It is about time–Do exFAT implementations handle timestamps correctly?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Digital forensic investigations require that file metadata are interpreted correctly. In this paper we focus on the timestamps of exFAT system. How these written may depend implementation We have performed experiments using Windows, MacOS and Linux to examine whether respective system drivers for use in same manner, they take directory entry UTCOffset fields into account. also studied tools: Autopsy, X-Ways Forensics, EnCase Examiner, FTK Imager interpret consistently. The results show there substantial inconsistencies both implementations how tools handle inconsistencies. For unwary examiner, is a clear risk interpreting incorrectly by margin. conclude timestamp interpretation during criminal should not be based assumption specifications followed flawlessly driver developers or necessarily displayed correctly digital tools.

Forecasting: it is not about statistics, it is about dynamics.
In 1963, the mathematician and meteorologist Edward Lorenz published a paper (Lorenz 1963 J. Atmos. Sci. 20, 130-141) that changed the way scientists think about the prediction of geophysical systems, by introducing the ideas of chaos, attractors, sensitivity to initial conditions and the limitations to forecasting nonlinear systems. Three years earlier, the mathematician and engineer Rudolf Ka...

Alongside Clem Tisdell’s prodigious scholarship, colleagues appreciate a quality he displays which characterises both economists and natural scientists. He sees the oddities in things – their incongruities, underside, gaps.

متن کاملIt is not about the bike, it is about the pedaling: forced exercise and Parkinson's disease.
Forced exercise has resulted in neuroprotective effects and improved motor function in animal studies. These promising results have not yet been translated fully to humans with Parkinson's disease (PD), as traditional exercise interventions have not yielded global improvements in function. A novel forced exercise intervention is described that has resulted in improved motor function and central...
