Probability and Nondeterminism in Operational Models of Concurrency
We give a brief overview of operational models for concurrent systems that exhibit probabilistic behavior, focussing on the interplay between probability and nondeterminism. Our su...

Probabilistic Bisimulation and Equivalence for Security Analysis of Network Protocols
Abstract. Using a probabilistic polynomial-time process calculus designed for specifying security properties as observational equivalences, we develop a form of bisimulation that j...

Probabilistic Semantics for Cost Based Abduction
Cost-based abduction attempts to find the best explanation for a set of facts by finding a minimal cost proof for the facts. The costs are computed by summing the costs of the ass...

Are PCPs Inherent in Efficient Arguments?
Starting with Kilian (STOC ‘92), several works have shown how to use probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) and cryptographic primitives such as collision-resistant hashing to...

On Query Algebras for Probabilistic Databases
This article proposes a core query algebra for probabilistic databases. In essence, this core is part of the query languages of most probabilistic database systems proposed so far...
