: Design of secure systems can often be expressed as ensuring that some property is maintained at every step of a distributed computation among mutually-untrusting parties. Special...
Abstract. Computer mobility allows people to use computers in varied and changing environments. This variability forces applications to adapt thus requiring awareness of the comput...
Mobile phones are becoming a convergent platform for sensing, computation, and communication. This paper envisions VUPoints, a collaborative sensing and video-recording system tha...
Grid computations require global access to massive data stores. To meet this need, the GridNFS project aims to provide scalable, high-performance, transparent, and secure wide-are...
Many parallel applications from scientific computing use MPI global communication operations to collect or distribute data. Since the execution times of these communication opera...
