Based on API call sequences, semantic-aware and machine learning (ML) based malware classifiers can be built for malware detection or classification. Previous works concentrate on crafting and extracting various features from malware binaries, disassembled binaries or API calls via static or dynamic analysis and resorting to ML to build classifiers. However, they tend to involve too much featur...

Although two-phase flow is frequently encountered in various location of the process plants, there is no a general accepted and verified two-phase flow model that may be used to size lines for such conditions. An obvious example is condensate water return lines. The API method that used in this study is based on the homogeneous equilibrium flow assumption, that is, equal velocity and equal temp...

A common way to get insight into a malicious program’s functionality is to look at which API functions it calls. To complicate the reverse engineering of their programs, malware authors deploy API obfuscation techniques, hiding them from analysts’ eyes and anti-malware scanners. This problem can be partially addressed by using dynamic analysis; that is, by executing a malware sample in a contro...

This paper deals with the implementation of a subset of the PLT webserver core API for Java Servlets. The core idea is to use thread suspension and resumption to model a limited form of continuations. Since this implementation is layered on top of the Java servlet API, it would work for any multi threaded webserver which supports the Java Servlets API.

Eine innovative Methode, um den Wasserbedarf bei der Produktion von Nahrungsmitteln zu modellieren und zu optimieren wird momentan am ATB im Rahmen der Nachwuchsgruppe „AgroHyd Welternährung und Wasserressourcen: eine agrarhydrologische Perspektive“ der Leibniz-Gemeinschaft (WGL) entwickelt. Zur Abbildung und Berechnung der Prozesse wird eine neue Software erstellt „ATB Modeling Database“, die ...

PKCS#11 defines an API for cryptographic devices that has been widely adoptedin industry. However, it has been shown to be vulnerable to a variety of attacks thatcould, for example, compromise the sensitive keys stored on the device. In this paper, weset out a formal model of the operation of the API, which differs from previous securityAPI models notably in that it accounts for...

This thesis presents the SmartGridRPC model, an extension of the GridRPC model, which aims to achieve higher performance. The traditional GridRPC model provides an API and model for mapping individual tasks of an application in a distributed Grid environment which is based on the client-server model or star network topology. The SmartGridRPC model provides an API and model for mapping a group o...

Pancreatic cancer (PC) evades immune destruction by favoring the development of regulatory T cells (Tregs) that inhibit effector T cells. The transcription factor Ikaros is critical for lymphocyte development, especially T cells. We have previously shown that downregulation of Ikaros occurs as a result of its protein degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system in our Panc02 tumor-bearing (TB...

A model to predict fatigue crack growth of API pipeline steels in high pressure gaseous hydrogen has been developed and is presented elsewhere. The model currently has several parameters that must be calibrated for each pipeline steel of interest. This work provides a sensitivity analysis of the model parameters in order to provide (a) insight to the underlying mathematical and mechanistic aspe...
