Group communication is the basic infrastructure for implementing fault-tolerant replicated servers. While group communication is well understood in the context of static systems (...
— This paper examines the decentralized recognition of groups within a multiagent normative society in dynamic environments. In our case, a social group is defined based on the ...
The virtual synchrony model for group communication has proven to be a powerful paradigm for building distributed applications. Implementations of virtual synchrony usually requir...
We study the problem of searching on encrypted data, where the search is performed using a plaintext message or a keyword, rather than a message-specific trapdoor as done by state...
This paper investigates a new learning formulation called dynamic group sparsity. It is a natural extension of the standard sparsity concept in compressive sensing, and is motivat...
