Virtual switches have become popular among cloud operating systems to interconnect virtual machines in a more flexible manner. However, this paper demonstrates that virtual switches introduce new attack surfaces in cloud setups, whose…
The QUIC protocol combines features that were initially found inside the TCP, TLS and HTTP/2 protocols. The IETF is currently finalising a complete specification of this protocol. More than a dozen of independent implementations have been…
Recently, Li et al. [Phys. Rev. A, 82(2), 022303] presented two semi-quantum secret sharing (SQSS) protocols using GHZ-like states. The proposed schemes are rather practical because only the secret dealer requires to equip with advanced…
Hybrid quantum-classical algorithms have drawn much attention because of their potential to realize the "quantum advantage" in noisy, intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. Here we introduce QRunes, a cross-platform quantum language for…
Swarm protocols are a recently introduced formalism for specifying, implementing, and verifying peer-to-peer systems called swarms. A swarm consists of distributed agents called machines that communicate by asynchronous event propagation.…
This paper introduces a vision for Quantum Software Development lifecycle, proposing a hybrid full-stack iterative model that integrates quantum and classical computing. Addressing the current challenges in Quantum Computing (QC) such as…
Encryption provides a method to protect data outsourced to a DBMS provider, e.g., in the cloud. However, performing database operations over encrypted data requires specialized encryption schemes that carefully balance security and…
Traditionally, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has been implemented to run on Virtual Machines (VMs) in form of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). More recently, the so-called Serverless Computing has gained traction in cloud…
Writing efficient hybrid parallel code is tedious, error-prone, and requires good knowledge of both parallel programming and multithreading such as MPI and OpenMP, resp. Therefore, we present a framework which is based on a job model that…
As quantum computing technology continues to advance, various sectors, including industry, government, academia, and research, have increasingly focused on its future applications. With the integration of artificial intelligence techniques,…
An information owner, possessing diverse data sources, might want to offer information services based on these sources to cooperation partners and to this end interact with these partners by receiving and sending messages, which the owner…
In this paper, we show that when the communication between GenAI-powered applications relies on RAG-based inference, an attacker can initiate a computer worm-like chain reaction that we call Morris-II. This is done by crafting an…
Malicious URLs remain a primary vector for phishing, malware, and cyberthreats. This study proposes a hybrid deep learning framework combining \texttt{HashingVectorizer} n-gram analysis, SMOTE balancing, Isolation Forest anomaly filtering,…
HybridQC is an R package that streamlines quality control (QC) of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data by combining traditional threshold-based filtering with machine learning-based outlier detection. It provides an efficient and…
This paper presents an approach that exploits Java annotations to provide meta information needed to automatically transform plain Java programs into parallel code that can be run on multicore workstation. Programmers just need to decorate…
Fuzzing is an increasingly popular technique for verifying software functionalities and finding security vulnerabilities. However, current mutation-based fuzzers cannot effectively test database management systems (DBMSs), which strictly…
This work describes the design, implementation and performance analysis of a distributed two-tiered storage software. The first tier functions as a distributed software cache implemented using solid-state devices~(NVMes) and the second tier…
In a connected world, spare CPU cycles are up for grabs, if you only make its obtention easy enough. In this paper we present a distributed evolutionary computation system that uses the computational capabilities of the ubiquituous web…
With the success of self-supervised learning (SSL), it has become a mainstream paradigm to fine-tune from self-supervised pretrained models to boost the performance on downstream tasks. However, we find that current SSL models suffer severe…
Dialect translation plays a key role in enabling seamless interaction across heterogeneous database systems. However, translating SQL queries between different dialects (e.g., from PostgreSQL to MySQL) remains a challenging task due to…
