Abstract:
The economic cost of financial statement fraud continues to be a problem for organizations and society. The research problem addressed in this study was the limited risk management strategies available for the early detection and prevention of financial statement fraud by corporate managers and auditors. These strategies are important to the proactive prevention of fraud. This study is important to future trustworthiness of financial statements. The purpose of this qualitative, multiple-case study was to explore current early detection and prevention methods in financial statement fraud using

Background and aims. Early detection of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and secondary prevention by means of smoking cessation are the only available methods of stopping the progression of the disease.

The specific aims were to evaluate a method of detecting COPD at its early stages, to investigate the rate of emphysema in smokers with normal lung function and smokers defined as preclinical COPD, to investigate the effects of performed spirometries and brief smoking cess

Pressure injuries (pressure ulcers, bed sores) are a localized injury to skin and/or underlying tissues as a result of excessive pressure with or without shear force or friction.

While these injuries are considered preventable, pressure injuries have an overall prevalence of 12.3% in U.S. healthcare facilities with 40% of all pressure injury incidents being facility acquired.

Abstract:
<p> In the United States, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been categorized as a major health-threatening problem affecting a wide cross section of people. About one third of the population is unaware that they have the disease; however, early recognition of symptoms would lead to prevention, diagnosis for a better prognosis, and, in some cases, the reversal of the disease. Researchers have shown that late diagnosis leads to high mortality, morbidity, disability, loss of productivity, and high costs of health care to individuals, families, and the government.

Melanoma, the most life threatening form of skin cancer, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. However, more than 80% of melanoma diagnoses could be prevented through reduced sun exposure and improved sun protection. Early detection through skin examination increases the likelihood of identifying melanoma at an early stage, when disease prognosis is better. But prevention and early detection behaviours are sub-optimal in Australia. Further improvements to strategies that encourage these behaviours are required.

Prenat Diagn. 2010 Oct;30(10):1007-9 Objective Low levels of PAPP-A in maternal blood may become an early marker of obstetrical complications. The aim of this article was to sort out those outcomes consistently related to an abnormal placental vascular function and to evaluate their association with low levels of maternal serum PAPP-A in early pregnancy M

Abstract:
<p>Ericsson’s Packet Radio Access Network (PRAN) is a network solution for packet transport in mobile networks, which utilizes the Internet Protocol (IP). The IP protocol offers benefits in responsiveness and performance adaptation to data bursts when compared to Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), which is still often used. There are many manufacturers / operators providing IP services, which reduce costs. The IP’s use on the Internet brings greater end-user knowledge, wider user community and more programs designed for use in IP environments. Because of this, the spectrum of possible attacks

Abstract:
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) continue to grow as one of the most exciting and challenging research areas of engineering. They are characterized by severely constrained computational and energy resources and also restricted by the ad-hoc network operational environment. They pose unique challenges, due to limited power supplies, low transmission bandwidth, small memory sizes and limited energy. Therefore, security techniques used in traditional networks cannot be directly adopted. So, new ideas and approaches are needed, in order to increase the overall security of the network.

Abstract:
Cloud computing provides users with computing resources on demand. Despite the recent boom in adoption of cloud services, security remains an important issue. The aim of this work is to study the structure of cloud systems and propose a new security architecture in protecting cloud against attacks. This work also investigates auto-scaling and how it affects cloud computing security. Finally, this thesis studies load balancing and scheduling in cloud computing particularly when some of the workload is faulty or malicious. The first original contribution proposes a hierarchical model for intrusi

In order to address this issue from a fall prevention perspective, I began developing a footwear device to give feedback to the user on their walking. In this iteration, I've identified characteristics to distinguish between shuffling and walking strides for implementation

Abstract:
As the connectivity of home devices elevates so does the volume and sophistication of cyber attacks consistently grow. Therefore, the need for network security and availability becomes more significant. Numerous sorts of countermeasures like firewalls and router-based packet filtering have been put in place, although these alone are not enough to brace the network from unauthorised access. One of the most efficient methods of stopping network adversaries is using Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS). The goal of an IDPS is to stop security attacks before they can be successfully c
