Minimizing Attack Graph Data Structures

November 14, 2015
Author(s)
Peter Mell, Richard Harang
An attack graph is a data structure representing how an attacker can chain together multiple attacks to expand their influence within a network (often in an attempt to reach some set of goal states). Restricting attack graph size is vital for the execution

Expanding Continuous Authentication with Mobile Devices

November 13, 2015
Author(s)
Kim B. Schaffer
Continuous Authentication has been around but has been met with several limitations. Recent development of mobile platforms are providing relief for many of these limitations as they take advantage of multiple sensors and sufficient processing power for

Gold Nanoparticle Quantitation by Whole Cell Tomography

November 13, 2015
Author(s)
Aric W. Sanders, Kavita M. Jeerage, Cindi Schwartz, Alexandra Curtin, Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay
Many proposed biomedical applications for engineered gold nanoparticles require their incorporation by mammalian cells in specific numbers and locations. Here, the number of gold nanoparticles inside of individual mammalian stem cells was characterized

Thermodynamic Properties of R-227ea, R-365mfc, R-115, and R-13I1

November 13, 2015
Author(s)
Eric W. Lemmon, Roland Span
Equations of state are presented for the refrigerants 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane (R-227ea) and 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluorobutane (R-365mfc). Typical uncertainties of properties calculated with the new equations are 0.2 % in density, 1 % to 2 % in heat

Effects of Wireless Packet Loss in Industrial Process Control Systems

November 12, 2015
Author(s)
Yongkang Liu, Rick Candell, Nader Moayeri
Timely and reliable sensing and actuation control are essential in networked control. This depends on not only the precision/quality of the sensors and actuators used but also on how well the communications links between the field instruments and the

Maps of Non-hurricane Non-tornadic Wind Speeds With Specified Mean Recurrence Intervals for the Contiguous United States Using a Two-Dimensional Poisson Process Extreme Value Model and Local Regression

November 12, 2015
Author(s)
Adam L. Pintar, Emil Simiu, Franklin T. Lombardo, Marc L. Levitan
This report describes a procedure for creating maps of non-hurricane, non-tornadic wind speeds for a set of recurrence intervals of interest between \num{10} and \num{100000} years over the contiguous United States. The procedure is carried out in two

Optimizing Hybrid Metrology: Rigorous Implementation of Bayesian and Combined Regression.

November 12, 2015
Author(s)
Mark Alexander Henn, Richard M. Silver, John S. Villarrubia, Nien F. Zhang, Hui Zhou, Bryan M. Barnes, Andras Vladar, Bin Ming
Hybrid metrology, e.g. the combination of several measurement techniques to determine critical dimensions, is an important approach to meet the needs of semiconductor industry. A proper use of hybrid metrology may not only yield more reliable estimates for

The Practice of Pulse Processing

November 12, 2015
Author(s)
Joseph W. Fowler, Bradley K. Alpert, William B. Doriese, Young Il Joe, Galen C. O'Neil, Joel N. Ullom, Daniel S. Swetz
The analysis of data from x-ray microcalorimeters requires great care; their excellent intrinsic energy resolution cannot usually be achieved in practice without a statistically near-optimal pulse analysis and corrections for important systematic errors
