The underlying logic is that Denmark is among the most digitally integrated countries around the globe, and digitization has already increasingly been adopted over...
In his talk, Olmsted will investigate the problem of developing secure development of cloudbased enterprise applications. Consistency, availability, and durability are investigated for web service (WS) transactions. He proposes an approach that matches the availability of the popular lazy replica update propagation method while increasing durability and consistency. His replica update propagation...
Linux containers showed great superiority when compared to virtual machines and hypervisors in terms of networking, disk and memory management, start-up and compilation speed, and overall processing performance. In this research, we are questioning whether it is more secure to run services inside Linux containers than running them directly on a host base operating system or not. We used Docker v1...
In the development of a new software solution, users and developers spend the majority of their effort on modeling the functional requirements. The Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) are treated as a second class requirement, ignored until the end of the development cycle. They are often hidden, overshadowed and therefore, frequently neglected or forgotten. They are neglected because NFRs are often...
Cloud computing technologies play a substantial role in public organizations and private sector companies since it reduces the cost of using information technology services and allows users to access the service anytime and everywhere, whilst only paying for what they use. In developing countries, such as Saudi Arabia, the cloud computing is still not widely adopted, compared to countries in the west...
Lifelong learning is a very important activity especially for disabled learners. Learning technology allows disabled learners to acquire knowledge and skills more conveniently and effectively. Designing a learning environment should consider accessibility in order to provide an opportunity for those learners to access learning material and information. Much research has focused on improving the discovery...
In this study, we present an online tool for course task management. It serves both educators and students. While educators use it to upload online class tasks, define criteria and weights for assessment, and assess the submitted assignment online, students use it to receive the assignment, upload the answers, and observe the assessment. The uniqueness of this tool lies in the visual reports generated...
Universal telecommunications growth is largely attributed to rapid technological innovation and progressively more liberal policy environments. In the past decade, many developing countries have implemented technical and legislative reforms that have resulted in increased adoption of telecommunications technology. This has in turn led to productivity improvements and the successful adoption of mobile...
