We present a foundational theory of software system reliability based on components. The theory describes how component developers can design and test their components to produce ...
Many safety-critical embedded systems are subject to certification requirements. However, only a subset of the functionality of the system may be safety-critical and hence subject...
With the increasing use of Intellectual Property (IP) in the semiconductor industry, the demand to verify IP for quality is high. This paper describes ipscreen, a software tool th...
We describe a randomized algorithm that, given an integer a, produces a certificate that the integer is not a pure power of an integer in expected (log a)1+o(1) bit operations unde...
This paper presents a new protocol for certified email. The protocol aims to combine security, scalability, easy implementation, and viable deployment. The protocol relies on a li...
