Evaluation criteria for information retrieval systems. by Julian Warner

“…An enhanced capacity for informed choice is advocated as an alternative principle for system evaluation and design. This broadly corresponds to: the exploratory capability discussed in recent information retrieval research; the value of discriminatory power in classification and indexing; Giambattista Vicos critique of the unproductivity of Aristotelian methods of categorisation as routes to new knowledge; and, most significantly, to ordinary discourse conceptions of the value of information retrieval systems.…”

Review of system architecture of omnidirectional media by Ying LUO, Li SONG, Rong XIE, Chuanfei LUO

“…With the development of virtual reality technology,the formulation and perfection of omnidirectional media system standard plays a more important role.In order to standardize the virtual reality system,it is of great value to study the system architecture of omnidirectional media.Firstly,the current development of virtual reality technology and the problems in practical application were reviewed.Secondly,the structure and development trend of the application framework of omnidirectional media were introduced.Then the application architectures of MPEG OMAF,Facebook and Google were introduced separately.Through the comparative analysis of several system architecture schemes,the development of omnidirectional multimedia was summarized and prospected.…”

Attacks on Telex Internet anticensorship system by Long-hai LI, Cheng-qiang HUANG, Wan-xing WANG, Jian-jun MU

“…As a typical router-redirecting based anticensorship system,Telex poses new challenges for Internet censors.To help common users evade Internet censorship,Telex employs network routers,rather than end-hosts,to relay network traffics to blocked destinations.The security of Telex from the censors' perspective is analyzed,and two kinds of active attacks aiming to break users' privacy are presented.The first is a kind of DoS attack,which exploits a security flaw of Telex handshake protocol.It can probabilistically identify the users who are using Telex,as well as break the availability of Telex.An improved handshake protocol to remedy the flaw is also proposed.The second is called TCP packets by-passing attack.Under that attacking scenario,censors make a small fraction of TCP packets from clients bypass the router and reach the cover site directly through asymmetric routing paths or IP tunnels,then determine whether a user is utiliz-ing Telex by observing the reaction of upstream traffic.The feasibility of bypassing attack has been testified by a series of experiments in a prototype environment.The bypassing attack is also applicable to other router-redirecting based anti-censorship systems.…”
