2003 - Spring

In this group we will be covering papers from a subset of the following topics. A list of papers is given at the end of the write-up: 1. Case studies of intrusion detection systems i) Theoretical work, e.g., by Wenke Lee ii) Practical work, e.g., the Prelude IDS 2. Security in ad-hoc or sensor networks i) Denial of service ii) Network layer issues iii) Cryptography 3. Case studies of fault tolerant computer systems E.g., Tandem's Integrity machine, TNET: a reliable system area network 4. Error detection techniques i) Control flow error detection ii) Watchdog processors iii) Hardware redundancy 5. Recovery techniques i) Rollback recovery using checkpoints ii) Rollback recovery in message passing multiprocessors iii) Forward recovery 6. Software reliability i) How often does software fail? ii) Why does software fail? (And from that maybe, what can be done about it?) 7. Estimation of reliability i) Reliability modeling, e.g., using combinatorial models ii) Availability modeling, e.g., using Markov models
