: In this paper alternatives of tamper-proof and privacy-protected biometric identification systems are shown. One approach to secure such databases is to use cryptography. With it...
Multi-channel information systems involve data redundancy, which, in turn, requires the implementation of synchronization mechanisms among overlapping databases. This need for peri...
