Owners of data centers are contractually obligated to provide high-availability service to their customers in the presence of ubiquitous hardware failures. Studies have indicated that co-occurring component failure is a ...

The epidemics of diabetes and obesity, along with unhealthy and stressful lifestyles, have highly contributed to the increased number of patients with heart failure in recent times. As the saying goes, “Prevention is ...

Tactile displays have the potential to dramatically increase immersion and presence for users in Virtual Reality (VR) applications. For consumer VR systems, there is a need to increase the quality and fidelity of tactile ...

Concurrent algorithms have gained importance as multi-core machines have become more ubiquitous. Several techniques are employed to enable the construction of such algorithms. We present algorithms for the Group Mutual ...

We present an algorithm to compute the global minimum cut in a restricted class of directed surface-embedded graphs with fixed genus. Specifically, we assume no cycles dual to the minimum cut cross any shortest path more ...

AI agents must work in alliance with the humans, be it in mundane activities or in critical and strategic tasks to realize their full potential. This is crucial to envisage the objective of developing intelligent agents ...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a science or technology by virtue of which machines inculcate human intelligence by implementing intelligent algorithms. This research study could be generalized as an application understanding ...

Cybersecurity has increasingly become important in many parts of our society. Nonetheless, cyberattacks continue to occur, which sometimes are reported to lead to undesirable consequences, such as financial loss, stolen ...

Data analysis plays an important role in making decisions, making predictions, and helping business operate. Unfortunately, in many situations the data is not reliable and robust analysis is needed to obtain stable ...

This dissertation presents a series of new technologies that significantly bridge the gap between theory and practice of software hijacking defenses based on control-flow integrity (CFI) and in-lined reference monitors ...
