Multi Metrics Based Framework

by N.n.
Supervisor(s) Seraj Fayyad, Josef Noll
Due date 2017/11/05
Status Planned
Problem description: Internet of Things, People and Services (IoTPS) systems become increasingly popular in modern times. This popularity increases the importance of these systems`security. The reliable evaluation of the system`s security is considered as a crucial requirement for the enhancement of its security. One of the promising approaches, which evaluate system`s security is Multi Metrics (MM) approach. For the realization of MM approach, a core for a MM based framework was initiated. In his/her thesis, the student will investigated and apply a proposed extensions for the initiated core. The expected time to finalize the thesis is 6 month. During these months the student will gain good knowledge in IoT security and will gain experience in some development technologies, such as java script and java (J2EE).
Methods and Tools: The tools and methods in this thesis are based on
  • A set of scenario, describing the challenges
  • A list of requirements being extracted from the scenarios
  • A description and evaluation of technologies and tools being candidates for solutions
  • A functional architecture/description of the envisaged system
  • An implementation of the core concepts
  • A demonstration of the solution
  • An evaluation of the solution, including a critical review of the descisions taken earlier
  • Conclusions
  • References
Time schedule The envisaged time schedule is:
T0+0 starting month, T0+m get an overview about the recommended references and verify from having needed conceptional knowledge to startup working on the thesis.
T0+2 months: get familiar with the needed technologies necessary for the thesis (e.g. Java (J2EE) and Java script) and get familiar with the initiated framework.
T0+4: Establish the table of content (TOC) of the envisaged thesis. Each section shall contain 3-10 keywords describing the content of that section
T0+5: Provide a draft of section 2 (scenario) and 3 (technologies)
T0+6: Deliver the thesis and related functionalities.
Pre-Knowledge This thesis includes a reasonable amount of programming and IT security terminologies. Thus it is expected that the student has the basic knowledge in (java and java script) and IT security.

Red line

Your thesis should have a "red line", which is visible throughout the whole thesis. This means you should mention in the beginning of each chapter how the chapter contributes to the "goals of the thesis".

Use of scientific methods

A thesis follows a standard method:

  • describe the problem (problemstilling)
  • extract the challenges. These challenges should be measurable, e.g. method is too slow to be useful to voice handover.
  • Analyse technology with respect to challenges. Don't write & repeat "everything" from a certain technology, concentrate on those parts (e.g. protocols) which are of importance for your problem

References

  • Wikipedia is good to use to get an overview on what is happening. But there is not scientific verification of Wikipedia, thus you should use wikipedia only in the introduction of a chapter (if you use text from wikipedia). Use scientific literature for your thesis.
  • Scientific library is "at your hand", you can get there directly from UiO: [[How to get access to IEEE, Springer and other scientific literature -> Unik/UiOLibrary]]
  • I suggest that references to web pages, e.g. OASIS, W3C standards, are given in a footnote. Only if you find white papers or other .pdf documents on a web page then you refer to them in the reference section.

Evaluation of own work

Perform an evaluation of your own work. Revisit the challenges and discuss in how you fulfilled them. Provide alternative solution and discuss what should be done (or what could have been done).
