We consider the problem of sending messages into the future, commonly known as timed release cryptography. Existing schemes for this task either solve the relative time problem wi...
Caching techniques can be used to reduce bandwidth consumption and data access delay in wireless ad hoc networks. When cache is used, cache consistency issues must be addressed. T...
Abstract. In this paper we study interfaces for image retrieval systems. Current image retrieval interfaces are limited to providing query facilities and result presentation. The u...
In multi-relational databases, a view, which is a context- and content-dependent subset of one or more tables (or other views), is often used to preserve privacy by hiding sensiti...
Shock graphs have emerged as a powerful generic 2-D shape representation. However, most approaches typically assume that the silhouette has been correctly segmented. In this paper,...
