We present a distributed protocol for maintaining a maximum flow spanning tree in a network, with a designated node as the root of the tree. This maximum flow spanning tree can be...
An important problem in the ®eld of distributed systems is that of detecting the termination of a distributed computation. Distributed termination detection (DTD) is a dicult p...
Abstract-- This work proposes a novel fault-tolerant classification system based on distributed detection and two-dimensional channel coding. A rule is then derived to reduce the s...
In this paper, we first propose a novel Public License Infrastructure (PLI) that uses cryptographic threshold secret sharing schemes to provide decentralized public license service...
The recent evolution of wireless sensor networks have yielded a demand to improve energy-efficient scheduling algorithms and energy-efficient medium access protocols. This paper p...
