A maximal independent set on a graph is an inclusion-maximal set of mutually non-adjacent nodes. This basic symmetry breaking structure is vital for many distributed algorithms, w...
—With the explosive deployment of “triple play” (voice, video and data services) over the same access network, guaranteeing a certain-level of survivability for the access ne...
Abstract. In this paper, we present a multiple targets classification system for visual concepts detection and image annotation. Multiple targets classification (MTC) is a variant ...
— We consider perfect secret key generation for a “pairwise independent network” model in which every pair of terminals share a random binary string, with the strings shared ...
In this paper we analyze the statistical distribution of the keystream generator used by the stream ciphers RC4 and RC4A. Our first result is the discovery of statistical biases o...
