A conference key protocol allows a group of participants to establish a secret communication (conference) key so that all their communications thereafter are protected by the key. ...
XOR-based erasure codes are a computationallyefficient means of generating redundancy in storage systems. Some such erasure codes provide irregular fault tolerance: some subsets o...
It is widely recognized that device and interconnect fabrics at the nanoscale will be characterized by an increased susceptibility to transient faults. This appears to be intrinsi...
The high unit cost of FPGA devices often deters their use beyond the prototyping stage. Efforts have been made to reduce the part-cost of FPGA devices, resulting in the developmen...

Dining philosophers is a classic scheduling problem for local mutual exclusion on arbitrary conflict graphs. We establish necessary conditions to solve wait-free dining under even...
