The highly anticipated 5G network is projected to be introduced in 2020. 5G stakeholders
are unanimous that densification of mobile networks is the way forward. The densification …

This paper describes a new replication algorithm that is able to tolerate Byzantine faults. We
believe that Byzantinefault-tolerant algorithms will be increasingly important in the future …

Our growing reliance on online services accessible on the Internet demands highly
available systems that provide correct service without interruptions. Software bugs, operator …

We introduce HAIL (High-Availability and Integrity Layer), a distributed cryptographic system
that allows a set of servers to prove to a client that a stored file is intact and retrievable. HAIL …

Ad hoc networks are a new wireless networking paradigm for mobile hosts. Unlike traditional
mobile wireless networks, ad hoc networks do not rely on any fixed infrastructure. Instead …

We propose a robust proactive threshold signature scheme, a multisignature scheme and a
blind signature scheme which work in any Gap Diffie-Hellman (GDH) group (where the …

In this paper we present a new multi‐authority secret‐ballot election scheme that guarantees
privacy, universal veriability, and robustness. It is the first scheme for which the performance …

Blockchains are gaining traction and acceptance, not just for cryptocurrencies, but
increasingly as an architecture for distributed computing. In this work we seek solutions that …

Cryptographic computations are often carried out on insecure devices for which the threat of
key exposure represents a serious and realistic concern. In an effort to mitigate the damage …

Distributed key generation is a main component of threshold cryptosystems and distributed
cryptographic computing in general. Solutions to the distributed generation of private keys …
