We consider scheduling problems in which a job consists of components of different types to be processed on m machines. Each machine is capable of processing components of a singl...
Abstract. Pairing-based cryptography (PBC) has enabled the construction of many cryptographic protocols. However, there are scenarios when PBC is too heavyweight to use, such as wh...

All systems, regardless of how carefully they have been constructed, suffer failures. This paper focuses on developing a formal understanding of failure with respect to system imp...
Recent evidences indicate that most faults in software systems are found in only a few of a system's components [1]. The early identification of these components allows an or...

A new challenge in scientific computing is to merge existing simulation models to create new higher fidelity combined (often multi-level) models. While this challenge has been a...
