Keyword search has been seen in recent years as an attractive way for querying data with some form of structure. Indeed, it allows simple users to extract information from databases without mastering a complex structured query language and without having knowledge of the schema of the data. It also allows for integrated search of heterogeneous data sources. However, as keyword queries are ambiguous and not expressive enough, keyword search cannot scale satisfactorily on big datasets and the answers are, in general, of low accuracy. Therefore, flat keyword search alone cannot efficiently return high quality results on large data with structure. …

Database integrity is crucial to organizations that rely on databases of important data. They suffer from the vulnerability to internal fraud. Database tampering by internal malicious employees with high technical authorization to their infrastructure or even compromised by externals is one of the important attack vectors.
This thesis addresses such challenge in a class of problems where data is appended only and is immutable. Examples of operations where data does not change is a) financial institutions (banks, accounting systems, stock market, etc., b) registries and notary systems where important data is kept but is never subject to change, and c) …

There are three main parts of this system: micro-controller, database, and website. Micro-controller detects motion of people walking in and out and It also measures room temperature and humidity in a confined space then updates collected data to the database. Our system’s database contains 6 main columns: room number, room capacity, number of students, temperature in Celsius, humidity in percent and date created. Finally, this database is queried by the website to display the information on the webpage. Users could also navigate on our site to check the most and least occupy rooms, and they can also search for a …
