Enterprise Information Systems Engineering
by Monique SnoeckThe increasing penetration of IT in organizations calls for an integrative perspective on enterprises and their supporting information systems. MERODE offers an intuitive and practical approach to enterprise modelling and using these models as core for building enterprise information systems. From a business analyst perspective, benefits of the approach are its simplicity and the possibility to evaluate the consequences of modeling choices through fast prototyping, without requiring any technical experience. The focus on domain modelling ensures the development of a common language for talking about essential business concepts and of a shared understanding of business rules. On the construction side, experienced benefits of the approach are a clear separation between specification and implementation, more generic and future-proof systems, and an improved insight in the cost of changes. A first distinguishing feature is the method's grounding in process algebra provides clear criteria and practical support for model quality. Second, the use of the concept of business events provides a deep integration between structural and behavioral aspects. The clear and intuitive semantics easily extend to application integration (COTS software and Web Services). Students and practitioners are the book's main target audience, as both groups will benefit from its practical advice on how to create complete models which combine structural and behavioral views of a system-to-be and which can readily be transformed into code, and on how to evaluate the quality of those models. In addition, researchers in the area of conceptual or enterprise modelling will find a concise overview of the main findings related to the MERODE project. The work is complemented by a wealth of extra material on the author's web page at KU Leuven, including a free CASE tool with code generator, a collection of cases with solutions, and a set of domain modelling patterns that have been developed on the basis of the method's use in industry and government.

Entity Authentication and Personal Privacy in Future Cellular Systems
by Geir M. KoienThere are now (Q1 2009) more than 4 billion cellular subscribers in the world and this number is constantly growing. With this in mind it should be clear that use of mobile communication has already become both pervasive and ubiquitous. It has become a global commodity really. Entity Authentication and Personal Privacy in Future Cellular Systems aims at explaining and examining access security as it is found in mobile/cellular systems. A thorough investigation of how access security and personal privacy is handled in the 3GPP system is conducted. This includes both the 2G systems GSM/GPRS and the 3G system UMTS. The emerging fourth generation LTE architecture is also examined. The first part of the book deals exclusively with presenting access security as found in the 3GPP system. Particular attention is given to the authentication and key agreement procedures. The 3GPP systems have evolved and the access security architecture in LTE is substantially more advanced and mature than what you would find in GSM/GPRS, but even the LTE security architecture has its limitations. In part two of the book we go on to examine what is missing from the current cellular access security architectures. Some of the shortcomings found in GSM/GPRS and later UMTS have been partially addressed in LTE, but the burden of backwards compatibility has meant that many issues could not easily be resolved. Free from those restrictions, we shall see that one can provide substantially improved subscriber privacy and enhanced entity authentication, while also avoiding the delegated authentication control that all 3GPP systems have.The design of authentication protocols is discussed in depth, and this would also include looking into the role of formal verification in the design of security protocols.

Entomopathogenic Fungi: Prospects and Challenges
by Kandikere Ramaiah Sridhar Sunil Kumar DeshmukhThis book brings together the molecular aspects of the pathogenesis of entomopathogenic fungi, various aspects of mycoinsecticide development, and regulatory aspects to highlight the immense contribution of the agricultural sector. The chapters address aspects of entomopathogenic fungi, including host-pathogen interactions (susceptibility and resistance), fungus-insect and fungus-fungus dual interactions, phylogeny and taxonomy, biochemistry, and molecular basis of enteropathogenesis, market potential of entomopathogens, regulatory aspects, bioprospecting of fungi, fungi as crop bodyguards and in disease suppression, and consortia for the control of insect pests and pathogens in single crop systems. Written by experts in academia and industry from Algeria, Brazil, Hungary, India, Italy, Malaysia, Oman, Pakistan, and the United States, the book overviews entomopathogenic fungi used as biological control agents against insect pests and other arthropods, their mode of action, pathogenesis, bioactive metabolites, mycotoxins involved, their mass production, limitations, and agricultural- and environment-related issues. It also includes developing various biopesticide products, with special references to formulations and prospects. In agriculture, crop protection and production depend on insect pests controlled by entomopathogenic fungi. Understanding the pathogenicity, mechanism of action, formulations, and applications of a wide array of entomopathogenic fungi as biopesticides is a valid eco-friendly approach. The book provides advances in pathogenicity, biochemistry, virulence, and interaction that facilitate the application of Beauveria, Metarhizium, and other entomopathogens as potential biopesticides against major insect pests. Developments in bioactive compounds, secondary metabolites, enzymes, and toxins of entomopathogenic fungi have facilitated precise applications and management to target insect pests. Further advances in molecular aspects, the formulation of nanobiopesticides, and biofabricated technology paved the way for insect pest control. This book will be a helpful resource for students, teachers, researchers, scientists, and professionals in the industry working on biological sciences, applied entomology, mycology, zoology, forestry, biochemistry, molecular biology, and nanotechnology.
