Abstract. Current peer-to-peer architectures are hardly resistant against unanticipated exceptions such as the failure of single peers. This can be justified by the absence of soph...
We show that a number of recent definitions and constructions of fuzzy extractors are not adequate for multiple uses of the same fuzzy secret—a major shortcoming in the case of...
Abstract. The secure deployment of components is widely recognized as a crucial problem in component-based software engineering. While major effort is concentrated on preventing ma...
Abstract. One of the most appealing features of constraint programming is its rich constraint language for expressing combinatorial optimization problems. This paper demonstrates t...
It is possible to model avatars that learn to simulate object manipulations and other complex actions. A number of applications may benefit from this technique including safety, e...
