چکیده
Dr Ian Wakeman is a senior lecturer in the Department of Informatics at the University of Sussex and formerly a research fellow at UCL. His current research interests are focused on support for user policies within pervasive environments, and how to make trust relationships explicit in the technological foundations of pervasive computing systems. His previous work has been in the area of programmable networks and congestion control of video over packet networks. He has been the Principal Investigator on three successful EPSRC projects and the BT funded Alpine programme. The EPSRC projects included: investigating support for adaptive applications; understanding mental models of networked applications, in collaboration with UCL; and an investigation on the design and implementation of programming languages for active networks. He is currently a Co-Investigator on two ongoing EPSRC projects, looking at natural language policy management, and on support for third party computation within the network. He has over forty publications in refereed journals and conferences.

A context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملA semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملTrading room telephones and the identification of counterparts
Although computers and electronic networks have become pervasive in contemporary financial markets, the telephone keeps playing a crucial role as a communication device in the trading rooms of investment banks and brokerage houses. The author examines this technology, its uses and the way in which it frames trade interactions in a number of empirical situations, with particular attention to the...
متن کاملOn the Impact of Closet Indexing in Active Fund Management
We propose a simple model to quantify the performance impact of closet-indexing in equity fund management, with a focus on mutual funds. The model requires only two inputs: the Sharpe ratio of the market index and the Rsquare from a regression of a fund’s excess returns on systematic factor returns. Due to pervasive closet-indexing, R-squares are uniformly close to one, regardless of the asset ...
متن کاملApplications Using Hybrid Intelligent Decision Support Systems for Selection of Alternatives under Uncertainty and Risk
Alternative selection of a portfolio has been a challenging research area in finance and investment decision making. Recent advances in single Decision Support Systems (DSS), soft computing and machine learning models are to solve the problems in selection of alternatives under uncertain market and risk environments. These models have not considered concurrently uncertain values including quant...
