Optimal Resilience Asynchronous Approximate Agreement
Consider an asynchronous system where each process begins with an arbitrary real value. Given some fixed > 0, an approximate agreement algorithm must have all non-faulty process...

Multi-channel Protocols for Group Key Agreement in Arbitrary Topologies
We consider group key agreement (GKA) protocols, used by a group of peers to establish a shared secret key for multicast communications. There has been much previous work to impro...

Failure Detectors and Extended Paxos for k-Set Agreement
Failure detector class Ωk has been defined in [18] as an extension to failure detector Ω, and an algorithm has been given in [16] to solve k-set agreement using Ωk in async...

Modeling hidden dynamics of multimodal cues for spontaneous agreement and disagreement recognition
— This paper attempts to recognize spontaneous agreement and disagreement based only on nonverbal multimodal cues. Related work has mainly used verbal and prosodic cues. We demon...
