Abstract. The Linear Ordering Problem (LOP) is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that arises in a variety of applications and several algorithmic approaches to its solu...
Distributed key generation is one of the most challenging tasks for threshold cryptosystems. Designing such a protocol and proving its security against a malicious, adaptive adver...
One of the most difficult problems to be solved by metacomputing systems is to ensure strong authentication and authorization. The problem is complicated since the hosts involved ...
The paper formulates and investigates the aggregation problem for synthesized mediators of Web services (SWMs). An SWM is a finite-state transducer defined in terms of templates...
We describe an efficient technique to weigh word-based features in binary classification tasks and show that it significantly improves classification accuracy on a range of proble...
