The number of communication rounds is a classic complexity measure for protocols; reducing round complexity is a major goal in protocol design. However, when the communication time...
We examine a class of collective coin- ipping games that arises from randomized distributed algorithms with halting failures. In these games, a sequence of local coin ips is gener...
Abstract. It is shown that high-order feedforward neural nets of constant depth with piecewisepolynomial activation functions and arbitrary real weights can be simulated for Boolea...
In this paper, Boolean functions in ,4C0 are studied using harmonic analysis on the cube. The main result is that an ACO Boolean function has almost all of its “power spectrum”...
We introduce the notion of resiliency policies in the context of access control systems. Such policies require an access control system to be resilient to the absence of users. An...
