Distributed systems are hard to build, profile, debug, and test. Monitoring a distributed system – to detect and analyze bugs, test for regressions, identify fault-tolerance pr...
Abstract— We show how to efficiently extract truly random bits from two independent sources of linear min-entropy, under a computational assumption. The assumption we rely on is...
—Real-time detection is an important requirement of many mission-critical wireless sensor network applications such as battlefield monitoring and security surveillance. Due to t...
