In a group signature [19], any group member can sign on behalf of the group while remaining anonymous, but its identity can be traced in an future dispute investigation. Essentiall...
Carbon nanotubes are often seen as the only alternative technology to silicon transistors. While they are the most likely short-term alternative, other longer-term alternatives sho...
Mining data streams is important in both science and commerce. Two major challenges are (1) the data may grow without limit so that it is difficult to retain a long history; and (...
