Extant research has focused on the detection of fake reviews on online review platforms, motivated by the well-documented impact of customer reviews on the users’ purchase decisions. The problem is typically approached from the perspective of protecting the credibility of review platforms, as well as the reputation and revenue of the reviewed firms. However, there is little examination of the v...

There is a strong drive towards hyperresolution earth system models in order to resolve finer scales of motion in the atmosphere. The problem of obtaining more realistic representation of terrestrial fluxes of heat and water, however, is not just a problem of moving to hyperresolution grid scales. It is much more a question of a lack of knowledge about parameterisation of processes at whatever ...

Although denial of service attack has been becoming a fast-growing concern in security research, previous work focused on a type of classical denial of service caused by resource exhaustion. In this paper, a different type of network denial of service attack is discussed. Since traditional models and countermeasures are not applicable, we discuss solutions that can defend this non-classical ser...

To assess whether a robust typology of sex offenders could be established based on the patterns of denial displayed, a previously developed semistructured interview method was used to assess denial in a mixed group of convicted rapists and child molesters. Cluster analysis was used to establish homogeneous groups of sex offenders based on the pattern of denial in each case, with a three-cluster...

Owning to the huge damage and difficulty of prevention of denial of service attacks in security protocols, people pay serious attentions on analysis, verification and prevention of denial of service attacks. Formal method in computational model is a powerful tool used to analyze and prove securities in security protocols, network and distributed system. But until now in computational model ther...

The US Global Positioning System (GPS) is currently the primary source of Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) information in maritime applications, whether stand-alone or augmented with additional systems. This situation will continue in the future with GPS, possibly together with other Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) e.g. Galileo, being the core PNT technology for e-Navigation – t...
