A cover-free family is a well-studied combinatorial structure that has many applications in computer science and cryptography. In this paper, we propose a new public key traitor t...
Abstract. In concurrent database systems, correctness of update transactions refers to the equivalent effects of the execution schedule and some serial schedule over the same set o...
Trend analysis and forecasting applications (e.g., securities trading, stock market, and after-the-fact diagnosis) need event detection along a moving time window. Event-driven app...
CPU bound client puzzles have been suggested as a defense mechanism against connection depletion attacks. However, the wide disparity in CPU speeds prevents such puzzles from being...
