We present an algorithm called Optimistic Linear Programming (OLP) for learning to optimize average reward in an irreducible but otherwise unknown Markov decision process (MDP). O...
Abstract. We propose a dynamic process for network evolution, aiming at explaining the emergence of the small world phenomenon, i.e., the statistical observation that any pair of i...

We propose a programming language, called PCML5, for building distributed applications with distributed access control. Target applications include web-based systems in which prog...
—This paper discusses public-key authenticated key agreement protocols. First, we critically analyze several authenticated key agreement protocols and uncover various theoretical...
