Unsatisfiable Systems of Equations, Over a Finite Field
The properties of any system of k simultaneous equations in n variables over GF(q), are studied, with a particular emphasis on unsatisfiable systems. A general formula for the num...

On the Complexity of a Self-Stabilizing Spanning Tree Algorithm for Large Scale Systems
Many large scale systems, like grids and structured peer to peer systems, operate on a constrained topology. Since underlying networks do not expose the real topology to the appli...

Secure information flow with random assignment and encryption
Type systems for secure information flow aim to prevent a program from leaking information from variables classified as H to variables classified as L. In this work we extend such...

A Linguistic Characterization of Bounded Oracle Computation and Probabilistic Polynomial Time
We present a higher-order functional notation for polynomial-time computation with arbitrary 0; 1-valued oracle. This provides a linguistic characterization for classes such as np...

Qualitative Probabilistic Modelling in Event-B
Abstract. Event-B is a notation and method for discrete systems modelling by refinement. We introduce a small but very useful construction: qualitative probabilistic choice. It ex...
