We describe the design and implementation of a trust-management system Soutei, a dialect of Binder, for access control in distributed systems. Soutei policies and credentials are w...
We present a unified framework for designing polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for “dense” instances of many NP-hard optimization problems, including maximum cut,...
