A secure and privacy-preserving incentive framework for vehicular cloud
(2018-04-01)
Vehicular Cloud Computing (VCC) plays a critical role in data generation where a large number of vehicles collect various kinds of sensing resources with large-volume features. While the information that should be collected ...
A study of password recall, perceived memorability, and strength using BCIs
(2018-04-01)
Passwords are considered the most common method of authentication and studies are frequently conducted to understand users' password habits. In this thesis, we run two empirical studies that provide information to further ...
Secure and privacy-preserving fog-assisted vehicular crowdsensing
(2018-08-01)
Vehicular crowdsensing (VCS) is an emerging paradigm where vehicles use onboard sensors to collect and share data with the aim of measuring phenomena of common interest. VCS has allowed for automated control as well as ...
Visual Analytics for Topic Model Optimization based on User-Steerable Speculative Execution
(IEEE, 2018-09-18)
To effectively assess the potential consequences of human interventions in model-driven analytics systems, we establish the concept of speculative execution as a visual analytics paradigm for creating user-steerable preview ...
Visualization and the Digital Humanities: Moving Toward Stronger Collaborations
(IEEE, 2018-12-01)
For the past two years, researchers from the visualization community and the digital humanities have come together at the IEEE VIS conference to discuss how both disciplines can work together to push research goals in their ...
Virtual drilling haptics perception from auditory cues employing low-end haptic devices
(2018-12-01)
Simulation-based training is being widely adopted in medical education because it allows exposing trainees to safe and controlled simulated scenarios otherwise impossible to reproduce in real life. Current advances in ...
Galo: guided automated learning for query workload re-optimization
(2018-12-01)
Traditional query optimization techniques often fail when logical subtleties in business queries and schemas circumvent them. Query performance problem determination is typically performed manually in consultation with ...
Towards trusted and efficient temporal relational databases
(2018-12-01)
This research is to develop a blockchain based database based on a relational database management system (RDBMS). The database guarantees authenticity of the stored records using immutable and verifiable signatures. The ...
Managing developer interruption
(2018-12-01)
The high frequency of interruptions during cognitively-intense activities can be annoying and detrimental to deadline-driven work, such as software development. When developers are interrupted they not only lose productivity ...
Scalable immersive audio for virtual environments
(2018-05-01)
This thesis discusses the history of game sound and how it developed to become increasingly more immersive and realistic by accounting for the spatial aspects of sound. It then compares several 3D sound technologies before ...
