Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited<br>Critical infrastructure systems, such as water and electricity, are important for society and national defense. There is a need for network analysis tools that allow analysts to study potential scenarios to discover vulnerabilities, assess consequences, and evaluate effective solutions to overcome network weaknesses. In order to be useful, models of critical infrastructure systems need to be realistic, both geospatially and functionally. The objective of this thesis is to bridge the gap between geospatial and functional network analysis by developing a software tool that allows users to create and edit networks in a Graphical Information System (GIS) visual environment, and then also run and view the results of functional network models. Our primary contribution is to provide an easy-to-use, graphical interface in the form of a plugin that allows users, regardless of their network expertise, to create networks and exercise network flow models on them. We demonstrate the usefulness of our plugin through the analysis of a fictional case study with a realistic Internet infrastructure. We run several minimum cost flow models with simulated network attacks to assess the robustness of the network.

A forma de uso dos módulos é exemplificada utilizando projetos simples escritos em Verilog. As funcionalidades da ferramenta, assim como o seu desempenho, são comparadas com algumas ferramentas comerciais e acadêmicas. Assim, algumas conclusões são apresentadas, mostrando que o tempo de simulação é consideravelmente menor quando efetuada a comparação com as ferramentas comerciais e acadêmicas.

VEasy contains four main modules that perform linting, simulation, coverage collection/analysis and testcase generation, which are considered key challenges of the process. Each of those modules is commented in details throughout the chapters. All the modules are integrated and built on top of a Graphical User Interface. This framework enables the testcase automation methodology which is based on layers, where one is capable of creating complex test scenarios using drag-anddrop operations. Whenever possible the usage of the modules is exemplified using simple Verilog designs. The capabilities of this tool and its performance were compared with some commercial and academic functional verification tools. Finally, some conclusions are drawn, showing that the overall simulation time is considerably smaller with respect to commercial and academic simulators. The results also show that the methodology is capable of enabling a great deal of testcase automation by using the layering scheme.

Abstract:
Introduction: Football is one of the most popular sports world-wide. As with any sport, there is a risk of injury during participation. Therefore screening procedures are important not only to reduce the risk of injury but also for developing subsequent injury prevention programmes. Assessing functional movement is vital in screening in order to examine an athlete’s ability to perform fundamental tasks required for a specific sport. Currently in football no standardised functional screening protocols are widely available. Aim: To Develop a Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football Method Phase 1: A modified online, two round Delphi consensus panel was utilised to establish which tests should be included in a Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football. The panel of experts consisted of Physiotherapists working in Premiership Football. Results Phase 1: 14 Premiership Football Physiotherapists participated in Round 1 and 8 Premiership Football Physiotherapists in Round 2. After the completion of two rounds, the Delphi consensus panel identified 12 tests that should be included in a Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football. Method Phase 2: An online questionnaire survey was used to explore the level of agreement of Physiotherapists working in non-Premiership football on the 12 tests selected in Phase 1. This was distributed through email, postal invites and via twitter. Each participant was asked to rate their level of agreement with each test selected for the Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football. Results Phase 2: 26 Physiotherapists working in non-Premiership football agreed with the inclusion of 10 out of the 12 tests selected by the consensus panel in Phase 1. The single-leg squat, deep squat, in-line lunge, Y-balance test, modified Thomas test, internal rotators of the hip assessment, vertical jump test, external rotators of the hip assessment, adductor/groin flexibility test and gastrocnemius test were included in the final Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football. Discussion: A total of 40 Physiotherapists working in football collectively identified 10 tests to be included in a Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football. Although 10 tests have been identified for inclusion in the screening tool, standardised procedures still need to be defined for each test. Interestingly the tests selected for inclusion in the Functional Movement Screening Tool for Football were a combination of functional, balance, performance and muscle length tests. This highlights either a lack of understanding around the term functional movement or identifies a need for an overall screening tool in football as no standardised protocol is widely available at present. Conclusion: A screening tool specific for football has been developed. The use of a modified Delphi consensus panel successfully recruited and gained the views from Premiership Football Physiotherapists, a population which is normally difficult to access. Further research into the reliability and validity of the screening tool need to be examined in future studies. Successful methods for overcoming barriers in performing football research have been identified; in particular twitter may serve as a valuable resource for knowledge sharing in football.

Abstract:
Background: Software testing is a crucial part of the system's development life-cycle, which pays off in detecting flaws and defects, alternatively leading to high-quality products. Generally, software testing is performed manually by a human operator or automatically. While many test cases are written and executed, the testing process checks if all the requirements are covered, and the system exhibits the expected behavior. A great portion of the cost and time of the software development is spent on testing; therefore, considering the type of the software, test optimization is needed and presented as a solution in cost efficiency and time-saving. Aim: This thesis aims to propose and evaluate the improved sOrTES+ tool for test optimization purposes, consisting of selection, prioritization, and scheduling of the test cases integrated into a dynamic user interface. Method: In this thesis, test optimization is addressed in two aspects, low-level requirements and high-level requirements. Our solution analyzes these requirements to detect the dependencies between test cases. Thus, we propose sOrTES+, a tool that uses three different scheduling techniques: Greedy, Greedy DO(direct output), and Greedy TO(total output) for test optimization. The mentioned techniques are integrated into a dynamic user interface that allows testers to manage their projects, see useful information about test cases and requirements, store the executed test cases while scheduling the remaining ones for execution, and also switch between the mentioned scheduling techniques regarding the project requirements. Finally, we demonstrated its applicability and compared our tool with existing testing techniques used by our industrial partner, Alstom company, evaluating the efficiency in terms of requirement coverage and troubleshooting time. Results: Our comparison shows that our solution improves the requirement coverage, increasing it by 26.4% while decreasing the troubleshooting time by 6%. Conclusion: Based on our results, we conclude that our proposed tool, sOrTES+, can be used for test optimization and it performs more efficiently than the existing methods used by industrial partner Alstom company.

Abstract:
The increasing complexity of embedded systems development is becoming difficult to handle with development environments based on disjoint engineering tools. Support for interactions between various engineering tools, especially through automated means, has therefore received an increased amount of attention during the last few years. The subsequent increase in the amount of tool integration is leading to an increased impact of tool integration on non-functional properties of development efforts, development environments and end products. At the same time there is a lack of methods and tools for analysing the relationship between these properties and tool integration. To establish a foundation for analysing this generic relationship, the specific relationship between tool integration and the safety of end products is analysed in this thesis. A survey was conducted to analyze the State of the Art of tool integration as related to safety. This survey specifically identified the lack of an efficient handling of tool integration by modern safety standards as an important concern. In relation to this survey, three theories were identified as of specific importance. These are the school of thought known as Systems Thinking, the Systems-Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) causality model and the System-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) hazard analysis technique. Building on these theories, this thesis provides original contributions intended to (1) describe concepts and models related to tool integration and safety (the first and second contribution), (2) link tool integration to safety in a way that reduces complexity during analysis (the third contribution) and (3) propose how to interpret and make use of the implications of the presented theories and the first three contributions (the fourth and fifth contribution). • The first contribution is a new conceptual model of a development effort that emphasizes tool integration. • The second contribution is a new reference model for tool integration in highly heterogeneous environments. • The third contribution consists of nine safety-related tool chain properties, i.e. properties of tool chains that could mitigate at least part of the risks introduced by tool integration. • The fourth contribution is a proposition on how to identify safety implications due to a high level of automation of tool integration. • The fifth contribution is a proposition for a new software tool qualification process.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND:It is common for the results of a microarray study to be analyzed in the context of biologically-motivated groups of genes such as pathways or Gene Ontology categories. The most common method for such analysis uses the hypergeometric distribution (or a related technique) to look for "over-representation" of groups among genes selected as being differentially expressed or otherwise of interest based on a gene-by-gene analysis. However, this method suffers from some limitations, and biologist-friendly tools that implement alternatives have not been reported.RESULTS:We introduce ErmineJ, a multiplatform user-friendly stand-alone software tool for the analysis of functionally-relevant sets of genes in the context of microarray gene expression data. ErmineJ implements multiple algorithms for gene set analysis, including over-representation and resampling-based methods that focus on gene scores or correlation of gene expression profiles. In addition to a graphical user interface, ErmineJ has a command line interface and an application programming interface that can be used to automate analyses. The graphical user interface includes tools for creating and modifying gene sets, visualizing the Gene Ontology as a table or tree, and visualizing gene expression data. ErmineJ comes with a complete user manual, and is open-source software licensed under the Gnu Public License.CONCLUSION:The availability of multiple analysis algorithms, together with a rich feature set and simple graphical interface, should make ErmineJ a useful addition to the biologist's informatics toolbox. ErmineJ is available from http://microarray.cu.genome.org webcite.

Abstract:
This paper presents the process and outcomes of the pilot introduction of Functional Analysis Diagram (FAD) as a design assist tool within a Small Medium Enterprise (SME). During this study, two sets of Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA) sessions were conducted using the traditional and the proposed, FAD assisted (FMEA-FAD) method developed, aiming to optimize the failure mode selection phase of the process. The results have shown that the FMEA-FAD method has significantly improved the efficiency and the effectiveness of the process. They were also consistent with previous research, suggesting that FAD is relatively easy to use, supports high levels of understanding through functional decomposition, and can be used as an interdisciplinary communication platform (Aurisicchio et al., 2011). Given the resource limitations in SMEs, such an efficiency improvement could be vital for a resource intensive process such as FMEA. FAD discourages disciplinary terminologies in function descriptions; instead, the functions can be represented simply by the combination of an active verb and a measurable noun. Breaking the system down into lower level subsystems and studying the functional interrelationships between system components, can help us understand the overall system functions (Pahl et al., 1996). As market needs are mostly determined based on past user experience (Norman, 2010), innovation commonly occurs incrementally. Although this practice reduces risks — being, as it is, based on already tested platforms, incremental innovation often leads to the retention of superfluous components and outdated technologies. The process of functional modeling prompts the users to question the existence of every component and feature within a product or process, potentially leading to a radical reassessment of a design against the need which created it.

Abstract:
The functional empirical process is a very powerful tool for deriving asymptotic laws for almost any kind of statistics whenever we know how to express them into functions of the sample. Since this method seems to be applied more and more in the very recent future, this paper is intended to provide a complete but short description and justification of the method and to illustrate it with a non-trivial example using bivariate data. It may also serve for citation without repeating the arguments

Abstract:
The increased reliance on online schooling modalities calls for provision of sufficient security in education management information systems (EMIS). Addressing cybersecurity-related issues is imperative for continuity of education service delivery and resilience of education systems. In case of any cybersecurity threat materializing, an EMIS must recover and be functional within an acceptable period and level of data loss. This tool kit provides guidance for decision-makers and practitioners on how to formulate strategies and implement cybersecurity measures in an EMIS, what cybersecurity issues to guard against, and potential solutions.

Abstract:
Description Logics (DLs) with concrete domains are a useful tool in many applications. To further enhance the expressive power of such DLs, it has been proposed to add database-style key constraints. Up to now, however, only uniqueness constraints have been considered in this context, thus neglecting the second fundamental family of key constraints: functional dependencies. In this paper, we consider the basic DL with concrete domains ALC(D), extend it with functional dependencies, and analyze the impact of this extension on the decidability and complexity of reasoning. Though intuitively the expressivity of functional dependencies seems weaker than that of uniqueness constraints, we are able to show that the former have a similarly severe impact on the computational properties: reasoning is undecidable in the general case, and NExpTime-complete in some slightly restricted variants of our logic.
