In the (t, n) proxy signature scheme, the signature, originally signed by a signer, can be signed by t or more proxy signers out of a proxy group of n members. Recently, an efficie...
We report our effort to build a geometry deductive database, which can be used to find the fixpoint for a geometric configuration. The system can find all the properties of the con...
