High assurance security is di cult to achieve in distributed computer systems and databases because of their complexity, non-determinism and inherent heterogeneity. The practical ...
We present a hybrid approach to Distributed Constraint Satisfaction which combines incomplete, fast, penalty-based local search with complete, slower systematic search. Thus, we pr...
Under highly security vulnerable, resource restricted, and dynamically changing mobile ad hoc environments, it is critical to be able to maximize the system lifetime while boundin...
In this paper, we present a framework for achieving anonymity and trust, two seemingly contradictory properties, in distributed systems. Our approach builds on webs of trust, a we...
