  • 802.21-MPA-IMS Architecture
    Publication . Rodrigues, Carlos Miguel de Jesus; Rabadão, Carlos; Pereira, António
    Mobility has become a keyword nowadays with the evolution of mobile devices market and proliferation of realtime services. IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a single, standardized service framework that supports voice, video, data and messaging services, but does not provide seamless mobility for packet based sessions. This paper purposes an IMS architecture with IEEE 802.21 and media-independent pre-authentication (MPA) integrated. IEEE 802.21 can enable this seamless mobility in IMS and, additionally, MPA provides a secure handover optimization scheme, reducing, as a consequence, handover latency. The main goal of this architecture is to provide seamless and secure handovers between different access technologies in an IMS-based environment.

  • Advanced technologies for shoe sole production
    Publication . Spahiu, Tatjana; Almeida, Henrique; Ascenso, Rita M. T.; Vitorino, Liliana; Marto, Anabela
    Advanced technologies for modelling and production are an important part in the whole process of product manufacturing. These advancements have changed the way of product development and play an important role in customization. In the footwear industry, as in any other industry, the use of these technologies is widely spread. Footwear comfort is one of the main selection criteria for purchase. Considering this fact, a case study of different steps for shoe designing according to individual foot shape will be presented. Taking into consideration the aesthetics of the sole and in a more sustainable view, through topological optimization reducing of material wastage for sole production will be presented. By means of the topological optimization in the shoe design process, sole optimization is realized. As a part of personalization, feet’s plantar pressure maps taken from 1 participant gave a better explanation of weight distribution of each foot. Following, sole personalization according the plantar pressure maps for each foot gives the possibility to obtain the best least material design according to the feet’s pressure while maintaining biomechanical performance.

  • Communication Protocol for Unmanned Vehicles : An Architectural Approach
    Publication . Ramos, João; Ribeiro, Roberto; Safadinho, David; Barroso, João; Pereira, Antonio
    The great potential of Unmanned Vehicles (UV) for services is supported by the evolution of drones and their flexible ability to help us performing dangerous, boring and difficult tasks. The common communication solutions e.g., radio, consider a pilot and a vehicle in the same location. Besides, the alternatives based on Ground Control Stations (GCS) are difficult to configure, which makes it difficult for a common user and a developer to use and/or implement new services for drones. This work proposes a solution with a new messaging protocol to overcome the previous problems, allowing controlling a UV in a remote location after a simple configuration. The implementation of this approach is based on a cloud platform, responsible for UV and user management, and on TCP/IP WebSockets for the user to control remotely located vehicles, anytime and anywhere. This research starts with the analysis of the prior work regarding UV communication technologies and the available GCS. Minding the identified problems, we designed an architecture that represents a cloud platform and multiple users and UVs in different networks. To prototype this architecture, we developed the user interface, the platform and the UV control module. The functional assessment considers a generic simplified and controlled scenario, focusing on the real-time control and video stream. The results confirmed the possibility to control a UV in a different location, in real-time, with an average response time of 25ms. This work provides valuable insights regarding the communication in the fields of anytime and anywhere device control and vehicle-based services.

  • A Conversational Agent for Promoting Physical Activity Among COPD Patients
    Publication . Rodrigues, Ricardo; Caceiro, Ruben; Brites, Marcelo; Flora, Sofia; Cruz, Joana; Silva, Fernando; Ribeiro, José
    Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world, affecting respiratory performance of many people, limiting the airflow and is not fully reversible. It is a clinical syndrome characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms, structural pulmonary abnormalities or impairment of lung function. In order to help people with this disease, we propose an innovative personalized mHealth coaching platform that will address patient preferences and contextual factors – the OnTRACK platform. This platform is composed of a mobile application for patients, a web platform for healthcare professionals – and a conversational agent (or chatbot), named “Hígia”, which acts as an alternative interface between patients and the platform. This conversational agent includes several of the main functionalities already available in OnTRACK’s smartphone app, complementing and extending it. It allows consulting prescription information in a multitude of ways, getting and setting all personal data, inserting physical activity measurements, and obtaining historical data on physical activity and prescriptions, among others. The evaluation of the conversational agent yielded encouraging results, with users reporting being happier, more motivated, dedicated and confident when interacting with the systems using their voice, while allowing the development team to identify topics for improvement.

  • Digital Forensic Artifacts of FIDO2 Passkeys in Windows 11
    Publication . Domingues, Patricio; Frade, Miguel; Negrão, Miguel
    FIDO2’s passkey aims to provide a passwordless authentication solution. It relies on two main protocols – WebAuthn and CTAP2 – for authentication in computer systems, relieving users from the burden of using and managing passwords. FIDO2’s passkey leverages asymmetric cryptography to create a unique public/private key pair for website authentication. While the public key is kept at the website/application, the private key is created and stored on the authentication device designated as the authenticator. The authenticator can be the computer itself – same-device signing –, or another device – cross-device signing –, such as an Android smartphone that connects to the computer through a short-range communication method (NFC, Bluetooth). Authentication is performed by the user unlocking the authenticator device. In this paper, we report on the digital forensic artifacts left on Windows 11 systems by registering and using passkeys to authenticate on websites. We show that digital artifacts are created in Windows Registry and Windows Event Log. These artifacts enable the precise dating and timing of passkey registration, as well as the usage and identification of the websites on which they have been activated and utilized. We also identify digital artifacts created when Android smartphones are registered and used as authenticators in a Windows system. This can prove useful in detecting the existence of smartphones linked to a given individual.

  • Digital Forensic Artifacts of the Cortana Device Search Cache on Windows 10 Desktop
    Publication . Domingues, Patrício; Frade, Miguel
    Microsoft Windows 10 Desktop edition has brought some new features and updated other ones that are of special interest to digital forensics analysis. The search box available on the taskbar, next to the Windows start button is one of these novelties. Although the primary usage of this search box is to act as an interface to the intelligent personal digital assistant Cortana, in this paper, we study the digital forensic artifacts of the search box on machines when Cortana is explicitly disabled. Specifically, we locate, characterize and analyze the content and dynamics of the JSON-based files that are periodically generated by the Cortana device search cache system. Forensically important data from these JSON files include the number of times each installed application has been run, the date of the last execution and the content of the custom jump list of the applications. Since these data are collected per user and saved in a resilient text format, they can help in digital forensics, mostly in assisting the validation of other sources of information.

  • Digitally Signed and Permission Restricted PDF Files
    Publication . Domingues, Patrício; Frade, Miguel
    The PDF format is the de-facto standard for many types of documents. Often a forensic digital investigation is faced with a significant volume of PDF files. It is thus important to filter PDF files, giving priority to files that have an high probability to carry important and meaningful data. In this paper, we focus on identifying potential important PDF files, selecting i) digitally signed files and ii) files that have special owner restrictions set, such as interdiction to assemble/separate pages. For this purpose, we present the python-based digiSign|protectedPDF module for the open source Autopsy forensic software. When run over a digital forensic data source, the module creates two lists: one holding the digitally signed files and, another one with files that have special restrictions in their usage. To study the occurrence of digitally signed and of permission-protected PDF and their importance for digital forensics, we analyzed a Windows 10 forensic image, finding that 2.81% of the PDF files were digitally signed and 3.75% were permission-protected. The study shows that digitally signed PDF files can harbor meaningful data for a digital forensic investigation.
