In a cloud environment the customer can't be sure where a particular job is physically executed and thus cannot rely on the security and confidentiality of the remote resource. A solution for this problem is operating on encrypted functions and encrypted data. This enables a customer to generate a program that can be executed by a third party, without revealing the underlying algorithm or the processed data. This helps securing applications and data in a distributed digital ecosystem. We present a method to compute a secret program on an untrusted resource using fully homomorphic encrypted circuits. We sketch an algebraic homomorphism as a cryptographic foundation and define a sample system architecture for which we provide a software implementation. Our concept solves the problems of encrypted storage access with encrypted addresses and encrypted branching: in contrast to other approaches, like static one-pass circuit simulations, our system supports dynamic parameters and non-linear programs, that render branch-decisions at runtime and cannot be represented in a circuit with hard-wired in-circuit parameters and data. Our implementation comprises the runtime environment for an encrypted program and an assembler to generate the encrypted machine code.","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131098119","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}

Paradoxically, as the information grows, the ability to harness it intelligently is diminishing. It is further compounded by our difficulty in actually discovering the relevant piece of information needed to drive the decision in the context within the systemic constraints. The paper presentation will explore the challenges in the digital information management space with specific focus on analyzing, securing and harnessing the information, what needs to be done to foster the ecosystem, the challenges/gaps that exist, and the progress that is crying to be made in the coming decade. The paper will expound on the spectrum of complexities starting from the fundamental information extraction from data, and then discuss the approaches for synthesizing, standardizing and harmonizing noisy data to derive a holistic view. The paper will then elaborate ways of discovering information, and touch upon industry challenges in the space. The conclusion will highlight the emerging trends of gaining insights and intelligence, and being able to model and predict competitive behavior.","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123482774","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}

To do this, it focuses on evaluation criteria from an ecological perspective. Given that urban areas are similar with ecosystems, the authors examine the characteristics of ecosystems in terms of survival, i.e., evolution, adaption, ecological network, maximum power principle, dispersal and ecological hierarchy. From these characteristics of ecosystem survival, the authors consider how environmental infrastructure should be evaluated for the purpose of contributing to urban sustainability. Thus, evaluation criteria are derived from the characteristics of ecosystems as they relate to survival. These include inherent innovation, interconnectivity, maximizing efficiency, compactness, decentralization, conservation of the natural ecosystem, convenience with historical and cultural coupling and stepwise greenization. Finally, these criteria are applied to evaluate a Korean case. As a result, the evaluation criteria are regarded to be useful to incorporate urban sustainability into the evaluation process for environmental infrastructure.","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"12 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122465570","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}

However these approaches are based on node or machine level Assessment. As a node may contain CPU(s), storage devices, connections for communication and software resource, a node failure may actually be a failure of any of these components. This paper proposes a probabilistic risk model at the component level; the probabilistic risk model encompasses series and parallel model(s). Our approach towards risk assessment is aimed at a granularity level of individual components as compared to previous efforts at node level. The benefits of this probabilistic approach is the provision of a detailed risk assessment to the Grid resource provider leading to risk aware scheduling and an efficient usage of resources. Grid failure data was analyzed and experimentation was conducted based the proposed risk model. The results of the experiments provide detailed risk information at component level for the nodes required in the SLA (Service Level Agreement).","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127673068","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}

An agent-based approach is used for modeling structure and behavior of complex systems that consist of (semi-)autonomous systems, where goals, resources, capabilities are described locally while a need for superordinated ”global” regulation exists. The notion of organized localities is used to describe spatially or logically constrained spheres of influence of regulation bodies. Agents inhabit — and can move across — localities; regulation rules are modeled via computational norms and enforced by electronic institutions. A key objective of our work is to explore and advance applicability of AAOL to constructing mechatronic systems with (at least soft) real-time constraints. We describe requirements for modeling systems of systems, and outline the key pillars of AAOL: a conceptual architecture and a metamodel providing the basic constructs for describing AAOL-type systems. A case study of a decentrally organized airport transportation infrastructure illustrates the concepts and the feasibility of AAOL-based systems of systems design.","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125965484","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}

It has been shown that visualisation and network analysis can be used to provide insights into the system and the results can be utilised to facilitate management activities. Taking this approach in digital ecosystem research a step further, we propose to instrument the visualisations of a system's structure to operationalise this information for securing access to resources in research ecosystems. To this end, we present the concept of a visual approach to manage access control for distributed research ecosystems, based on a multi-purpose collaborative graph structure. Individuals are enabled to visually interact with the graph and contribute to access control decisions by jointly modelling the environment's structures and policies. Additionally, other administrative tasks can be instrumented to benefit from the explicit information contained in the structure. Using our approach, the burden of project management can be lightened by facilitating an integrated view of an inherently intricate environment.","PeriodicalId":297420,"journal":{"name":"5th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies (IEEE DEST 2011)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124162278","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}
