In this paper we consider the problem of reconstructing a hidden weighted
hypergraph of constant rank using additive queries. We prove the following: Let G be
a weighted hidden h...
We show how frequently occurring sequential patterns may be found from large datasets by first inducing a finite state automaton model describing the data, and then querying the m...
In a recent study a series of model checkers, among which Spin [5], SMV [9], and a newer system called XMC [10], were compared on performance. The measurements used for this compar...
A method is described for proving “always possibly” properties of specifications in formalisms with linear-time trace semantics. It is shown to be relatively complete for TLA...
A simple theoretical framework is developed to evaluate the security and usability of eavesdroppingresistant authentication schemes. Such schemes strive to allow users to authenti...
