SERIE DE SEMINARIOS EM COMPUTACAO
INSTITUTO DE COMPUTACAO - UNICAMP
Data: 8 DE OUTUBRO de 2008, quarta.
Hora: 14-16:00
Local: sala 85, IC-2.
Palestrante: Dr.Juan Carlos Ruiz, Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (UPV)
Titulo: "Resilience Assessment of mobile systems: From devices to the
network (The UPV Experience)"
Abstract: Pervasive computing is not only going to change the way we
will live and interact with (smart) devices, it will also definitely
change the way engineers design such devices and develop software for
them. Indeed, centralized computing won't exist anymore. New computing
systems are going to be defined in terms of devices that will work in
concert to support users in carrying out their everyday life
activities. This will be done by using information and intelligence
that is hidden in the (wireless) network connecting such devices. As
they grow smaller, more connected, more mobile and more integrated
into our environment, devices will become more sensitive to physical
faults, interaction mistakes, or malicious attacks and disruptions. As
a result, this new paradigm calls not only for new ways of thinking
systems at every system level (from hardware and network layers,
through the operating system and middleware, to applications) but also
for the consideration of security and dependability issues at all of
these levels. This seminar will explore some of the existing research
initiatives at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (UPV) focused
on the design and evaluation of mobile systems: resilience
benchmarking of SoCs used to produce mobile devices, reflective- and
aspect-oriented approaches to improve the resilience of mobile
solutions at both HW and SW levels, attack injection methodologies to
evaluate security properties in wireless (ad hoc) networks and
intrusion detection approaches to improve such properties whenever
required.
Short Biografy:
Dr. Juan Carlos Ruiz received the MS degree in Computer Science from
the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (Spain) in 1998, and his
Ph.D. from the Institut National Polytechnique of Toulouse (France) in
2002. His thesis work was carried out at the LAAS (Laboratoire d’
Analyse et d’Architecture des Systèmes) laboratory, where he
investigated in the Jean-Claude Laprie research group. It focused on
testing reflective fault tolerant systems and it was partially
supported by France-Telecom, the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche
Scientifique) and the JSPS (Japan Society for the Promotion of
Science). During his Ph.D., he visited the Tsukuba University in
Japan, where we worked with Professor Shigeru Chiba in the
implementation of an open compiler for the provision of fault
tolerance to object-oriented systems. In 2003, Dr. Ruiz integrated the
Grupo de Sistemas Tolerantes a Fallos (GSTF) of the Universidad
Politécnica de Valencia. He was involved in the European project
DBench (Dependability Benchmarking). Currently, he is an assistant
professor at the Computer Science Faculty of such university, where he
is also in charge of the relations between the Faculty and
enterprises. His main research interests include, although they are
not limited to, dependability and security benchmarking, fault and
attack injection, and fault and intrusion tolerance in wireless
embedded systems. He normally serves as reviewer and program committee
in international conferences in the dependability domain, like
European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC) and the IEEE/IFIP
Dependable Systems and Networks Conference (DSN. Dr. Juan Carlos Ruiz
is member of the IFIP 10.4 SIG on Dependable Benchmarking and the
Spanish Technological Platform for Security and Dependability.
