An Intelligent Broker for Context-Aware Systems
We describe Context Broker Architecture (CoBrA) – a new architecture for supporting context-aware systems in smart spaces. Our architecture explores the use of Semantic Web languages for defining and publishing a context ontology, for sharing information about a context and for reasoning over such information. Central to our architecture is a broker agent that maintains a shared model of the context for all computing entities in the space and enforces the privacy policies defined by the users and devices. We also describe the use of CoBrA in prototyping an intelligent meeting room.
This paper presents an agent specially designed for the prevention and detection of SQL injection at the database layer of an application. The agent incorporates a Case-based reasoning mechanism whose main characteristic involves a mixture of neural networks that carry out the task of filtering attacks. The agent had been tested and the results obtained are presented in this study.
