We propose a new cryptographic primitive called oblivious signaturebased envelope (OSBE). Informally, an OSBE scheme enables a sender to send an envelope (encrypted message) to a ...
PDE solvers using Adaptive Mesh Refinement on block structured grids are some of the most challenging applications to adapt to massively parallel computing environments. We descr...
