  • ASTEK : a multi-paradigm knowledge aquisition tool for complex structured knowledge

    Creator:
    Jacobson, Chris E.
    Abstract:
    Knowledge based systems can require large, highly complex and varied forms of knowledge. An effective knowledge acquisition tool to support such a system should allow the user to transfer and manipulate the different forms knowledge in a manner that is clear and intuitive. ASTEK is a knowledge acquisition tool that...

  • New Approaches to Depth-Based Render Techniques Using Pixel Synchronization

    Creator:
    Pawlowski, Bryan
    Abstract:
    As the nonstop advancement of graphics hardware continues, new features are being added to the graphics pipeline on a regular basis. One of these advancements is called Pixel Synchronization, which allows a graphics programmer more power with certain types of data structures that may be accessed by multiple shader units...

    Creator:
    Tao, Dany
    Abstract:
    "‘Biometrics is at the forefront in our agenda for homeland security,’ declared Asa Hutchinson, the Department of Homeland Security's undersecretary for border and transportation security, at the 2004 Biometric Consortium Conference” [11]. Flashy retinal scanning and voice activated computers were once considered technologies for science fiction movies and novels. Nowadays,...

  • Characterizing Server Compromise: Resilience Models, Instantiations, and Impossibilities

    Creator:
    McQuoid, Ian M.
    Abstract:
    One of the pervasive problems arising in our modern, digital world surrounds data breaches where an adversary, through zero-day exploitations, phishing, or old-fashioned social engineering attacks, gains access to a service’s data stores. Our society increasingly relies on these cloud-based services for everything from our taxes to personal communication. As...

  • New constructions and applications for homomorphic secret sharing and function secret sharing

    Creator:
    Singh, Jaspal
    Abstract:
    A secret sharing scheme allows a dealer to distribute a secret with a set of parties, such that only a certain subset of parties can collaborate and learn the shared secret. Traditional secret sharing schemes have been used as building blocks in various subdomains of cryptography. Recently, two new extensions...

  • A Security Analysis of the Signal Protocol’s Group Messaging Capabilities in Comparison to Direct Messaging

    Creator:
    Jansen, Matthew L.
    Abstract:
    Signal is a multimedia messaging application developed by OpenWhisper Systems in 2015 which allows its users to communicate securely between one another through the use of a complex encryption scheme. The set of algorithms used in combination to provide the services of the Signal application to their users is called...

  • A parallel implementation of the multiple polynomial quadratic sieve

    Creator:
    Perkins, Virgina E.
    Abstract:
    Cryptographic systems are used for secure communications in the government, in industry, and by individuals. Many cryptographic systems base their security on our inability to factor quickly. For this reason, in the last few decades several fast factoring algorithms have been developed. The Quadratic Sieve is one of the best...

  • SIDUR--a formalism for structuring knowledge bases

    Creator:
    Kogan, Dan D.
    Abstract:
    A new class of information intensive applications is emerging [Fuch82; Ohsu82] for which neither Artificial Intelligence (AI) nor Database technologies alone are well suited. Database systems do not provide the general inferential capabilities required for problem solving, while AI techniques have not been adapted to handle massive amounts of structured...

  • Computational methods for protein-protein interface prediction

    Creator:
    Tribelhorn, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    Protein-protein interactions underlie all biological processes and are a field of study that has wide implications throughout many other fields including medicine, genetics, biology, and ecology. Proteins are the building blocks and primary actors of life. They work together to accomplish virtually every task within a cell, including, metabolism, signal...
