Although complexity and vulnerability assessment of mountain landscapes is increasingly taken into consideration, less attention is paid to ecophronesis-based solutions so as to reduce the fragile ecosystem vulnerability. The main propose of this study is to provide an insight of mountain complex landscape vulnerability and propose ecophronesis-based solutions in strategic planning framework fo...

Any organisation connected to the Internet that is serious about security cannot be without an intrusion detection system (IDS) these days. Is one IDS sufficient to cover all possible vulnerabilities in a network? In a sea of security products available today, which IDS tool(s) will be sufficient for your organisation’s needs? The only way to find out is to compare various IDS tools with each o...

Proactive Vulnerability Assessments with Nessus The goal of this paper is to illustrate the benefits of deploying Nessus as a low-cost vulnerability scanner as a supplement to an existing security model. I'll discuss vulnerability scanning in general, what Nessus is all about, how to begin scanning your network, and finally why a vulnerability scanner is an essential component of an effective s...

introduction: iran is constantly exposed to natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and drought. in the meantime, drought is the major natural disaster which leads to numerous losses in agriculture and water resources, and this phenomenon is slow and creeping.available evidence suggests that drought management is based on crisis management. as the present management in our country is base...

If we think of the graph as modeling a network, the vulnerability measure the resistance of the network to disruption of operation after the failure of certain stations or communication links. Many graph theoretical parameters have been used to describe the vulnerability of communication networks, including connectivity, integrity, toughness, binding number and tenacity.In this paper we discuss...

Fisheries support livelihood of over half a billion of people globally. Many of these people live in coastal regions of developing countries; and have limited capacity to adapt and build resilience in the face of climate change.  This research assesses the biophysical and socioeconomic characteristics of fishers in four coastal communities, Komenda, Elmina, Cape coast and Morree, in Ghana.
