Nonlinear n-stage feedback shift-register sequences over the finite field Fq of period qn − 1 are investigated under linear operations on sequences. We prove that all members o...
A secret handshake mechanism allows two entities, members of a same group, to authenticate each other secretly. This primitive was introduced recently by Balfanz, Durfee, Shankar, ...
We analyze the problem of efficient distributed storage of information in a message-passing environment where both less than one third of the servers, as well as an arbitrary num...
