Evolution The Great Lie
Evolutionsist proclaim their good idea is science but in reality severely lacks credible strength on numerous serious scientific failures of the theory. While the logic 'sounds' good and the science 'feels' good, the theory falls drastically short of credible acceptance. Originally, this good idea was formed over 140 years ago...

Analysis of GS Protections in Microsoft Windows Vista
The Microsoft Visual Studio compiler supports a Buffer Security Check GS option to protect stack variables from overflows that result in arbitrary code execution. The paper developed techniques to identify the presence of GS protection in binaries and used them to identify which programs are and which programs are not...

Analysis of the Linux Random Number Generator
Linux is the most popular open source project. The Linux random number generator is part of the kernel of all Linux distributions and is based on generating randomness from entropy of operating system events. The output of this generator is used for almost every security protocol, including TLS/SSL key generation,...

Achieving 100% Throughput in TCP/AQM Under Aggressive Packet Marking With Small Buffer
This paper investigates the performance of TCP/AQM systems with ECN marks under the aggressive scale for packet marking and a buffer of size smaller than O(?N). Under such a scale, the paper demonstrates that randomness both in packet arrivals and in packet marking must be taken into account and developed...

Impact of Interference on Multi-Hop Wireless Network Performance
This paper addresses the following question: given a specific placement of wireless nodes in physical space and a specific traffic workload, what is the maximum throughput that can be supported by the resulting network? Unlike previous work that has focused on computing asymptotic performance bounds under assumptions of homogeneity or...

A Study of TCP Fairness in High-Speed Networks
Under the TCP congestion control regime, heterogeneous flows, i.e., flows with different Round-Trip Times RTTs, that share the same bottleneck link will not attain equal portions of the available bandwidth. In fact, according to the TCP friendly formula, the throughput ratio of two flows is inversely proportional to the ratio...

Throughput and Transmission Capacity of Ad Hoc Networks With Channel State Information
This paper develops a general framework for deriving the spatial throughput and transmission capacity of spatially Poisson distributed ad hoc networks for random (e.g., fading) channels, and random transmission distances. In both of these scenarios the randomness of the channels and ranges invariably lowers both throughput and transmission capacity assuming...

Services/clients and authentication?
I am having a random account lockout issue with clients on our network. I have a funny feeling that something is not being authenticated and once the DC gets the third unsuccessful request, it locks the account, per our account lockout policy. These clients are usable by a...

Did we miss something by ditching analog?
I am certainly no hardware expert, but for whatever reason, I think we lost something in the world of computers when we went to a purely binary world of computing. Maybe I have just read Destination: Void by Frank Herbert one too many times. But something inside of me is...

Introduction to Iris Recognition for Personal Identification
Iris recognition illustrates work in computer vision, pattern recognition, and the man-machine interface. The purpose is real-time, high confidence recognition of a person's identity by mathematical analysis of the random patterns that are visible within the iris of an eye from some distance. Because the iris is a protected internal...
