Functionally Accurate, Cooperative Distributed Systems

Victor Lesser, Daniel D. Corkill • IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics (1981)

A new approach for structuring distributed processing systems, called functionally accurate, cooperative (FA/C), is proposed. The approach differs from conventional ones in its emphasis on handling distribution-caused uncertainty and errors...

Visualizing Distributed System Executions

Ivan Beschastnikh, Perry Liu, Albert Xing, Patty Wang et al. • ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (2020)

Distributed systems pose unique challenges for software developers. Understanding the system’s communication topology and reasoning about concurrent activities of system hosts can be difficult. The standard approach, analyzing system logs, ...

Ratings in Distributed Systems: A Bayesian Approach

Lik Mui, Mojdeh Mohtashemi, Cheewee Ang, Peter Szolovits et al. • DSpace@MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) (2002)

For distributed systems at large and e-commerce systems in particular, ratings play an increasingly important role. Ratings confer reputation measures about sources. This paper reports our formalization of the rating process. This paper arg...

Cybersecurity

Geneviève Schméder, Emmanuel Darmois • Routledge eBooks (2018)

All civilian and military activities have become highly dependent on cyberspace. This creates new vulnerabilities both to accidents and intentional threats. Malevolent individuals and organisations may, without any physical presence, infilt...

Cybersecurity

Matthew N.O. Sadiku • CRC Press eBooks (2019)

This chapter begins with cybersecurity features. It covers various forms of cyber threats: cyberattacks, cyberterrorism, and cyberbullying. The chapter addresses cybersecurity governance and the trade-offs between cybersecurity and freedom....

Hacking the Human: The Prevalence Paradox in Cybersecurity

Ben D. Sawyer, Peter A. Hancock • Human Factors The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (2018)

OBJECTIVE: This work assesses the efficacy of the "prevalence effect" as a form of cyberattack in human-automation teaming, using an email task. BACKGROUND: Under the prevalence effect, rare signals are more difficult to detect, even when t...

Cybersecurity in Hospitals: A Systematic, Organizational Perspective

Mohammad S. Jalali, Jessica Kaiser • Journal of Medical Internet Research (2018)

BACKGROUND: Cybersecurity incidents are a growing threat to the health care industry in general and hospitals in particular. The health care industry has lagged behind other industries in protecting its main stakeholder (ie, patients), and ...

Forecasting student achievement in MOOCs with natural language processing

Carly D. Robinson, Michael Yeomans, Justin Reich, Chris S. Hulleman et al. • International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK) (2016)

Student intention and motivation are among the strongest predictors of persistence and completion in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), but these factors are typically measured through fixed-response items that constrain student expressio...

Bayesian Nonparametric Federated Learning of Neural Networks

Mikhail Yurochkin, Mayank Agarwal, Ghosh, Soumya, Kristjan H. Greenewald et al. • arXiv (Cornell University) (2019)

In federated learning problems, data is scattered across different servers and exchanging or pooling it is often impractical or prohibited. We develop a Bayesian nonparametric framework for federated learning with neural networks. Each data...

Artificial neural networks in process engineering

M.J. Willis, Christine Di Massimo, Gary A. Montague, Ming T. Tham et al. • IEE Proceedings D Control Theory and Applications (1991)

Artificial neural networks are made up of highly interconnected layers of simple ‘neuron-like’ nodes. The neurons act as nonlinear processing elements within the network. An attractive property of artificial neural networks is that, given t...

Neural networks for switching

Timothy X. Brown • IEEE Communications Magazine (1989)

The author argues that a strong impetus for using neural networks is that they provide a framework for designing massively parallel machines. He notes that the highly interconnected architecture of switching networks suggests similarities t...
