Managing LTL properties in Event-B refinement

Refinement in Event-B supports the development of systems via proof based step-wise refinement of events. This refinement approach ensures safety properties are preserved, but additional reasoning is required in order to establish liveness and fairness properties. In this paper we present results which allow a closer integration of two formal methods, Event-B and linear temporal logic. In particular we show how a class of temporal logic properties can carry through a refinement chain of machines. Refinement steps can include introduction of new events, event renaming and event splitting. We also identify a general liveness property that holds for the events of the initial system of a refinement chain. The approach will aid developers in enabling them to verify linear temporal logic properties at early stages of a development, knowing they will be preserved at later stages. We illustrate the results via a simple case study

Privacy-Preserving Electronic Ticket Scheme with Attribute-based Credentials

Electronic tickets (e-tickets) are electronic versions of paper tickets, which enable users to access intended services and improve services' efficiency. However, privacy may be a concern of e-ticket users. In this paper, a privacy-preserving electronic ticket scheme with attribute-based credentials is proposed to protect users' privacy and facilitate ticketing based on a user's attributes. Our proposed scheme makes the following contributions: (1) users can buy different tickets from ticket sellers without releasing their exact attributes; (2) two tickets of the same user cannot be linked; (3) a ticket cannot be transferred to another user; (4) a ticket cannot be double spent; (5) the security of the proposed scheme is formally proven and reduced to well known (q-strong Diffie-Hellman) complexity assumption; (6) the scheme has been implemented and its performance empirically evaluated. To the best of our knowledge, our privacy-preserving attribute-based e-ticket scheme is the first one providing these five features. Application areas of our scheme include event or transport tickets where users must convince ticket sellers that their attributes (e.g. age, profession, location) satisfy the ticket price policies to buy discounted tickets. More generally, our scheme can be used in any system where access to services is only dependent on a user's attributes (or entitlements) but not their identities.Comment: 18pages, 6 figures, 2 table

Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 367: Late historical texts; OE Homilies, OE ''Vision of Leofric," etc.

54. Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 367 Late historical texts; OE Homilies, OE ''Vision of Leofric," etc. [Ker 62, 63, 64; Gneuss 100] HISTORY: Manuscript of mid-11c to 15c is a composite volume containing two distinct parts made up of five original manuscripts or portions thereof. The OE texts form three items in Ker (Cat.); in James (1912: 2.199) the two main Latin texts are designated as A, and the OE as B. The provenance of the manuscript may be Worcester: certain parts of it, item 8 below in particular,probably originated there.The manuscript contains: Part A, on paper: (1) a 15c chronicle that is an extract from the "Polychronicon" (on paper, ff 1-29); (2) a 15c short history of England up to 1402 (on paper, ff 30-53); Part B, on parchment: (3) part of Ælfric's translation of Bede's "De temporibus" (from f. 54) dated 1160 x 1190 (Ker 62); (4) a disordered set of homiletic fragments (the original manuscript probably followed the sequence of the church year) dated to the mid-12c, most of which are by Ælfric (Ker 63); (5) the Latin text, "Logica quaedam", plus (6) a Latin verse in quatrains, "Versus quidam," plus CT) part of a Latin life of St: Kenelm (ca. mid 11c-12c), plus items added in blank space at the end of the quire: (8a) a book-list (mid-1lc),(8b) the OE ''Vision of Leofric" (1080 x 1100), a letter from the abbot of Westminster to the prior of Worcester datable to ca. 1130, a charm, and an imperfect Latin text concerning monastic constitutions (12c) (Ker 64).Marginalia in Latin on parchment ff 1-2, 7-10 ("De temporibus") are of 14c and refer to the text. Document (53 Henry III) in outer margin of Part B, f. 3r reading, 'Omnibus ... Watt. de La Fort(?) ...Noueritis me dedisse ...Philip. filio meo quatuor croppos ...in camp de Henton ...ao v.v. H. Liii ...Test. Joh. Jokyn. Le Fraunke | Joh. Wace ... | Wace ... | Le Fraunke' Qames 1912: 2.201).Notes also in margins of f. 28r.At f.28r, in the top and left margins, the beginning of a document has been practiced: 'Sciant p<re>sentes et future quod ego' (14c). At f. 50v/17, a 13c note reads 'Vesp<er>us <est> grandis interpolatio nubium inter nos et solem'.This manuscript is part of a collection of fragments bound together for Archbishop Parker. It was kept 'inter libror. impressos' in 1575. The mark '19-9' is on f. i of Part 1. Nothing is known of the individual elements that make up this composite codex, save that the letter on f. 52r provides a provenance of Worcester for at least that quire. Importantly, it seems that by the 14c, when the annotator whose hand is apparent at ff. 1, 2, 7-10, and 28r was working, Quires I and II-VII were probably kept together (i.e., "De temporibus" and the OE homilies). Rebound in tan goatskin in 1946. CODICOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION: Ff. iv+ 53 + 52+ ii leaves. Foliation in ink throughout: one set of foliation, paper 1-53; first two leaves of vellum initially foliated 54, 55, then refoliated as 1 onwards. Flyleaf iii verso has ink '367' in top right comer and a Corpus Christi College ex libris plate; iv verso has an ink '36' in top left comer.[Note: The paper and parchment sections of CCCC 367 are separately quired in this description.]Dimensions of leaves and written space as follows: Paper: Items 1 and 2 (15c) measure ca. 215 x 138 mm.; written space 165 x 115 mm. Single column with pencil ruling. Parchment Items 3-5: Quire I measures ca. 214 x 142 mm.; written space ca. 170 x 103 mm. 30-38 long lines; ruling in pencil. Single bounding lines. Pricks in both margins to guide ruling. Quires II-VII measure ca. 214 x 142 mm.; written space ca. 176 x 105 mm. 26-30 long lines (27 lines on ff. 17, 29). Single bounding lines in Quires II, III (except ff. 3, 4, 5, 6 which have double bounding lines). Ruling probably in dry point. Quire VIII ca. 214 x 140 mm.; written space ca. 170 x 108 mm. Annotations and corrections in the margins, some of which have been excised by trimming. 43 longlines. Quire IX measures ca. 214 x 134 mm.; written space 193 x 120 mm. in two pencil-ruled columns of 32 lines, the quatrains linked by wavy brackets on f. 42 (ff. 42-44). Quire X measures 213 x 138 mm.; written space is 178 x 113 mm. Single column of 22 lines until f. 48r/12, when text is squeezed into lower and right margins. Dry point ruling (virtually incising the parchment). Quire XI has a variety of informal copies of texts and pen-trials.Pages i-ii and two at the end are paper flyleaves of date of binding (1946). Ff. 1-53 are paper of 15c. Remainder of manuscript is vellum, arranged HFHF. The condition of the first, paper part of the codex is good. The condition of the parchment quires is less so. Evidently, poor quality parchment was used, certainly for ff. 3-6, 11-29. There is a hole at f. 16/13-14 around which text is written, and holes appear at the bottom off. 4. There are (?)water stains at ff 5v, 10r, 18, 20, 26. Repairs have been done at ff. 17, 23, 24. In the case of Quire I (ff. 1, 2, 7-10), it appears that scraps of parchment were employed for the copying of "De temporibus": 39 lines of writing are squeezed into the space on f. 2v, and space is at a premium on the misshapen leaves (f. 7 is irregular) in this quire. F. 51r is damaged also, with a number of holes, one measuring 30 x 25 mm.Paper: Item 1 is written by one scribe of the 15c in an informal, splayed Secretary hand; Item 2 is written by one scribe of the 15c in an informal Anglicana hand.Parchment: Item 3 ("De temporibus") is written in a hand of 1160 x 1180 that includes Insular f, g, and r and which is probably by the same scribe as the main hand of Cambridge, University Llbrary, Ii. 1. 33 [98] (Trehame 1998: 239-44). Item 4 (homilies) is written by one hand of mid-12c which includes insular f, g, and r. Item 5 is written in an Anglicana script of 14c. Item 6 is a 14c hand similar to a university bookhand. Item 7 (Latin life ofKenelm) is written in a good Caroline minuscule hand of mid-1lc, similar in appearance to the hand of the Cotton-Corpus Legendary (London, BL, Cotton Nero E. i, Parts 1 and 2 [207] and Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 9 [22]). A 12c hand completed the text. Items 8a and 8b are written in Insular minuscule script of mid-11c and 1060 x 1080 respectively; Caroline a is occasionally used in 8b. The last texts are written in a number of 12c hands. COLLATION: Collation appears to be as James (1912) suggests: Part A: Paper I-II10 (ff. 1-20) III12 wants 10-12 (ff. 21-29), IV14 (f. 30-43), V10 (ff. 44-53). Catchwords in bottom margins at ff. 39r, 43v, 48v, 51v. Part B: Parchment: I8 wants 7 and 8 (now forms ff. 1, 2, 7-10), II3 a singleton and bifolium originally leaves 3, 4, 5 of a quire of eight (now ff. 21, 20, 26), III2 a middle bifolium (now ff. 17, 29), IV8 wants 2, 7 (now ff. 23, 6, 3-5, 24), V8 wants 7, 8 (now ff. 11-16), VI4 two bifolia, leaves 2 and 3 of a quire of 8 (now ff. 28, 19, 27, 18), VII2 a bifolium, perhaps leaf 2 of a quire (now ff. 22, 25), VIII12 ("Logica quaedam") (ff. 30-41), IX3 (ff. 42-44), X8 wants 1, 7, 8 (ff. 45-49), XI2 (ff. 50-51), XII1 (f. 52).[Note: Ker suggests that Qui.res V and VI were adjacent, as were IV and V. Furthermore, a qui.re is missing between III and IV, leaves are missing after I and II, and an indeterminate number of leaves are missing at the beginning and end.)

RF Magnetron Sputtering of Transparent Conducting Oxides and CdTe/CdS Solar Cells

The applicability of radio frequency magnetron sputtering (RFMS) for the development of: a) transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) and b) fully sputtered CdTe/CdS solar cells is demonstrated. TCO materials - In2O3:Sn (ITO), SnO2:F (FTO), ZnO:Al (AZO) and ZnO:F (FZO) - were investigated with respect to key deposition parameters in an attempt to generate films with low resistivities and high transmittances. Minimum resistivity values of 1.2 x 10^-4 Ohm.cm and 4.7 x 10^-4 Ohm.cm were achieved for films of ITO and AZO respectively while maintaining transmittances of > 80%. Such films are viable for incorporation into CdTe based solar cells as front contact layers. A model for the dielectric permittivity for TCO materials is presented based on classical Lorentz and Drude models of bound and free electron behaviour, and a model of inter-band transitions that describes behaviour in the vicinity of a direct band-gap. The model is successfully applied to the tting of transmittance data for TCO films and used to extract opto-electronic properties. The results of a fully-sputtered CdTe prototype device structure are presented; a maximum conversion eciency of 12.5% is achieved. Further investigations, via XRD, into the effect of sputter pressure on CdTe films indicates that a 10 mTorr Ar pressure is best for optimising device effciency. J-V-T and C-V measurements show that at room temperature, current transport in the sputtered devices is dominated by Shockley-Read-Hall recombination and that the CdTe layer, under zero applied bias, is fully depleted with a carrier concentration of 4 x 10^14 cm^-3. Cross-sectional SEM and TEM show that both CdS and CdTe layers undergo significant recrystallisation during post-deposition CdCl2 treatment. A multi-layer optical model of transmittance is developed based on a transfer matrix method and using optical data acquired from spectrophotometry and ellipsometry. The model is used to predict the fraction of transmitted light received by the CdTe absorber in a fully sputtered device and it is indicated that through further thinning of the CdS layer, to below 50 nm, significant gains in transmittance, upwards of 20%, may be achieved. It is established that the further development of sputtered CdTe/CdS solar cells requires a significant improvement in the uniformity of the current CdCl2 based post-deposition treatment

Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 303: Homilies

49. Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 303Homilies[Ker 57, Gneuss -] HISTORY: Manuscript dated by Ker (Cat.) to early 12c, though probably closer to mid-12c, and almost certainly attributable to Rochester Cathedral Priory. The manuscript contains 73 texts: homilies for Sundays and feast days in the Temporale and the second half of the Sanctorale, together with miscellaneous items at the end. The contents can be divided into five groups (Godden 1979: xxxiv) arranged, for the most part, according to the church year: the homilies from the second Sunday in Epiphany (this first homily only survives as four lines) to the twenty-first Sunday after Pentecost. As the manuscript is incomplete at the beginning (having lost 44 folios) and end, it probably originally also contained texts for the first half of the Sanctorale. Sixty­ three of the pieces are by Ælfric, the remainder being anonymous (with the first erased). While the origin of this manuscript is probably Rochester, nothing is known of its subsequent medieval history. It was in Archbishop Parker's possession after 1565, who labelled it 'Homiliarum Saxonicarum Liber Nonus' (S. 17). Parker bequeathed it to Corpus Christi College in his Indenture of 1575. CODICOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION: iv + 182 + ii leaves. Pagination occurs at top right of rectos, iii, iv (paginated i, ii, with f. 43 at the top right of p. ii recto), and in black ink on the rectos of pp. 1-361. Medieval Arabic foliation in pencil begins at f. 45 (now p. 1) where it appears underneath the strip of parchment placed by Parker over the erased four lines of the first extant item. This medieval foliation in the middle of the top margin has been partially excised throughout the manuscript, but is half-visible on pp. 27, 39, etc. The medieval foliation is written in ink at pp. 211-39 and was probably done by the annotator of pp. 220-22.Pp. i-iv and 363-66 are modern paper flyleaves; pp. v-viii are 16c parchment. Leaves are arranged HFHF. Quire numbers occur in Arabic numerals at the lower right of the recto of each new quire (e.g., p. 251 where the number 17 can be seen in the lower right margin).Leaves measure ca. 260 x 196 mm.; writing area 213-203 x 149-138 mm. Single column with 34 lines per page usually, but 35 in Quire XI. Pencil ruling, done before folding, with single vertical and two horizontal bounding lines at top and bottom (penultimate and ultimate horizontal lines ruled). Quality of leaves varies from suede-like (Quire II) to thin parchment (Quire XI), but condition of leaves and ink is excellent throughout, though p. 1 and 362 show signs of having been left unbound for a time as they are both yellowed. Thereare few defects (pale staining on pp. 10, 11, 280 in the margins, natural holes at pp. 147 and 177, and at pp. 85 and 255/13-14, where the holes are repaired). Ink is black. Titles in red minuscule with red litterae notabiliores, and some red infilling of letter-forms within the text. Letters and titles placed in the margin by the scribe as guides for the miniator/rubricator have often been lost, though some are visible (e.g., pp. 68, 76, 327, and 341). Rebound in tan goatskin in 1956.There are two main hands in the manuscript, writing a very regular, angular script. Scribe A wrote pages 1-50, 203-end. Scribe B wrote pp. 51-202. Insular forms of fandg are used, but Caroline a and r. A third scribe, who was also the corrector, rubricator, and miniator, wrote pp. 226/27-231/28, 251/10-254/5, and, unnoticed by Ker (Cat.), also wrote all of p. 233. 1bis scribe uses Insular r, f, and g. Methods of correction include expunction, interlinear insertions, overwriting, and striking through. A Parkerian table of contents occurs on p. ii recto/verso in two columns.There are some contemporary glosses (for which see individual items below). There are also numerous later glosses, notes and marginalia in pencil and ink. At pp. 220-22 are late 13c or 14c ink glosses and annotations that demonstrate careful reading of this text ("Feria III in Rogationibus"): at p. 220/27, 'senne' glosses 'leahter', 'prude' glosses 'ofermodignysse'. Atp. 222/22, 'luxuria' glosses 'forlyr'. At p. 220/21, a marginal note reads 'Eleemosina triplex'; p. 220/27, the marginal note 'septe<m> capital<is> peccata' occurs; p. 221/27, marginal note 'septem'; p. 222/5, 'vana gl(or)ia' in the left margin glosses 'idelwuldor'; and at p. 222/21, 'virtutum 7 viciorum c<on>flict<us>' occurs in the left margin. A series of dots, from one dot to seven, occurs beside the text at p. 220/21, 22, 23 and p. 221/8, 13, 19, 24, 31 and refers to the list of the seven sins in the OE text. There are 16c (?) glosses on p. 21/22, 'desertu<m>' glosses·'westene'; p. 21/25, 'te<n>tator' glosses 'costnere'; p. 21/27, 'pane' glosses 'hlafe'; p. 22/9, 'eternall' glosses 'ecan'; 't<em>porall' glosses 'hwilwændlicum'; 17c or early 18c glosses occur at p. 248/16, where 'parabolam' glosses 'bigspell'; and p. 249/12 where 'baptist' glosses 'fulluhtere', with 'inde fuller' in the right margin.

Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 302: Ælfric, "Hexameron," Homilies

48. Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 302Ælfric, "Hexameron," Homilies[Ker 56, Gneuss 86] HISTORY: Dated by Ker (Cat.) 11/12c, although can probably be assigned to early 12c. Contains Ælfric's "Hexameron" and homilies for Sundays and feast days in the Temporale arranged according to the church year from thefirst Sunday in Advent to Wednesday in Rogationtide; incomplete at end, but the missing text is supplied by a 16c emulative hand on pp. 233-42. Shares a number of texts (items 9-34) in common with London, BL, Cotton Faustina A. ix [192]; perhaps these texts in both manuscripts derive from a common exemplar. The origin and medieval provenance of this manuscript is unknown. It was in Archbishop Parkers possession after 1565 as his 'Quintus liber homiliarum' (S. 9), and was bequeathed by Parker to Corpus Christi College in 1575. It is one of four Parker manuscripts about which nothing of their previous history is known. CODICOLOGICAL DESCRIPTION: viii+ 111 + x leaves. Pagination in red pencil occurs at top right of rectos, i-vi,1-247,249-52. Earlier, paler ink foliation is evident on some top right comers of the rectos (ff. 1,2,3, etc.) but many of these have been excised. Pp. i-iv and 249-52 are modem paper flyleaves; pp. v-vi,1-10 paper of16c; pp. 233-42 paper and parchment supply leaves of16c; pp. 243-48 parchment flyleaves of16c. Leaves arranged HFHF. Possible quire signatures at p. 154 ('I' with a tick to the right in lower right margin),p. 168 ('nf in lower right margin),p. 199 ('m' in lower right margin).Leaves measure ca. 250 x 160 mm.; writing area 200 x 113-120 mm. Single column writing grid with 31 lines per page. Drypoint ruling, done before folding, with double vertical and double horizontal bounding lines (Quire VII has antepenultimate and ultimate horizontal lines ruled; Quires XIII and XIV have single vertical bounding lines). Quality of leaves varies from suede-like to thin parchment, but condition of leaves and ink is very good throughout with only minor defects (wormholes present in Quire I excising small portions of text; natural holes in Quire II around which text is written; pale brown staining on p. 49; pp. 51,79,82-83,97,99, 155,177,183,206,214,and 225 show contemporary repairs to parchment). Ink is very dark brown and occasionally made slightly fuzzy by thick parchment. Titles in red rustic capitals with red and/or purple, or green decorated litterae notabiliores. Some contemporary and 13c English glosses (see below). Numerous later glosses,notes and marginalia in pencil and pale ink on pp. 1,11, 23, 25,30 (the latter three pages have pencil underlining with crosses in the margins at pp. 23/11-24; 25/8-9,11-13,29-31; 29/28-30,possibly by Abraham Wheelock),151 (pen-trials), 159, 161,189,213 (German and Latin notes on the "Lord's Prayer"),p. 215,218 (German), 224. At p. 215, a 16c note reads 'id est | that is, | si thin nama gehalgod |' corresponding to 'sanctificetur nomen tuu<m>' in the text. A Parkerian table of contents occurs on p. 9 that identifies 33 articles (a 19c[?] hand has added 'Be there halgan clen<n>isse' with an accompanying asterisk at article 9). The foliation of the table of contents corresponds to the actual manuscript foliation and not to the pagination scheme. Additional Parkerian marking in red crayon occurs on pp. 83 (lower right hand comer, 'se hælend cwæð þ<æt> heofon'a' rice'),177 (two red crosses in margin; 'læuel' and '7 par an' underlined in red), 183, 189 (illegible red crayon note in top margin may indicate that text is missing before p. 189). Illegible scratched gloss at p. 88/3, margin.There is one main hand in the manuscript, writing with a backward slope. Uses Insular forms with the exception of Caroline a. A second hand which is rounder and more upright writes p. 29/1-8, and (not noted by Ker) probably p. 97/3 'f:r mid þam'. Rebound in light brown leather in 1954. COLLATION: I8 (pp. 11-26), II8 (pp. 27-42), III8 (pp. 43-58), IV8 (pp.59-74), V8 (pp. 75-90), VI8 (pp. 91-106), VII8 (pp. 107-122), VIII8 (pp.123-138), IX8 (pp. 139-154), X8 (pp. 155-170), XI8 (pp. 171-186), XII8 wants 2 after p. 188 (pp. 187-198),XIII8 (pp.199-215),XIV8 3 and 6 half-sheets (pp. 216-232); an indeterminate number of pages are missing at the end.[Note: The manuscript is very tightly bound and the quiring of III-XI is hard to see, so Ker is to be much trusted here, having seen the manuscript before it was rebound.)
