Event Study Method For Validating Agent-Based Trading Simulations, Shih-Fen Cheng Sep 2010

Event Study Method For Validating Agent-Based Trading Simulations, Shih-Fen Cheng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In this paper, we introduce how one can validate an event-centric trading simulation platform that is built with multi-agent technology. The issue of validation is extremely important for agent-based simulations, but unfortunately, so far there is no one universal method that would work in all domains. The primary contribution of this paper is a novel combination of event-centric simulation design and event study approach for market dynamics generation and validation. In our event-centric design, the simulation is progressed by announcing news events that affect market prices. Upon receiving these events, event-aware software agents would adjust their views on the market …


Revisiting Unpredictability-Based Rfid Privacy Models, Junzuo Lai, Robert Huijie Deng, Yingjiu Li Jun 2010

Revisiting Unpredictability-Based Rfid Privacy Models, Junzuo Lai, Robert Huijie Deng, Yingjiu Li

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Recently, there have been several attempts in establishing formal RFID privacy models in the literature. These models mainly fall into two categories: one based on the notion of indistinguishability of two RFID tags, denoted as ind-privacy, and the other based on the unpredictability of the output of an RFID protocol, denoted as unp-privacy. Very recently, at CCS’09, Ma et al. proposed a modified unp-privacy model, referred to as unp -privacy. In this paper, we first revisit the existing RFID privacy models and point out their limitations. We then propose a new RFID privacy model, denoted as …
