In this paper we propose the gradient match fractal vector quantizers (GMFVQs) and the side match fractal vector quantizers (SMFVQs), which are two classes of finite state fractal...
Data routing in wireless sensor networks must be energy-efficient because tiny sensor nodes have limited power. A cluster-based hierarchical routing is known to be more efficient ...
Group key agreement (GKA) allows a set of players to establish a shared secret and thus bootstrap secure group communication. GKA is very useful in many types of peer group scenar...
An important task in data analysis is the discovery of causal relationships between observed variables. For continuous-valued data, linear acyclic causal models are commonly used ...
Due to the prevalence of peer dynamics (i.e., churn), object maintenance becomes a fundamental issue in peer-to-peer storage systems. Although quite a few prototypes have been des...
