A multi-party contract signing protocol allows a set of participants to exchange messages with each other with a view to arriving in a state in which each of them has a pre-agreed...
Detecting duplicates in data streams is an important problem that has a wide range of applications. In general, precisely detecting duplicates in an unbounded data stream is not fe...
A decision process in which rewards depend on history rather than merely on the current state is called a decision process with non-Markovian rewards (NMRDP). In decisiontheoretic...
Suppose that some parties are connected by an incomplete network of reliable and private channels. The parties cooperate to execute some protocol. However, the parties are curious...
Tree-Structured Vector Quantization (TSVQ) is a highly efficient technique for locating an appropriate codeword for each input vector. The algorithm does not guarantee that the sel...
