Due to the application-specific nature of wireless sensor networks, application-aware algorithm and protocol design paradigms are highly required in order to optimize the overall ...
We consider a type of zero-knowledge protocols that are of interest for their practical applications within networks like the Internet: efficient zero-knowledge arguments of knowl...
This work considers the problem of communication from a single transmitter, over a network with colocated users, through an independent block Rayleigh fading channel. The colocati...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
