Query processing techniques for XML data have focused mainly on tree-pattern queries (TPQs). However, the need for querying XML data sources whose structure is very complex or not...
We present a new polynomial-time randomized algorithm for discovering affine equalities involving variables in a program. The key idea of the algorithm is to execute a code fragme...
Many protocols that are based on homomorphic encryption are private only if a client submits inputs from a limited range S. Conditional disclosure of secrets (CDS) helps to overcom...
In regular inference, the problem is to infer a regular language, typically represented by a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) from answers to a finite set of membership querie...
Abstract--A widespread design approach in distributed applications based on the service-oriented paradigm, such as web-services, consists of clearly separating the enforcement of a...
