Guessing Attack

Tracking of computer network system attacks is a proactive measure to protect against attacks on data, that are basically encrypted for confidential security reasons, while in transit on the computer information channel. Cyber security threat continues to increase in direct proportion to the rate at which internet based services are deployed. In this systematic review, 53 research papers from reputable publishers were downloaded out of which 41 papers that are closely related to tracking of malicious attackers on encrypted data online were review under the consideration of attacks on encrypted data, and tracking malicious attacks; with respect to proposed technique, problem addressed, comparison to existing methodology, parameters used, major findings and then limitations and future knowledge. The authors then deduce the classification of four varying types of attacks (Keyword Guessing Attack, Selective opening attacks, Leakage-Abuse Attacks, and Key Reinstallation Attacks) from the review, to narrow down research into the future countermeasures for these attacks. 11 research papers actual discuss countermeasures for these classification types, with Keyword Guessing Attack being the focus of 6 research work, Selective Opening Attacks have 3 papers trying to solve vulnerabilities permitting such attacks, 2 papers aimed research solutions at Leakage-Abuse Attacks, and Key Reinstallation Attacks, has mention but none of the papers reviewed proffer mitigation techniques. The remaining 30 papers concentrated discussions on general attacks on encrypted data. Inclining future research attention to the four kinds of attacks against encrypted data will improve attack detection contrary to the commonly post-mortem approach.

Recommendation systems have emerged as a response to overload in terms of increased amounts of information online, which has become a problem for users regarding the time spent on their search and the amount of information retrieved by it. In the field of recommendation systems in education, the relevance of recommended educational resources will improve the student’s learning process, and hence the importance of being able to suitably and reliably ensure relevant, useful information. The purpose of this systematic review is to analyze the work undertaken on recommendation systems that support educational practices with a view to acquiring information related to the type of education and areas dealt with, the developmental approach used, and the elements recommended, as well as being able to detect any gaps in this area for future research work. A systematic review was carried out that included 98 articles from a total of 2937 found in main databases (IEEE, ACM, Scopus and WoS), about which it was able to be established that most are geared towards recommending educational resources for users of formal education, in which the main approaches used in recommendation systems are the collaborative approach, the content-based approach, and the hybrid approach, with a tendency to use machine learning in the last two years. Finally, possible future areas of research and development in this field are presented.

Ontologies, as semantic knowledge representation, have a crucial role in various information systems. The main pitfall of manually building ontologies is effort and time-consuming. Ontology learning is a key solution. Learning Non-Taxonomic Relationships of Ontologies (LNTRO) is the process of automatic/semi-automatic extraction of all possible relationships between concepts in a specific domain, except the hierarchal relations. Most of the research works focused on the extraction of concepts and taxonomic relations in the ontology learning process. This article presents the results of a systematic review of the state-of-the-art approaches for LNTRO. Sixteen approaches have been described and qualitatively analyzed. The solutions they provide are discussed along with their respective positive and negative aspects. The goal is to provide researchers in this area a comprehensive understanding of the drawbacks of the existing work, thereby encouraging further improvement of the research work in this area. Furthermore, this article proposes a set of recommendations for future research.

Purpose As a frequently observed business phenomenon, the use of product scarcity to improve a product’s market performance has received increasing attention from both academics and practitioners. The resulting literature has covered a wide variety of issues based on various theories, using different research methods, in a diverse range of settings. However, this diversity also makes it difficult to grasp the core themes and findings, and to see the outstanding knowledge gaps. This paper aims to review previous studies on the use of product scarcity in marketing and identifies new directions for future research. Design/methodology/approach A systematic review was conducted to identify and analyse 66 research papers published in business and management journals between 1970 and 2017. Findings The authors examined the underlying theories of scarcity-based marketing, and developed a conceptual framework that describes the key factors of product scarcity and how they influence both consumers and the market. They also highlighted some key achievements in modelling the processes involved in using product scarcity in marketing. Originality/value This analysis of the identified papers suggests that there are substantial gaps in our knowledge of this field, which opens up new paths for future research. For future research, the authors identified three directions aimed at: addressing the practical needs of firms in understanding product scarcity; guiding the implementation of scarcity-based strategies; and measuring, monitoring and predicting the level of product scarcity and its impacts during implementation.

Abstract BACKGROUND Many transgender individuals choose to undergo gender-affirming hormone treatment (GAHT) and/or sex reassignment surgery (SRS) to alleviate the distress that is associated with gender dysphoria. Although these treatment options often succeed in alleviating such symptoms, they can also negatively impact future reproductive potential. OBJECTIVE AND RATIONALE The purpose of this systematic review was to synthesize the available psychosocial and medical literature on fertility preservation (FP) for transgender adolescents and young adults (TAYAs), to identify gaps in the current research and provide suggestions for future research directions. SEARCH METHODS A systematic review of English peer-reviewed papers published from 2001 onwards, using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines, was conducted. Four journal databases (Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed Medline, Ovid Embase and Ovid PsychINFO) were used to identify all relevant studies exploring psychosocial or medical aspects of FP in TAYAs. The search strategy used a combination of subject headings and generic terms related to the study topic and population. Bibliographies of the selected articles were also hand searched and cross-checked to ensure comprehensive coverage. All selected papers were independently reviewed by the co-authors. Characteristics of the studies, objectives and key findings were extracted, and a systematic review was conducted. OUTCOMES Included in the study were 19 psychosocial-based research papers and 21 medical-based research papers that explore fertility-related aspects specific for this population. Key psychosocial themes included the desire to have children for TAYAs; FP discussions, counselling and referrals provided by healthcare providers (HCPs); FP utilization; the attitudes, knowledge and beliefs of TAYAs, HCPs and the parents/guardians of TAYAs; and barriers to accessing FP. Key medical themes included fertility-related effects of GAHT, FP options and outcomes. From a synthesis of the literature, we conclude that there are many barriers preventing TAYAs from pursuing FP, including a lack of awareness of FP options, high costs, invasiveness of the available procedures and the potential psychological impact of the FP process. The available medical data on the reproductive effects of GAHT are diverse, and while detrimental effects are anticipated, the extent to which these effects are reversible is unknown. WIDER IMPLICATIONS FP counselling should begin as early as possible as a standard of care before GAHT to allow time for informed decisions. The current lack of high-quality medical data specific to FP counselling practice for this population means there is a reliance on expert opinion and extrapolation from studies in the cisgender population. Future research should include large-scale cohort studies (preferably multi-centered), longitudinal studies of TAYAs across the FP process, qualitative studies of the parents/guardians of TAYAs and studies evaluating the effectiveness of different strategies to improve the attitudes, knowledge and beliefs of HCPs.

Sri Lanka is one of the global biodiversity hotspots that contain a large variety of fauna and flora. But nowadays Sri Lankan wildlife has faced many issues because of poor management and policies to protect wildlife. The lack of technical and research support leads many researchers to retreat to select wildlife as their domain of study. This study demonstrates a novel approach to data mining to find hidden keywords and automated labeling for past research work in this area. Then use those results to predict the trending topics of researches in the field of biodiversity. To model topics and extract the main keywords, the authors used the latent dirichlet allocation (LDA) algorithms. Using the topic modeling performance, an ontology model was also developed to describe the relationships between each keyword. They classified the research papers using the artificial neural network (ANN) using ontology instances to predict the future gaps for wildlife research papers. The automatic classification and labeling will lead many researchers to find their desired research papers accurately and quickly.
