We study two problems of private matrix multiplication, over a distributed computing system consisting of a master node, and multiple servers that collectively store a family of public matrices using Maximum-Distance-Separable (MDS) codes.…
In this paper we construct a deterministic polynomial time algorithm for the problem where a set of users is interested in gaining access to a common file, but where each has only partial knowledge of the file. We further assume the…
An attacker can gain information of a user by analyzing its network traffic. The size of transferred data leaks information about the file being transferred or the service being used, and this is particularly revealing when the attacker has…
Coded caching has the potential to greatly reduce network traffic by leveraging the cheap and abundant storage available in end-user devices so as to create multicast opportunities in the delivery phase. In the seminal work by Maddah-Ali…
We study the problem of private set intersection (PSI). In this problem, there are two entities $E_i$, for $i=1, 2$, each storing a set $\mathcal{P}_i$, whose elements are picked from a finite field $\mathbb{F}_K$, on $N_i$ replicated and…
We consider a set of $n$ messages and a group of $k$ clients. Each client is privileged for receiving an arbitrary subset of the messages over a broadcast erasure channel, which generalizes scenario of a previous work. We propose a method…
A centralized coded caching system, consisting of a server delivering N popular files, each of size F bits, to K users through an error-free shared link, is considered. It is assumed that each user is equipped with a local cache memory with…
With gradient coding, a user node can efficiently aggregate gradients from server nodes processing local datasets, achieving low communication costs and maintaining resilience against straggling servers. This paper considers a secure…
Coded caching has been widely used in the wireless network for shifting the some transmissions during the peak traffic times to the off-peak traffic times. Multi-server coded caching, which can share responsibility for the total amount of…
Maximum distance separable (MDS) array codes are widely employed in modern distributed storage systems to provide high data reliability with small storage overhead. Compared with the data access latency of the entire file, the data access…
We study the problem of compressing a source sequence in the presence of side-information that is related to the source via insertions, deletions and substitutions. We propose a simple algorithm to compress the source sequence when the…
A new computational private information retrieval (PIR) scheme based on random linear codes is presented. A matrix of messages from a McEliece scheme is used to query the server with carefully chosen errors. The server responds with the sum…
A lossy source coding problem is studied in which a source encoder communicates with two decoders, one with and one without correlated side information with an additional constraint on the privacy of the side information at the uninformed…
This paper deals with vector linear index codes for multiple unicast index coding problems where there is a source with K messages and there are K receivers each wanting a unique message and having symmetric (with respect to the receiver…
This work investigates the problem of demand privacy against colluding users for shared-link coded caching systems, where no subset of users can learn any information about the demands of the remaining users. The notion of privacy used here…
We consider the problem of private multiple linear computation (PMLC) over a replicated storage system with colluding and unresponsive constraints. In this scenario, the user wishes to privately compute $P$ linear combinations of $M$ files…
This paper revisits the problems of Private Information Retrieval (PIR) and Symmetric PIR (SPIR). In PIR, a user retrieves a desired message from $N$ replicated, non-communicating databases, each storing the same $M$ messages, while…
In this work, a distributed server system composed of multiple servers that holds some coded files and multiple users that are interested in retrieving the linear functions of the files is investigated, where the servers are robust, blind…
In many applications, content accessed by users (movies, videos, news articles, etc.) can leak sensitive latent attributes, such as religious and political views, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, and others. To prevent such…
Consider the problem of private information retrieval (PIR) over a distributed storage system where $M$ records are stored across $N$ servers by using an $[N,K]$ MDS code. For simplicity, this problem is usually referred as the coded PIR…
