Funding Criteria for Research , Development , and Exploration Projects

The sequential nature of activities like research, development, or exploration requires optimal funding criteria to take account of the fact that subsequent funding decisions will be made throughout the future. Thus, there is a continual possibility of reviewing a project's status, based on the latest information. After setting up a model to capture this feature, optimal funding criteria are in...

Knowledge, Not Funding is the Most Important Research Resource

In the last issue of the Asia Pacific Journal of Medical Toxicology, Dr. Reza Afshari raised the question of what are the best scientific areas of focus of toxicology for “low income countries and how such research might be achieved (1).

2005–present HiStar: a secure operating system [2]. Led the HiStar project on designing and developing a new operating system that allows applications to minimize the amount of trusted code. HiStar allows applications to specify precise data security policies by specifying how different information can flow through the system. As a result, small amounts of trusted code can reason about the secu...
