Kerberos: An Authentication Service for Open Network Systems

by Jennifer G. Steiner, Clifford Neuman, Jeffrey I. Schiller - IN USENIX CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS , 1988
"... In an open network computing environment, a workstation cannot be trusted to identify its users correctly to network services. Kerberos provides an alternative approach whereby a trusted third-party authentication service is used to verify users’ identities. This paper gives an overview of the Kerb ..."

Ariadne: a secure on-demand routing protocol for ad hoc networks," in

by Yih-Chun Hu , Adrian Perrig , David B Johnson - Proc. 8th ACM International Conf. Mobile Computing Networking , , 2002
"... Abstract An ad hoc network is a group of wireless mobile computers (or nodes), in which individual nodes cooperate by forwarding packets for each other to allow nodes to communicate beyond direct wireless transmission range. Prior research in ad hoc networking has generally studied the routing prob ..."

problem in a non-adversarial setting, assuming a trusted environment. In this paper, we present attacks against routing in ad hoc networks, and we present the design and performance evaluation of a new secure on-demand ad hoc network routing protocol, called Ariadne. Ariadne prevents attackers

DataGuides: Enabling Query Formulation and Optimization in Semistructured Databases

by Roy Goldman, Jennifer Widom , 1997
"... In semistructured databases there is no schema fixed in advance. To provide the benefits of a schema in such environments, we introduce DataGuides: concise and accurate structural summaries of semistructured databases. DataGuides serve as dynamic schemas, generated from the database; they are ..."

SEAD: Secure Efficient Distance Vector Routing for Mobile Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

by Yih-Chun Hu, David B. Johnson, Adrian Perrig , 2003
"... An ad hoc network is a collection of wireless computers (nodes), communicating among themselves over possibly multihop paths, without the help of any infrastructure such as base stations or access points. Although many previous ad hoc network routing protocols have been based in part on distance vec ..."

vector approaches, they have generally assumed a trusted environment. In this paper, we design and evaluate the Secure Efficient Ad hoc Distance vector routing protocol (SEAD), a secure ad hoc network routing protocol based on the design of the Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector routing protocol

DART: Directed automated random testing

by Patrice Godefroid, Nils Klarlund, Koushik Sen - In Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI , 2005
"... We present a new tool, named DART, for automatically testing software that combines three main techniques: (1) automated extraction of the interface of a program with its external environment using static source-code parsing; (2) automatic generation of a test driver for this interface that performs ..."
Abstract - Cited by 843 (42 self) - Add to MetaCart
that performs random testing to simulate the most general environment the program can operate in; and (3) dynamic analysis of how the program behaves under random testing and automatic generation of new test inputs to direct systematically the execution along alternative program paths. Together, these three

KLEE: Unassisted and Automatic Generation of High-Coverage Tests for Complex Systems Programs

by Cristian Cadar, Daniel Dunbar, Dawson Engler
"... We present a new symbolic execution tool, KLEE, capable of automatically generating tests that achieve high coverage on a diverse set of complex and environmentally-intensive programs. We used KLEE to thoroughly check all 89 stand-alone programs in the GNU COREUTILS utility suite, which form the cor ..."

Managing Update Conflicts in Bayou, a Weakly Connected Replicated Storage System

by Douglas Terry, Marvin Theimer, Karin Petersen, Alan Demers, Mike Spreitzer, Carl Hauser - In Proceedings of the Fifteenth ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles , 1995
"... Bayou is a replicated, weakly consistent storage system designed for a mobile computing environment that includes portable machines with less than ideal network connectivity. To maximize availability, users can read and write any accessible replica. Bayou's design has focused on supporting apph ..."

Maté: A Tiny Virtual Machine for Sensor Networks

by Philip Levis, David Culler , 2002
"... Composed of tens of thousands of tiny devices with very limited resources ("motes"), sensor networks are subject to novel systems problems and constraints. The large number of motes in a sensor network means that there will often be some failing nodes; networks must be easy to repopu-late. ..."
Abstract - Cited by 510 (21 self) - Add to MetaCart
capsules enable the deploy-ment of ad-hoc routing and data aggregation algorithms. Maté's concise, high-level program representation simplifies programming and allows large networks to be frequently re-programmed in an energy-efficient manner; in addition, its safe execution environment suggests a use

Pig Latin: A Not-So-Foreign Language for Data Processing

by Christopher Olston, Benjamin Reed, Utkarsh Srivastava, Ravi Kumar, Andrew Tomkins
"... There is a growing need for ad-hoc analysis of extremely large data sets, especially at internet companies where innovation critically depends on being able to analyze terabytes of data collected every day. Parallel database products, e.g., Teradata, offer a solution, but are usually prohibitively e ..."

for the development and execution of their data analysis tasks, compared to using Hadoop directly. We also report on a novel debugging environment that comes integrated with Pig, that can lead to even higher productivity gains. Pig is an open-source, Apache-incubator project, and available for general use. 1.

gprof: a Call Graph Execution Profiler

by Susan L. Graham, Peter B. Kessler, Marshall K. McKusick , 1982
"... Large complex programs are composed of many small routines that implement abstractions for the routines that call them. To be useful, an execution profiler must attribute execution time in a way that is significant for the logical structure of a program as well as for its textual decomposition. This ..."
