The Research of Benefit on E-process with Cash management ¡V An Example of manufacturing industry

Liu, Yen-Chieh 16 February 2011 (has links)
Facing to the competition of global economic market,an enterprise have to get more chance of transaction with customers for the expansion in market,with the more frequent business,the more rich cash transaction will happen between company and company.And an enterprise surely need to have a good cash management system to help the people control the fund flow inside the enterprise,and people can dispatch the fund.We can rapidly and conveniently get the information about transaction by the E-Process and it will help the people to complete their job immediately. However,follow the change in our environment,or the replacement on government policy and the improvement on company strategy,the E-Process might be some flaw now and it create many trouble while a staff is doing jobs.In my research,there is a object to visit all the related people inside or outside the enterprise,in this way,I will collect the demand and suggestion about the cash process now,and find out a plan to solute the questions. The Accounts Payable is a important item in the company,it will appear when business action get into customer or supplier,also employee can get into it.For rapidly handling the Accounts Payable,accountants usually have their own opinion when using the E-Process.By recording the demand from accountants and to produce functions with process reengineering,and finally create a financial E-Process platform by QFD, this can be a reference to the top manager.

The Temporary Nature of Health: The Humoral Body in Early Modern Drama

Headley, Cynthia Marie January 2012 (has links)
The Temporary Nature of Health: The Humoral Body in Early Modern Drama explores the ways in which drama, political theory, and travel accounts deploy metaphors and practices generated by the humoral body to provide an account for living in a postlapsarian world. This project's interdisciplinary approach builds on the work of Gail Paster and Valerie Traub and analyzes the ways in which understandings of the body both inflect and are inflected by culture. Chapter one, "'Letting' Blood: The Impossibility of Social Health and Stability in Shakespeare and Cary," focuses on metonyms and metaphors of blood, using both Richard II and Elizabeth Cary's The Tragedy of Mariam. Both plays challenge the notion that blood as bloodline metonymically means character fitness and the ability to rule. Chapter two, "The Failure of Authority: Medical Practitioners and Heads of State in The Winter's Tale, All's Well that Ends Well, and Measure for Measure," argues that these plays' central characters fail as healers in their attempts to find balance and stability for others, usually through the comedic conventional ending of marriage. Chapter three, "Pastoral's Temporary Healing: Elizabethan-Jacobean Comedies, Tragicomedies, and Travel Accounts," uses pastoral dramas such as Mary Wroth's Love's Victorie, John Fletcher's The Faithful Shepherdess, and Shakespeare's As You Like It, as well as travel accounts such as Walter Ralegh's A Discourse Concerning Western Planting. This chapter examines the relationship among pastoral drama, humoral understanding of the body, and travel accounts.

Understanding and Defending Against Malicious Identities in Online Social Networks

Cao, Qiang January 2014 (has links)
<p>Serving more than one billion users around the world, today's online </p><p>social networks (OSNs) pervade our everyday life and change the way people </p><p>connect and communicate with each other. However, the open nature of </p><p>OSNs attracts a constant interest in attacking and exploiting them. </p><p>In particular, they are vulnerable to various attacks launched through </p><p>malicious accounts, including fake accounts and compromised real user </p><p>accounts. In those attacks, malicious accounts are used to send out </p><p>spam, spread malware, distort online voting, etc.</p><p>In this dissertation, we present practical systems that we have designed </p><p>and built to help OSNs effectively throttle malicious accounts. The overarching </p><p>contribution of this dissertation is the approaches that leverage the fundamental </p><p>weaknesses of attackers to defeat them. We have explored defense schemes along </p><p>two dimensions of an attacker's weaknesses: limited social relationships </p><p>and strict economic constraints.</p><p>The first part of this dissertation focuses on how to leverage social </p><p>relationship constraints to detect fake accounts. We present SybilRank, a novel </p><p>social-graph-based detection scheme that can scale up to OSNs with billions of </p><p>users. SybilRank is based on the observation that the social connections between </p><p>fake accounts and real users, called attack edges, are limited. It formulates </p><p>the detection as scalable user ranking according to the landing probability of </p><p>early-terminated random walks on the social graph. SybilRank generates an informative </p><p>user-ranked list with a substantial fraction of fake accounts at the bottom, </p><p>and bounds the number of fake accounts that are ranked higher than legitimate </p><p>users to O(log n) per attack edge, where n is the total number of users. We have </p><p>demonstrated the scalability of SybilRank via a prototype on Hadoop MapReduce, </p><p>and its effectiveness in the real world through a live deployment at Tuenti, </p><p>the largest OSN in Spain.</p><p>The second part of this dissertation focuses on how to exploit an attacker's </p><p>economic constraints to uncover malicious accounts. We present SynchroTrap, a system </p><p>that uncovers large groups of active malicious accounts, including both fake </p><p>accounts and compromised accounts, by detecting their loosely synchronized actions.</p><p>The design of SynchroTrap is based on the observation that malicious accounts usually </p><p>perform loosely synchronized actions to accomplish an attack mission, due to </p><p>limited budgets, specific mission goals, etc. SynchroTrap transforms the detection </p><p>into a scalable clustering algorithm. It uncovers large groups of accounts </p><p>that act similarly at around the same time for a sustained period of time. To </p><p>handle the enormous volume of user action data in large OSNs, we designed SynchroTrap</p><p>as an incremental processing system that processes small data chunks on a daily </p><p>basis but aggregates the computational results over the continuous data stream. </p><p>We implemented SynchroTrap on Hadoop and Giraph, and we deployed it on Facebook </p><p>and Instagram. This deployment has resulted in the unveiling of millions of malicious </p><p>accounts and thousands of large attack campaigns per month.</p> / Dissertation
