云计算数据中心网络安全风险及主动防御技术研究

为进一步提高云计算数据中心的网络安全性能,构建了一种软件定义网络（Software Defined Network,SDN）防火墙与入侵检测系统（Intrusion Detection System,IDS）联动的主动防御系统。该系统弥补了SDN防火墙与IDS的缺陷,SDN防火墙根据IDS识别恶意流量的特征,后期再有此类流量进入,会对恶意流量进行有效识别和阻断。结果表明,通过构建SDN防火墙与IDS联动的多维度主动防御架构,可以提高云计算数据中心抵御网络安全风险的能力。     

VSA和SDS:两种SDN网络安全架构的研究

软件定义网络SDN(Software Defined Networking)的软件编程特性和开放性带来很多新的安全挑战,也给网络安全带来了挑战和机遇.本文提出了两种演进的SDN网络安全架构:虚拟化安全设备(Virtualized Security Appliance)和软件定义安全(Software Defined Security),给出了两种架构的建设要点,并以常规网络入侵、拒绝服务攻击和高级持续威胁等三类典型攻击场景分析了相应的工作原理,以防火墙为例演示了两种架构下的实现,测试表明两种结构在云计算中心环境中性能上是可行的,并且SDN数据和控制分离的特性使防火墙可用更少的代码实现.

一种基于OpenFlow的SDN访问控制策略实时冲突检测与解决方法

软件定义网络SDN(Software-Defined Networking)是由美国斯坦福大学Clean Slate研究组提出的一种新型网络创新架构,可通过软件编程的形式定义和控制网络,其控制平面和转发平面分离及开放性可编程的特点,为新型互联网体系结构研究提供了新的实验途径,也极大地推动了下一代互联网的发展.OpenFlow是SDN的主要协议,定义了SDN控制器与交换机之间的通信标准.目前,很多基于OpenFlow的SDN设备已经在实际中得到了部署.但是,基于OpenFlow的SDN却面临很多安全挑战.其中一个重要的挑战是如何建立一个安全可靠的SDN防火墙应用.由于OpenFlow协议的无状态性,现有的SDN防火墙可以被通过改写交换机中的流表项轻松绕过.针对这一安全威胁,作者提出了基于Flowpath的实时动态策略冲突检测与解决方法.通过获取实时的SDN网络状态,能够准确地检测防火墙策略的直接和间接违反,并且一旦发现冲突,可以基于Flowpath进行自动化和细粒度的冲突解决.最后,作者在开源控制器Floodlight上实现了一个安全增强的防火墙应用FlowVerifier,并基于Mininet对FlowVerifier的性能进行了评估.结果表明FlowVerifier能够检测和自动化地解决SDN网络中由于流表改写而引入的策略冲突及其带来的安全威胁.

X86、NP和ASIC谁占优?

在百兆防火墙时代,国内防火墙厂商普遍采用的是通用CPU配合软件的技术方案。虽然很多厂家也把它称之为硬件防火墙,但实际上都是基于X86架构的服务器或工控机。这类防火墙一般运行在经过裁减的操作系统上(通常是Linux或BSD),所有的数据包解析和审查工作都由软件来完成。虽然这种     

Only connect: teaching, technology and telesis

Abstract This paper describes an approach to the design of interactive multimedia materials being developed in a European Community project. The developmental process is seen as a dialogue between technologists and teachers. This dialogue is often problematic because of the differences in training, experience and culture between them. Conditions needed for fruitful dialogue are described and the generic model for learning design used in the project is explained.     

European Community policy and the market

Abstract This paper starts with some reflections on the policy considerations and priorities which are shaping European Commission (EC) research programmes. Then it attempts to position the current projects which seek to capitalise on information and communications technologies for learning in relation to these priorities and the apparent realities of the marketplace. It concludes that while there are grounds to be optimistic about the contribution EC programmes can make to the efficiency and standard of education and training, they are still too technology driven.

融合集成方法已经广泛应用在模式识别领域,然而一些基分类器实时性能稳定性较差,导致多分类器融合性能差,针对上述问题本文提出了一种新的基于多分类器的子融合集成分类器系统。该方法考虑在度量层融合层次之上通过对各类基多分类器进行动态选择,票数最多的类别作为融合系统中对特征向量识别的类别,构成一种新的自适应子融合集成分类器方法。实验表明,该方法比传统的分类器以及分类融合方法识别准确率明显更高,具有更好的鲁棒性。     

Avoiding semantic and temporal gaps in developing software intensive systems

Development of software intensive systems (systems) in practice involves a series of self-contained phases for the lifecycle of a system. Semantic and temporal gaps, which occur among phases and among developer disciplines within and across phases, hinder the ongoing development of a system because of the interdependencies among phases and among disciplines. Such gaps are magnified among systems that are developed at different times by different development teams, which may limit reuse of artifacts of systems development and interoperability among the systems. This article discusses such gaps and a systems development process for avoiding them.     

Designing economic np control charts: A programmed simulation approach

This paper presents control charts models and the necessary simulation software for the location of economic values of the control parameters. The simulation program is written in FORTRAN, requires only 10K of main storage, and can run on most mini and micro computers. Two models are presented - one describes the process when it is operating at full capacity and the other when the process is operating under capacity. The models allow the product quality to deteriorate to a further level before an existing out-of-control state is detected, and they can also be used in situations where no prior knowledge exists of the out-of-control causes and the resulting proportion defectives.     

The development of robot art

Going through a few examples of robot artists who are recognized worldwide, we try to analyze the deepest meaning of what is called “robot art” and the related art field definition. We also try to highlight its well-marked borders, such as kinetic sculptures, kinetic art, cyber art, and cyberpunk. A brief excursion into the importance of the context, the message, and its semiotics is also provided, case by case, together with a few hints on the history of this discipline in the light of an artistic perspective. Therefore, the aim of this article is to try to summarize the main characteristics that might classify robot art as a unique and innovative discipline, and to track down some of the principles by which a robotic artifact can or cannot be considered an art piece in terms of social, cultural, and strictly artistic interest. This work was presented in part at the 13th International Symposium on Artificial Life and Robotics, Oita, Japan, January 31–February 2, 2008

Explanation and prediction: an architecture for default and abductive reasoning

Although there are many arguments that logic is an appropriate tool for artificial intelligence, there has been a perceived problem with the monotonicity of classical logic. This paper elaborates on the idea that reasoning should be viewed as theory formation where logic tells us the consequences of our assumptions. The two activities of predicting what is expected to be true and explaining observations are considered in a simple theory formation framework. Properties of each activity are discussed, along with a number of proposals as to what should be predicted or accepted as reasonable explanations. An architecture is proposed to combine explanation and prediction into one coherent framework. Algorithms used to implement the system as well as examples from a running implementation are given.     

Three Process Perspectives: Organizations, Teams, and People

This paper provides the author's personal views and perspectives on software process improvement. Starting with his first work on technology assessment in IBM over 20 years ago, Watts Humphrey describes the process improvement work he has been directly involved in. This includes the development of the early process assessment methods, the original design of the CMM, and the introduction of the Personal Software Process (PSP)^SM and Team Software Process (TSP){^SM}. In addition to describing the original motivation for this work, the author also reviews many of the problems he and his associates encountered and why they solved them the way they did. He also comments on the outstanding issues and likely directions for future work. Finally, this work has built on the experiences and contributions of many people. Mr. Humphrey only describes work that he was personally involved in and he names many of the key contributors. However, so many people have been involved in this work that a full list of the important participants would be impractical.     

基于复小波噪声方差显著修正的SAR图像去噪

提出了一种基于复小波域统计建模与噪声方差估计显著性修正相结合的合成孔径雷达(Synthetic Aperture Radar,SAR)图像斑点噪声滤波方法。该方法首先通过对数变换将乘性噪声模型转化为加性噪声模型,然后对变换后的图像进行双树复小波变换(Dualtree Complex Wavelet Transform,DCWT),并对复数小波系数的统计分布进行建模。在此先验分布的基础上,通过运用贝叶斯估计方法从含噪系数中恢复原始系数,达到滤除噪声的目的。实验结果表明该方法在去除噪声的同时保留了图像的细节信息,取得了很好的降噪效果。
