Quantum circuits are the preferred formalism for expressing quantum information processing tasks. Quantum circuit design automation methods mostly use a waterfall approach and consider that high level circuit descriptions are hardware…

QUIC protocol is primarily designed to optimize web performance and security. However, previous research has pointed out that it is vulnerable to handshake flooding attacks. Attackers can send excessive volume of handshaking requests to…

This work addresses JavaScript malware detection to enhance client-side web application security with a behavior-based system. The ability to detect malicious JavaScript execution sequences is a critical problem in modern web security as…

A program is non-interferent if it leaks no secret information to an observable output. However, non-interference is too strict in many practical cases and quantitative information flow (QIF) has been proposed and studied in depth.…

For digital infrastructure to be safe, compatible, and standards-aligned, automated communication protocol compliance verification is crucial. Nevertheless, current rule-based systems are becoming less and less effective since they are…

Data centers are on the rise and scientists are re-thinking and re-designing networks for data centers. The concept of central control which was not effective in the Internet era is now gaining popularity and is used in many data centers…

Sideways information passing is a well-known technique for mitigating the impact of large build sides in a database query plan. As currently implemented in production systems, sideways information passing enables only a uni-directional…

We introduce fundamental bounds on achievable cumulative rate distribution functions (CRDF) to characterize a sequential encoding process that ensures lossless or lossy reconstruction subject to an average distortion criterion using a…

Motivated by the immutable nature of Ethereum smart contracts and of their transactions, quite many approaches have been proposed to detect defects and security problems before smart contracts become persistent in the blockchain and they…

Communication in the presence of bounded timing asynchronism which is known to the receiver but cannot be easily compensated is studied. Examples of such situations include point-to-point communication over inter-symbol interference (ISI)…

We develop a theoretical framework for defining and identifying flows of information in computational systems. Here, a computational system is assumed to be a directed graph, with "clocked" nodes that send transmissions to each other along…

Effective congestion control for data center networks is becoming increasingly challenging with a growing amount of latency sensitive traffic, much fatter links, and extremely bursty traffic. Widely deployed algorithms, such as DCTCP and…

Semantic- and task-oriented communication has emerged as a promising approach to reducing the latency and bandwidth requirements of next-generation mobile networks by transmitting only the most relevant information needed to complete a…

Unlike the traditional dock-based systems, dockless bike-sharing systems are more convenient for users in terms of flexibility. However, the flexibility of these dockless systems comes at the cost of management and operation complexity.…

The Max-Flow/Min-Cut problem is a fundamental tool in graph theory, with applications in many domains, including data mining, image segmentation, transportation planning, and many types of assignment problems, in addition to being an…

Numerous threats are associated with the globalized integrated circuit (IC) supply chain, such as piracy, reverse engineering, overproduction, and malicious logic insertion. Many obfuscation approaches have been proposed to mitigate these…

In this paper we consider an interacting two-agent sequential decision-making problem consisting of a Markov source process, a causal encoder with feedback, and a causal decoder. Motivated by a desire to foster links between control and…

Over the past two decades, there has been a growing interest in control systems research to transition from model-based methods to data-driven approaches. In this study, we aim to bridge a divide between conventional model-based control and…

In this paper we address the problem of fast and fair transmission of flows in a router, which is a fundamental issue in networks like the Internet. We model the interaction between a TCP source and a bottleneck queue with the objective of…

Novelty detection in text streams is a challenging task that emerges in quite a few different scenarios, ranging from email thread filtering to RSS news feed recommendation on a smartphone. An efficient novelty detection algorithm can save…
