proposed for IEEE 802.11 networks. APCL actively forces the attacker to reveal its position information by combining...

Accurate and Efficient Mode Acceleration Data Recovery for Superelement Models

Procedures are described for accurate and efficient mode acceleration data recovery of transient responses for superelement models. The procedures are more accurate than MSC/NASTRAN's standard mode acceleration data recovery method for large super-element models. The procedures are very efficient for large models with few load vectors and large numbers of...

Mostly-Functional Behavior in Java Programs

This paper presents a lightweight type-and-effect system for Java programs that features two major innovations over extant object-oriented effects systems: initialization effects, which are writes to an object's state while it is being constructed, and quiescing fields, which are fields that are never written after an object is constructed. The...

The Non-Linearity of Volatile in Java

Linear logic and related logics such as separation logic and fractional permissions have proven useful in verifying concurrent programs because they make it easy to reason about heap separation properties. However "Volatile" fields in Java are difficult to reason about in strictly linear fashion. Volatile is much more easily handled...

Biological Applications of Multi-Relational Data Mining

Biological databases contain a wide variety of data types, often with rich relational structure. Consequently multi-relational data mining techniques frequently are applied to biological data. This white paper presents several applications of multi-relational data mining to biological data, taking care to cover a broad range of multi-relational data mining techniques.

Fragments: A Lightweight Extension of Java for Pattern Matching

Objects in Object Oriented Programming OOP are of a different nature. Such languages typically allow programmers to construct objects from parameters that may serve as input for computing the initial values of the object's fields but are not necessarily representative of the object's fields themselves. Thus, the implementation of a...

Adding Type Constructor Parameterization to Java

The paper presents a generalization of Java's parametric polymorphism that enables parameterization of classes and methods by type constructors, i.e., functions from types to types. They describe and motivate their extension through two examples: the definition of generic data-types with binary methods and the definition of generalized algebraic data-types. The...

An Inductive Learning System for XML Documents

This paper presents a complete inductive learning system that aims to produce comprehensible theories for XML document classifications. The knowledge representation method is based on a higher-order logic formalism which is particularly suitable for structured-data learning systems. A systematic way of generating predicates is also given. The learning algorithm of...

A Geometric Approach to Improving Active Packet Loss Measurement

Measurement and estimation of packet loss characteristics are challenging due to the relatively rare occurrence and typically short duration of packet loss episodes. While active probe tools are commonly used to measure packet loss on end-to-end paths, there has been little analysis of the accuracy of these tools or their...
