Bhopal Gas Tragedy
The document summarizes the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy in India, one of the world's worst industrial disasters. On the night of December 3, 1984, poisonous methyl isocyanate (MIC) gas leaked from a Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal, killing thousands immediately and thousands more in the following years. An investigation found that cost-cutting measures led to critical safety systems being disabled or not properly maintained, allowing water to enter an MIC storage tank and cause a chemical reaction that released the deadly gas cloud. While laws and regulations were strengthened after the incident, the document argues that insufficient environmental and public safety protections continue due to unchecked industrial growth in India decades later.

The Bhopal disaster occurred in 1984 when toxic gas leaked from a Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal, India, killing thousands. A tank containing the toxic chemical methyl isocyanate leaked after water entered the tank, causing a chemical reaction that released 30 tons of gas. Strong winds spread the gas over a wide area, exposing hundreds of thousands and killing many. Investigations found safety equipment failures and lack of emergency planning contributed to the massive human and environmental impact of the incident.

Bhopal gas tragedy
The Bhopal gas tragedy was the worst industrial disaster in history. On December 3rd, 1984, a leak of methyl isocyanate gas and other chemicals from a Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal, India exposed over 500,000 people. It ultimately led to the deaths of around 40,000 people. There are ongoing health impacts even decades later, including increased rates of cancer, respiratory illness, and birth defects. The causes were debated but centered around water entering the methyl isocyanate storage tank, which led to an exothermic reaction and explosion that released the toxic gases. Compensation for victims was inadequate at only $500 per dead, and the legal battle for proper compensation continued for many years
Bhopal gas tragedy and Seveso Disaster
The Bhopal disaster, also referred to as the Bhopal gas tragedy, was a gas leak incident in India, considered the world's worst industrial disaster and The Seveso disaster was an industrial accident.

Enabling Reusable and Adaptive Modeling,Provisioning & Execution of BPEL Proc...
This document proposes an architecture for enabling reusable and adaptive modeling, provisioning, and execution of BPEL processes. The architecture supports collaborative, dynamic, and complex systems through reusable process fragments and abstract activities that can be flexibly modeled and executed. It consists of a modeling environment to create and manage process models using fragments, and a runtime environment containing an execution engine, integration layer, and persistence layer to instantiate and execute processes by injecting fragments at runtime. The architecture was evaluated through a use case of modeling and executing payment processes across different transportation systems.
Map reduce presentation
MapReduce is a programming model and implementation for processing large datasets in a distributed environment. It allows users to write map and reduce functions to process key-value pairs. The MapReduce library handles parallelization across clusters, automatic parallelization, fault-tolerance through task replication, and load balancing. It was designed at Google to simplify distributed computations on massive amounts of data and aggregates the results across clusters.

Conclusion
Map reduce advantages over parallel databases
MapReduce has several advantages over parallel databases for processing large datasets:
1) MapReduce can handle heterogeneous systems with different storage systems more easily than parallel databases which require data copying and analysis.
2) Complex functions are more straightforward to express in MapReduce's simple map and reduce model compared to SQL in parallel databases which can require complicated user defined functions.
3) MapReduce provides better fault tolerance than parallel databases by using techniques like batching, sorting, grouping and smart task scheduling during data transfers between mapping and reducing tasks.
Cloud computing risk assesment report
This document provides a risk assessment report on cloud computing. It begins with an abstract discussing how cloud computing has increased risks that consumers should be aware of. It then presents an introduction on cloud computing and the need for risk assessment. Several existing risk assessment approaches are studied. The discussion section analyzes previous risk assessment methods. It finds that while approaches assess risks for consumers, a complete qualitative or quantitative risk assessment method is still needed. The conclusion is that trust between consumers and providers requires a structured risk assessment approach that covers all domains.

Security algorithms for manet
The document proposes algorithms to securely and efficiently apply mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) using identity-based cryptography. It aims to address problems with the extreme vulnerability of military MANETs to foreign attacks by maintaining secrecy, confidentiality, and functionality even if nodes are captured. The key algorithms involve using large keys up to 65536 bits, designating node and main station roles, and refreshing keys through a public key generator that periodically generates new prime parameters, especially when nodes are compromised.
Bayesian network
Bayesian networks are graphical models that represent conditional independence relationships between variables. A Bayesian network consists of nodes representing variables, and directed edges representing conditional dependencies. It encodes a joint probability distribution over all the variables. Bayesian networks allow efficient inference and can represent incomplete data. They are useful for modeling causal relationships and combining domain knowledge with data.
AAA Implementation
The document discusses authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) and provides instructions for configuring AAA on Cisco routers. It begins with an introduction to the three A's of AAA - authentication, authorization, and accounting. It then covers identifying each component and implementing authentication using local services or external servers like TACACS+ and RADIUS. The document also discusses authenticating router access, configuring AAA on Cisco routers including enabling AAA globally and setting authentication lists, and troubleshooting AAA using debug commands.
5G green communication
This document discusses green communication and security challenges in 5G wireless networks. It outlines techniques for power allocation and measuring greenness, including equal power allocation and game theory. It also covers 5G network technologies like device-to-device communication, massive MIMO, small cells, and the internet of things. The document notes security concerns with these technologies and potential solutions. It concludes that 5G networks aim to increase energy efficiency 1000x through combining efficient technologies while maintaining network security.
A survey of ethical hacking process and security
This document outlines the process of ethical hacking and security. It discusses hacking, classes of hackers including ethical hackers, how to conduct ethical hacking, tips for ethical hacking, warnings, and security measures. The goal of ethical hacking is to strengthen network security by identifying vulnerabilities from the perspective of a hacker but in a legal, authorized way to help organizations improve their defenses. It provides guidance on learning skills like coding and using tools to conduct security testing with permission rather than for malicious purposes.
E-DHCP
This document proposes E-DHCP, an extension to the DHCP protocol that adds authentication. E-DHCP uses X.509 certificates and attribute certificates to authenticate DHCP clients, servers, and messages. It introduces an Attribute Authority server that creates and manages attribute certificates linking a client's identity certificate to its allocated IP address. The architecture involves E-DHCP clients and servers possessing identity certificates. Attribute certificates are then used to grant clients access to authorized services based on validating the linkage between certificates and allocated IP address. E-DHCP aims to address DHCP security issues like lack of authentication and prevent denial of service attacks.
Cybercriminals focus on Cryptocurrency
Cybercriminals focus on cryptocurrency like Bitcoin because there is significant monetary value involved, with the total market cap exceeding $11 billion. They are able to earn coins through malware that mines cryptocurrency on victims' devices without their knowledge, or through ransomware attacks where victims' data is encrypted until a ransom is paid in cryptocurrency. Common attacks include malware containing cryptocurrency mining tools, ransomware like the WannaCry attack of May 2017 that demanded Bitcoin payments, and fake initial coin offerings that trick investors.
