This paper describes a method for n players, a majority of which may be faulty, to compute correctly, privately, and fairly any computable function f(Xl, ...,x,) where xi is the i...
A boolean circuit represents an n by n (0,1)-matrix A if it correctly computes the linear transformation y = Ax over GF(2) on all n unit vectors. If we only allow linear boolean f...
We prove that the reliable computation of any Boolean function with sensitivity s requires Ω(s log s) gates if the gates of the circuit fail independently with a fixed positive...
We consider Boolean functions represented by decision lists, and study their relationships to other classes of Boolean functions. It turns out that the elementary class of 1-decis...
Perfectly synchronous systems immediately react to the inputs of their environment, which may lead to so-called causality cycles between actions and their trigger conditions. Algo...
