This webcast is the fourth in a series on why I/O is strategic for the data center. John Webster, senior partner at the Evaluator Group, will discuss why I/O is critically important to meet the bandwidth demands of big data deployments. As the data center infrastructure scales upward, so will the need for I/O to scale dynamically to meet these needs.
This document proposes a new robust hybrid watermarking scheme that embeds data in all frequencies of an image using both the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and singular value decomposition (SVD). It first applies DCT to the cover image and maps the coefficients into four quadrants representing different frequency bands. SVD is then applied to each quadrant. The singular values in each quadrant are modified by the singular values of the DCT-transformed visual watermark. Embedding data in all frequencies makes the scheme robust against attacks that target specific frequencies.
The document discusses design verification (DV) in the past, present, and future. In the past, DV techniques were basic like visual inspection and code coverage was in its infancy. Now, DV has evolved with more research, texts, and use of techniques like constrained random testing and static verification. The future of DV faces challenges of dealing with increasing capacity needs and being smarter about reaching verification goals. Formal verification and new algorithms are emerging to help address these challenges.
OpenSplice DDS v6 is a major leap forward with respect to the state of the art of DDS implementations; v6 is the first DDS implementation on the market to introduce (1) multiple deployment options, namely daemon-based and library-based, and (2) multiple programming paradigms, such as Pub/Sub, Distributed Object Caches and Client/Server, (3) universal connectivity to over 80 communication technologies via the new OpenSplice Gateway. All of this combined with an Open Source model, an active community and a strong technology ecosystem.
The document discusses using OpenSplice DDS for publish-subscribe communication like tweeting. It explains that with DDS, applications can publish and subscribe to data in a global data space to share information asynchronously. Publishers write tweets to topics, while subscribers can dynamically subscribe to topics and receive tweets from publishers they follow. OpenSplice DDS provides features like persistence, filtering, and integration with databases.
Commutative approach for securing digital mediaijctet
This document summarizes a paper on digital image watermarking techniques. It discusses how digital watermarking can be used to embed hidden information in multimedia data like images, audio, and video to identify ownership and protect against illegal copying. It describes different watermarking techniques including the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The paper analyzes the DCT and DWT techniques, evaluating them using peak signal-to-noise ratio at different threshold values. It finds that the DWT technique provides better image quality than DCT. The document also discusses applications of digital watermarking like ownership assertion, fingerprinting, copy prevention and control, fraud detection, and ID card security.

The document discusses a digital video watermarking technique using discrete cosine transform (DCT) and perceptual analysis. It proposes embedding a binary watermark in the DCT domain of video frames. A mathematical model is developed to insert a visible watermark into video frames in the DCT domain while considering characteristics of the human visual system to minimize perceptual quality impact. Experimental results show a watermarked video frame with the watermark logo embedded at different positions. The technique aims to provide copyright protection for digital video applications.

Paper Title:
A Linked Data Platform for Mining Software Repositories
Paper Abstract:
The mining of software repositories involves the extraction of both basic and value-added information from existing software repositories. The repositories will be mined to extract facts by different stakeholders (e.g. researchers, managers) and for various purposes. To avoid unnecessary pre-processing and analysis steps, sharing and integration of both basic and value-added facts are needed. In this research, we introduce SeCold, an open and collaborative platform for sharing software datasets. SeCold provides the first online software ecosystem Linked Data platform that supports data extraction and on-the-fly inter-dataset integration from major version control, issue tracking, and quality evaluation systems. In its first release, the dataset contains about two billion facts, such as source code statements, software licenses, and code clones from 18 000 software projects. In its second release the SeCold project will contain additional facts mined from issue trackers and versioning systems. Our approach is based on the same fundamental principle as Wikipedia: researchers and tool developers share analysis results obtained from their tools by publishing them as part of the SeCold portal and therefore make them an integrated part of the global knowledge domain. The SeCold project is an official member of the Linked Data dataset cloud and is currently the eighth largest online dataset available on the Web.

This document discusses how the cloud is well suited to address the challenges of big data. It notes that big data sets are getting larger and more complex, requiring new tools and approaches. The cloud optimizes precious IT resources by enabling elastic scaling, global accessibility, easy experimentation, and reducing costs. The cloud empowers users to balance costs and time. Several real-world examples are provided, such as banks using the cloud to perform Monte Carlo simulations and retailers using it for targeted recommendations and click stream analysis.
Logs are one of the most important pieces of analytical data in a cloud-based service infrastructure. At any point in time, service owners and operators need to understand the sta- tus of each infrastructure component for fault monitoring, to assess feature usage, and to monitor business processes. Application developers, as well as security personnel, need access to historic information for debugging and forensic in- vestigations.
This paper discusses a logging framework and guidelines that provide a proactive approach to logging to ensure that the data needed for forensic investigations has been gener- ated and collected. The standardized framework eliminates the need for logging stakeholders to reinvent their own stan- dards. These guidelines make sure that critical information associated with cloud infrastructure and software as a ser- vice (SaaS) use-cases are collected as part of a defense in depth strategy. In addition, they ensure that log consumers can effectively and easily analyze, process, and correlate the emitted log records. The theoretical foundations are em- phasized in the second part of the paper that covers the im- plementation of the framework in an example SaaS offering running on a public cloud service.
While the framework is targeted towards and requires the buy-in from application developers, the data collected is crit- ical to enable comprehensive forensic investigations. In ad- dition, it helps IT architects and technical evaluators of log- ging architectures build a business oriented logging frame- work.
This document discusses various architectural styles including data-centered, data-flow, call and return, layered, and client-server architectures. It explains how to map a data flow diagram (DFD) showing transform or transaction flows to a call and return architecture.

IT is migrating to a new model of computing and business alignment that is not just about the cloud, not just about bring your own device (BYOD), but a new way of thinking about how the building blocks of IT are developed, purchased and assembled to achieve business goals. We will explore the great migrations in the IT world, starting with the new IT strategy (hybrid everywhere), expanding users’ expectations (going beyond instantaneous), new technology models (software defined computing), defining new core building blocks, (everything has to be a platform) and how selling to IT will change (re-definable value vs. ROI positioning). During this presentation, we will look beyond the hype curve and buzzword compliance to identify the most influential IT migrations that will change the way we work, partner and profit for the next decade.
Using Network Recording and Search to Improve IT Service DeliveryEmulex Corporation
For organizations that depend critically on their network to provide services to both internal and external customers, understanding why quality of service issues occur is critical. An emerging tool in Network Performance Management and Diagnostics (NPMD) is network recording and search, which allows network operations (NetOps) staff to identify issues in service and application delivery.
Finding the right data (whether packets, netflows, or otherwise) to understand why your application is underperforming is often like finding a needle in a haystack. In most cases, you have to find exactly the right set of packets to understand why you have a service performance issue or a service failure. As organizations move from 1Gb Ethernet to 10Gb Ethernet to 40/100Gb Ethernet (1GbE, 10GbE, 40/100GbE), the “amount of hay” is increasing by orders of magnitude. However, most network recording and search devices on the market today cannot keep up with data rates beyond a few gigabits per second, and have to “sample” the network traffic. In this context, selecting the right network recording and search device means the difference between understanding and resolving your problem quickly, and spending days or weeks trying to randomly capture the right packets.
In this webinar, we’ll explore the different options that organizations have for recording and mining network traffic to identify and resolve ITSM issues. We'll explore what matters most when your applications fail, and share some best-practice insights gleaned from working with customers that run some of the largest and most critical data networks on the planet.
