Security and Dependability for Ambient Intelligence is the primary publication for the SERENITY approach which provides security and dependability (S&D) solutions for dynamic, highly distributed and heterogeneous systems. The term Ambient Intelligence identifies an ambitious vision for pushing technological developments, that will enable heterogeneous networked systems and devices with computing capabilities (cars, house applications, mobile phones etc.). The objective of SERENITY is to enhance the security and dependability of ambient intelligence systems by providing a...

As software systems become ubiquitous, the issues of dependability become more and more crucial. Given that solutions to these issues must be considered from the very beginning of the design process, it is reasonable that dependability is addressed at the architectural level. This book was born of an effort to bring together the research communities of software architectures and dependability.

This state-of-the-art survey contains expanded and peer-reviewed papers based on the carefully selected contributions to two workshops: the Workshop on Architecting Dependable Systems (WADS...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems, FMOODS 2005, held in Athens, Greece on June 15-17, 2005. The FMOODS conference was held as a joint event in federation with the 5th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems (DAIS 2005).

The 19 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 91 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on models and calculi, UML,...

If you're involved in planning IT infrastructure as a network or system architect, system administrator, or developer, this book will help you adapt your skills to work with these highly scalable, highly redundant infrastructure services.

While analysts hotly debate the advantages and risks of cloud computing, IT staff and programmers are left to determine whether and how to put their applications into these virtualized services. Cloud Application Architectures provides answers -- and critical guidance -- on issues of cost, availability, performance, scaling, privacy,...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the 8th International Conference on Information Security and Cryptology, ICISC 2005. The 32 revised full papers presented together with two invited talks are organized in topical sections on key management and distributed cryptography, authentication and biometrics, provable security and primitives, system and network security, block ciphers and stream ciphers, efficient implementations, digital rights management, and public key cryptography.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the ACM/IFIP/USENIX 7th International Middleware Conference 2006, held in Melbourne, Australia, in November/December 2006. The 21 revised full papers are organized in topical sections on performance, composition, management, publish/subscribe technology, databases, mobile and ubiquitous computing, security, and data mining techniques.
