Fast Actively Secure OT Extension for Short Secrets
(2018-05-25)
Oblivious Transfer (OT) is one of the most fundamental cryptographic primitives with wide-spread application in general secure multi-party computation (MPC) as well as in a number of tailored and special-purpose problems ...
Hard Drive Failure Prediction : A Rule Based Approach
(2011-07-12)
The ability to accurately predict an impending hard disk failure is important for reliable storage system design. The facility provided by most hard drive manufacturers, called S.M.A.R.T. (self-monitoring, analysis and ...
Large Scale Graph Processing in a Distributed Environment
(2018-05-25)
Graph algorithms are ubiquitously used across domains. They exhibit parallelism, which can be exploited on parallel architectures, such as multi-core processors and accelerators. However, real world graphs are massive in ...
Near-Duplicate Detection Using Instance Level Constraints
(2011-08-09)
For the task of near-duplicate document detection, comparison approaches based on bag-of-words used in information retrieval community are not sufficiently accurate. This work presents novel approach when instance-level ...
Codes With Locality For Distributed Data Storage
(2017-07-26)
This thesis deals with the problem of code design in the setting of distributed storage systems consisting of multiple storage nodes, storing many different data les. A primary goal in such systems is the efficient repair ...
Coding Schemes For Distributed Subspace Computation, Distributed Storage And Local Correctability
(2017-07-24)
In this thesis, three problems have been considered and new coding schemes have been devised for each of them. The first is related to distributed function computation, the second to coding for distributed storage and the ...
Minimization Problems Based On A Parametric Family Of Relative Entropies
(2017-08-21)
We study minimization problems with respect to a one-parameter family of generalized relative entropies. These relative entropies, which we call relative -entropies (denoted I (P; Q)), arise as redundancies under mismatched ...
