Multi-valued validated Byzantine agreement (MVBA), a fundamental primitive of distributed computing, allows $n$ processes to agree on a valid $\ell$-bit value, despite $t$ faulty processes behaving maliciously. Among hash-based solutions…

Mass spectrometry (MS) based omics data analysis require significant time and resources. To date, few parallel algorithms have been proposed for deducing peptides from mass spectrometry-based data. However, these parallel algorithms were…

In a $k$-party communication problem, the $k$ players with inputs $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_k$, respectively, want to evaluate a function $f(x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_k)$ using as little communication as possible. We consider the message-passing…
