Facebook Details the Software Engineering Behind Graph Search Slashdotby Soulskill on facebook at January 1, 1970, 1:00 am (cached at March 6, 2013, 11:02 pm)

Nerval's Lobster writes "Facebook's Graph Search, its new and powerful way of searching the social network for all manner of information, has drawn a lot of attention since its January unveiling. Some have praised its innovation; others have wondered openly whether its search abilities will end up threatening Google and LinkedIn. Still more have questioned what it all means for users' privacy—always a touchy subject in conjunction with Facebook. The social network previously revealed how it's adjusting its hardware infrastructure to deal with the spike in traffic that will come from interactions with Graph Search (short answer: the Disaggregated Rack, which will break up hardware resources and scale them independently of one another). Now, in a new blog posting, it's offering a bit more with regard to the software side of things, and how the company repurposed an existing system to solve Graph Search's enormous engineering challenge. Bottom line: Facebook's engineers and executives finally decided on Unicorn, an inverted-index system they'd had in development for quite some time."

IPv6 Focus Month: Guest Diary: Stephen Groat - Geolocation Using IPv6 Addresses, (We SANS Internet Storm Center, InfoCON: green(cached at March 6, 2013, 11:00 pm)


[Guest Diary: Stephen Groat] [Geolocation Using IPv6 Addresses]

Today we bring you a guest diary from Stephen Groat where he speaks about validating that IPv6 address tracking and monitoring are possible.

IPv6 designers developed a technique called stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) to reduce the administrative burden of managing the immense IPv6 address space. To most operating systems current accepted definition of SLAAC, a nodes IPv6 addresss interface identifier (IID), or host portion, is deterministic across networks. For the last 64 bits, the node automatically configures an address on the basis of its network interfaces media access control (MAC) address. Even operating systems that obscure addresses according to Request for Comments (RFC) 4941 contain a static IID used for neighbor solicitation. These static IIDs can identify a particular node, even as the node changes networks.



Using Virginia Techs campuswide IPv6 production network, which supports more than 30,000 IPv6 nodes daily, we were able to validate that IPv6 address tracking and monitoring are possible. We tested an Android mobile device using MAC-based IIDs to form wireless IPv6 addresses.



[Figure 1]

The first part of our test involved tracking the mobile device as it moved around campus. Geotemporal tracking was possible because the campus network contains different subnets that cover different geographic areas. We programmed a script that continually sent echo requests to the different subnets on campus. When we received an echo reply, we stored its time and location. Figure 1 demonstrates the results of a successful tracking attempt.



The second part of our test involved traffic monitoring. Our goal was to demonstrate that we could isolate a node, regardless of subnet, and collect all of its associated network traffic. We placed a sensor at the network border to collect all IPv6 traffic leaving the network. Using a packet sniffer, we successfully filtered the traffic related to the node in question across different subnets.

Salt Linked To Autoimmune Diseases Slashdotby Soulskill on biotech at January 1, 1970, 1:00 am (cached at March 6, 2013, 10:32 pm)

ananyo writes "The incidence of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes, has spiked in developed countries in recent decades. In three studies published today, researchers describe the molecular pathways that can lead to autoimmune disease and identify one possible culprit that has been right under our noses — and on our tables — the entire time: salt. Some forms of autoimmunity have been linked to overproduction of TH17 cells, a type of helper T cell that produces an inflammatory protein called interleukin-17. Now scientists have found sodium chloride turns on the production of these cells (abstract). They also showed that in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, a high-salt diet accelerated the disease's progression (abstract)."
