Class diagrams must be complemented with a set of system operations that describes how users can modify and evolve the system state. To be useful, such a set must be complete (i.e....
This paper puts forward new efficient constructions for public-key broadcast encryption that simultaneously enjoy the following properties: receivers are stateless; encryption is c...
Abstract. The increasing complexity of today’s embedded systems applications imposes the requirements and constraints of distributed, heterogeneous subsystem interaction to softw...
Forecasting future events based on historic data is useful in many domains like system management, adaptive query processing, environmental monitoring, and financial planning. We...
