I am chairing a special session at The Eleventh International Conference on Emerging Security Information, Systems, and Technologies (SECUREWARE 2017). The special session will focus on Secure Software Development (SSD). The conference will take place in Rome from September 10th to the 14th. Secure software development is the process involving people and practices that ensure […]

I just finished giving my first 2 hour plenary talk at the Cloud Computing 2017 conference in Athens, Greece. http://www.iaria.org/conferences2017/TutorialsCLOUDCOMPUTING17.html    

I am honored to have been asked to be a panelist for the National Science Foundation (NSF) a STEM Education Program

Presented my paper on partition tolerant modeling at the The 11th International Conference for Internet Technology and Secured Transactions (ICITST-2016) in Barcelona, Spain.  Maz Little also presented her work on Temporal Resource Scheduling.

This week I presented a paper on autonomous process authentication at the IEEE sponsored WorldCIS 2016 in London, UK.  I also delivered a keynote address and was general conference chair.

This week 8 of my students presented papers at the IEEE sponsored i-Society 2016.  Five of the students came to Dublin, Ireland and three gave remote presentations.  Three students presented two papers and I also presented a paper along with giving a keynote address.    

Sixteen students worked in data engineering lab during the 2015-16 academic year.  I like to think of my efforts in the data engineering lab in three subcategories: a.) Student Mentorship – I received funding from three different private organizations to pay students to build cloud-based software.  I do not think of these software engineering projects […]

This week, I am presenting two papers, and I am a panelist at the Cloud Computing 2016 conference in Rome, Italy.  The two papers were authored jointly with masters students in my Secure Data Engineering Lab at The College of Charleston.  Cloud Data De-Normalization investigated data modeling in the cloud and was authored with Gayathri Santhanakrishnan […]

I will be giving a keynote address at The 10th International Conference for Internet Technology and Secured Transactions (ICITST-2015) in London next Tuesday, December 15th. My presentation will discuss “Secure Software Engineering Curriculum”. In my talk, I will investigate the problem of teaching the secure development of cloud-based enterprise applications. I investigate what services should […]
