In deletion propagation, tuples from the database are deleted in order to reflect the deletion of a tuple from the view. Such an operation may result in the (often necessary) del...
Abstract. Sponge functions were introduced by Bertoni et al. as an alternative to the classical MerkleDamg˚ard design. Many hash function submissions to the SHA-3 competition laun...
We discuss the parallelization of algorithms for solving polynomial systems symbolically by way of triangular decompositions. We introduce a component-level parallelism for which ...
In this paper we construct a cyclically invariant Boolean function whose sensitivity is Θ(n1/3 ). This result answers two previously published questions. Tur´an (1984) asked if ...
We study containment and equivalence of (unions of) conjunctive queries on relations annotated with elements of a commutative semiring. Such relations and the semantics of positiv...
