GLMPC: An integrated system for glider command and control

Pipeline accidents are usually caused through failures, vandalizations, or other environmental accidents like hurricanes, earthquakes and floods. This paper describes the design of an integrated system for real time monitoring and management of pipeline accidents in land and sea environment. This study focuses on oil, gas and other hazardous spill accidents caused by the pipeline transportation system. Multisensor applications for pipeline failures detection and hazard monitoring can be conducted with appropriate models in GIS and internet based communication infrastructure to provide a solution for real time pipeline accidents contingency planning and emergency response. The system architecture includes several models in GIS environment which support disaster management and decision making through provision of various thematic maps, and a module called command and control which is designed for managing and coordinating pipeline accidents response. Command and control system coordinates all tasks related to the accident emergency response through management and administration office. The structure also includes web based accident data dissemination scheme through internet portal which act as a communication system to connect accident managers in administration office with accident relief and operators on the ground. These new approaches in geomatics applications for pipeline accident emergency response can be implemented in other accidental hazards monitoring and management in the environment.

In this paper we propose a centralized web firewall system for web application security which will provide a new type of synchronized system, which has the ability to  detect  and prevent a variety of web application attacks for a wide range of hosts at the same time , using an centralized command and control system, the attacked client then sends the information to a centralized command and control server which will distribute the attack information to all of the integrated clients connected to it. The distributed information contains all of the attack information including the type of attack, the IP address of the attacker, and the time of attack. The process of receiving the attacker's information and distributing it through the centralized web firewall is done automatically and immediately at the time of the attack. And all of the receiving clients will take actions against the threat depending on the distributed information such as banning the IP address of the attacker. The main process aims to protect multiple clients from any possible attack from the same attacker or the same type of attack. The system has been implemented to protect a real web application. Experiments showed that the attacks has been successfully prevented on multiple hosts at the time. This paper came to provide a centralized web firewall system that connect different web firewalls in order to detect and prevent different types of web attacks and work as a fully integrated system with the different clients.
