Development of Tool Support within the Domain of Risk-Driven Security Testing

Today, there exists a wide range of services and applications across several platforms that are prone to attacks. Attackers find new ways to exploit malfunctions and vulnerabilities within these systems every day. There is an increase in cyber security risks and targeted attacks towards the public, industry and governments by the use of the web, social media, mobile devices, cloud services and so on. Therefore, security must be considered thoroughly in the software development life cycle, to minimise the risks represented by either an attacker, the intended user of the system, or other non-human causes that might lead to catastrophic damage to a system. The security testing community has met these challenges by proposing an approach to security testing that is supported by security risk assessment. This approach is commonly referred to as risk-driven security testing and aims to focus testing on the most severe risk a system is exposed to. The field of risk-driven security testing is relatively new and immature. Thus, lacks formality, preciseness and dedicated tool support. As a response to this, the CORAL approach has been proposed. The CORAL approach is an approach that provides a domain-specific risk analysis language and a method to conduct risk-driven security testing, consequently, providing more formality and preciseness. However, the approach needs to be supported by dedicated tool support in order to aid security testers further. This thesis investigates how the CORAL approach can be supported by a tool, in order to fulfil the overall aim of introducing proper tool support for the domain of risk-driven security testing. We propose a tool developed as a plug-in for the Eclipse Papyrus tool, which supports the CORAL approach. The risk analysis language in our tool adopts a textual notation as opposed to the graphical notation defined for the CORAL risk analysis language. Consequently, as part of the development and evaluation process of the tool, we conducted an empirical study to investigate whether the textual notation adopted by the tool had any impact on comprehensibility in comparison to graphical notation. The results of our empirical study indicate that there is no significant difference with respect to comprehensibility. Moreover, our results show that the tool is appropriate for security testers in terms of carrying out risk-driven security testing following the CORAL approach, including defining security test cases.
Interference and inhibition in cognition.

HOLMES, P., KARP, M. , & WATSON, M. (Eds.) Psychodrama since Moreno: innovations in theory and practice. New York, NY: Routledge, 1994. Pp. xii + 309. $22.95. Eighteen psychodramatists comment on the contributions of Jacob Levy Moreno to psychodrama and how its multifarious methods and themes have developed since Moreno's death in 1974. The twelve chapters are separated into three parts, encounter as the principle of change, the locus and status nascendi of psychodrama, and the matrix of psychodrama, with each author or set of authors taking a key concept of Moreno and describing how it has inspired their clinical work. Included are a discussion of the moral philosophy and ethics of psychodrama by his son, discussions of relationships and roles, religion and spirit, role reversal, spontaneity and creativity, and more. A brief biography is also included. This is an interesting look at the intellectual legacy of a complex man and is useful for anyone interested in the history and current development of psychodrama.
An IgM λ antibody to Escherichia coli produces false-positive results in multiple immunometric assays

Background: Interferences in immunometric assays as a result of human anti-immunoglobulin antibodies frequently have been described in the literature. The etiology of these interfering antibodies is usually not known but has been associated with rheumatoid factors in some assays. It is known that microorganisms in experimental settings can induce anti-immunoglobulin antibodies. Methods: Following Escherichia coli septicemia, a 56-year-old male patient had increased immunoassay results for cardiac troponin I, thyrotropin, human chorionic gonadotropin, α-fetoprotein, and CA-125 that were consistent with myocardial infarction, hyperthyroidism, and pregnancy, and suggestive of an occult neoplasm such as hepatic or ovarian cancer. None of these diagnoses were consistent with the rest of his medical exam. In addition, the patient had a restricted IgM λ paraprotein by immunofixation. Plasma from the patient was incubated with Sepharose-conjugated protein A, irrelevant murine monoclonal antibodies, and formalin-killed E. coli organisms from his infection to determine whether these immunoassay values were falsely increased. Results: Incubation of the patient’s plasma with irrelevant murine monoclonal antibodies or the E. coli organism produced normal immunoassay values and removed the IgM λ paraprotein. Conclusions: The patient produced a very restricted IgM λ antibody response to the E. coli infection that had anti-immunoglobulin activity and caused falsely increased values in numerous immunometric assays. Microorganism-induced anti-immunoglobulin antibodies are discussed in the context of this patient.
Monday Mornings: Individual Investor Trading on Days of the Week and Times Within a Day

Abstract Individual investors’ demand for trading activity will vary over time according to their availability and desire to trade. Academic research has primarily investigated market wide trading activity, showing low trading activity on Mondays and high activity at the start and end of each day. It remains unknown whether individual investors’ trading behavior mimics these market patterns. Instead research on individual investors shows that they overtrade in general and are less likely to trade losses. We research trading activity for 7 200 UK investors, finding these investors actually prefer trading on Mondays and trade in a W-shaped intraday pattern. Further investigation revealed that investors increased their selling of losses on Monday mornings, suggesting investors utilize spare time to process difficult trading decisions.
More dangerous than dyads: how a third party enables rationalist explanations for war

For the bargaining model of war, in the absence of incomplete information and commitment problems, war is irrational. But this finding rests on a simple and rarely discussed assumption, that bargaining is between exactly two participants. When we relax this assumption, in a three-player bargaining game, war is an equilibrium. Thus, a key finding of the bargaining model, that there is always an agreement that all states prefer war, is an artifact of dyadic analysis. By removing this limitation, we can find new factors that affect the risk of war: the number of actors, divergence in state preferences, alliance dynamics, and the issue being bargained over.
A STUDY ON PREVALENCE AND TREATMENT OF ANHIDROSIS IN HORSES

A total of 290 horses were examined to determine the prevalence of Anhidrosis, find suitable therapy and to record effect of the condition on serum glucose level. The affected horses were divided in two groups i.e. group A received sodium chloride orally 80 grams for 3 days along with injection lasix 100 mg (10ml) for 3 days and ample drinking water. Group B received thyroxin 50 mg orally daily for 3 days , vitamin E 2000 IU orally, normal saline and ample drinking water. The prevalence of Anhidrosis was found to be 12.41 percent (36/290). Serum glucose levels were on higher side in affected horses which returned to normal after recovery, however, blood cholesterol level remained same before and after treatment. In group A and B 33(5/15) and 73.33(11/15) percent horse showed recovery, respectively.
Parallel Backpropagation Neural Network Training Techniques using Graphics Processing Unit

Training of artificial neural network using back-propagation is a computational expensive process in machine learning. Parallelization of neural networks using Graphics Pro-cessing Unit (GPU) can help to reduce the time to perform computations. GPU uses a Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) architecture to perform high speed computing. The use of GPU shows remarkable performance gain when compared to CPU. This work discusses different parallel techniques for the backpropagation algorithm using GPU. Most of the techniques perform comparative analysis between CPU and GPU.
MINI REVIEW Carbohydrate sulfotransferases in lymphocyte homing

Sulfation is a critical modification in many instances of biological recognition. Early work in lymphocyte homing indicated that the endothelial ligands for L-selectin depended upon sulfation modifications. Subsequent studies showed that the two specific modifications, Gal-6-SO4 and GlcNAc-6-SO4, were present on actual biological ligands. Recently, a family of carbohydrate sulfotransferases capable of generating these modifications has been identified at the molecular level. Reconstitution experiments implicate members of this family as critical participants in lymphocyte homing.
Proposal of Pseudochattonella verruculosa gen. nov., comb. nov. (Dictyochophyceae) for a formar raphidophycean alga Chattonella verruculosa, based on 18S rDNA phylogeny and ultrastructural characteristics

Chattonella verruculosa Y. Hara et Chihara was re‐examined by molecular methods and microscopic examination. The 18S rDNA phylogenetic analysis clearly indicated that C. verruculosa is a member of the Dictyochophyceae, with a specific affinity to Florenciella parvula. The morphological features in C. verruculosa– namely the proximal helix with two gyres and many scattered DNA‐containing areas in the chloroplasts – display the evolutionary link to the Dictyochophyceae, instead of the Raphidophyceae. Similarly, unique pyrenoid morphologies are shared between C. verruculosa and the dictyochophycean algae. Combining the molecular data and morphological characteristics, C. verruculosa is transferred to Pseudochattonella gen. nov. of the class Dictyochophyceae as Pseudochattonella verruculosa (Y. Hara et Chihara) Hosoi‐Tanabe, Honda, Fukaya, Inagaki et Sako comb. nov.
On Two New Species of Enterobius from the Monkey Lagothrix humboldtii

The material here described was obtained from the large intestine of a Humboldt's Woolly Monkey (Lagothrix humboldtii) which died at the Zoological Gardens, London, about a month after it had been received there. In addition to the Enterobius infection there was a severe infection with Ascaris lumbricoides, involving both liver and small intestine. A single specimen of Necator was present, and along with the Enterobius were two immature female worms of doubtful identity, which are also described in this paper.
Assessment on dietary protein requirement of sandfish (Holothuria scabra) through growth response and plasma insulin-like growth factor-1 profile

A growth trial was undertaken to investigate dietary protein requirement of the sub adult sandfish, Holothuria scabra, using correlation of growth rate and plasma IGF-1 concentrations. The sand fish (n = 6 per treatment, average wet weight 21.5g ± 2.5 S.D.) were fed one of the seven diets containing various levels of proteins at the ration of 3% of the body weight, once a day for 6 weeks. The analysis of IGF-1 was performed from pooled data per treatment using Bovine IGF-1 kit. Results revealed that protein doses affected the specific growth rate (SGR), and the food conversion ratio (FCR) with the 10% protein dose gave the best result. Plasma concentration of IGF-1 was positively correlated with protein dose and specific growth rate in the sandfish. The 10% protein dose produced highest SGR, but the IGF-1 concentration was not significantly different from other treatments. It could be concluded that both SGR and plasma IGF-1 concentration were affected by protein dose in the diet. The sandfish was expected to require 10-35% protein in the diet as suitable rearing dose.
Growth Response of Selected Mangrove Species to Domestic Sewage and Abiotic Stress

The sewage system of Dar es Salaam City, Tanzania, serves only 15% of the population, making sewage one of the leading sources of marine pollution. This study was initiated to assess the potential of peri-urban mangrove forests as filters and phyto-remediators of sewage and the growth of two mangrove species under sewage-inundated conditions. One-year old Avicennia marina and Rhizophora mucronata wildlings were planted in 10 l buckets and treated with 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% domestic sewage in triplicates for 12 h, 24 h or 1 week under a split-split plot design. Growth and physico-chemical characteristics of the system were recorded monthly for four months. Treated mangroves grew better than untreated plants and A.marina outperformed R. mucronata. Inundation with 75100% sewage was more effective than <50% sewage but no significant differences were observed due to the relatively brief experimental period. Irrespective of the species, pH and electric conductivity (EC) increased by the end of each inundation. P and N removal by plants was highest in 50 and 75% sewage. Additionally, three sulfide levels of 0, 0.75 x 10-3, 1.5 x 10-3 M NH2S affected mangrove growth when applied in seawater concentrations of 0, 50 and 100%.
Enhancing the main characteristics of active methodologies: A case with Micro Flip Teaching and Teamwork

All active methodologies have common objectives and processes. Their mission is to ensure that students participateactively in the learning process, cooperating with other students, reflecting, making decisions and creating knowledge. Forthis purpose, groups that work in a timely manner to carry out an activity or in a more stable way through work teams areusually formed. In both cases, active learning takes place within the groups. This work proposes fostering an active inter-team learning; that is, forming a meta-team where active learning takes place. The aim is checking if students who follow anactive methodology, have the active habit; that is, if the work teams share knowledge among themselves and use it toimprove their own knowledge. The proposed model contains a virtual layer that all teams can access, making possible thecooperation, the creation of new knowledge, reflection and decision making. This model is applicable to any activemethodology and the proposed model has been applied to the Micro Flip Teaching methodology. This quasi experimentalresearch methodology, based on quantitative and qualitative assessment, shows how the work teams, in an Engineeringcontext, in this case, use this virtual layer and how that use impacts the academic performance of their members. Anotherconclusion of this work is that feedback must be included in active methodologies.
Genome size and base composition of seven Quercus species: inter- and intra-population variation

Seven Quercus species, four deciduous (Q. cerris, Q. petraea, Q. pubescens, and Q. robur) and three evergreen (Q. coccifera, Q. ilex, and Q. suber), were assessed for DNA content. Their genome sizes ranged from 1.88 to 2.00 pg/2C, namely an interspecific DNA content variation of 6%. In addition, the DNA content of several populations of Q. petraea and Q. robur with different geographical origins, French and Croatian, was estimated. DNA content did not vary among four populations of Q. robur, but did differ between two populations of Q. petraea, the French population having a higher 2C DNA value than the Croatian. The genome size of this French population showed important dispersion among 10 measured individuals. This was in accordance with subsequent cytogenetic data that revealed extra chromosomes in some individuals from this population. The percent GC varied little between the species; a GC content of 39.9% is established as typical for oak.
Effect of industrial processing on desert truffles (Terfezia claveryi Chatin and Picoa juniperi Vittadini): proximate composition and fatty acids

Our objectives were to investigate the proximate composition of two desert truffles (Terfezia claveryi Chatin and Picoa juniperi Vittadini) and to determine the effects of freezing and canning on proximate composition. The moisture content of T claveryi and P juniperi was 730.9 g kg−1 and 637.8 g kg−1 respectively; ash was 42.5 g kg−1 and 82.1 g kg−1 respectively; protein was 159.5 g kg−1 and 225.4 g kg−1 respectively; lipids were 69.5 g kg−1 and 199.4 g kg−1 respectively; fibre was 83.2 g kg−1 and 130.4 g kg−1 respectively; and carbohydrates were 645.5 g kg−1 and 366.6 g kg−1 respectively. The fatty acids composition showed high quantities of linoleic acid 18:2 (45.4% in T claveryi and 53.0% in P juniperi), the rest of the fatty acids in decreasing order were 16:0 > 18 : 1 > 18 : 3 18 : 0 + 22 : 0 > 20 : 0 + 24 : 0 > 14 : 0 + 22 : 1 > 15 : 0 + 16 : 1 + 17 : 0 + 21 : 0 in T claveryi and 18 : 1 > 16 : 0 > 18 : 0 + 18 : 3 + 16 : 1 + 20 : 0 + 22 : 1 > 14 : 0 + 24 : 0 > 15 : 0 + 17 : 0 + 22 : 0 in the P juniperi. Little loss of ash, protein and lipids was observed as a result of industrial processing (p < 0.05). Copyright © 2003 Society of Chemical Industry
Bioturbation changes the patterns of benthic emergence in zooplankton

We investigated the effects of two functionally different deposit feeders, the amphipod Monoporeia affinis and the bivalve Macoma balthica, on the benthic emergence of copepods (Acartia spp., Eurytemora affinis, Temora longicornis), cladocerans (Bosmina longispina maritima, Daphnia spp.), and rotifers (Synchaeta spp., Keratella spp., Notholca spp.) in the northern Baltic Sea. We performed 3.5‐week laboratory experiments in June‐July and in September‐October using surface sediment containing zooplankton eggs and various combinations of amphipod and bivalve densities. Both zoobenthic species increased egg mortality rates in Synchaeta spp. and in calanoids. Each amphipod consumed a maximum of one Synchaeta spp. egg and 31 calanoid eggs per day, while the bivalves consumed six Synchaeta and 143 calanoid eggs per day. Monthly consumption throughout the community matches or even exceeds the field densities of eggs. In summer, M. affinis decreased the daily emergence rate of Synchaeta spp. by 31‐53% and of M. balthica by 57%. The effect on calanoids was less severe: the emergence rate of Acartia spp. and E. affinis was significantly suppressed only by M. balthica (the reduction was 48% and 28% in Acartia spp. and in E. affinis, respectively). T. longicornis was the only species that benefited from macrofauna: together the two zoobenthic species resulted in a 2.7‐fold increase in the emergence of this calanoid. Bioturbation significantly influences the benthic emergence of zooplankton, with effects varying among species, and may thus affect the dynamics of pelagic populations.
In vitro organogenesis and plant regeneration from leaves of Actinidia eriantha Benth. cv White (kiwifruit)

Abstract Plantlets were regenerated from leaf explants of Actinidia eriantha Benth. cv White (kiwifruit). The best medium for adventitious shoot formation from leaf blade strips was Murashige-Skoog (MS) medium with 0.1 mg L−1 NAA and 2.0 mg L−1 BA. The frequency of shoot regeneration (%) was dependent on the size and the part of the leaf from which the explant was taken. The highest frequency of shoot regeneration was 7.30±2.61 shoots per explant, for explants taken from within 0–3 cm of the leaf blade base, near a vein and not on the leaf edge. When using petiole-derived explants, a maximum frequency of adventitious shoot regeneration of 79.17% with 6.54±2.31 shoots per explant was obtained using 0.1 mg L−1 NAA and 2.0 mg L−1 ZT in MS medium. The highest rate of rooting obtained was 96.67% when using 1/2 MS medium containing 0.6 mg L−1 IBA and 93.75% when using wet moss without IBA. This is the first report to study the effect of explants taken from different parts of the leaf blade on shoot regeneration in A. eriantha. All plantlets were transferred to pots of peat/perlite and grown on before being planted in the field. Plantlets were successfully acclimatized to field conditions and produced healthy plants.
Keeping Context In Mind: Automating Mobile App Access Control with User Interface Inspection

Recent studies observe that app foreground is the most striking component that influences the access control decisions in mobile platform, as users tend to deny permission requests lacking visible evidence. However, none of the existing permission models provides a systematic approach that can automatically answer the question: Is the resource access indicated by app foreground? In this work, we present the design, implementation, and evaluation of COSMOS, a context-aware mediation system that bridges the semantic gap between foreground interaction and background access, in order to protect system integrity and user privacy. Specifically, COSMOS learns from a large set of apps with similar functionalities and user interfaces to construct generic models that detect the outliers at runtime. It can be further customized to satisfy specific user privacy preference by continuously evolving with user decisions. Experiments show that COSMOS achieves both high precision and high recall in detecting malicious requests. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of COSMOS in capturing specific user preferences using the decisions collected from 24 users and illustrate that COSMOS can be easily deployed on smartphones as a real-time guard with a very low performance overhead.

Salinity and temperature effects on the growth and chlorophyll-α content of some planktonic aigae

The effect of salinity (0-40 %o) and temperature (11-36oC, at 5oC intervals) variations on maximum growth rate (div d-1), maximum yield (logio cell number) and chlorophyll-α content (pg cell-1) of four planktonic algae was examined under laboratory conditions. Phaeodactylum tricornutum grew over the entire range of experimental salinities, at 11-26 oC. The highest maximum growth rates ( 1.6 div d-1) occurred between 9-30 %o and 16-26 oC. Optimum salinity range for maximum yield (7.0) was found at 9-35 %c, under 16 oC. Tetraselmis gracilis reproduced from 4 to 40 %o at 11-31 oC, with the highest values of maximum growth rate ( 1.6 div d-1) and maximum yield (6.1) occurring at salinities between 14-40 %o at 11-21 oC and 11-16 oC, respectively. Minutocellus polymorphic and Chaetoceros sp grew between 9-40 %o and 11-31 oC. Their highest maximum growth rates (2.1 and 2.6 div d-1, respectively) were found at 31oC, between 20-35 %o and 20-40 %o, respectively. The highest maximum yields for AT. polymorphic (7.2) were recorded between 16-21 oC at 20-40 %o and for Chaetoceros sp (6.8), between 25-40 %o at 16-31oC. Chlorophyll-a content per cell was not conspicuously associated to temperature and salinity for the four species. At low salinity extremes, when cell division was inhibited, an increase in the amount of chlorophyll-a per cell was detected.
