We consider collusion in multi-unit auctions where the allocation and payments are determined using the VCG mechanism. We show how collusion can increase the utility of the collud...
Abstract—We present a protocol that uses a publish/subscribe approach to perform reliable but efficient actuation over a sensor network whose topology may change. Actuation on a...
— We investigate spectrum sensing by energy detection based on two different objective functions: a Bayesian sensing cost or the network weighted sum capacity. The Bayesian cost ...

Traditional agreement-based Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) systems process all requests on all replicas to ensure consistency. In addition to the overhead for BFT protocol and sta...
