Download or read book Iris Biometric Model for Secured Network Access written by Franjieh El Khoury and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, biometric techniques have proven their ability to provide secure access to shared resources in various domains. Furthermore, software agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) have shown their efficiency in resolving critical network problems. Iris Biometric Model for Secured Network Access proposes a new model, the IrisCryptoAgentSystem (ICAS), which is based on a biometric method for authentication using the iris of the eyes and an asymmetric cryptography method using "Rivest-Shamir-Adleman" (RSA) in an agent-based architecture. It focuses on the development of new methods in biometric authentication in order to provide greater efficiency in the ICAS model. It also covers the pretopological aspects in the development of the indexed hierarchy to classify DRVA iris templates. The book introduces biometric systems, cryptography, and multi-agent systems (MAS) and explains how they can be used to solve security problems in complex systems. Examining the growing interest to exploit MAS across a range of fields through the integration of various features of agents, it also explains how the intersection of biometric systems, cryptography, and MAS can apply to iris recognition for secure network access. The book presents the various conventional methods for the localization of external and internal edges of the iris of the eye based on five simulations and details the effectiveness of each. It also improves upon existing methods for the localization of the external and internal edges of the iris and for removing the intrusive effects of the eyelids.

Download or read book Ubiquitous Computing Fundamentals written by John Krumm and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...a must-read text that provides a historical lens to see how ubicomp has matured into a multidisciplinary endeavor. It will be an essential reference to researchers and those who want to learn more about this evolving field." -From the Foreword, Professor Gregory D. Abowd, Georgia Institute of Technology First introduced two decades ago, the term ubiquitous computing is now part of the common vernacular. Ubicomp, as it is commonly called, has grown not just quickly but broadly so as to encompass a wealth of concepts and technology that serves any number of purposes across all of human endeavor. While such growth is positive, the newest generation of ubicomp practitioners and researchers, isolated to specific tasks, are in danger of losing their sense of history and the broader perspective that has been so essential to the field’s creativity and brilliance. Under the guidance of John Krumm, an original ubicomp pioneer, Ubiquitous Computing Fundamentals brings together eleven ubiquitous computing trailblazers who each report on his or her area of expertise. Starting with a historical introduction, the book moves on to summarize a number of self-contained topics. Taking a decidedly human perspective, the book includes discussion on how to observe people in their natural environments and evaluate the critical points where ubiquitous computing technologies can improve their lives. Among a range of topics this book examines: How to build an infrastructure that supports ubiquitous computing applications Privacy protection in systems that connect personal devices and personal information Moving from the graphical to the ubiquitous computing user interface Techniques that are revolutionizing the way we determine a person’s location and understand other sensor measurements While we needn’t become expert in every sub-discipline of ubicomp, it is necessary that we appreciate all the perspectives that make up the field and understand how our work can influence and be influenced by those perspectives. This is important, if we are to encourage future generations to be as successfully innovative as the field’s originators.
