  2. 1. Practical Experimentation as a Tool for Vulnerability Analysis and Security Evaluation

    Author : Tomas Olovsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computers; dependability; vulnerabilities; tiger teams; taxonomy; operational security; analysis; security; terminology;

    Abstract : The first part of this thesis describes the results of applying dependability methods to the security area. A uniform taxonomy for security, expected to contain all characteristic attributes, is presented. This taxonomy will hopefully increase the understanding of security issues. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dependability of IT Systems in Emergency Situations – Theory and Practice

    Author : Kim Weyns; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dependability; IT Systems; Emergency Management; Markov Models; Sensitivity Analysis; Swedish Municipalities;

    Abstract : As our dependence on IT systems increases, evaluating the dependability of critical IT systems becomes more important. One of the main challenges in software reliability engineering is the sensitivity of software systems to a changing usage. READ MORE

  5. 3. IT Dependability Management in Governmental Organisations

    Author : Kim Weyns; Institutionen för datavetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dependability; IT management; Risk management; Information safety; Emergency management; Maturity models; Software reliability modelling; Service level agreements;

    Abstract : As our dependence on IT systems increases, evaluating the dependability of critical IT systems becomes more important. This is especially true for systems that are critical in a crisis situation and whose dependability is an important factor in an organisation's capability to resolve a crisis. READ MORE

  6. 4. On Impact and Tolerance of Data Errors with Varied Duration in Microprocessors

    Author : Örjan Askerdal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fault injection; dependability; error propagation analysis; fault tolerance; error effect analysis;

    Abstract : The evolution of high-performance and low-cost microprocessors has led to their almost pervasive usage in embedded systems such as automotive electronics, smart gadgets, communication devices, etc. These mass-market products, when deployed in safety-critical systems, require safe services albeit at low recurring costs.
