In multicenter biomedical research, integrating data from multiple decentralized sites provides more robust and generalizable findings due to its larger sample size and the ability to account for the between-site heterogeneity. However,…
In this paper, we revisit the use of honeypots for detecting reflective amplification attacks. These measurement tools require careful design of both data collection and data analysis including cautious threshold inference. We survey common…
Honeypots are designed to trap the attacker with the purpose of investigating its malicious behavior. Owing to the increasing variety and sophistication of cyber attacks, how to capture high-quality attack data has become a challenge in the…
The Statistical Toolkit is an open source system specialized in the statistical comparison of distributions. It addresses requirements common to different experimental domains, such as simulation validation (e.g. comparison of experimental…
This paper describes a distributed collaborative wiki-based platform that has been designed to facilitate the development of Semantic Web applications. The applications designed using this platform are able to build semantic data through…
Organizations increasingly need to collaborate by performing a computation on their combined dataset, while keeping their data hidden from each other. Certain kinds of collaboration, such as collaborative data analytics and AI, require a…
Key-based workload partitioning is a common strategy used in parallel stream processing engines, enabling effective key-value tuple distribution over worker threads in a logical operator. While randomized hashing on the keys is capable of…
We present the Quantum Hamiltonian Analysis Toolkit (QHAT), a newly developed application that provides a user-friendly interface for studying Hamiltonians and performing Hamiltonian simulation on fault-tolerant quantum computers. QHAT…
Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is a means of generating keys between a pair of computing hosts that is theoretically secure against cryptanalysis, even by a quantum computer. Although there is much active research into improving the QKD…
Several distributed system paradigms utilize Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) to realize structured peer-to-peer (P2P) overlays. DHT structures arise as the most commonly used organizations for peers that can efficiently perform crucial…
