HiPIP: High -Performance Invocation Protection
We choose three algorithms for our HiPIP implementation. We perform an empirical analysis on a Linux cluster connected with 100 Mbps Ethernet. For a null RMI, the plaintext latency is 150 microseconds. Our HiPIP implementation adds 6 microseconds with a latency of 156 microseconds, whereas the DES …

Occupational invocation : managing experts through occupational norms
… through a process I label occupational invocation. In this process, managers first publicly highlight experts' breaches of shared occupational norms. Managers then reintegrate experts by providing them with an opportunity to display a correction of their actions such that they align with …

Reasoning Tradeoffs in Implicit Invocation and Aspect Oriented Languages
… used. Beyond Object Orientation, Implicit Invocation and Aspect Oriented languages pose very hard reasoning challenges. Important tradeoffs must be considered while reasoning about a program: modular vs. non-modular reasoning, case-by-case analysis vs. abstraction, explicitness vs. …

Description and analysis of central registry, a pattern for modular implicit invocation
… Registry is a generalization of several implicit-invocation design patterns. Its goal is to provide the kind of decoupling that implicit invocation provides in a more modular and flexible way than current patterns. We describe the pattern in detail and present a formal model of its key features. …

Neomythism: Transfigurative Invocation and the (Re)Enchantment Engine in Human-AI Collaborative Art
… possibility through what I term Transfigurative Invocation: the hyperstitional practice whereby desire becomes prompt, prompt becomes artifact that reconstellates collective memory, and in this recursive movement, the practitioner constructs new knowledge of self and world—opening space for …

The Ethics of Occultic Communication: An Invocation of Joshua Gunn and Sissela Bok
<p>Occultic rhetoric, according to Joshua Gunn, is a genre of discourse concerned with the study and practice of secret communications. The strategic sharing of secret messages involves a host of methods and conventions designed for the selective disclosure of hidden knowledge, thus controlling the …

Invocation of international trade agreements by private parties before domestic courts : a Namibian perspective
This dissertation discusses research undertaken on the topic of whether private parties have locus standi to invoke international trade agreements through Namibian courts. The study investigates how effective domestic courts are in adjudicating on matters pertaining to international trade law in …

THE PROGRAM PATHING TRUST MODEL FOR CRITICAL SYSTEM PROCESS AUTHORIZATION
… these critical servers – validating process invocation sequences. The purpose of this research is to increase operating system security by detecting, validating, and enforcing process invocation sequences within a critical system. If the processes on a critical system are not those that are …

The application of structure and code metrics to large scale systems
… and Collofello's Stability measure and McClure's Invocation complexity, to various observed measures of complexity such as, ERRORS, CHANGES and CODING TIME. These metrics are referred to as structure measures since they measure control flow and data flow interfaces between system components. …

A Coupling-Complexity Metric Suite for Predicting Software Quality
… and 2) determine the complexity of a method invocation chain through the transitive relation of invocations involved in a coupling. This results in a measure that identifies objects that are coupled to highly complex methods or method invocation chains. The metrics were implemented as an …

(Un)veiling nature : a comparative study of Spenser's poetics in Mutabilitie canto seven
… In the first six chapters, I will examine the invocation of the muse in stanzas one and two of Mutabilitie Canto VII, and the representation of Nature in stanza five through nine, in the context of Spenser’s earlier work and the work of other poets and poetic theorists. After a scrutiny of the …

Certificação de composições de serviços web semânticos
… composition, i.e., to ensure that each service invocation given in the composition comply with its respective service definition. The certification of this dimension exploits the semantic compatibility between the invocation arguments and formal parameters of the semantic web service. Functional …

Object tracking in distributed systems
… cost, increasing availability, and improving invocation performance. One problem with object mobility is object tracking. Several schemes exist to handle the problem. A forwarding address scheme is used in DEMOS/MP and Emerald. To reduce the number of forwarding messages, DEMOS/MP uses an …

Application semantics based optimization of distributed algorithm
… In particular, we first look for function invocations in the algorithm whose post-conditions are already satisfied as a result of the application invariants. Each such invocation is considered as a potential redundant module. We further analyze the distributed algorithm to identify the …

Panda: Fast access to persistent arrays using high-level interfaces and server directed input/output
… arrays are persistent, i.e., they outlive the invocation of the program that created them. Portability and performance with respect to input and output (i/o) pose significant challenges to applications accessing large persistent arrays, especially in distributed-memory environments. A …

Automated Negotiation Among Web Services
… Our proposed approach considers the different invocation patterns of component services in the system and models the dependency relationship for optimum values of these QoS parameters. We present a service composition framework that models the dependency relations ship among component services …

A mechanized Theory of Aspects
… themselves instead of the intended target of an invocation. This altered invocation of the aspect is able to alter, extend or even replace parts of the original program. Being able to drastically alter the base application's structure comes at the price of a decrease in safety: aspects themselves …

Falling Forward: Continuity and Change in the Poetics of Eden

Modeling the Dark Matter of Galaxy Clusters Using the Tensor-Vector-Scalar Theory of Alternate Gravity
The invocation of dark matter in the universe is predicated upon gravitational observations that cannot be explained by the amount of luminous matter that we detect. There is an ongoing debate over which gravitational model is correct. The work herein tests a prescription of gravity theory known as …

Water Imagery in Paradise Lost
