On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) is an analytical technology used to analyse multidimensional data and evaluate complex queries. OLAP is part of a broader technology suite, known as Business Intelligence (BI), which identifies trends in data sets and facilitates better informed choices. The size of data sets requiring processing is growing very fast; this is due to the nature of the data (h...

Software engineering methods and tools are available and well understood for developing single systems. Most companies however stay within the same domain from project to project or sell products in the same market segment for years. For these companies to be competitive it is essential to reuse artefacts from one product in another in order to improve time to market, achieve systematic reuse g...

Currently, intrusion analysis and recovery is a manual and tedious process. There have been several attempts at expediting the operation by automating some aspects of the process. Taser intrusion recovery is one such system. It logs system calls and is able to derive a dependency tree of kernel objects which aids in determining the list of files tainted by an intruder or software misconfigurati...

ion [39, 20] The main idea behind abstraction is to attempt to simplify the system (creating the abstracted model), which, if a temporal property holds on the abstracted system, then it also holds on the concrete system. Abstraction has been looked at from a MAS point of view by simplifying the local states, the local protocol and the local evolution function of each agent [22], the result bein...

My research interests center around the area of error-tolerant cryptography. In cryptography, our goal is to design protocols that withstand malicious behavior of an adversary. Traditionally, the focus was on a setting where honest users followed their protocol exactly, without fault. But what if an adversary can induce faults, for example a physical attack that changes the state of a user’s co...

The researcher will be required to work on vegetation monitoring using hyperspectral airborne or space borne data in both mountainous and urban areas. The research will require the definition and the implementation of a full processing chain of hyperspectral datasets that is able to start with radiometrically calibrated data and ending with maps of vegetated species and tree status in various e...
