In this paper we study the possibility of proving the existence of one-way functions based on average case hardness. It is well-known that if there exists a polynomial-time sample...
Self-stabilization is a strong property which guarantees that a network always resume a correct behavior starting from an arbitrary initial state. Weaker guarantees have later bee...
A simple mutual exclusion algorithm is presented that only uses nonatomic shared variables of bounded size, and that satisfies bounded overtaking. When the shared variables behave...
Abstract This paper describes a general framework for automatic termination analysis of logic programs, where we understand by termination" the niteness of the LD-tree constru...
In this paper, we explore the set of testable properties within the Safety-Progress classification where testability means to establish by testing that a relation, between the tes...
