The practical success of broadcast encryption hinges on the ability to (1) revoke the access of compromised keys and (2) determine which keys have been compromised. In this work w...
To successfully search multiple coadaptive subcomponents in a solution, we developed a novel cooperative evolutionary algorithm based on a new computational multilevel selection f...
The task of finding the optimum of some function f(x) is commonly accomplished by generating and testing sample solutions iteratively, choosing each new sample x heuristically on t...
A foundational issue underlying many overlay network applications ranging from routing to peer-to-peer file sharing is that of connectivity management, i.e., folding new arrivals ...
The Quantified Constraint Satisfaction Problem (QCSP) has been introduced to express situations in which we are not able to control the value of some of the variables (the universa...
