With the increasing concern for security in the network, many approaches are laid out that try to protect the network from unauthorised access. New methods have been adopted in order to find the potential discrepancies that may damage the network. Most commonly used approach is the vulnerability assessment. By vulnerability, we mean, the potential flaws in the system that make it prone to the a...

The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) is dedicated to finding and fighting the causes of insecure software. The OWASP AppSec conferences bring together application security experts, researchers and practitioners from all over the world. Industry and academia can meet to discuss open problems and new solutions in application security. This report bundles the papers accepted for prese...

This work aimed to study the intrinsic tolerance of Greek lentil accessions to imazamoxherbicide by combining bioassays, pot and field experiments. Initially, 31 genotypes wereevaluated in Petri dish bioassays for their tolerance to six concentrations of imazamox. Theaverage root length of 10 lentil seedlings/dish at seven days after herbicide application was usedfor non-linear regression analy...

Increasing attention is being paid to use of organic fertilizers such as manure and vermicompost which can increased yield and protect the environment. Replacing chemical fertilizers with manures has the benefit of low production cost and imparts beneficial effects on soil. Then an experiment was conducted during 2013 to measure effects of organic fertilizers on essential oil of dill (Anethum g...

Gladiolus is an important marketable cut flower, especially valued for use in floral arrangements. We assessed the effects of two different methods of application (foliar spray and drench) and various concentrations of gibberellic acid (GA3), salicylic acid (SA), mival (MI) and krizatcin (KR) on vegetative and reproductive features of Gladiolus hybridus. The experiment was planned in a factoria...

Surface layer as the outer protective coverage of bacteria and archaea are two-dimensional crystalline and symmetrical arrays of proteins that recently attract a lot of attention for biologist scientists. The surface layers of bacteria are usually 5 to 10 nm in diameter and represent highly porous protein lattices with uniform size and morphology with the pore sizes of 2 to 8 nm. The crucial an...

The major aim of this study is to extend Zhang and Isa’s (2011) study by investigating the moderating effect of the stages of ABC application on the firms’ performance. This study selects 106 Chinese manufacturing companies and employs multiple regression technique and structural equation modelling. It examines whether successful application of the ABC directly affects the firm’s performance, a...
