We describe and analyze a 3-state one-way population protocol to compute approximate majority in the model in which pairs of agents are drawn uniformly at random to interact. Given...
Because of increasing hardware and software complexity, the running time of many computational science applications is now more than the mean-time-to-failure of highpeformance com...

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...
Most software that most people use most of the time needs only moderate assurance of fitness for its intended purpose. Unlike high-assurance software, where the severe consequence...
The efficiency of service discovery is critical in the development of fully decentralized middleware intended to manage large scale computational grids. This demand influenced t...
