Identifying the impact scope and scale is critical for software supply chain vulnerability assessment. However, existing studies face substantial limitations. First, prior studies either work at coarse package-level granularity, producing…
In this paper, we introduce the Context-Aware Video Instance Segmentation (CAVIS), a novel framework designed to enhance instance association by integrating contextual information adjacent to each object. To efficiently extract and leverage…
RAG systems enhance LLMs by incorporating external knowledge, which is crucial for domains that demand factual accuracy and up-to-date information. However, evaluating the multifaceted quality of RAG outputs, spanning aspects such as…
Despite significant reliability efforts, large-scale cloud services inevitably experience production incidents that can significantly impact service availability and customer's satisfaction. Worse, in many cases one incident can lead to…
Abstract The cloud computing is a key computing approach adopted by many organizations in order to share resources. It provides Everything As-A-Service (XaaS). Software-As-A-Service is an important resource on the cloud computing…
Using image context is an effective approach for improving object detection. Previously proposed methods used contextual cues that rely on semantic or spatial information. In this work, we explore a different kind of contextual information:…
The rise of context-aware IoT applications has increased the demand for timely and accurate context information. Context is derived by aggregating and inferring from dynamic IoT data, making it highly volatile and posing challenges in…
Cloud platforms are increasingly being used to run HPC workloads. Major cloud providers offer a wide variety of virtual machine (VM) types, enabling users to find the optimal balance between performance and cost. However, this extensive…
Energy consumption of IoT devices is a very important issue. For this reason, many techniques have been developed to allow IoT nodes to be aware of the amount of available energy. When energy is missing, the device halts and saves its…
Managing cloud services is a fundamental challenge in todays virtualized environments. These challenges equally face both providers and consumers of cloud services. The issue becomes even more challenging in virtualized environments that…
Software vulnerability detection has emerged as a significant concern in the field of software security recently, capturing the attention of numerous researchers and developers. Most previous approaches focus on coarse-grained vulnerability…
Cross-Domain Sequential Recommendation (CDSR) aims to en-hance recommendation quality by transferring knowledge across domains, offering effective solutions to data sparsity and cold-start issues. However, existing methods face three major…
Context plays a crucial role in visual recognition as it provides complementary clues for different learning tasks including image classification and annotation. As the performances of these tasks are currently reaching a plateau, any extra…
In the highly interconnected digital landscape of today, safeguarding complex infrastructures against cyber threats has become increasingly challenging due to the exponential growth in the number and complexity of vulnerabilities. Resource…
Cloud application services are distributed in nature and have components across the stack working together to deliver the experience to end users. The wide adoption of microservice architecture exacerbates failure management due to…
Language models (LMs) show promise for vulnerability detection but struggle with long, real-world code due to sparse and uncertain vulnerability locations. These issues, exacerbated by token limits, often cause models to miss…
Software vulnerabilities have been continually disclosed and documented. An important practice in documenting vulnerabilities is to describe the key vulnerability aspects, such as vulnerability type, root cause, affected product, impact,…
In the framework of Network Function Virtualization (NFV), the reliability of Service Function Chain (SFC), -- an end-to-end service is presented by a chain of virtual network functions (VNFs), is a complex function of placement,…
Web Services (WS) have become one the most used technologies nowadays in software systems. Among the challenges when integrating WS in a given system, requirements-driven selection occupies a prominent place. A comprehensive selection…
Web servers are a popular target for adversaries as they are publicly accessible and often vulnerable to compromise. Compromises can go unnoticed for months, if not years, and recovery often involves a complete system rebuild. In this…
