We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a broad class of re...

Coordinated attacks, where the tasks involved in an attack are distributed amongst multiple sources, can be used by an adversary to obfuscate his incursion. In this paper we prese...
In this paper, we introduce the generalized capacitated tree-routing problem (GCTR), which is described as follows. Given a connected graph G = (V, E) with a sink s V and a set M...
