This paper presents a network security laboratory project for teaching network traffic anomaly detection methods to electrical engineering students. The project design follows a research-oriented teaching principle, enabling students to make their own discoveries in real network traffic, using data captured from a large IP darkspace monitor…

Many universities have striven to provide their students, parents, faculty, staff, and alumni with robust, useful, and informative Web sites. Villanova University (Villanova, Pennsylvania) has spent the last 12 months overhauling its static Web site to a dynamic and individualized Web system. At the outset, the term "portal" was adopted by the…

Discusses experiences of Schlumberger IT Sourcing (Austin, Texas) in designing and deploying knowledge management (KM) systems and outlines the empathic design approach. The new "market" approach in Schlumberger which leads to the simplification of intranet systems and interfaces, creation of a new classification system, and better…

This paper proposes a user-centered framework for intranet design that is based on an understanding of people, their typical problems, information behaviors, and situated contexts. It is argued that by adopting such an approach, intranets can be designed which facilitate organizational information access and use. The first section of the paper…

Proposes a user-centered framework for intranet design based on an understanding of people, their typical problems, information behaviors, and situated contexts. Argues that by adopting such an approach, intranets can be designed which facilitate organizational information access and use. (Author/AEF)

This paper explores the viability of a new approach to intranet design, one that is based on an understanding of the organizational information environment and user information behavior. The approach was used by 11 project teams of graduate students to develop intranet designs for local organizations. The workbooks used by the project teams were…
