CERIAS Tech Report 2004-02 DEFINING AND MODELING DIGITAL EVIDENCE USING DATA FLOWS
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we define, model, and show the uses of evidence in an investigation, specifically a digital investigation. Digital evidence has been used in the courts to help prove cases, but its characteristics and role in an investigation have not been formally defined or challenged. This paper defines digital evidence by observing the role of evidence in a physical investigation, modeling the role, and applying the model to a digital investigation. The model shows the data flow between objects and how the data can be interpreted to produce information and evidence of the incident. The model can also be used to identify the source of an incident and to find additional evidence at a crime scene. The class and individual characteristics of digital evidence are given and the data flow for the 4.4 BSD kernel is used as a case study.

Modeling participant flows as a basis for decision support in human service programs
In the human services, participants flow into, through and out of programs. The complete set of flows, if described accurately and measured precisely, is valuable for understanding a program both qualitatively and quantitatively. The complexity of these flows, however, is an obstacle to program assessment and to the development of decision support tools. Drawing on the traditions of the informa...
متن کاملInvestigation of BPEL Modeling
The Business Process Execution Language for Web Service (BPEL4WS) is a XML based standard for defining how to integrate Web Services to implement business processes. A BPEL4WS process is defined in terms of its interactions with partner. A partner may provide services to the process and also may require services from the process, or participate in two-way interaction with the process. This repo...
متن کاملModeling and querying of distributed XML data in presence of 3rd party links
XML (short for eXtensible Markup Language) is a meta-language for the representation of digital data. XML has had an enormous impact on modern computer science and IT industry since its advent in 1997, for several reasons: XML is simple and easily accessible. Using Unicode as encoding, XML can be viewed and authored/edited with common text editors, and due to the context-free and well-formed st...
متن کاملAn Investigation on Selecting Cartographic Scales on Sediment Delivery Ratio in Jamash Watershed
Multicipality inputs of different analysis of digital data in modern methods of map processing causes the changes in results of erosion and sediment models. In this context, selecting a cartographic scale as the major input of spatial data has become a challenge issue in erosion and sediment modeling. Therefore, in this study, using topographic maps and selecting to spatial scales (1:25000 and ...
متن کاملMultiterminal Network Flows with Inverse Linear Constraints in Engineering Networks*
The necessity of using and studying models that are similar to reality leads to the development of new network flows, generalizing the already known network structures. The multiterminal network flow is a natural development of the classical flow with one source and one sink and fixed upper limits of the flow function on each arc [1, 2]. There exists a number of engineering and economic problem...
