Advances in MEMS technology, wireless communications, and digital electronics have enabled the development of low-cost, low-power, multifunctional sensor nodes that integrating th...
In an e-commerce system, security, in particular authentication, is of paramount importance. Public-key Infrastructure is often used to enforce authentication and the property of ...
This paper proposes LTNC, a new recoding algorithm to build low complexity network codes. At the core of LTNC is a decentralized version of LT codes that allows the use of fast be...
—We suggest a method of controlling the access to a secure database via quorum systems. A quorum system is a collection of sets (quorums) every two of which have a nonempty inter...
The increasing complexity of today’s systems makes fast and accurate failure detection essential for their use in mission-critical applications. Various monitoring methods provi...
