The concepts of Autonomic and Organic Computing (AC/OC) promise to make modern computer systems more secure and easier to manage. In this paper, we extend the observer/controller a...
In an oblivious transfer (OT) protocol, a Sender with messages M1, . . . , MN and a Receiver with indices 1, . . . , k [1, N] interact in such a way that at the end the Receiver ...
The Information Power Grid (IPG) concept developed by NASA is aimed to provide a metacomputing platform for large-scale distributed computations, by hiding the intricacies of a hig...
Unique and challenging security problems arise due to the scarcity of computational, storage, and power resources in the low-cost pervasive computing environment. Particularly rel...
We present a mechanism for autonomous self-adaptation of a network-based intrusion detection system (IDS). The system is composed of a set of cooperating agents, each of which is ...
