  • LPS-Public Quick Start Guide
    LPS-Public Quick Start Guide This guide is for the beginner user to create and use a Lightweight Portable Security – Public Edition (LPS- Public) CD to more securely browse the Internet and access CAC-enabled websites. For more information on LPS-Public, see http://www.spi.dod.mil/lipose.htm. LPS-Public focuses on safe browsing; it supports thumb drives but intentionally lacks drivers (support) for hard drives and printers. 1. Create a bootable CD from the ISO image (*.iso, an image file of an optical disc). a) Download and save the LPS-Public ISO image from http://www.spi.dod.mil/lipose.htm. b) Burn the image to a blank CD using ISO software (e.g., UltraISO, ISO Maker, K3b, CDBurnerXP, Easy CD Creator, ImgBurn, CDBurn, Nero Burning ROM, Roxio Creator, or one of many others but ATSPI endorses none). This is not the same as just saving the file to a CD. c) Write the LPS version number on the CD. 2. Connect your PC or Intel-based Mac to a wired Ethernet network with DHCP service, or have a wireless (WiFi) or broadband cellular network available. 3. Connect a USB CCID-compliant CAC reader to your PC. Many built-in readers are not supported. Insert your CAC into the reader. If you have an old or non-CCID reader, you may need new firmware from the OEM. LPS contains a Firmware Updating utility that you should run. 4. Insert the LPS-Public CD into the CD drive. Restart your computer. It may take a few minutes to boot LPS.

  • Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset
    Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset Tian-Tsong Ng, Shih-Fu Chang, Jessie Hsu, Martin Pepeljugoski¤ fttng,sfchang,[email protected], [email protected] Department of Electrical Engineering Columbia University ADVENT Technical Report #205-2004-5 Feb 2005 Abstract Passive-blind image authentication is a new area of research. A suitable dataset for experimentation and comparison of new techniques is important for the progress of the new research area. In response to the need for a new dataset, the Columbia Photographic Images and Photorealistic Computer Graphics Dataset is made open for the passive-blind image authentication research community. The dataset is composed of four component image sets, i.e., the Photorealistic Com- puter Graphics Set, the Personal Photographic Image Set, the Google Image Set, and the Recaptured Computer Graphics Set. This dataset, available from http://www.ee.columbia.edu/trustfoto, will be for those who work on the photographic images versus photorealistic com- puter graphics classi¯cation problem, which is a subproblem of the passive-blind image authentication research. In this report, we de- scribe the design and the implementation of the dataset. The report will also serve as a user guide for the dataset. 1 Introduction Digital watermarking [1] has been an active area of research since a decade ago. Various fragile [2, 3, 4, 5] or semi-fragile watermarking algorithms [6, 7, 8, 9] has been proposed for the image content authentication and the detection of image tampering. In addition, authentication signature [10, ¤This work was done when Martin spent his summer in our research group 1 11, 12, 13] has also been proposed as an alternative image authentication technique.

  • Java Ide's One-On-One*
    DR. J VS. THE BIRD: JAVA IDE'S ONE-ON-ONE* Michael Olan Computer Science and Information Systems Richard Stockton College Pomona, NJ 08240 609-652-4587 [email protected] ABSTRACT An important decision facing instructors of introductory programming courses is the choice of supporting software development tools. Usually this involves selecting an integrated development environment (IDE). BlueJ has received widespread adoption for first year courses that use the Java programming language; however, DrJava is emerging as an alternative. This paper features a comparison of the pedagogical approaches used by BlueJ and DrJava as a guideline for selecting the tool best suited to the teaching style used in the introductory course. 1. INTRODUCTION The choice was simple when text editors and the command line were the only tools for developing programs. That changed with the introduction of integrated development environments (IDE's), and campuses nationwide adopted Borland's Turbo Pascal. Languages also have changed. Pascal was designed as a teaching language, but now academic programs use advanced languages designed for professional software engineers. Making these complex languages accessible to beginning students requires a careful selection of the development environment. This discussion will only include Java, currently the dominant language choice for introductory courses. Let us first consider several levels of tool support in the introductory course sequence: 1) Minimal: A text editor and the command line. 2) Simple IDE: Just the basics, no bells and whistles. 3) Professional IDE: Powerful and feature filled. ___________________________________________ * Copyright © 2004 by the Consortium for Computing Sciences in Colleges.
