We describe the MILS approach to design, construction, integration, and evaluation of secure systems. The crucial feature of the MILS approach is that it separates the problems of enforcing security policy from those of securely sharing resources. MILS design proceeds in two steps: first, we develop a logical security policy architecture in which the system is deconstructed into interacting com...

It will outline early responses to perceived inadequate parenting to provide the historical and policy contexts of contemporary debates on, and responses to, the care and protection of children and young people.

Using estimates of protection in the EU market against US exports, this paper illustrates the relative importance of natural and policy sources of protection and the measurement errors induced in the measurement of effective protection by omitting transactions costs. It also considers protection in the EU 'domestic' and export market, and the implications of the elimination of tariff barriers o...

Water is the sector most comprehensively covered in European Union’s environmental policy. An initial wave of directives accounting for public health protection and for harmonisation of environmental rules in the common market was followed by a call for a policy reform to address more properly realistic objectives, often conflicting in practical interpretation, such as environmental protection,...

A massive investment in the design multicore has been accomplished through technologies that impose significant barriers to assure the reliable operation of future chips. Extremely complex, parallel, multi-core processor fabricated in these technologies will become more vulnerable to several factors that produce transient (soft) errors or permanent (hard) errors. One of the critical issues to p...

In his celebrated work of comparative policy, Francis Castles argued that a radical wage-earning model of welfare had evolved in Australia and New Zealand over the course of the 20th century. The Castles' thesis is shown to have two parts: first, the 'fourth world of welfare' argument that rests upon protection of workers; and, second, an emphasis on the path-dependent nature of social policy. ...

Data privacy continues to be a very important topic, as our dependency on electronic communication maintains its current growth and private data is shared between multiple devices, users and locations. The growing amount and the ubiquitous availability of personal private data increases the likelihood of data misuse, where private data may be used against the privacy preferences of the person t...

The blooming of location-sharing services has led to serious privacy concerns, particularly location privacy concerns. In this paper, we first discuss the definition of location privacy and then review several location privacy protection mechanisms. After that, we classify location privacy protection mechanisms into four categories: legislation & regulatory, anonymity & obfuscation, protocol an...
