A methodology for generating verified combinatorial circuits
High-level programming languages offer significant expressivity but provide little or no guarantees about resource use. Resourcebounded languages -- such as hardware-description l...

Geometrically exact dynamic splines
In this paper, we propose a complete model handling the physical simulation of deformable 1D objects. We formulate continuous expressions for stretching, bending and twisting ener...

Differential privacy and robust statistics
We show by means of several examples that robust statistical estimators present an excellent starting point for differentially private estimators. Our algorithms use a new paradig...

A type system for higher-order modules
We present a type theory for higher-order modules that accounts for many central issues in module system design, including translucency, applicativity, generativity, and modules a...

Insuring Risk-Averse Agents
Abstract. In this paper we explicitly model risk aversion in multiagent interactions. We propose an insurance mechanism that be can used by risk-averse agents to mitigate against r...
