We have carefully instrumented a large portion of the population living in a university graduate dormitory by giving participants Android smart phones running our sensing software...
We present an automatic analyzer for measuring information flow within software systems. In this paper, we quantify leakage in terms of information theory and incorporate this comp...
In distributed computing systems, processes in different hosts take checkpoints to survive failures. For mobile computing systems, due to certain new characteristics conventional d...
