Forensic discovery auditing of digital evidence containers

Current digital forensics methods capture, preserve, and analyze digital evidence in generalpurpose electroniccontainers (typically, plainfiles) with no dedicated support tohelp establish that the evidence has been properly handled. Auditing of a digital investigation, from identification and seizure of evidence through duplication and investigation is, essentially, ad hoc, recorded in separate...

Advanced Digital Video Processing

The concept of an image being created by superposition of object layers has been used by photograph editors for many many years. Adobe Photoshop has been using this idea since 1989. In 1994, Wang and Adelson presented an article in which they gave serious credence to the idea that each frame in an image sequence can be constructed by layers of object planes.

Customized television: standards compliant advanced digital television

This correspondence describes a European Union supported collaborative project called CustomTV based on the premise that future TV sets will provide all sorts of multimedia information and interactivity, as well as manage all such services according to each user’s or group of user’s preferences/profiles. We have demonstrated the potential of recent standards (MPEG-4 and MPEG-7) to implement suc...

Digital Genome Mapping – Advanced Binary Malware Analysis

Windows binary malware has come a long way. Today’s average worm is often tens or hundreds of kilobytes of code exhibiting a level of complexity that surpasses even some operating systems. This degree of complexity, coupled with the overwhelming flow of new malware, calls for improvements to tools and techniques used in analysis. Our paper elaborates on how to use graph theory to aid the analys...
