— Bit interleaved coded multiple beamforming (BICMB) was previously designed to achieve full spatial multiplexing of min(N, M) and full spatial diversity of NM for N transmit and...
In this paper, we study the maintenance of role-based access control (RBAC) models in database environments using transitive closure relations. In particular, the algorithms that ...
