The advances in virtual engineering brought about the creation of models of physical systems. This has been enhanced by the use of relevant standards and web technologies to develop interfaces for monitoring and controlling industrial systems at the shop floor or remotely over the internet. However, owing to the open nature of the internet as well as vulnerabilities associated with internet-based...
In spite of the large effort behind the development of the WBEM and CIM standards for the management of distributed systems, there has been very little work addressing security in those standards. In this paper we present a role-based access control (RBAC) policy language to render fine-grained access control policies for WBEM and CIM. The language is an extension of CIM-SPL, a preliminary DMTF policy...
The increased availability of mobile broadband connec- tions enables the expansion of software downloads to mobile devices. This leads to greater number of available services and a better utilisation of the computational power of mobile devices. The downside of this increased software availability is an increase in the possible attack vectors. One scenario is the misuse of resources, for example,...
The UNICORE grid system provides a seamless, secure and intuitive access to distributed grid resources. In recent years, UNICORE 5 is used as a well-tested grid middleware system in production grids (e.g. DEISA, D-Grid) and at many supercomputer centers world-wide. Beyond this production usage, UNICORE serves as a solid basis in many European and International research projects and business scenarios...
This is an introduction to the proceedings of the MWS 2007 workshop held at EDOC 2007. It first explains the motivation for and background of the workshop. Then, it contains a short description of the keynote, each long and short peer-reviewed paper, and the discussion session "impact of various execution environments on middleware for web services". After the closing statements, MWS 2007...
A complete nuclear power generating station security program consists of security personnel, barriers, security and contingency plans, procedures, and security equipment. The purpose of this standard is to establish criteria to guide the designer in the selection and application of equipment to detect, monitor, display, and record security conditions at nuclear power generating stations. These criteria...
