In this paper a performance comparison of Proton - a Linux-based compatibility layer - and native Windows is carried out for the purpose of video gaming. Proton, being a fork project of Wine, is a compatibility layer and just as Wine allows to run ...

With over 1.4 billion users of Windows 10, it is the most widely used operating system in the world. In Windows, applications from unknown publishers are popular due to mass availability and ease of access. Installing such applications can lead to ...

The internet has ingrained itself into every aspect of our lives, but there's one aspect of the digital world that some take for granted. Did you ever notice that many links, specifically hyperlinks, are blue? When a coworker casually asked me why links ...

The increased popularity of WhatsApp resulted in its extensive use as a tool in planning unlawful activities. In order to conduct an investigation in WhatsApp, the WhatsApp artefact should be located. This poses challenges to digital forensic ...

Code instrumentation is widely used in software analysis. The coverage-guided fuzzers collect path information by instrumenting additional code into the executable to guide the mutator. Existing instrumentation tools try to instrument ...

Time series (TS) are sequences of values ordered in time. Such TS have in common, that important insights from the data can be drawn by inspecting local substructures, and not the recordings as a whole. ECG recordings, for instance, are ...

Avalanche is a common disaster occurring in the hilly regions. It is unsafe for the people residing and the adventure enthusiast that are present in such regions. Avalanche forecasting helps people to take any precautionary measures against high risk. It ...

Now-a-day's malicious software is increasing in numbers and at present becomes more harmful for any digital equipment like mobile, tablet, and computers. Traditional techniques like static and dynamic analysis, signature-based detection methods ...

Microsoft’s Windows desktop operating system has been the most popular operating system in the domain of personal computers in recent years. The popularity of this system has also led to a large amount of malware on the Windows platform. With the ...

This work presents a data-driven adaptive windowing approach to accelerate video content extraction in DNN-based Complex Event Processing (CEP) systems. The CEP windows continuously monitor low-level content of incoming video frames and exploit ...

It has been widely reported that rooms with larger windows tend to feel more spacious, and previous studies have found a significant impact of the particular external view that a window affords on people’s preferences for its size and shape. ...

Our research uses ANSYS Maxwell for finite element analysis of electromagnetic devices. Our studies use heavily parameterized models to analyze numerous design scenarios and operating points, resulting in hundreds and thousands of simulation cases. ...

Research Computing demands are exploding beyond traditional disciplines due to the proliferation of data in all walks of life. At Bentley University ("Bentley"), a business university in the Boston area, this expansion has been most readily seen in our ...

Malware utilizes code injection techniques to either manipulate other processes (e.g. done by banking trojans) or hide its existence. With some exceptions, such as ROP gadgets, the injected code needs to be executable by the CPU (at ...

Computer systems have become a critical part of many businesses. Businesses rely on computer systems to perform many daily tasks. It is important that businesses have a valid strategy to recover their data in the event of fires, hurricanes, other ...

We wish to allocate outgoing bandwidth at a server among customer VMs. The allocation for each VM is proportional to the bandwidth purchased for that VM by the customer, while allowing idle bandwidth to redistributed. Classical fair queuing in routers ...

Memory analysis is increasingly used to collect digital evidence in incident response. With the fast growth in memory analysis, however, anti-forensic techniques appear to prevent it from performing the bootstrapping steps - operating system (OS) ...

URL blacklists are used by the majority of modern web browsers as a means to protect users from rogue web sites, i.e. those serving malware and/or hosting phishing scams. There is a plethora of URL blacklists/reputation services, out of which Google's ...

We present two techniques to obfuscate the interfaces between application binaries and Windows system DLLs (dynamic-link libraries). The first technique obfuscates the related symbol information in the binary to prevent static analyses from identifying ...

Over the past years malicious software has evolved to a persistent threat on all major computer platforms. Due tothe high number of new threats which are released every day security researchers have developed automatic systems toanalyze and classify ...
