We consider the problem of manipulating elections via cloning candidates. In our model, a manipulator can replace each candidate c by one or more clones, i.e., new candidates that...

Literature on the topic of code cloning often asserts that duplicating code within a software system is a bad practice, that it causes harm to the system's design and should b...
Distributed simulation cloning technology is designed to analyze alternative scenarios of a distributed simulation concurrently within the same execution session. The goal is to o...

In previous work we presented an algorithm for cloning parallel simulations that enables multiple simulated execution paths to be explored simultaneously. The method is targeted f...
In this work we focus on a new technique for making cloning of parallel simulations more efficient. Cloning provides a means for running multiple similar simulations in parallel ...
Cloning (ad hoc reuse by duplication of design or code) speeds up development, but also hinders future maintenance. Cloning also hints at reuse opportunities that, if exploited sys...
