—We apply large deviations theory to study asymptotic performance of running consensus distributed detection in sensor networks. Running consensus is a stochastic approximation t...
Secret sharing and multiparty computation (also called “secure function evaluation”) are fundamental primitives in modern cryptography, allowing a group of mutually distrustfu...
The actor model has already proven itself as an interesting concurrency model that avoids issues such as deadlocks and race conditions by construction, and thus facilitates concur...
