Abstract: Geant4 is a software toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter. It is used by a large number of experiments and projects in a variety of application domains, including high energy physics, astrophysics and space science, medical physics and radiation protection. Its functionality and modeling capabilities continue to be extended, while its performance is enhanced. An overview of recent developments in diverse areas of the toolkit is presented. These include performance optimization for complex setups; improvements for the propagation in fields; new options for event biasing; and additions and improvements in geometry, physics processes and interactive capabilities

TL;DR: This edition includes recent research results pertaining to the diagnosis of discrete event systems, decentralized supervisory control, and interval-based timed automata and hybrid automata models.
Abstract: Introduction to Discrete Event Systems is a comprehensive introduction to the field of discrete event systems, offering a breadth of coverage that makes the material accessible to readers of varied backgrounds. The book emphasizes a unified modeling framework that transcends specific application areas, linking the following topics in a coherent manner: language and automata theory, supervisory control, Petri net theory, Markov chains and queuing theory, discrete-event simulation, and concurrent estimation techniques. This edition includes recent research results pertaining to the diagnosis of discrete event systems, decentralized supervisory control, and interval-based timed automata and hybrid automata models.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a rigorous mathematical foundation for modeling and simulation and provide a comprehensive framework for integrating the various simulation approaches employed in practice, including cellular automata, chaotic systems, hierarchical block diagrams, and Petri nets.
Abstract: From the Publisher: Although twenty-five years have passed since the first edition of this classical text, the world has seen many advances in modeling and simulation, the need for a widely accepted framework and theoretical foundation is even more necessary today. Methods of modeling and simulation are fragmented across disciplines making it difficult to re-use ideas from other disciplines and work collaboratively in multidisciplinary teams. Model building and simulation has been made easier and faster by riding piggyback on advances in software and hardware. However, difficult and fundamental issues such as model credibility and interoperation have received less attention. These issues are now front and center under the impetus of the High Level Architecture (HLA) standard mandated by the U.S. DoD for all contractors and agencies. This book concentrates on integrating the continuous and discrete paradigms for modeling and simulation. A second major theme is that of distributed simulation and its potential to support the co-existence of multiple formalisms in multiple model components. Prominent throughout are the fundamental concepts of modular and hierarchical model composition. This edition presents a rigorous mathematical foundation for modeling and simulation. Also, it now provides a comprehensive framework for integrating the various simulation approaches employed in practice. Including such popular modeling methods as cellular automata, chaotic systems, hierarchical block diagrams, and Petri nets. A unifying concept, called the DEVS Bus, enables models, as expressed in their native formalisms, to be transparently mapped into the Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS). The book shows how to construct computationally efficient, object-oriented simulations of DEVS models on parallel and distributed environments. If you are doing integrative simulations, whether or not they are HLA compliant, this is the only book available to provide the foundation to understand, simplify and successfully accomplish your task.

TL;DR: Bro as mentioned in this paper is a stand-alone system for detecting network intruders in real-time by passively monitoring a network link over which the intruder's traffic transits, which emphasizes high-speed (FDDI-rate) monitoring, realtime notification, clear separation between mechanism and policy and extensibility.
Abstract: We describe Bro, a stand-alone system for detecting network intruders in real-time by passively monitoring a network link over which the intruder's traffic transits. We give an overview of the system's design, which emphasizes high-speed (FDDI-rate) monitoring, real-time notification, clear separation between mechanism and policy, and extensibility. To achieve these ends, Bro is divided into an "event engine" that reduces a kernel-filtered network traffic stream into a series of higher-level events, and a "policy script interpreter" that interprets event handlers written in a specialized language used to express a site's security policy. Event handlers can update state information, synthesize new events, record information to disk, and generate real-time notifications via syslog. We also discuss a number of attacks that attempt to subvert passive monitoring systems and defenses against these, and give particulars of how Bro analyzes the four applications integrated into it so far: Finger, FTP, Portmapper and Telnet. The system is publicly available in source code form.
