Enhanced inquiry method for malicious object identification

This paper proposes a new technique for malicious object detec-tion and identification. The technique is based on a concept of vi-rus inquiry. The inquiry is an activity that is performed by the malicious object during its initiation. The malicious object uses this activity to ensure its uniqueness in memory. The inquiry can be regarded as a common behavior of malicious object such as viruses. The proposed system is designed using the concept of Ob-ject Oriented Programming (OOP) that treats the operating system, user program, and virus as objects. It is constructed of three ele-mentary objects that perform their activities depending on two da-tabases.

Credibility of digital content in a healthcare collaborative community.

With the increased number of new diseases that are appearing in the world, such as swine flu [influenza A(H1N1)], and the increased awareness of the importance of sharing medical ideas, information, experience, knowledge, and research results, there is an urgent demand for a collaboration framework. Such a framework depends on deploying, discovering, and using digital content. This inevitably leads to the generation of large amounts of digital content from different healthcare users, which requires massive resources to process, store, and retrieve them. Moreover, the digital content currently suffers from a lack of credibility, which is vital in healthcare applications. Thus, this chapter discusses briefly how grid computing can boost Web 2.0 communities. In addition, the chapter discusses a proposed scenario for offering a way of measuring the credibility of the published digital content.

SOAW2 for Managing the Web 2.0 Framework

Web 2.0 predicates an improved and seamless user interaction and management of Web environment and resources, guaranteeing required services and a flexible generation of user applications. This occurs via an agile composition of services from available application (foundation) tools. Hence, Web 2.0 developers merely create the core of these applications, while the boundaries dynamically change and expand in accordance with user interaction (a use model). In other words, the resources, tools, and services act as plug-in entities that users can add or remove from the applications operational framework according to their needs. In this article we propose a service-oriented architecture, or SOA, model for managing the operation of Web 2.0 platform actors, improving the services provided to consumers

Defining an Ontology for E-Health Autonomic Software Services

This paper presents the motivations behind the development of a novel knowledge plane to extend e-health service-oriented application services. The paper starts by a brief description of service-oriented architecture applied to remote health monitoring and execution system, which is implemented as a massively-distributed sensor and actuator grid overlay. This will be followed by an illustrative example of pregnancy monitoring is used to detail the proposed architecture and operation. Finally, the paper concludes with general remarks and a statement of further work

Managing Web 2.0 framework based on Grid Computing overlay

Web 2.0 is expected to be the next technology in the interaction between the enterprise applications and users. Such interaction will be utilized in producing self-governance applications that are able to re-adjacent and re-configure the operation framework based on userspsila feedback. To achieve this, huge numbers of underneath resources (infrastructures and services) are required. Therefore, this work proposes the merge of Web 2.0 technology and Grid Computing overlay. Such merge between technologies is expected to offer mutual benefits for both communities. Through this work, a model for managing the interaction between the two technologies is developed based on the adapting of SOA model, this model is known as SOAW2G. This model manages the interaction between the users at the top level and resources at the bottom layer. The paper is concluded with the future vision of the new model.

Autonomic Grid Overlay for Managing Financial Applications

This paper presents an intelligent online monitoring system for business enterprise applications based on grid computing overlay to improve QoS, performance, fidelity, and reliability of the system. This paper starts by describing a grid-based architectural model for financial application services, which is underpinned by a proposed sensor and actuator framework to provide context, governance and self awareness capabilities to ensure self management behaviour of the system. In particular, load monitoring of users account services is used in this paper illustrating and detailing the proposed architecture. The paper concludes with an evaluation and general concluding remarks
