This book offers a structured overview and a comprehensive guide to the emerging field of Autonomous Intelligent Cyber Defense Agents (AICA). The book discusses the current technical issues in autonomous cyber defense and offers information on practical design approaches. The material is presented in a way that is accessible to non-specialists, with tutorial information provided in the initial chapters and as needed throughout the book. The re...

Cutting-edge computing helps military planners create original organizational structures able to adapt to changing strategies and tactics. This book contains computational techniques that provide practical solutions for organizing and commanding military operations, gathering intelligence, deploying antiterrorism measures and securing information.

This book introduces fundamental concepts of cyber resilience, drawing expertise from academia, industry, and government.  Resilience is defined as the ability to recover from or easily adjust to shocks and stresses. Unlike the concept of security  - which is often and incorrectly conflated with resilience -- resilience refers to the system's ability to recover or regenerate its performance after an unexpected impact produces a degradation in ...

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental security of Industrial Control Systems (ICSs), including Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems and touching on cyber-physical systems in general. Careful attention is given to providing the reader with clear and comprehensive background and reference material for each topic pertinent to ICS security. This book offers answers to such questions as: Which specific o...

This dissertation proposes a computational technique for automated "invention" of conceptual schemes of thermal systems. The input provided to the automated problem solver is a description of the streams entering and leaving the system. The output is a network of elementary processes: compression, expansion, heating, cooling, and chemical processes. The problem solver seeks a network that is feasible, and offers an optimal (or at least favorab...

This book is the first publication to give a comprehensive, structured treatment to the important topic of situational awareness in cyber defense. It presents the subject in a logical, consistent, continuous discourse, covering key topics such as formation of cyber situational awareness, visualization and human factors, automated learning and inference, use of ontologies and metrics, predicting and assessing impact of cyber attacks, and achiev...

International interventions are among the most controversial and complex of human endeavors. In today's smaller, flatter, and interdependent world, interventions of all sorts - economic sanctions or aid, natural-disaster relief, various diplomatic or civil-military engagements—are likely to persist and to become yet more complex and difficult. The last decade has seen an explosive growth of research on methods and tools, particularly computat...

Featuring approaches that draw from disciplines such as artificial intelligence and cognitive modeling, Adversarial Reasoning: Computational Approaches to Reading the Opponent's Mind describes technologies and applications that address a broad range of practical problems, including military planning and command, military and foreign intelligence, antiterrorism and domestic security, as well as simulation and training systems. The authors prese...

Explores the expanding realm of net-centric warfare and the challenges methods of war pose for military commanders, from the platoon leader to senior leadership at the highest levels. This book represents the culmination of a research programme conducted by the US Military and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

Within merely a few decades after the Russian Revolution, the mighty Russian Jewish community, world-largest and millennium-old, turned into a faint shadow of itself. Never before had world Jewry experienced such a rapid, catastrophic collapse of such an immense and long-established community. Never before had so many young Jews rushed so eagerly after false prophets-in this case Communist ideologues
