We study the problem of asymptotically reducing the runtime of serial computations with circuits of polynomial size. We give an algorithmic size-depth tradeoff for parallelizing ...
Typical protocols for password-based authentication assume a single server which stores all the information (e.g., the password) necessary to authenticate a user. Unfortunately, a...

We study the partial vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a weight function w : V → R+ , and an integer s, our goal is to cover all but s edges, by picking a set of v...
Forgery and counterfeiting are emerging as serious security risks in low-cost pervasive computing devices. These devices lack the computational, storage, power, and communication r...
Software security is a significant issue in the Internet age. In order to prevent software from piracy and unauthorized modification, many techniques have been developed. Softwar...
