This report considers the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to the problem of misuse detection and misuse localisation within telecommunications environments. A broad survey of techniques is provided, that covers inter alia rule based systems, model-based systems, case based reasoning, pattern matching, clustering and feature extraction, artificial neural networks, genetic ...

New laws are increasingly constraining informations systems.To prevent misuses of the law, requirements engineers are faced with the problem of incorporating legal prescriptions into requirements analysis. Nòmos is an extension of i*, which allows to build models of legal prescriptions alongside intentional elements, and derive this way requirements that at the same time fulfill stakeholder nee...

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in various food supplies have important health impacts, but are not as devastating as malnutrition and, perhaps, obesity. POPs should be controlled and the Stockholm Convention is having an accelerating effect on the global decline of POP manufacture and use. Reservoirs from previous misuses are much larger than current manufacture and efforts should be dire...

This paper briefly reviews the most frequently used and misused intraclass correlation analysis of variance (ANOVA) reliability measures. Recommendations are made for the one-way ANOVA intraclass correlation and against the use of several coefficients: Winer's so-called "anchor point method," KuderRichardson Formula Number 20, and the Spearman-Brown prediction formula. The computation of the in...

The relationship between neuroscience and education can prove most fruitful when it fosters a bidirectional exchange of ideas and approaches. The connection between neuroscience and education can be guided by defining roles, approaches, implications, and applications. The purpose of this discussion is to clarify the perspectives of neuroscience and education towards maximizing the communication...

Modern software systems are often built from existing library components. A common problem is how to fix bugs when source code is not available. Xept is an instrumentation language and tool that can be used to add to object code the ability to detect, mask, recover and propagate exceptions from library functions. This helps to alleviate or avoid a large class of errors resulting from function m...
