Adam Abrams REVIEW: "High Integrity Software", John Barnes Rob Slade Info on RISKS (comp.risks) Credit agencies sending our files abroad (via Dave Farber's IP) <Paul Saffo <[email protected]>> Fri, 07 Nov 2003 08:47:57 -0800 David Lazarus <[email protected]>, *San Francisco Chronicle*, 7 Nov 2003 [PGN-ed] sfgate.com/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2003/11/07/MNG4Q2SEAM1.DTL IP Archives at: http://www.interesting-people.org/archives/ interesting-people/ Two of the three major credit-reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, each holding detailed files on about 220 million U. S. consumers) are in the process of outsourcing sensitive operations abroad, and a third may follow suit shortly. Privacy advocates say the outsourcing of files that include Social Security numbers and complete credit histories could lead to a surge in identity theft because U.S. laws cannot be enforced overseas. For their part, the credit agencies say the trend is a necessary cost-cutting move in light of new legislation that would allow all consumers to obtain free copies of their credit reports. (TransUnion http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.01.html (2 of 21)2005-04-15 12:18:07 The Risks Digest Volume 23: Issue 1 states that would cost them as much as $350 million a year.) "The application of American law in a foreign country is difficult, if not impossible," said Sen. Dianne Feinstein. "Therefore, the more companies move overseas, the less American law can control the uses for which personal data is put. And this can only represent an increasing threat to the privacy of our citizens." Sen. Barbara Boxer said she would ensure that the matter was raised as senators and House members completed changes to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. "This information is very significant, and I intend to make sure that the conferees who are finalizing the bill are aware of the *Chronicle*'s investigation in hopes that they will protect Americans from such outrageous invasions of privacy," Boxer said. Crypto screwup: Sensitive Israeli missile test inadvertently broadcast <"Craig S.

Rebecca Mercuri's piece in RISKS-22.96). Last week's election in Fairfax County (Virginia) had a new risk I haven't seen covered before. They use WinVote machines, made by Advanced Voting Solutions of Frisco, Tex. These are essentially Windows laptops with a touchscreen and an 802.11 wireless net. (More about that in another RISKS article one of these days.) Seems that during the election, at least eight of the machines failed (out of almost 1000 in use county-wide), and were taken out of the polling places to a central repair facility, and then brought back after some form of "repair" was made (a reboot at the polling place did not solve the problem). The seals were broken, but the voting officials in the precincts were told to resume using them. The result was a lawsuit by the Republican party http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.01.html (4 of 21)2005-04-15 12:18:07 The Risks Digest Volume 23: Issue 1 seeking to invalidate the votes from those machines. There aren't enough votes at stake that it would change any of the election results. Of course, the real problem is that without any sort of physical (paper) record, it's impossible to prove what really happened when the machines were being "repaired". In addition, the "hi tech" vote counting (which was supposed to occur by uploading the results from every precinct to a central computer over a dial-up line) overloaded the servers, and "More than half of precinct officials resorted to the old-fashioned telephone to call in their numbers or even drove the results to headquarters, elections officials said. A handful of precincts went back to paper ballots." The only thing that's surprising here is that the election officials were surprised. See http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1397-2003Nov5. html California Halts E-Vote Certification (Kim Zetter) <Monty Solomon <[email protected]>> Tue, 4 Nov 2003 19:16:59 -0500 Kim Zetter, Wired.Com, 3 Nov 2003 SACRAMENTO, California -- Uncertified software may have been installed on http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.01.html (5 of 21)2005-04-15 12:18:07 The Risks Digest Volume 23: Issue 1 electronic voting machines used in one California county, according to the secretary of state's office. Marc Carrel, assistant secretary of state for policy and planning, told attendees Thursday at a panel on voting systems that California was halting the certification process for new voting machines manufactured by Diebold Election Systems. The reason, Carrel said, was that his office had recently received "disconcerting information" that Diebold may have installed uncertified software on its touch- screen machines used in one county. He did not say which county was involved. However, Secretary of State spokesman Douglas Stone later told Wired News that the county in question is Alameda. ... http://www.wired.com/news/politics/0,1283,61068,00.html Touch screen voting -- like Web site maintenance? <William Nico <[email protected]>> Wed, 5 Nov 2003 09:02:54 -0800 (PST) The 4 Nov 2003 election in Pleasanton, CA had only a School Board choice on the ballot. However, the "Instructions", which comprised the opening page on the touch screen voting machine, were wholly focused in detail on the gubernatorial recall election of 7 Oct 2003! Irish Labour Party urges suspension of e-voting until flaws http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.01.html (6 of 21)2005-04-15 12:18:07 The Risks Digest Volume 23: Issue 1 addressed <"Patrick O'Beirne" <[email protected]>> Mon, 03 Nov 2003 19:39:55 +0000 http://www.labour.ie/press/detail.tmpl?SKU=20031103143251 Press Release Gilmore urges suspension of e-voting until flaws addressed Eamon Gilmore TD, Labour Spokesperson on Environment and Local Government Issued on Monday 03 November, 2003 The Labour Party has called for the suspension of plans to extend electronic voting until the e-voting system has been changed. The call was made today (Monday) by the Labour Party Spokesperson on Local Government and the Environment, Eamon Gilmore TD, at a Press Conference to launch a study of electronic voting system which was commissioned by the Labour Party. The report was prepared by two Labour Party members, Shane Hogan and Robert Cochran who are both experienced IT specialists. Deputy Gilmore said: "The report identifies a number of major flaws and deficiencies in the electronic voting system which the Government plans to extend to all areas of the country for the Local and European Elections next year. The major defects are:- * No integrated end-to-end test of the entire system has been conducted to date. The testing of the Integrated Election Software (IES) software was http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.01.html (7 of 21)2005-04-15 12:18:07 The Risks Digest Volume 23: Issue 1 carried out by the UK based Electoral Reform Society in 2002. However for this test the random mix feature of the IES was disabled. An integrated end-to-end test would generally be considered a key part of the implementation of any new technology. * Formal Methods were not used to prove the accuracy of the software. Formal Methods refer to a set of mathematically based techniques that are used in the development of safety-critical software such as airplane navigation or life support machines. The Department of the Environment has not made the actual source code publicly available but it is clear from the technology used and source code review that formal methods were not used and that therefore there are bugs in the software.

    EMULATING SIMULA IN TURBO PASCAL by Morton John Canty EMULATING SIMULA IN TURBO PASCAL M. J. Canty 1. lntroduction Although the computer language SIMULA /1,2/ is now over 20 years old it remains an excellent general purpose programming tool as well as a popular and powerfuf simulation language, the purpose for which it was originally developed. SIMULA is an extension of ALGOL 60, which it contains as a true subset, and its advanced concepts have served as a model for modern object-oriented languages such as SMALLTALK. The properties which make SIMULA especially suitable for simulation tasks are 1. a hierarchic cfass concept with inheritance, 2. sophisticated list handfing facilities and 3. concurrent programming capability. Of these three, the most essential property to allow for programming of discrete time simulation tasks is the third one, concurrent programming. By this is meant the ability to sustain parallel autonomous entities (called processes or co-routines) in memory. Allowing an arbitrary number of such processes to interact with each other along a time axis forms the basis of SIMULA's model for discrete time simulation. Although virtually all major programming languages have been implemented in one form or another on personal computers, SIMULA is a notable exception. Perhaps the main reason for this is that, while enjoying great popularity in Europe, SIMULA is not as well known on the North American continent. Pascal belongs to the same Afgol famify as SIMULA, and the dialect Turbo Pascal of the firm Borland Interna­ tional has become one bf the most wide spread high-levef languages for MS-DOS personal computers.

  • A Domain-Specific Embedded Language for Probabilistic
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Steven Kollmansberger for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science presented on December 12, 2005. Title: A Domain-Specific Embedded Language for Probabilistic Programming Abstract approved: Martin Erwig Functional programming is concerned with referential transparency, that is, given a certain function and its parameter, that the result will always be the same. However, it seems that this is violated in applications involving uncertainty, such as rolling a dice. This thesis defines the background of probabilistic programming and domain-specific languages, and builds on these ideas to construct a domain- specific embedded language (DSEL) for probabilistic programming in a purely functional language. This DSEL is then applied in a real-world setting to develop an application in use by the Center for Gene Research at Oregon State University. The process and results of this development are discussed. c Copyright by Steven Kollmansberger December 12, 2005 All Rights Reserved A Domain-Specific Embedded Language for Probabilistic Programming by Steven Kollmansberger A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Presented December 12, 2005 Commencement June 2006 Master of Science thesis of Steven Kollmansberger presented on December 12, 2005 APPROVED: Major Professor, representing Computer Science Director of the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Dean of the Graduate School I understand that my thesis will become part of the permanent collection of Ore- gon State University libraries.

(a) The remainder function, which we shall write here as % (some languages use rem or remainder), is defined by the integer equation a = (a / b) * b + a % b. The modulo function, which we shall write here as mod (some languages use modulo) is defined by the properties 1. a mod b is an integer between b and 0 not equal to b, and 2. there exists an integer n such that a = n * b + a mod b. When both a and b are non-negative, it can be shown that a % b = a mod b. But when either (or both) of a and b are negative these definitions can produce different results. For example, –10 % 3 = –1, since – 10 / 3 = –3 and –3 * 3 – 1 = –10.
