This paper describes the design and implementation of
"A multiprocessor node for communication and control"
(MPCC). MPCC is a high speed, high performance local area
network capable of performing real time control tasks. This
is achieved by the concurrent operation of two 8051
microcontrollers, a dual port RAM and the...
As screen resolution and video decoding capability have increased, high-definition (HD) video in resolutions as high as 1920 x 1080 is rapidly becoming the standard. Ad-hoc streaming of HD video over 802.11 wireless networks, e.g., streaming from a mobile device to a television, is convenient for users, but is hampered...
The communication in MLS cross-domain environments faces many challenges. The three most important challenges are efficient key management, privacy preserving and covert channel. We propose an Efficient, Secure and Covert Channel Capacity Bounded Protocol which has three algorithms that addresses these challenges: The Efficient Attribute-based Fine-Grained Authentication (EAFA) algorithm, Anonymous...
Parallel programming is the major stumbling block preventing the parallel processing industry from quickly satisfying the demand for parallel computer software. This research is aimed at solving some of the problems of software development for parallel computers. ELGDF is a graphical language for designing parallel programs. The goal of ELGDF...
The increasing need to share and synchronize personal information, such as schedules, tasks and events, amongst users has lead to the development of inter-personal information management software like ChandlerTM. Chandler is being developed in Python at the Open Source Applications Foundation, San Francisco. Before I started working on the project...
I introduce a compositional approach to application software development. In this approach, an extended entity-relationship diagram (EERD), which represents the component types and the relationship types within an application domain, is used as a template of executable programs in that application domain. As we use structural active objects as the...
Cryptographic devices leak timing and power consumption information that is easily measurable, radiation of various levels, and more. Such devices also have additional inputs, other than plaintext and keys, like voltage, which can be modified to force the device to produce certain faulty outputs that can be used to reveal...
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the new standard for cryptography and has gained wide support as a means to secure digital data. Hence, it is beneficial to develop an implementation of AES that has a high throughput. SIMD technology is very effective in increasing the performance of some cryptographic...
Parallel solutions for two classes of linear programs are
presented. First we parallelized the two-phase revised simplex
algorithm and showed that it is possible to get linear improvement in
performance. The simplex algorithm is the best known algorithm for
solving linear programs, and we claim our result is the best...
We have developed a prototype web-based GIS application for tracking the locations of moving entities. This application, which is called the Responder application, consists of two parts: the Responder client and the Responder server. The Responder client is a .NET application written in C#. It reads the location data from...
