A new distributed MIKEY mode to secure e-health applications. (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abdmeziem, M. R., Tandjaoui, D., & Romdhani, I. (2016, April). A new distributed MIKEY mode to secure e-health applications. Presented at International Conference on Internet of Things and Big Data (IoTBD 2016)

Securing e-health applications in the context of Internet of Things (IoT) is challenging. Indeed, resources scarcity in such environment hinders the implementation of existing standard based protocols. Among these protocols, MIKEY (Multimedia Interne...

Secret shares to protect health records in Cloud-based infrastructures (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Ukwandu, E., van Deursen, N., Fan, L., Russell, G., Lo, O., & Thuemmler, C. (2015, October). Secret shares to protect health records in Cloud-based infrastructures. Presented at BCS Health Informatics 2015

Increasingly health records are stored in cloud-based systems, and often protected by a private key. Unfortunately the loss of this key can cause large-scale data loss. This paper outlines a novel Cloud-based architecture (SECRET) which supports keyl... Read More about Secret shares to protect health records in Cloud-based infrastructures.

Hybrid Tree-rule Firewall for High Speed Data Transmission (2016)
Journal Article
Chomsiri, T., He, X., Nanda, P., & Tan, Z. (2016). Hybrid Tree-rule Firewall for High Speed Data Transmission. IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing, 1-1. https://doi.org/10.1109/tcc.2016.2554548

Traditional firewalls employ listed rules in both configuration and process phases to regulate network traffic. However, configuring a firewall with listed rules may create rule conflicts, and slows down the firewall. To overcome this problem, we hav...

Viewing speech in action: speech articulation videos in the public domain that demonstrate the sounds of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) (2016)
Journal Article
Nakai, S., Beavan, D., Lawson, E., Leplâtre, G., Scobbie, J. M., & Stuart-Smith, J. (2016). Viewing speech in action: speech articulation videos in the public domain that demonstrate the sounds of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching, 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1080/17501229.2016.1165230

In this article, we introduce recently released, publicly available resources, which allow users to watch videos of hidden articulators (e.g. the tongue) during the production of various types of sounds found in the world’s languages. The articulatio... Read More about Viewing speech in action: speech articulation videos in the public domain that demonstrate the sounds of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

Developing and Debugging Proof Strategies by Tinkering (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lin, Y., Le Bras, P., & Grov, G. (2016, April). Developing and Debugging Proof Strategies by Tinkering. Presented at 22nd International Conference, TACAS 2016, Eindhoven, The Netherlands

Previously, we have developed a graphical proof strategy language, called PSGraph [4], to support the development and maintenance of large and complex proof tactics for interactive theorem provers. By using labelled hierarchical graphs this formalisa... Read More about Developing and Debugging Proof Strategies by Tinkering.

Biologically Inspired Progressive Enhancement Target Detection from Heavy Cluttered SAR Images (2016)
Journal Article

High-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can provide a rich information source for target detection and greatly increase the types and number of target characteristics. How to efficiently extract the target of interest from large amounts of SAR... Read More about Biologically Inspired Progressive Enhancement Target Detection from Heavy Cluttered SAR Images.

Towards workload-aware fine-grained control over cloud resources: student research abstract (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ullah, A. (2016, April). Towards workload-aware fine-grained control over cloud resources: student research abstract. Paper presented at SAC 2016: Symposium on Applied Computing, Pisa, Italy

The systems deployed over cloud are subject to unpredictable workload conditions that vary from time to time, e.g. an ecommerce website may face higher workloads than normal during festivals or promotional schemes. In order to maintain the performanc... Read More about Towards workload-aware fine-grained control over cloud resources: student research abstract.
