Approximation has been shown to be an eective method for reducing the time and space costs of solving various oorplan area minimization problems. In this paper, we present several...
The importance of faces in human interaction explains the desire for synthetic faces as a communication vehicle in computer graphics. Unfortunately, animating a face is a very com...
Non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs play an essential role in many cryptographic protocols. We suggest several NIZK proof systems based on prime order groups with a bilinear map...
Identifying peptides, which are short polymeric chains of amino acid residues in a protein sequence, is of fundamental importance in systems biology research. The most popular appr...
Distributed averaging describes a class of network algorithms for the decentralized computation of aggregate statistics. Initially, each node has a scalar data value, and the goal...
