A method for Conflict Detection and Alerting (CD&A) was developed as part the Small Aircraft Transportation System, Higher Volume Operations (SATS HVO) program at NASA Langley Research Center. The method addresses the specific problems and conditions of the concept of operations and uses a combination of state vector and procedure-based intent for conflict detection. The SATS HVO concept of ope...

Understanding the behavior and benefits of contention managers is important for designing transactional memory implementations. Contention manager design is closely tied to other design decisions in a transaction memory implementation, and therefore experiments to compare the behaviors of contention managers are difficult. This paper presents a discrete event simulator that allows researchers t...

The separation of concerns at implementation level with AspectOriented Programming (AOP) tools raises the conflicts among aspects. The conflicts detection and resolution are critical operations. First the detection of conflicts is a manual task in most of the AOP tools, second the resolution of conflicts is enclosed to order-schemes. The AOP tools structures and mechanisms do not always support...

Automated separation assurance systems are being developed to reduce controller workload and increase airspace capacity of the National Airspace System (NAS). To evaluate these systems, a measure for conflict risk is required. The objective of this analysis is to estimate the rate at which flights enter a course of potential conflict or collision under different traffic loads. Conflict rates ar...

The conflict adaptation effect, a reduced interference effect upon the detection of a conflict signal (e.g., following an incongruent trial), has been interpreted as evidence for active regulation of top-down cognitive control. We hypothesized that the extent of conflict adaptation should be related to individuals' working memory capacity (WMC), which has been repeatedly demonstrated to reflect...

This paper studies performance metrics that are of use in the evaluation of conflict detection and resolution in air traffic management. The metrics studied are conflict probability and incrossing probability, both of which are closely related to the safety criteria used by the civil aviation community. The main contribution of this paper is to develop mathematical characterisations for these m...

Conflict and conflict dynamics are phenomena intertwined with social change. The ability to detect conflict it is as important as the ability to resolve conflicts effectively because conflicts can bring attention to the problematic structures in a society. In multi-agent systems (MAS), a great deal of work has been devoted to conflict resolution, but little has been discussed regarding detectio...

Conflict escalation in multi-party conversations refers to an increase in the intensity of conflict during conversations. Here we study annotation and detection of conflict escalation in broadcast political debates towards a machine-mediated conflict management system. In this regard, we label conflict escalation using crowd-sourced annotations and predict it with automatically extracted conver...

Response inhibition and conflict control on affective information can be regarded as two important emotion regulation and cognitive control processes. The emotional Go/Nogo flanker paradigm was adopted and participant's event-related potentials (ERPs) were analyzed to investigate how response inhibition and conflict control interplayed. The behavioral findings revealed that participants showed ...

This work presents a WEB-IDS that combine both anomaly and misuse detection approach. This mixed solution is really interesting because merges the two complementary methods used to recognize attacks; we solved the usual conflicts presented by this choice and obtained an higher results accuracy. Our tool starts with the misuse-based module and its results are passed to the anomaly detection modu...
