• Virtualized Network Teaching Laboratory by Eric Freudenthal, Frederick Kautz, Bivas Das & Luc Longpre - ASEE Annual Conference & Exposition 2009

• In this paper, we describe how we designed a network teaching lab based on virtual machines connected on a virtual network. An instructor can create a virtual network and make it available to students. Students can configure the network and run experiments as instructed.

Modularized Trust Management for Distributed Coalition Environments by Bivas Das & Eric A. Freudenthal - 6th Joint UTEP/NMSU Workshop on Mathematics, Computer Science, and Computational Sciences

• VPAF: Validated and Prolonged Authentication Framework by Eric Freudenthal & Bivas Das - International Conference on Collaborative Computing: Networking, Applications and Worksharing, 2009

• Distributed authorization systems intended to support collaborative coalitions typically incorporate mechanisms to both validate credentials, and to determine authorization. Also they are designed to authorize instantaneous transactions rather than monitor the continued authorization of prolonged relationships. VPAF will separate these duties in a manner that permits credential validation and authorization decisions to be managed and monitored separately across mutually distrustful administrative domains

• Reliable and Fault Tolerant Distributed Caching using Memcached by Bivas Das - 7th Joint NMSU/UTEP Workshop on Mathematics, Computer Science, and Computational Sciences

• Eliciting Intuitive Understandings of Binary Operations in a First Course on Computer Organization by Eric Freudenthal, Bivas Das and Avranil Tah - Frontiers in Education Conference, 2010
