In this paper, we introduce Quasi Serializability, a correctness criterion for concurrency control in heterogeneous distributed database environments. A global history is quasi se...
I consider issues in distributed computation that should be of relevance to game theory. In particular, I focus on (a) representing knowledge and uncertainty, (b) dealing with fai...
: Design of secure systems can often be expressed as ensuring that some property is maintained at every step of a distributed computation among mutually-untrusting parties. Special...
Security of quantum key distribution against sophisticated attacks is among the most important issues in quantum information theory. In this work we prove security against a very ...

In this paper a theory for the synthesis of geometric concepts is presented. The theory is focused on a constructive process that synthesizes a function in the geometric domain re...
