Risk assessment in distributed authorization

Proceedings of the 2005 ACM workshop on Formal methods in security engineering, 2005
Distributed authorization takes into account several elements, including certificates that may be provided by non-local actors. While most trust management systems treat all assertions as equally valid up to certificate authentication, realistic considerations may associate risk with some of these elements; some actors may be less trusted than others ...

Risk management for distributed authorization

Journal of Computer Security, 2007
Distributed authorization takes into account several elements, including certificates that may be provided by non-local actors. While most trust management systems treat all assertions as equally valid up to certificate authentication, realistic considerations may associate risk with some of these elements, for example some actors may be less trusted ...

Risk Factors in Distributed Projects

Proceedings of the 39th Annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS'06), 2006
In this manuscript we develop a conceptual understanding of how key risk factors associated with Information Technology development projects are magnified or multiplied when dealing with distributed project teams as might be seen in global corporations or with the use of outsourced development resources. The analysis goes beyond the typical cultural or

Geographical Distribution of Radiation Risks in the Netherlands

Health Physics, 1998
Risk assessment of exposure to sources of radiation is an important tool for national governments in regulating radionuclide emissions and thus reducing radiation doses for the general public. For this reason radiation doses from sources throughout The Netherlands have been analyzed.

Risk and income distribution

Journal of Economic Psychology, 1988
Abstract Risk and income distribution have been linked together in theory but rarely empirically due to the absence of adequate risk-profile data. We employ for the first time psychologically-based risk data to examine this important relationship.

On matrix-exponential distributions in risk theory [PDF]

open access: possible, 2008
In this paper, a particular class of matrix-exponential distributions is described, also with respect to its use in risk theory, namely phase-type distributions. Phase-type distributions have the important advantage of being suitable for approximating most of other distributions as well as being mathematically tractable.

Risk and distributional inequality.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1984
Abstract : A distributional model of risk is described in which it is hypothesized that people's judgments of risk are similar to the kinds of judgments made in welfare economics concerning inequality of income distributions. The role played by the Lorenz curve in analyzing inequality is described and it is shown how Lorenz curves can be used to ...

Distributing Risks and Responsibilities

Social Studies of Science, 2007
Coordinated responses to flooding in the New Orleans area date back to at least the early 18 century when the Company of the Indies built a mile long bulwark on a natural levee. Since that early project, corporations, NGOs, and local, state, and federal governments have taken numerous steps to limit the risk of flooding including building extensive ...
