Inference of information from databases on any system is one security concern which involves breaches by authorized users of the system. One class of intrusion tools known as trackers has been extensively studied and several deterrent methods created. Most such deterrents, however, are not feasible solutions to the inference breach on small or personal computer systems because of the large amount of resource required to implement them. Natural or artificial dynamism of the contents of the database does provide a deterrent to trackers. This paper reports a study on the quantification of the deterrent value of making changes to records in a database against compromise with the general tracker. Information on the deterrent value of increasing the frequency of change, the number of attributes in the records, and the number of records in the database can provide a useful management tool to managers of small computers and networked PCs.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127929644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, as software takes a more prominent role in systems engineering, ensuring the quality of software is becoming a critical issue. This paper explores the application of one neural network paradigm—the competitive learning network—to the problem of evaluating software complexity. The network was developed by ARINC Research Corporation for its SofTest software analysis system, developed on a Sun workstation. In this paper, we discuss the network used in SofTest and the approach taken to train the network. We conclude with a discussion of the implications of the approach and areas for further research.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"424 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133176082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system throughput is also a key performance measure. One of the difficulties, which the system designer faces, is to control these performance factors. A heavily requested computation, or a subtask that requires long service time, may reduce the system performance. This paper presents two different solutions for the above problem using multiple servers to support the execution of such a subtask. The first approach uses a pipeline subtask decomposition while the second approach uses a set of parallel servers. A queuing model, that takes into consideration the communication delay, is used for the analysis. In addition, the proposed approaches consider the operating environment, both system and user constraints, and the required resource cost.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121750865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report here the development of an efficient and practical software package (QST) for the analysis of a particular class of queueing systems, (those described by two subsystems which interact only through the exchange of customers) which can run on an IBM PS/2 Model 70 or equivalent, or with some restrictions, on 80286-based PC's. The package produces data (or graphs) of various performance (including residual behavior) characteristics for these generalized queueing loops. It also generates such transient properties as “Busy Period”, “Rush Hour”, and “Mean Time to Failure”. The equations, which are transparent to the user, come from the “Linear Algebraic Approach to Queueing Theory”. For now, the package has been developed within the MATLAB environment. We provide some examples of input and output.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134166471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper outlines a method for generating certain types of palindromes, called lexical palindromes, which consist of legitimate English words. The method reported provides substantial pruning of a Prolog search tree by calculating the number of success nodes along certain search paths instead of visiting them, indexing words to improve database performance, and continuous analysis of current states to eliminate non-productive search paths. These efficiency measures allow lexical palindromes to be generated using a microcomputer.\u0000Our ultimate objective is to be able to estimate the ratio of sentential palindromes for any given length to the set of syntactically well-formed English sentences of that length with respect to a given lexicon and grammatical model. We shall take up the problem of determining the ratio of sentential palindromes to well-formed sentences in a sequel to this paper.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"53 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120911771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the Bryan model, two different entries in a thesaurus that have the same spelling are homographs (semantically unrelated) if and only if they cannot be the endpoints of a sequence of entries called a type-10 chain. The Bryan definition of a type-10 homograph has not been tested thoroughly until recently because of the combinatorial complexity associated with a direct application of the definition to a large instantiation such as Roget's. However, in 1989, the authors were able to decompose Roget's in into its type-10 components, and as a result, generate all 23,858 type-10 homographs at the semi-colon category level.\u0000The principal result is that Bryan's definition of homographs by type-10 semantic disjunction does not appear to work uniformly over a broad range of entries in Roget's when the selected semantic category is the semi-colon group. Although there are many cases where type-10 homographs agree with conventional classifications, in general type-10 discrimination at the semi-colon level “over discriminates” in that it generates many more homographs than are found in standard English language dictionaries.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117206722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both implementations are compared and evaluated for such points as flexibility, speed, power and space requirements, and cost. The purpose of this paper is to introduce students of digital logic design to the problems of selecting a suitable implementation based on software and hardware requirements, and system constraints. This is to teach students how to recognize which problem should be implemented in hardware and which problem should be implemented in software, or when and how to split between hardware and software. By implementing both methods themselves, students get a hands-on experience in several hardware design techniques such as asynchronous state machine (ASM), EPROM programming, address decoding, and input/output port interfacing.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128894079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the mapping is not one-to-one, it does show that the two systems are essentially equivalent. There are, of course, many examples of artificial neural systems that are not expert systems. We can use the reverse mapping of an artificial neural expert system to a rule based expert system to determine the knowledge base of the rule based expert system, i.e., to determine the exact nature of the rules. This yields an automated procedure for determining the knowledge base of an expert system that shows much promise. We have implemented this expert system tool on several larger microcomputers, including an Intel Sugarcube. The Sugarcube implementation is a very natural one.","PeriodicalId":147067,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Small Systems","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122028323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
