Commitment protocols formalize interactions among autonomous, heterogeneous agents, leaving the agents’ local policies unspecified. This paper studies the problem of agents ena...
Abstract. We provide a new characterization of certain zero-knowledge protocols as non-interactive instance-dependent commitment-schemes (NIC). To obtain this result we consider th...
Let (L, ∗) be a semilattice, and let c : L → [0, ∞) be monotone and increasing on L. We state the Minimum Join problem as: given size n sub-collection X of L and integer k w...
Recently, there has been considerable interest in computing strongly correlated pairs in large databases. Most previous studies require the specification of a minimum correlation...
Sustained emerging spatio-temporal co-occurrence patterns (SECOPs) represent subsets of object-types that are increasingly located together in space and time. Discovering SECOPs i...
