Book excerpt: When the Survey Service first came to Bilbeis IV, it found a planet inhabited by humanoid aliens just on the verge of civilization. Then compassion overcame common sense, and David Ware did the one thing the Service prohibited - he interfered. Just a little. But when the Survey Service returned 1,500 years later, it discovered just what David Ware's meddling had done. The bureaucrats of the Survey Service could not afford to allow just a breach of Noninteference to be publicized. So they set out to cover it up. Reports were destroyed, files erased, and people eliminated. For the future of the Survey Service was at stake - and so was the future of Bilbeis IV.

Download or read book Formal Aspects in Security and Trust written by Theo Dimitrakos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-01-19 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust is an essential reference for both academic and professional researchers in the field of security and trust. Because of the complexity and scale of deployment of emerging ICT systems based on web service and grid computing concepts, we also need to develop new, scalable, and more flexible foundational models of pervasive security enforcement across organizational borders and in situations where there is high uncertainty about the identity and trustworthiness of the participating networked entites. On the other hand, the increasingly complex set of building activities sharing different resources but managed with different policies calls for new and business-enabling models of trust between members of virtual organizations and communities that span the boundaries of physical enterprises and loosely structured groups of individuals. The papers presented in this volume address the challenges posed by "ambient intelligence space" as a future paradigm and the need for a set of concepts, tools and methodologies to enable the user's trust and confidence in the underlying computing infrastructure. This state-of-the-art volume presents selected papers from the 2nd International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust, held in conjuuctions with the 18th IFIP World Computer Congress, August 2004, in Toulouse, France. The collection will be important not only for computer security experts and researchers but also for teachers and adminstrators interested in security methodologies and research.

Download or read book Formal Aspects in Security and Trust written by Pierpaolo Degano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-04-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume contains the proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust (FAST 2008), held in Malaga, Spain, October 9-10, 2008. FAST is an event a?liated with the 13th European Sym- sium on Research in Computer Security (ESORICS 2008). FAST 2008 was held under the auspices of the IFIP WG 1.7 on Foundations of Security Analysis and Design. The 5th International Workshop on Formal Aspects in Security and Trust (FAST 2008) aimed at continuing the successful e?ort of the previous three FAST workshop editions for fostering the cooperation among researchers in the areas of security and trust. As computing and network infrastructures become increasingly pervasive, and as they carry increasing economic activity, society needs well-matched security and trust mechanisms. These interactions incre- ingly span several enterprises and involve loosely structured communities of - dividuals. Participants in these activities must control interactions with their partners based on trust policies and business logic. Trust-based decisions - fectively determine the security goals for shared information and for access to sensitive or valuable resources. FAST sought for original papers focusing on formal aspects in: security and trust policy models; security protocol design and analysis; formal models of trustand reputation;logicsfor security andtrust;distributed trust management systems;trust-basedreasoning;digitalassetsprotection;dataprotection;privacy and ID issues; information ?ow analysis; language-based security; security and trust aspects in ubiquitous computing; validation/analysis tools; Web service security/trust/privacy; GRID security; security risk assessment; case studies.

Download or read book China and International Security written by Donovan C. Chau and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 835 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first work of its kind, this strategic assessment of China's national security reveals the nation's intentions, capabilities, and threats—and their implications for the United States and the world. As China continues to develop the strategic means to advance its national interests in Asia and around the world, assessing its role in international security is the greatest strategic challenge now faced by the United States and its allies. China and International Security facilitates this critically important understanding, analyzing topics that range from strategic geography and orientation to gender ratios. Using detailed case studies and sharing expert insights, the work provides historical, internal, and contemporary analyses that reveal the nature and character of China's national security. This three-volume set is written for scholars, students, and policymakers. The volumes offer in-depth articles penned by intelligence professionals and journalists, as well as entries by scholars in fields as diverse as international politics, history, and strategic studies. While other works may attempt to predict the future of China's rise or the nature of China's future bilateral relationships, none so thoroughly examines the totality of China's domestic, regional, and international security—and their implications.
Download or read book Design and Verification of Microprocessor Systems for High Assurance Applications written by David S. Hardin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microprocessors increasingly control and monitor our most critical systems, including automobiles, airliners, medical systems, transportation grids, and defense systems. The relentless march of semiconductor process technology has given engineers exponentially increasing transistor budgets at constant recurring cost. This has encouraged increased functional integration onto a single die, as well as increased architectural sophistication of the functional units themselves. Additionally, design cycle times are decreasing, thus putting increased schedule pressure on engineers. Not surprisingly, this environment has led to a number of uncaught design flaws. Traditional simulation-based design verification has not kept up with the scale or pace of modern microprocessor system design. Formal verification methods offer the promise of improved bug-finding capability, as well as the ability to establish functional correctness of a detailed design relative to a high-level specification. However, widespread use of formal methods has had to await breakthroughs in automated reasoning, integration with engineering design languages and processes, scalability, and usability. This book presents several breakthrough design and verification techniques that allow these powerful formal methods to be employed in the real world of high-assurance microprocessor system design.
