We study the question of basing symmetric key cryptography on weak secrets. In this setting, Alice and Bob share an n-bit secret W, which might not be uniformly random, but the ad...
We describe the first algorithm to compute maximum flows in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Specifically, given a graph embedded on a surface of genus g, with two spe...
A method is given for constructing a max register, a linearizable, wait-free concurrent data structure that supports a write operation and a read operation that returns the larges...
Interpretation of FIFO Replacement Daniel Grund and Jan Reineke Saarland University, Saarbr?ucken, Germany In hard real-time systems, the execution time of programs must be bounded...
We present a new approach to large-scale graph mining based on so-called backbone refinement classes. The method efficiently mines tree-shaped subgraph descriptors under minimum f...
