Abstract—Today, botnets have become a serious threat to enterprise networks. By creation of network of bots, they launch several attacks, distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) on networks is a sample of such attacks. Such attacks with the occupation of system resources, have proven to be an effective method of denying network services. Botnets that launch HTTP packet flood attacks agains...

Panic attacks are discrete episodes of intense fear or discomfort accompanied by symptoms such as palpitations, shortness of breath, sweating, trembling, derealization and a fear of losing control or dying. Although panic attacks are required for a diagnosis of panic disorder, they also occur in association with a host of other disorders listed in the 5h version of the diagnostic and statistica...

The mammalian and flea fauna of La Rioja Province is one of the least known from northwestern Argentina. In this study, the distribution and nomenclature of 13 species of fleas of bats and rodents from La Rioja Province are updated. Four species of fleas are recorded for the first time in La Rioja Province including a new record for northwestern Argentina, and two new flea-host associations. An...

GOST block cipher designed in the 1970s and published in 1989 as the Soviet and Russian standard GOST 28147-89. In order to enhance the security of GOST block cipher after proposing various attacks on it, designers published a modified version of GOST, namely GOST2, in 2015 which has a new key schedule and explicit choice for S-boxes. In this paper, by using three exactly identical portions of ...

Résumé. Dans cet article, nous proposons une approche d’évolution de schéma dans les entrepôts de données qui permet aux utilisateurs d’intégrer leurs propres connaissances du domaine afin d’enrichir les possibilités d’analyse de l’entrepôt. Nous représentons cette connaissance sous la forme de règles de type «si-alors». Ces règles sont utilisées pour créer de nouveaux axes d’analyse en généran...

RÉSUMÉ. Nous abordons dans cet article le problème de la prise en compte de relations (par exemple de nature syntaxique ou sémantique) dans un modèle de langues en recherche d’information. En particulier, nous proposons, sur la base du modèle de langue, un cadre complet pour la prise en compte de relations, étiquetées ou non. Afin d’illustrer ce cadre, nous avons conduit une série d’expériences...

BACKGROUND The amygdala has been known to play a pivotal role in mediating fear-related responses including panic attacks. Given the functionally distinct role of the amygdalar subregions, morphometric measurements of the amygdala may point to the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying panic disorder. The current study aimed to determine the global and local morphometric alterations of the am...

Grasses are recognized as a critical regeneration barrier in tropical pastures, yet the effects of rodents and rodent–grass interactions not well understood. As selective foragers, could shape tree communities, moderating biodiversity regenerating landscapes. We utilized fully crossed two-way factorial design to examine effect that grasses, rodents, their interaction had on seedling establishme...

linguatula serrata is one of the important zoonotic parasites. carnivores serve as definitive host. the larvae existed in mesenteric lymph nodes (mlns), liver, lungs, etc of intermediate herbivores. the definitive host becomes infected by ingesting viscera containing the infective nymphal stage. humans may be infected with linguatula either by ingestion of nymphs resulting in a condition called...
