- Ensuring Data Storage Security in Cloud Computing
- Cloud Computing has been envisioned as the next-generation architecture of IT Enterprise. In contrast to traditional solutions, where the IT services are under proper physical, logical and personnel controls, Cloud Computing moves the application software and databases to the large data centers, where the management of the data and services...

- Capturing solar energy from asphalt pavements
- Massachusetts researchers have found a new method for capturing solar energy. They're using heat from asphalt and other paved surfaces to produce electricity. Through asphalt, 'the researchers are developing a solar collector that could turn roads and parking lots into ubiquitous -- and inexpensive -- sources of electricity and hot...

- Semantic Query Optimization for Processing XML Streams With Minimized Memory Footprint
- XQuery evaluation over XML streams requires the temporary buffering of XML elements. This paper presents a semantic query optimization solution to minimize memory footprint during XQuery evaluation by exploiting schema knowledge. The focus is on one particular class of constraints, namely, the Pattern Non-Occurrence PNO constraints for XML streams conforming...

- Automaton in or Out: Run-Time Plan Optimization for XML Stream Processing
- Many systems such as Tukwila and YFilter combine automaton and algebra techniques to process queries over tokenized XML streams. Typically in this architecture, an automaton is first used to locate all query patterns in the input stream and compose the matched tokens into XML element nodes. These XML nodes are...

- An Optimized Two-Step Solution for Updating XML Views
- This paper proposes an efficient solution for the XML view update problem. A progressive translatability checking approach is used to guarantee that only translatable updates are fed into the actual translation system to obtain the corresponding SQL statements. The solution is efficient since the authors perform schema-level thus very inexpensive...

- AutoDomainMine: A Graphical Data Mining System for Process Optimization
- This paper describes a graphical data mining system called AutoDomainMine. It is based on the proposed approach of integrating clustering and classification to mine scientific data stored in a database. The data consists of input conditions of scientific experiments and graphs plotted as their results. This system mines the stored...

- Experimental Evaluation of Energy-Based Denial-of Service Attacks in Wireless Networks
- Battery energy is frequently the most limiting resource on mobile devices. Energy-Based Denial-of-Service (e-Dos) attacks, in which malicious attackers initiate actions that can deplete the battery of a mobile node, have recently emerged. The feasibility of such attacks has been demonstrated at various layers of the network protocol stack and...

- Multi-User Broadcast Authentication in Wireless Sensor Networks
- Broadcast authentication is a critical security service in Wireless Sensor Networks WSNs, as it allows the mobile users of WSNs to broadcast messages to multiple sensor nodes in a secure way. Although symmetric-key-based solutions such as µTESLA and multilevel µTESLA have been proposed, they all suffer from severe energy-depletion attacks...

- Making Better Use of All Those TCP ACK Packets
- Many TCP connections show an asymmetric traffic pattern where significantly more data is sent in one direction than the other resulting in large numbers of ACK-only packets to be generated. This paper proposes and evaluates two independent approaches for how to make better use of the available space in TCP...

- Visualization of Spatio-Temporal Data Quality
- This paper presents a technique for visualizing the quality of data which has both spatial and temporal attributes. The authors use a model of quality which incorporates both characteristics of the data gathering equipment as well as the model used to interpolate data at arbitrary locations in space and time....
