Zero knowledge with efficient provers
We prove that every problem in NP that has a zero-knowledge proof also has a zero-knowledge proof where the prover can be implemented in probabilistic polynomial time given an NP ...

Maintaining time-decaying stream aggregates
We formalize the problem of maintaining time-decaying aggregates and statistics of a data stream: the relative contribution of each data item to the aggregate is scaled down by a ...
