Improving Model Checking Stateful Timed Csp With Non-Zenoness Through Clock-Symmetry Reduction, Yuanjie Si, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Ting Wang
Improving Model Checking Stateful Timed Csp With Non-Zenoness Through Clock-Symmetry Reduction, Yuanjie Si, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Ting Wang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Real-time system verification must deal with a special notion of ‘fairness’, i.e., clocks must always be able to progress. A system run which prevents clocks from progressing unboundedly is known as Zeno. Zeno runs are infeasible in reality and thus must be pruned during system verification. Though zone abstraction is an effective technique for model checking real-time systems, it is known that zone graphs (e.g., those generated from Timed Automata models) are too abstract to directly infer time progress and hence non-Zenoness. As a result, model checking with non-Zenoness (i.e., existence of a non-Zeno counterexample) based on zone graphs only …
Vtrust: A Formal Modeling And Verification Framework For Virtualization Systems, Jianan Hao, Yang Liu, Wentong Cai, Guangdong Bai, Jun Sun
Vtrust: A Formal Modeling And Verification Framework For Virtualization Systems, Jianan Hao, Yang Liu, Wentong Cai, Guangdong Bai, Jun Sun
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Virtualization is widely used for critical services like Cloud computing. It is desirable to formally verify virtualization systems. However, the complexity of the virtualization system makes the formal analysis a difficult task, e.g., sophisticated programs to manipulate low-level technologies, paged memory management, memory mapped I/O and trusted computing. In this paper, we propose a formal framework, vTRUST, to formally describe virtualization systems with a carefully designed abstraction. vTRUST includes a library to model configurable hardware components and technologies commonly used in virtualization. The system designer can thus verify virtualization systems on critical properties (e.g., confidentiality, verifiability, isolation and PCR consistency) …
Efficient Salient Region Detection With Soft Image Abstraction, Ming-Ming Cheng, Jonathan Warrell, Wen-Yan Lin, Shuai Zheng, Vibhav Vineet, Nigel Crook
Efficient Salient Region Detection With Soft Image Abstraction, Ming-Ming Cheng, Jonathan Warrell, Wen-Yan Lin, Shuai Zheng, Vibhav Vineet, Nigel Crook
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Detecting visually salient regions in images is one of the fundamental problems in computer vision. We propose a novel method to decompose an image into large scale perceptually homogeneous elements for efficient salient region detection, using a soft image abstraction representation. By considering both appearance similarity and spatial distribution of image pixels, the proposed representation abstracts out unnecessary image details, allowing the assignment of comparable saliency values across similar regions, and producing perceptually accurate salient region detection. We evaluate our salient region detection approach on the largest publicly available dataset with pixel accurate annotations. The experimental results show that the …
Robust Non-Parametric Data Fitting For Correspondence Modeling, Wen-Yan Lin, Ming-Ming Cheng, Shuai Zheng, Jiangbo Lu, Nigel Crook
Robust Non-Parametric Data Fitting For Correspondence Modeling, Wen-Yan Lin, Ming-Ming Cheng, Shuai Zheng, Jiangbo Lu, Nigel Crook
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We propose a generic method for obtaining nonparametric image warps from noisy point correspondences. Our formulation integrates a huber function into a motion coherence framework. This makes our fitting function especially robust to piecewise correspondence noise (where an image section is consistently mismatched). By utilizing over parameterized curves, we can generate realistic nonparametric image warps from very noisy correspondence. We also demonstrate how our algorithm can be used to help stitch images taken from a panning camera by warping the images onto a virtual push-broom camera imaging plane.
Verifying Linearizability Via Optimized Refinement Checking, Yang Liu, Wei Chen, Yanhong A. Liu, Jun Sun, Shao Jie Zhang, Jin Song Dong Dong
Verifying Linearizability Via Optimized Refinement Checking, Yang Liu, Wei Chen, Yanhong A. Liu, Jun Sun, Shao Jie Zhang, Jin Song Dong Dong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Linearizability is an important correctness criterion for implementations of concurrent objects. Automatic checking of linearizability is challenging because it requires checking that: 1) All executions of concurrent operations are serializable, and 2) the serialized executions are correct with respect to the sequential semantics. In this work, we describe a method to automatically check linearizability based on refinement relations from abstract specifications to concrete implementations. The method does not require that linearization points in the implementations be given, which is often difficult or impossible. However, the method takes advantage of linearization points if they are given. The method is based on …
Modeling And Verifying Hierarchical Real-Time Systems Using Stateful Timed Csp, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Jin Song Dong, Yan Liu, Ling Shi, Étienne André
Modeling And Verifying Hierarchical Real-Time Systems Using Stateful Timed Csp, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Jin Song Dong, Yan Liu, Ling Shi, Étienne André
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Modeling and verifying complex real-time systems are challenging research problems. The de facto approach is based on Timed Automata, which are finite state automata equipped with clock variables. Timed Automata are deficient in modeling hierarchical complex systems. In this work, we propose a language called Stateful Timed CSP and an automated approach for verifying Stateful Timed CSP models. Stateful Timed CSP is based on Timed CSP and is capable of specifying hierarchical real-time systems. Through dynamic zone abstraction, finite-state zone graphs can be generated automatically from Stateful Timed CSP models, which are subject to model checking. Like Timed Automata, Stateful …

Raising The Game: Applying Theory And Analytics To Real-World Threats, Singapore Management University
Perspectives@SMU
Safety and security are, on many levels, essential priorities for governments, businesses and individuals. While an increase of defence and security budgets may bring some assurance of peaceful times to come, it seems the world has no lack of insane perpetrators who can still somehow evade, breach, ambush, assail and attack as they please. Enter the “Bayesian Stackelberg Game”, a game theory model that can, and has been applied rather successfully to the allocation of security resources in the United States by Prof Milind Tambe, University of Southern California.

The Informavore Shopper: Analysis Of Information Foraging, System Design, And Purchasing Behavior In Online Retail Stores, Jeff Min Teck Hong
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Global online retail sales are on the rise and are predicted to experience a double digit growth annually over the next three years. Given little marginal cost involved in adding new products and brands to their catalogues, online retailers tend to increase product and brand offerings to increase sales by selling products that could not have been sold due to space constraints in physical stores. Frank Urbanowski, Director of MIT Press, attributed the 12% increase in sales of backlist titles directly to increased accessibility to these titles through the Internet. For consumers, the ability to buy products that they would …
Fair Cost Sharing Auction Mechanisms In Last Mile Ridesharing, Duc Thien Nguyen
Fair Cost Sharing Auction Mechanisms In Last Mile Ridesharing, Duc Thien Nguyen
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
With rapid growth of transportation demands in urban cities, one major challenge is to provide efficient and effective door-to-door service to passengers using the public transportation system. This is commonly known as the Last Mile problem. In this thesis, we consider a dynamic and demand responsive mechanism for Ridesharing on a non-dedicated commercial fleet (such as taxis). This problem is addressed as two sub-problems, the first of which is a special type of vehicle routing problems (VRP). The second sub-problem, which is more challenging, is to allocate the cost (i.e. total fare) fairly among passengers. We propose auction mechanisms where …
Accountable Trapdoor Sanitizable Signatures, Junzuo Lai, Xuhua Ding, Yongdong Wu
Accountable Trapdoor Sanitizable Signatures, Junzuo Lai, Xuhua Ding, Yongdong Wu
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Sanitizable signature (SS) allows a signer to partly delegate signing rights to a predetermined party, called sanitizer, who can later modify certain designated parts of a message originally signed by the signer and generate a new signature on the sanitized message without interacting with the signer. One of the important security requirements of sanitizable signatures is accountability, which allows the signer to prove, in case of dispute, to a third party that a message was modified by the sanitizer. Trapdoor sanitizable signature (TSS) enables a signer of a message to delegate the power of sanitization to any parties at anytime …
A Study Of The Imitation, Collection And Usability Issues Of Keystroke Biometrics, Chee Meng Tey
A Study Of The Imitation, Collection And Usability Issues Of Keystroke Biometrics, Chee Meng Tey
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
The majority of authentication systems used today involves passwords, where a user is required to remember and key in the correct password to login. Keystroke biometrics is an alternative approach whereby users are identified by one or more features such as (a) the timing between keystrokes, (b) how long users hold each key and (c) how hard users press each key. It is being assumed in prior research that the way one user types a password/word is different from the way another user types the same password and this characteristic remains stable over time. Existing literature however left open three …

Exploiting Human Factors In User Authentication, Payas Gupta
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Our overarching issue in security is the human factor – and dealing with it is perhaps one of the biggest challenges we face today. Human factor is often described as the weakest part of a security system and users are often described as the weakest link in the security chain. In this thesis, we focus on two problems which are caused by human factors in user authentication and propose respective solutions. a) Secrecy information inference attack – publicly available information can be used to infer some secrecy information about the user. b) Coercion attack – where an attacker forces a …

Towards Secure And Usable Leakage-Resilient Password Entry, Qiang Yan
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Password leakage is one of the most common security threats for pervasive password based user authentication. The design of a secure and usable password entry against password leakage remains a challenge since twenty year ago when the first academic proposal attempted to address it. This dissertation focuses on investigating the difficulty in designing leakage-resilient password entry (LRPE) schemes and exploring the feasibility of constructing secure and usable LRPE schemes with the assistance of state-of-the-art technology. The first work in this dissertation reveals the infeasibility of designing practical LRPE schemes in the absence of trusted devices by investigating the inherent tradeoff …

Understanding And Rejecting Errant Touches On Multi-Touch Tablets, Ke Shu
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Given the pervasion of multi-touch tablet, pen-based applications have rapidly moved onto this new platform. Users draw both with bare fingers and using capacitive pens as they would do on paper in the past. Unlike paper, these tablets cannot distinguish legitimate finger/pen input from accidental touches by other parts of the user’s hand. In this thesis, we refer it to as errant touch rejection problem since users may unintentionally touch the screen with other parts of their hand. In this thesis, I design, implement and evaluate new approaches, bezel-focus rejection, of preventing errant touches on multi-touch tablets. I began the …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Low-vision and blind bus riders often rely on known physicallandmarks to help locate and verify bus stop locations (e.g., bysearching for a shelter, bench, newspaper bin). However, there arecurrently few, if any, methods to determine this information apriori via computational tools or services. In this paper, weintroduce and evaluate a new scalable method for collecting busstop location and landmark descriptions by combining onlinecrowdsourcing and Google Street View (GSV). We conduct andreport on three studies in particular: (i) a formative interviewstudy of 18 people with visual impairments to inform the designof our crowdsourcing tool; (ii) a comparative study examiningdifferences between physical …

Managing a technology portfolio is one of the great challenges for sustained success, especially in high-technology industrieswhere technologies can be a major selling point. For engineers, this portfolio is more of a toolbox for solving design problems,but in large organizations there can be so many technologies used in different business areas that even the engineers may not beaware of all of them. When the same technologies are used in different types of products, knowledge about them can also begenerated by various groups within an organization. To improve the usefulness of a company's technology base, this paperproposes the use of a …

Decision Support For Assorted Populations In Uncertain And Congested Environments, Pradeep Reddy Varakantham, Asrar Ahmed, Shih-Fen Cheng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This research is motivated by large scale problems in urban transportation and labor mobility where there is congestion for resources and uncertainty in movement. In such domains, even though the individual agents do not have an identity of their own and do not explicitly interact with other agents, they effect other agents. While there has been much research in handling such implicit effects, it has primarily assumed deterministic movements of agents. We address the issue of decision support for individual agents that are identical and have involuntary movements in dynamic environments. For instance, in a taxi fleet serving a city, …

The Pricing Model Of Cloud Computing Services, Jianhui Huang, Dan Ma
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Cloud computing service providers offer computing resource as a utility and software as a service over network. Many believe that Cloud computing is making an industry-wise paradigm shift for IT use. Besides its technique issues, the business feature of Cloud computing attracts our interests. Specifically the practice of Amazon EC2 introduces an interesting pricing scheme. Amazon provides users with virtual computing instances as a combination of interruptible service (i.e., spot instance) and uninterruptible service (i.e., on-demand and reserved instance). Spot instance is charged at a per use price which is dynamically changing over time; users of spot instance face the …

Dynamic Two-Sided Pricing Under Sequential Innovation, Mei Lin, Xiajun Pan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Many two-sided platforms offer innovative hardware products that improve in quality and enter the market sequentially. We analyze the impact of the decrease in the production cost on a monopoly platform owner's dynamic two-sided pricing problem, in which buyers are strategic and exert a cross-side network effect to the seller side. Our findings show that a greater decrease in cost raises the optimal price of the low-quality product and allocates more buyer-side demand to the future market. Furthermore, such decrease in cost may also lead to a higher optimal price for the future higher-quality product, given a sufficiently significant quality …

In email networks, user behaviors affect the way emails are sent and replied. While knowing these user behaviors can help to create more intelligent email services, there has not been much research into mining these behaviors. In this paper, we investigate user engagingness and responsiveness as two interaction behaviors that give us useful insights into how users email one another. Engaging users are those who can effectively solicit responses from other users. Responsive users are those who are willing to respond to other users. By modeling such behaviors, we are able to mine them and to identify engaging or responsive …
