Authors: Hean Yong Kang , Katuk Norliza , Haryani Zakaria Nur 
Published: July 2024

Authentication is a security component that maintains user access to applications. It has been the primary reason for users to create usernames and passwords before they can use applications. In creating usernames and passwords; users are required to fill in their personal information in which it is a time-consuming process. Additionally, it also increases the number of usernames and passwords that users need to remember which leads to password fatigue. Social login is a way to address this problem. With the benefits that social login could offer, this study aims to study the usability of social login for mobile learning. Further, the userâ€™s preference towards authentication mechanisms used for mobile learning applications was identified. An experimental study was conducted using a mobile learning application named LANGKAWI ISLANDS. Forty participants participated in this study on a voluntary basis and used the traditional and social login on LANGKAWI ISLANDS. The time taken by the participants to sign up the application using both mechanisms was recorded. The usability of the authentication mechanisms was evaluated using a self-report questionnaire. Then, the participants stated their preference for the authentication mechanisms. The results suggest that the social login is more usable than the traditional authentication mechanism. Further, the usersâ€™ signup process for LANGKAWI ISLANDS is much faster using social login and has been the primary usersâ€™ preference for mobile learning authentication mechanism.Â Â

Published: July 2024

Large-scaled cloud systems have been there in various domains by extendinglarge number of resources. Efficient allocation of shared assets in cloud is a vital but provocative issue. It is known that existing load balancing policies like Random,size-based polices, Join Shortest Queue are implemented in cloud as they are simple and efficient. The performance of the above mentioned policies decrease when workloads are temporally correlated. We propose the new load balancing method, Dynamic Chained Failover Algorithm in this paper where particular time period at which the server is getting overloaded is taken and particular task which causes overloading in particular interval is placed in all servers as a replica instead of data reallocation. Overall system performance is increased. Exploiting capable server to improve the system performance is thus demanded.Â Â

Authors: Md Rejab Mawarny , Noble James 
Published: July 2024

Changes in software development methods should lead to changes in an organizationâ€™s performance appraisal system. Several organizations, however, have adopted Agile software development methods without reforming their performance appraisal. Performance appraisal should be aligned to Agile values, principles, and practices, which advocate interactions, collaborations, teamwork, and knowledge transfer. Through a Grounded Theory study involving 48 Agile practitioners and external specialists, we discovered two major changes to performance appraisal for Agile teams: integrating individual and team performance assessment criteria, and shifting from quantitative to qualitative measurement of performance. Our findings indicate that reforming performance appraisal tends to influence successful expertise coordination in Agile teams. This study can be a baseline in generating an Agile-compliant performance appraisal to assess Agile team members in a fair and consistent manner. This indirectly increases motivation amongst team members and tends to produce capable workforce to perform at a higher level.Â Â

Page Enabled FSM Model For Multi Rate- High Throughput Regex Pattern Matching System
Authors: Nagaraju S. , Sudhakara Reddy P. 
Published: July 2024

In recent years demands for high throughput NIDS systems are emerged with compatible Wildcard support for the detection of irregular patterns like ClamAV. In this work we presented a single-compound FSM based state transition controller for regular ASCII based patterns and counter enabled score generation model for regex patterns which contains both repeated characters and donâ€™t cares void segments. In many existing digital NIDS systems are token-stream based approaches were used with dedicated memory units to accommodate byte oriented matching with moderate network payload speed. The NIDS efficiency is largely depends on both intrusion byte size and the size of database. To mitigate this problem memory based digital NIDS system requires coordinated pattern matching. In this work, FSM based one hot state encoding model with bit wise state transition controller is proposed which gives both parallel task and high throughput payload validity check. Here during the payload monitoring if input segments are aggregated as tokens, the state transition controller is used to enable the counter for token model and state transitions are carried out based on the regex patterns received and the concurrent matches that are halted in parallel manner. To avoid clock synchronization over concurrent matching process and variable rate matching process page wise integration of each sub groups are carried out which is driven by ADPLL unit. The performance metrics of FSM state controlled payload monitoring is proved in terms of speed and memory efficiency over state-of-art-the-art methods. Here in our proposed NIDS system consumes lesser memory resources and it is verified through comparison with state-of-the-art methods.Â Â

Despite having dedicated applications for different operating system, web application is the most common interface accessed by all the devices. Web application security is an indispensible factor in todayâ€™s cyber world. Because of the robust resource available on Internet regarding web development, anyone today can develop a website even with zero coding skills. More than developing a perfect website, maintaining the security has become the prime goal today. Huge data breach in companies resulted due to a small security loophole in their website. Even a minor Cross Site Scripting (XSS) bug may lead to the whole server compromise depending upon the attacker who knows how to convert a simple bug into a disaster. Remote Code Execution (RCE) is one of the critical vulnerability that arises due to the unsafe handling of inputs by the server application. This vulnerability arises under various conditions that include but not limited to unsafe deserialization, XML External Entity attack, Server Side Request Forgery and Server Side Template Injection.Â Â

Supermarket chains seem to be have a humongous amount of data. Aprioi algorithm is considered to be the classic way to create associations in the data and create power combination of products that would occupy a particular shelf and area. This algorithm employs the greedy method to create meaningful associations between data. This mechanism, however , has a very high time complexity. Its time complexity is linearly proportional to the product of number of transactionsÂ Â and the average number of products bought per transaction, thus creating computations that can only be solved in polynomial time when compared to the logarithmic-time complexity algorithm which we employ in this paper.Â Â

Published: July 2024

Adiabatic logic design is an efficient superconductor logic which performs adiabatic switching operation. The Adiabatic logic is the most essential part of the variable latency design.Â The design of conventional CMOS logic circuit depends on the charging of output capacitive nodes. Here a glitch tolerant adiabatic design logic is proposed. For stumpy power applications, although there are many â€˜techniquesâ€™ mutually at way level and system stage. To reduce the power consumption, the charging of capacitive nodes should process the operating part in slow manner.Â From this it can observe that it takes less amount of energy to charge the capacitive nodes. Several Adiabatic designs have been proposed in literature. Most of them achieve significant power savings in comparison to conventional circuits. From the proposed glitch tolerant logic design it can observe that by performing adiabatic switching operations there is a reduction in dynamic energy dissipation. To minimize this switching power we use a factoring technique in adiabatic logic. The main drawback is that it uses junction diodes for controlling the charging and discharging of output nodal capacitance. Junction diodes are difficult to fabricate in a CMOS process. From this it can observe that the compared to existed system proposed system gives effective results.Â Â
