My Research page contains Master thesis, Published paper and other my main research interests. Evolution of security through GSM to 3G network: An architectural view. (research report) Authored by: Zeeshan Ali Shah in 2006 for KTH _________________________________________________________________________ IT Security Risk Management Framework based on COBIT, NIST and OCTAVE .
Currently i am doing research to architect the IT Security Risk Management Framework based on COBIT, OCTAVE and most importantly NIST Risk framework. Will be released in end of November 08. _________________________________________________________________________  Information Delegation Service : which will enable to solve the delegation of electronic credentials in a trusted and secure way to other persons- I have won the Best Spring Board award from Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship for this idea. Currently this is in design phase and will be released end of this 2008. The information delegation will enable to delegate Passwords, documents, snaps, videos and basically any electronic content to others of your choice. _________________________________________________________________________ Authorization in Semantic Based Distributed Repository. 
FOI was created in 2001 through the merger of the then existing governmental agencies FOA (National Defence Research Establishment) and FFA (Aeronautical Research Institute). The agency has its head office in Kista in Stockholm. It also has operations in Linköping and Umeå and in Grindsjön outside Stockholm. I worked for FOI (Swedish Defense Research Agency) which operate under Swedish Military. In FOI i worked for last 1 Year and 1 month. There i worked to develop a Distributed Authorization engine based on grid computing. Lateron i presented this research onto my Master thesis at KTH under my Masters of Information Security Degree. You can find my thesis "Authorization in Semantic Based Distributed Repository" here (PDF). _________________________________________________________________________ 
(OMII-Europe Grid Computing , an EU Funded project ) OGSA-BES 1.0 Final implementation for Globus Toolkit Platform. See project detail here. Basic Execution Service (BES) A Basic Execution Service (BES) is a service to which clients can send requests to initiate, monitor and manage computational activities (or jobs). The Open Grid Forum (OGF) provides a detailed specification for a BES. This is complemented by the Job Submission Description Language (JSDL) specification. The intention of these specifications is to abstract from the operating system and the cluster controller on which the job is to run. Currently, a mature implementation of these developing specifications is available from the GridSAM project at Imperial College London, or through OMII-UK, who sponsored the development. GridSAM has been shown to work in various environments, in particular with Globus GT2.4 and with the basic Web Services stack available from OMII-UK, and with various schedulers including Condor and PBS. OMII-Europe is deploying a BES on the three platforms and aims to show interoperability between them at the level of jobs being submitted to each without requiring any platform-specific alterations. _________________________________________________________________________ A Black-Box Approach to Performance Analysis of Grid 
We propose a black-box approach to performance analysis of grid middleware and present the architecture of a non-invasive platform-independent evaluation tool that quantifies the effects of the overhead imposed by grid middleware on both the throughput of the system and on the turnaround times of grid applications. This approach is a step towards producing a middleware independent, comparable, reproducible and fair performance analysis of grid middlewares. The result of such performance analysis can be used by system administrators to tune the system configuration and by developers to find the bottlenecks and problems in their design and implementation of the system. It can also be used to devise more optimized usage patterns. As a proof of concept, we describe the implementation details of the evaluation tool for UNICORE 5 and demonstrate the result of initial experiments.
