Framework For Assessing Information System Security Posture Risks, Syed Waqas Hamdani
Framework For Assessing Information System Security Posture Risks, Syed Waqas Hamdani
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
In today’s data-driven world, Information Systems, particularly the ones operating in regulated industries, require comprehensive security frameworks to protect against loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability of data, whether due to malice, accident or otherwise. Once such a security framework is in place, an organization must constantly monitor and assess the overall compliance of its systems to detect and rectify any issues found. This thesis presents a technique and a supporting toolkit to first model dependencies between security policies (referred to as controls) and, second, devise models that associate risk with policy violations. Third, devise algorithms that propagate risk when …

Machs: Mitigating The Achilles Heel Of The Cloud Through High Availability And Performance-Aware Solutions, Manar Jammal
Machs: Mitigating The Achilles Heel Of The Cloud Through High Availability And Performance-Aware Solutions, Manar Jammal
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Cloud computing is continuously growing as a business model for hosting information and communication technology applications. However, many concerns arise regarding the quality of service (QoS) offered by the cloud. One major challenge is the high availability (HA) of cloud-based applications. The key to achieving availability requirements is to develop an approach that is immune to cloud failures while minimizing the service level agreement (SLA) violations. To this end, this thesis addresses the HA of cloud-based applications from different perspectives. First, the thesis proposes a component’s HA-ware scheduler (CHASE) to manage the deployments of carrier-grade cloud applications while maximizing their …
The Contributions Of Anatol Rapoport To Game Theory, Erika Simpson
The Contributions Of Anatol Rapoport To Game Theory, Erika Simpson
Political Science Publications
Game theory is used to rationally and dispassionately examine the strategic behaviour of nations, especially superpower behaviour. This article explains how basic game theory - at its simplest level - was used by Anatol Rapoport to generate ideas about how to enhance world peace. Rapoport was at the forefront of the game theoreticians who sought to conceptualize strategies that could promote international cooperation. Accordingly, the basic logic of game theory is explained using the game models of ‘Chicken’ and ‘Prisoner’s Dilemma’. These models were used by Rapoport in his books and lectures in simple and complex ways. Then Rapoport’s revolutionary …
Query Analyzer And Manager For Complex Event Processing As A Service, Wilson Higashino, Cedric Eichler, Miriam A M Capretz, Thierry Monteil, M. Beatriz F. Toledo, Patricia Stolf
Query Analyzer And Manager For Complex Event Processing As A Service, Wilson Higashino, Cedric Eichler, Miriam A M Capretz, Thierry Monteil, M. Beatriz F. Toledo, Patricia Stolf
Electrical and Computer Engineering Publications
Complex Event Processing (CEP) is a set of tools and techniques that can be used to obtain insights from high-volume, high-velocity continuous streams of events. CEP-based systems have been adopted in many situations that require prompt establishment of system diagnostics and execution of reaction plans, such as in monitoring of complex systems. This article describes the Query Analyzer and Manager (QAM) module, a first effort toward the development of a CEP as a Service (CEPaaS) system. This module is responsible for analyzing user-defined CEP queries and for managing their execution in distributed cloud-based environments. Using a language-agnostic internal query representation, …
Contextual Anomaly Detection In Big Sensor Data, Michael Hayes, Miriam A M Capretz
Contextual Anomaly Detection In Big Sensor Data, Michael Hayes, Miriam A M Capretz
Electrical and Computer Engineering Publications
Performing predictive modelling, such as anomaly detection, in Big Data is a difficult task. This problem is compounded as more and more sources of Big Data are generated from environmental sensors, logging applications, and the Internet of Things. Further, most current techniques for anomaly detection only consider the content of the data source, i.e. the data itself, without concern for the context of the data. As data becomes more complex it is increasingly important to bias anomaly detection techniques for the context, whether it is spatial, temporal, or semantic. The work proposed in this paper outlines a contextual anomaly detection …
Evaluation Of Particle Swarm Optimization Applied To Grid Scheduling, Wilson Higashino, Miriam A M Capretz, M. Beatriz F. Toledo
Evaluation Of Particle Swarm Optimization Applied To Grid Scheduling, Wilson Higashino, Miriam A M Capretz, M. Beatriz F. Toledo
Electrical and Computer Engineering Publications
The problem of scheduling independent users’ jobs to resources in Grid Computing systems is of paramount importance. This problem is known to be NP-hard, and many techniques have been proposed to solve it, such as heuristics, genetic algorithms (GA), and, more recently, particle swarm optimization (PSO). This article aims to use PSO to solve grid scheduling problems, and compare it with other techniques. It is shown that many often-overlooked implementation details can have a huge impact on the performance of the method. In addition, experiments also show that the PSO has a tendency to stagnate around local minima in high-dimensional …
Collaborative Policy-Based Autonomic Management In Iaas Clouds, Omid Mola
Collaborative Policy-Based Autonomic Management In Iaas Clouds, Omid Mola
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
With the increasing number of "machines" (either virtual or physical) in a computing environment, it is becoming harder to monitor and manage these resources. Relying on human administrators, even with tools, is expensive and the growing complexity makes management even harder. The alternative is to look for automated approaches that can monitor and manage computing resources in real time with no human intervention. One of the approaches to this problem is policy-based autonomic management. However, in large systems having one single autonomic manager to manage everything is almost impossible. Therefore, multiple autonomic managers will be needed and these will need …
