Flood is a communication primitive that can be used by the base station of a sensor network to send a copy of a message to every sensor in the network. When a sensor receives a fl...
Abstract. In sensor networks, correct clocks have arbitrary starting offsets and nondeterministic fluctuating skews. We consider an adversary that aims at tampering with the cloc...

Abstract. “Pulse Synchronization” intends to invoke a recurring distributed event at the different nodes, of a distributed system as simultaneously as possible and with a freq...
System design often explores optimality of performance. What is optimal is, however, often not predefined or static in most cases, because it is affected by the context of operat...
We present formal definitions of stabilization for the Timed I/O Automata (TIOA) framework, and of emulation for the timed Virtual Stationary Automata programming abstraction laye...
Consider a network of processes that exchange messages via FIFO communication channels. Each process chooses a subset of its neighboring processes to be its successors. Furthermore...
We introduce a new abstract system, called the truth system. In the truth system, a process deduces a true value, with high probability, from an incoming stream of both true and fa...
We present a modular redesign of TrustedPals, a smartcard-based security framework for solving secure multiparty computation (SMC)[?]. TrustedPals allows to reduce SMC to the probl...
