Clusters and distributed systems offer fault tolerance and high performance through load sharing, and are thus attractive in real-time applications. When all computers are up and ...
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...
In many applications of wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are manually deployed in hostile environments where an attacker can disrupt the localization service and tamper with...
Coordination and access control are related issues in open distributed agent systems, being both concerned with governing interaction between agents and resources. In particular, w...

Quantum key distribution is the best known application of quantum cryptography. Previously proposed proofs of security of quantum key distribution contain various technical subtle...
