The Android operating system, originally intended for smartphone devices, is now finding its way into cars and other vehicles. While the Android system already implements support for system updates, it is not suitable for use in the automotive domain. It is not compatible with modern automotive standards for diagnostic communication such as ISO 14229: Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS). This means that new tools, procedures and software would be needed to allow an Android device to be updated by a service technician in a repair shop or on the field. A better approach would be to add support for automotive diagnostic communication in Android. This way, the tools and supporting infrastructure that already exist can still be used. We have developed a solution for diagnostic communication on Android that is both modular and compatible with existing automotive standards. By using the standard ISO 13400: Diagnostic communication over Internet Protocol (DoIP), this solution enables both updating the system software on the Android device itself, as well as diagnostic communication with the ECUs on the vehicle’s internal CAN network. Thus, an existing diagnostic port based on a slower communication protocol such as CAN or J1587 could theoretically be replaced completely by the Android device’s Ethernet port. Finally, we have evaluated the performance of our implementation under various settings and conditions. These include varying the maximum size of a diagnostic message, different network settings, downloading software over a Wi-Fi link, and downloading data to multiple devices simultaneously.
Operativsystemet Android, ursprungligen avsett för smartphone-enheter, återfinns numera även i bilar och andra typer av fordon. Även om Android-systemet redan implementerar stöd för system-uppdateringar, är det inte lämpligt att använda i fordonsindustrin. Den är inte kompatibel med moderna fordons-standarder för diagnoskommunikation som t.ex. ISO:14229: Enhetliga diagnostiktjänster (UDS). Detta innebär att det skulle krävas nya verktyg, procedurer och mjukvara för att möjliggöra att en Android-enhet uppdaterades av en service-tekniker i verkstad eller i fält. Ett bättre tillvägagångssätt skulle vara att lägga till support för diagnoskommunikation i Android. På detta sätt skulle redan existerande verktyg och stödjande infrastruktur kunna fortsätta användas. Vi har utvecklat en lösning för diagnoskommunikation i Android som är både modulär och kompatibel med existerande fordonsstandarder. Genom att använda ISO 13400: Diagnostikkommunikation över Internet-protokoll (DoIP) möjliggör denna lösning både uppdatering av systemmjukvaran i själva Android-enheten, samt diagnoskommunikation med övriga styrenheter på fordonets interna CAN-nätverk. Därmed skulle en befintlig diagnosport baserad på ett långsammare kommunikationsprotokoll såsom CAN eller J1587 teoretiskt kunna ersättas helt och hållet med Android-enhetens Ethernet-port. Slutligen har vi testat vår implementations prestanda under varierande inställningar och förhållanden. Dessa inkluderar bland annat att variera den maximala storleken av ett diagnos-meddelande, olika nätverks-inställningar, att uppdatera mjukvaran över en Wi-Fi-länk, samt att uppdatera mjukvaran på flera enheter samtidigt.

The superior reconfigurability of software defined radio mobile devices has made it one of the most promising technology on the wireless network and in the mobile communication industry. The evolution from a static and rigid system to a highly dynamic environment, which offers many advantages over current systems, has been made possible thanks to the concepts of programmability and reconfigurability introduced by the software defined radio technology and the higher level of flexibility and openness of this technology's devices. Clearly, the software defined radio mobile device's flexibility is a great advantage since the customer is able to use the same device in different parts of the world, with different wireless technologies. Despite the advantages, there are still issues to be discussed regarding security. According to the Software Defined Radio Forum some of the concerns are the radio configuration download, storage and installation, user's privacy, and cloning. To address the SDR Forum concerns a raud-prevention framework is proposed. The framework is composed by new pieces of hardware, new modules and new protocols that together greatly enhance the overall security of software defined radio mobile devices and this new highly dynamic environment. The framework offers security monitoring against malicious attacks and viruses that may affect the configuration data; protects sensitive information through the use of protected storage; creates and protects an identity for the system; employs a secure and efficient protocol for radio configuration download and update; and finally, establishes an anti-cloning scheme, which not only guarantees that no units can be cloned over the air but also elevates the level of difficulty to clone units if the attacker has physical access to those units. Even if cloned units exist, the anti-cloning scheme is able to identify them and deny any service.

DySCAS ar ett forskningsprojekt inom bilindustrin som syftar till att ta fram en framtida standard for elektroniksystemet i bilar som tillfredsstaller bade dagens och framtidens krav ifran biltillverkarna. Detta examensarbete genomfordes pa Enea under hosten 2007 med syftet att utreda hur programladdning genom en extern och saker kommunikationslank till varje nod i ett DySCAS-system ska implementeras. Vidare ska examensarbetet utreda hur policys, som ar en del av angreppssattet for att fa systemet att bete sig autonomt, ska hanteras inom DySCAS nar det kommer till att lagra dessa i systemet. Slutligen ska AUTOSAR, som ar en redan be ntlig standardisering inom bilindustrin, studeras for att utreda vilka krav som ska stallas pa DySCASarkitekturen for att den ska kunna samexistera med AUTOSAR. Efter en inledande litteraturstudie, dar de ovan presenterade omradena studerades ingaende, gjordes en design av mjukvarusystemet som senare skulle implementeras i referensplattformen pa Enea. Implementationen av detsamma foljdes aven av omfattande tester. En allman design av hur systemet ska hantera programvaruladdning har tagits fram som tillater bade enstaka komponenter likval som innehallet pa en hel nod att uppdateras. I den efterfoljande implementationen sa har mojligheten att anvanda sig av CAN-natverket for att uppdatera programvaran som kors pa en eller era noder i ett DySCAS system, med hjalp av en externt pakopplad "uppdaterarnod", utnyttjats. Vidare sa har en Repository Service , som anvander Eneas realtidsdatabas Polyhedra som den underliggande lagringsplatsen, designats och implementerats i DySCAS-demonstrator-plattformen pa Enea. Den implementerade mjukvarukomponenten tillhandahaller mojligheten att lagra policys och kontextinformation och ar darav en del i att fa DySCAS-systemet att bete sig autonomt. Repository Servicen tillhandahaller ocksa DySCAS-systemet med en allman lagringsplats som later bade andra mellanprogramvarukomponenter och applikationer som kors ovanpa mellanprogramvaran att lagra data. Slutligen har en design av hur DySCAS och AUTOSAR bor utvecklas for att de tva systemet ska kunna samexistera i ett storre system tagits fram.
DySCAS is an automotive research project with the purpose of providing a future standard within the vehicle electronics layer satisfying the needs of both today's and tomorrow's automotive producers. This master thesis was carried out at Enea during the fall of 2007 with the purpose of investigating the implementation of software download through an external and secure communication link to every node in a DySCAS system. Furthermore it aimed at investigating how policies, which are a part of making the system behave autonomously, should be managed in the DySCAS project when it came to storing these in a repository. Finally, the AUTOSAR standardization, another automotive project, was studied for an investigation to be made about which requirements that should be set on the architecture of DySCAS, for it to co-exist with the AUTOSAR standardization. After an initial literature study, addressing the issues presented above, a design of the software system was carried out followed by an implementation and testing of this software. A general design of a system supporting software load, allowing both the replacement of one middleware component as well as the update of an entire node running in the DySCAS middleware, has been presented. In the subsequent implementation the possibility of using the CAN network to upgrade the software running on one or more DySCAS nodes with the help of an externally connected "upgrading node" has been explored and successfully implemented in the demonstrator platform. Furthermore, a Repository Service , using Enea's Polyhedra real-time database as the underlying repository, has been designed and implemented in the DySCAS demonstrator platform at Enea. The implemented software component supports the storage of policies and context information and thus aids the system in the objective of behaving autonomously. The Repository Service also provides the DySCAS system with a general storage facility, allowing other parts of the middleware or applications running on top of the middleware to store data. Finally, a design of how DySCAS and AUTOSAR should be elaborated to t together in one bigger system has been presented.

Abstract: The goal of the present study consists of examining the taxation of software focusing on the municipal service tax (ISS) and the tax on the circulation of goods and on services of interstate and Intermunicipal transportation and communication (ICMS). It is not properly a new theme and it was for sure deeply discussed along the last three decades. Nevertheless, the taxation of software is a topic of constant evolution, due to the fact that the software itself is a good that composes the information technology segment, which suffers changes in every minute, bringing more modernity to our day-by-day. The technological innovation introduces effective changes in the computing elements from the past and, as a consequence, the criteria used by the courts to define the tax treatment of software are also modified. Therefore, new challenges about the topic are set, especially in how to adapt the fundamentals before defined by the jurisprudence to guide the taxation of this important economic segment. Thus, reviewing relevant topics discussed in the past, such as the definition of the levy of these taxes based on technical and commercial concepts of computing program (standard software and personalized software), becomes extremely important. This study intends to demonstrate that, in spite of the fast and endless technological evolution, the taxation of software by ISS and ICMS must consider in the first place the characteristics of the legal transaction that supports the supply of the computer program, using its technical aspects as auxiliary elements to define the more adequate tax treatment.
O objeto do presente estudo consiste em examinar a tributação dos softwares sob as perspectivas do ISS e do ICMS. Não se trata propriamente de um tema novo, sendo certo que muito já se discutiu a seu respeito ao longo das últimas três décadas. No entanto, a tributação do software é assunto em constante evolução, eis que o software em si é bem que integra o segmento de informática e este se modifica a cada momento, trazendo cada vez mais modernidade ao nosso dia-a-dia. A inovação tecnológica introduz alterações efetivas nos elementos informáticos de outrora e os critérios utilizados pelos tribunais para se definir o tratamento tributário do software, por decorrência, também são alterados. Surgem, assim, novos desafios relacionados ao assunto, em especial como adaptar os fundamentos anteriormente consagrados pela jurisprudência para direcionar a tributação deste importante segmento econômico. Assim, revisitar temas relevantes, discutidos no passado, como a definição da incidência desses tributos a partir de conceitos técnico-comerciais dos programas de computador (softwares de prateleira e softwares por encomenda), torna-se extremamente importante. O presente estudo visa, portanto, examinar os novos desafios da tributação do software, sob as perspectivas do ISS e do ICMS, a partir dos novos negócios existentes no segmento da informática, viabilizados pelos 'downloads' e pelo acesso remoto ao ambiente de nuvem ('cloud computing'). O presente estudo visa, por essência, demonstrar que, a despeito da evolução tecnológica veloz e infindável, a tributação do software pelo ISS e pelo ICMS deve colocar em primeiro plano as características do negócio jurídico que alicerçam o fornecimento do programa de computador, utilizando seus aspectos técnicos como elementos meramente auxiliares da definição do tratamento tributário mais adequado à hipótese.

Despite the continued demand for open source security software, a gap in the identification of success factors related to the success of open source security software persists. There are no studies that accurately assess the extent of this persistent gap, particularly with respect to the strength of the relationships of open source software development attributes and the number of security software downloads. The research conducted in this study investigates the strength of the relationships of particular open source software project development factors against a particular measure of open source security software success. This research focuses on open source software development with an emphasis on anti-virus, firewall and intrusion detection software. Additionally, reviewed in this study are some key cyber-security events that have shaped the cyber landscape as well as descriptions of some security technologies that have emerged as a result of those events. A level of correlation between the dependent variable number of software downloads and the independent variables project team size and number of software project events are analyzed in this research.

Táto práca sa zaoberá problematikou škodlivého kódu na webe so zameraním na analýzu a detekciu škodlivého JavaScriptu umiestneného na strane klienta s využitím strojového učenia. Navrhnutý prístup využíva známe i nové pozorovania s ohľadom na rozdiely medzi škodlivými a legitímnymi vzorkami. Tento prístup má potenciál detekovať nové exploity i zero-day útoky. Systém pre takúto detekciu bol implementovaný a využíva modely strojového učenia. Výkon modelov bol evaluovaný pomocou F1-skóre na základe niekoľkých experimentov. Použitie rozhodovacích stromov sa podľa experimentov ukázalo ako najefektívnejšia možnosť. Najefektívnejším modelom sa ukázal byť Adaboost klasifikátor s dosiahnutým F1-skóre až 99.16 %. Tento model pracoval s 200 inštanciami randomizovaného rozhodovacieho stromu založeného na algoritme Extra-Trees. Viacvrstvový perceptrón bol druhým najlepším modelom s dosiahnutým F1-skóre 97.94 %.

In an automotive context today’s need of testing functions while in factory, correcting faults in the workshop or adding extra value in the aftermarket makes it very important to easily be able to download new software to the electronic control units in vehicles. In the platform for standard automotive software development called AUTOSAR, two known protocols are presented to specify the procedure on how to implement this download operation: Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS) and the Universal Measurement and Calibration Protocol (XCP). However the part of the UDS and XCP standards that is about reprogramming is not completely a part of the AUTOSAR standard yet. In this thesis, UDS and XCP have been compared to evaluate which of the two that has most support in AUTOSAR today and are most likely to be fully integrated into AUTOSAR in the future. Since UDS already has support in AUTOSAR for some of the functions needed for reprogramming and because of the fact that UDS is a part of the extensively used On-board Diagnostic standard (OBD-II), UDS is chosen to be the most suitable protocol for implementing reprogramming functionality according to AUTOSAR. A bootloader with the ability to download data has been developed using only relevant functions from UDS and following the AUTOSAR specifications where it is applicable.
För att kunna testa fordonsfunktioner i fabriken, åtgärda mjukvarufel under service eller för att uppgradera fordonet med nya funktioner är det viktigt att kunna ladda ner ny mjukvara till fordonets styrsystem. Den standardiserade mjukvaruplattformen för fordonsindustrin, AUTOSAR, innehåller två protokoll som båda specificerar hur mjukvara kan laddas ner: Unified Diagnostic Services (UDS) och Universal Measurement and Calibration Protocol (XCP). Tyvärr är de delarna av UDS och XCP som beskriver mjukvarunerladdning inte en del av AUTOSAR än. I det här examensarbetet har UDS och XCP jämförts för att utvärdera vilken av de båda som i dagsläget har störst stöd för nerladdning av mjukvara i AUTOSAR och vilken som troligast kommer att bli en del av AUTOSAR i framtiden. Eftersom AUTOSAR redan stödjer några av de funktioner i UDS som behövs för nerladdning av mjukvara samt på grund av att UDS är en del av branschstandarden för fordonsdiagnostik OBD-II, har UDS valts som den mest lämpade att i dagsläget användas för att implementera nerladdning av mjukvara enligt AUTOSAR. En bootloader som stödjer nerladdning av mjukvara via UDS har sedan implementerats enligt AUTOSAR-specifikationen så långt som möjligt.

This dissertation explores the behaviors of software downloading of college students in Taiwan by both phenomenological method and a semi-structured interviewing. The purpose is to understand the intention of students’ software download and intellectual property rights then to conduct an internet ethics curriculum with a cognitive process of critical thinking. There are five main conclusions of this dissertation: 1.Students’ behaviors of software download may affect by their previous experiences, availability of technology and the price of software. 2.Students take the software download as personal affairs and be unconscious intellectual property rights. 3.The execution of university network specification and force of the implement intellectual property rights could reduce the illegal downloading. 4.The campus advocacy for intellectual property rights and the provision of educational software licensing will be able to reduce the behaviors of illegal downloading. 5.Internet ethics courses focus only on theoretical explanations can’t help students change the behavior of software download. It has to change students’ legal downloading merely through the internet ethics due to their affordable ability for software. In a short, an ethics with P （Privacy）, A（Autonomy）, C（Caring）, T（Trust） is helpful to improve students’ behaviors properly while using internet downloading. Finally, this dissertation makes three concrete recommendations for good use of software download and to improve the teaching effectiveness of internet ethics. There are: 1.Expanding the sources of intellectual property knowledge acquisition to enhance students’ ability to act as a good citizenship based upon the law and morality. 2.The hidden curriculum should be taken as an important impact to facilitate students’ passions to act morally. 3.Conduct an experiential realistic on ethics curriculum based on privacy, autonomy, caring and trust should be further constructed as a model for ethical teaching.

In regard to the use of the software, the “Free” and “Open” trend have been emphasized by the public. In addition, Open Source Software has gradually become the popular topics and the new force in the information industry. Compared with the proprietary software, the OSS’ development has been established in coordination with the communities. Furthermore, communities’ ideas can be utilized efficiently via various information channels. The aim of this study is to take the interaction of OSS’ communities as the starting point. Therefore, in order to adopt the method of Social Network Analysis to explore members’ behavior in the network, three constructive dimensions have been generalized — Quasi-Spokesperson’s Effect, Network Effect and Electronic Word-of-Mouth, which could be introduced into the measurement of the effect upon OSS’ download quantities through the statistic method, determining whether the OSS’ scenario is similar to the commodities’ or not. The findings show that OSS’ download quantities is influenced obviously by Quasi-Spokesperson’s Effect; OSS’ download quantities is not influenced by Network Effect obviously; OSS’ download quantities is influenced by Electronic Word-of-Mouth obviously.
