Static Conflict Detection For A Policy Language, Alix Trou, Robert Dockins, Andrew Tolmach Jan 2015

Static Conflict Detection For A Policy Language, Alix Trou, Robert Dockins, Andrew Tolmach

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

We present a static control flow analysis used in the Simple Unified Policy Programming Language (SUPPL) compiler to detect internally inconsistent policies. For example, an access control policy can decide to both “allow” and “deny” access for a user; such an inconsistency is called a conflict. Policies in Suppl. follow the Event-Condition-Action paradigm; predicates are used to model conditions and event handlers are written in an imperative way. The analysis is twofold; it first computes a superset of all conflicts by looking for a combination of actions in the event handlers that might violate a user-supplied definition of conflicts. SMT …

What’S In A Name?: The Connection Between The Native Americans And The Streets Of Buffalo, 1802-1857, Deirdre Reynolds Jan 2015

What’S In A Name?: The Connection Between The Native Americans And The Streets Of Buffalo, 1802-1857, Deirdre Reynolds

The Exposition

This article focuses on how the street names of Buffalo, New York, have evolved over time in response to shifting sentiment toward the Native American population. Though the street names in Buffalo started off as primarily Germanic and Anglo-Saxon, as tensions rose between the white inhabitants of Buffalo and the Native population, more street names were named with tribal words. This was played out against the dramatic backdrop of Native American legal battles against the city of Buffalo and other land companies for the right to stay on their ancestral lands. In 1857, the Seneca Nation won a landmark case …


Understanding The Adoption Behavior Of Indian Consumers: The Key To Enhance The Diffusion Of Personal Computers, Chitra Krishnaswamy Jan 2015

Understanding The Adoption Behavior Of Indian Consumers: The Key To Enhance The Diffusion Of Personal Computers, Chitra Krishnaswamy

Communications of the IIMA

The market for personal computers, particularly in the household segment, is burgeoning on account of the liberalization, privatization and globalization measures initiated by Government of India. Consequently competition to win over the PC market has intensified. This scenario has enhanced the need for understanding the adoption behavior of the personal computer which would enable marketers to arrive at strategies corresponding to the target markets socio, economic, political, cultural and competitive setting at the macro level and adopter-centered approach at the micro level. This study is based on the collection of primary data from 335 adopters of personal computers and 165 …


On The Applicability Of Data Envelopment Analysis For Multiple Attriliute Decision Making In The Context Of Information Systems Appraisals, Edward W.N. Bernroider, Volker Stix Jan 2015

On The Applicability Of Data Envelopment Analysis For Multiple Attriliute Decision Making In The Context Of Information Systems Appraisals, Edward W.N. Bernroider, Volker Stix

Communications of the IIMA

This article elaborates on the applicability of basic and extended data envelopment analysis (DEA) models for various information system (IS) decision use-cases including illustrative examples from an enterprise resource planning (ERP) software investment appraisal. The usage of data envelopment analysis models and their extensions for IS decisions remains limited. This omission seems critical in particular for two reasons. First, organizational studies have shown that in practice business management fails to appreciate the portfolio of investment appraisal techniques available. Second, DEA based methodologies, especially new extensions, promise valuable insights to support the complex IS decision problem. The results indicate DEA applicability …


Evaluating The Usability Of Union Web Sites In The United States: A Case Study, Christopher M. Lowery, Nicholas A. Beadles Ii Jan 2015

Evaluating The Usability Of Union Web Sites In The United States: A Case Study, Christopher M. Lowery, Nicholas A. Beadles Ii

Communications of the IIMA

Union membership has undergone a dramatic decline and some have hailed the internet as a means for unions to reverse their membership declines. This study examines the usability of union websites. The content of union websites has been analyzed, but the usefulness of that content, and the overall usability of the websites, has not been assessed. In order for unions to fully utilize the internet and realize the potential benefits of cyberspace usage, they must provide websites that users find easy to use and that provide useful content. This study employs Hassan and Li's (2005) benchmarking approach in order to …


Competing Next Generation Wireless Technologies, Warren Adis Jan 2015

Competing Next Generation Wireless Technologies, Warren Adis

Communications of the IIMA

Wireless computing is facing a choice concerning the next telecommunication standard. Two of the new and competing protocol standards for local area and personal networking are 802.1 In and Ultra Wide Band. Each one has its own strengths and weaknesses and both will change wireless networking by dramatically increasing the transmission speed, the QoS and the security of the broadcast. Yet decisions have to be made about which protocol to adopt. The choice rests on a deeper understanding of each protocol, its evolution, compatibility and future direction. This paper analyzes these two competing protocols, discussing their performance and probability for …

Are Cybercrime Laws Keeping Up With The Triple Convergence Of Information, Innovation And Technology?, Ramesh Subramanian, Steven Sedita Jan 2015

Are Cybercrime Laws Keeping Up With The Triple Convergence Of Information, Innovation And Technology?, Ramesh Subramanian, Steven Sedita

Communications of the IIMA

This paper analyzes the emergence and development of cyberlaws. In many coimtries aroxmd the world, cyberlaws are being enacted in order to curb or prosecute cybercriminals. Cybercriminals have very rapidly adlapted to developments in technology, specifically Internet technology, and use its characteristics of transience, anonymity, speed and vast spread to perpetrate various types of crimes. Thus the triple convergence of information, innovation and technology has also aided criminals to practice their nefarious "trade." The paper analyzes how various countries are taking counter measures by enacting cyberlaws. These actions are often slow and reactive rather than proactive. In addition, the laws …


Realizing What Matters, Benjamin Yelle Jan 2015

Realizing What Matters, Benjamin Yelle

Open Access Dissertations

Two thoughts dominate much of the literature on well-being: “What is good for an individual depends upon what that individual is like” and “In some cases an individual is worse off because she is deprived of some putatively essential or basic good even if she cannot be brought to appreciate this fact.” This work is an attempt to capture both of these intuitions to a greater extent than prior theories of well-being. Many well-being theorists call the first thought “the subjective intuition” and consider the latter to concern our intuitions about “deprivation.” While many theories of well- being are able …

Risk Perception In Aviation Students: Weather Matters, Ric Ferraro Phd, Darci Vandyke, Mary Zander, Krista Anderson, Bethany Kuehlen Jan 2015

Risk Perception In Aviation Students: Weather Matters, Ric Ferraro Phd, Darci Vandyke, Mary Zander, Krista Anderson, Bethany Kuehlen

International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace

Sixty-three aviation major students and 71 non-aviation major students participated in an experiment concerning aviation experience and risk perception (Risk Perception Scale, RPS; Hunter, 2002). Non-aviation students rated three of the RPS risk scenarios (P2Fly, P2Life, P2 Base) as having higher perceived risk than aviation students with the exception of the weather risk scenarios (P2WX). Aviation students perceived the P2WX scenarios to be significantly more risky. These results have implications for how future pilots perceive risk.
