Byu Students' Beliefs About Language Learning And Communicative Language Teaching Activities, Sarah C. Bakker Dec 2007

Byu Students' Beliefs About Language Learning And Communicative Language Teaching Activities, Sarah C. Bakker

Theses and Dissertations

Learner beliefs, which contribute to attitude and motivation, may affect language learning. It is therefore valuable to investigate the malleability of learner beliefs, and to determine whether potentially detrimental beliefs can be ameliorated. This study examines how instruction of the principles of Second Language Acquisition (SLA) affects students' beliefs about classroom activities and their beliefs about language learning in general. The 68 first-year German students at Brigham Young University who participated in this study were asked to rate the effectiveness of three activities typical of communicative language teaching: Dialogue activities, Peer Interview activities, and Information-gap activities. They were also asked …

Capacitance-Voltage Studies Of Atomic-Layer-Deposited Mos Structrures On Gallium Arsenide And Other Iii-V Compound Semiconductors, Tian Yang Dec 2007

Capacitance-Voltage Studies Of Atomic-Layer-Deposited Mos Structrures On Gallium Arsenide And Other Iii-V Compound Semiconductors, Tian Yang

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Masters Theses

Si-based CMOS devices with traditional structure are approaching the fundamental physical limits. New device structures and materials must be explored to continue the trend of increasing electronic device speed and decreasing size at the same time. Recently, III-V compound semiconductors are considered as novel channel materials to replace Si due to their high electron mobilities. However, the main obstacle to implement III-V as novel channel materials for CMOS application is the lack of high-quality, thermodynamically stable insulators. Thus, systematic studies were carried out on atomic-layer-deposited (ALD) high-k dielectrics on GaAs and other III-V semiconductors. The experiment results show that interface …

Buffer Law And Transitional Roughness Effect In Turbulent Open-Channel Flows, Junke Guo, Pierre Y. Julien Dec 2007

Buffer Law And Transitional Roughness Effect In Turbulent Open-Channel Flows, Junke Guo, Pierre Y. Julien

Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering: Faculty Publications

A novel and complete velocity profile law is presented for turbulent open channel flows. The law embeds the linear law in the viscous sublayer; the quartic law due to turbulent bursting that must satisfy instantaneous mass conservation, the modified log-wake law in the outer region and the effects of wall roughness. Specifically, an arctangent law smoothly connects the linear law with the log law of the wall. Combining the arctangent law with the modified log-wake law, a continuous velocity profile is proposed for smooth boundary conditions. A complete velocity profile is obtained after subtracting a new roughness function. Finally, the …


A Single Channel Attack On 915mhz Radio Frequency Identification Systems, Christopher Bolan Dec 2007

A Single Channel Attack On 915mhz Radio Frequency Identification Systems, Christopher Bolan

Australian Information Security Management Conference

There has been some speculation as to the protection offered by the Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum utilised by RFID technology. This paper explores the construction of an attack based on the broadcast of an attack signal in a single channel. The study details an experiment on two groups of tags where the experimental group are exposed to an attack signal broadcast on a single channel. With consistent findings across both control and experimental groups the experiment clearly demonstrates that FHSS offers no protection against such an attack.


Teaching Php With Security In Mind, Greg Baatard Dec 2007

Teaching Php With Security In Mind, Greg Baatard

Australian Information Security Management Conference

The PHP server-side scripting language has found significant popularity due to its accessibility, simplicity and affordability. With the deployment of PHP-inclusive web development environments becoming easier, universities have begun to offer units of study in the language. However, students coming from a background of HTML-based web development will often not be adequately prepared to consider the security implications associated with a powerful scripting language. It is important that students are taught to recognise and respond to the security implications of their code from an early stage, as a matter of good programming practice. This paper demonstrates how security teachings can …


A Comprehensive Firewall Testing Methodology, Murray Brand Dec 2007

A Comprehensive Firewall Testing Methodology, Murray Brand

Australian Information Security Management Conference

This paper proposes an all encompassing test methodology for firewalls. It extends the life cycle model to revisit the major phases of the life cycle after a firewall is in service as foundations for the tests. The focus of the tests is to show that the firewall is, or isn’t, still fit for purpose. It also focuses on the traceability between business requirements through to policy, rule sets, physical design, implementation, egress and ingress testing, monitoring and auditing. The guidelines are provided by a Test and Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP). The methodology is very much process driven and in keeping …


Increasing Security In The Physical Layer Of Wireless Communication, Luke Golygowski Dec 2007

Increasing Security In The Physical Layer Of Wireless Communication, Luke Golygowski

Australian Information Security Management Conference

This paper introduces a concept of increasing securing in the Physical layer (PHY) of wireless communication. It gives a short description of current status of wireless standards and their security. Despite the existence of advanced security protocols such as IEEE 802.11i or WLAN VPNs, wireless networks still remain vulnerable to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks aiming at PHY and Data Link Layers. The new solution challenges the problems with the currently defined PHY and Data Link layers. The concept introduced here, holds a promise of descending with some of the security measures to the lower layers of the TCP/IP and in this …

The Importance Of Human Factors When Assessing Outsourcing Security Risks, Carl Colwill, Andy Jones

Australian Information Security Management Conference

The word is becoming increasingly interconnected and ways of doing business are evolving rapidly. Communications technology is ubiquitous and reliable and businesses are continuously seeking ways in which systems can be exploited to improve resilience, become more efficient and reduce costs. One way in which organisations seek to achieve this is by concentrating their efforts on core business processes and outsourcing non-core functions. However, outsourcing - and particularly offshoring - presents many security issues that must be considered throughout the lifetime of contracts. The scale of outsourcing and increasing technological and security complexity is making this task more difficult. Often …


The Need For An Investigation Into Possible Security Threats Associated With Sql Based Emr Software, Lee Heinke Dec 2007

The Need For An Investigation Into Possible Security Threats Associated With Sql Based Emr Software, Lee Heinke

Australian Information Security Management Conference

An increasing amount of E-health software packages are being bundled with Standard Query Language (SQL) databases as a means of storing Electronic Medical Records (EMR’s). These databases allow medical practitioners to store, change and maintain large volumes of patient information. The software that utilizes these databases pulls data directly from fields within the database based on standardized query statements. These query statements use the same methods as web-based applications to dynamically pull data from the database so it can be manipulated by the Graphical User Interface (GUI). This paper proposes a study for an investigation into the susceptibility of popular …


Securing Voip: A Framework To Mitigate Or Manage Risks, Peter James, Andrew Woodward Dec 2007

Securing Voip: A Framework To Mitigate Or Manage Risks, Peter James, Andrew Woodward

Australian Information Security Management Conference

In Australia, the past few years have seen Voice over IP (VoIP) move from a niche communications medium used by organisations with the appropriate infrastructure and capabilities to a technology that is available to any one with a good broadband connection. Driven by low cost and no cost phone calls, easy to use VoIP clients and increasingly reliable connections, VoIP is replacing the Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) in a growing number of households. VoIP adoption appears to be following a similar path to early Internet adoption, namely little awareness by users of the security implications. Lack of concern about …
