Abstract. We study the problem of preventing double spending in electronic payment schemes in a distributed fashion. This problem occurs, for instance, when the spending of electro...
This paper briefly traces the evolution of information system architectures from mainframe-connected terminals to distributed multi-tier architectures. It presents the challenges ...

Distributed Lagrangian Relaxation Protocol (DisLRP) has been proposed to solve a distributed combinatorial maximization problem called the Generalized Mutual Assignment Problem (G...
Underwater survey by a team of autonomous robots brings couple of problems caused mainly by the communication restrictions due to the nature of environment. Communication range and...
: Electromigration induced degradation in integrated circuits has been accelerated by continuous scaling of device dimensions. We present a methodology for synthesizing high-reliab...
