- LEDS: Providing Location-Aware End-to-End Data Security in Wireless Sensor Networks
- Providing end-to-end data security, i.e., data confidentiality, authenticity, and availability, in Wireless Sensor Networks WSNs is a non-trivial task. In addition to the large number and severe resource constraint of sensor nodes, a particular challenge comes from potential insider attacks due to possible node compromise, since a WSN is usually...

- An Information-Theoretical View of Network-Aware Malware Attacks
- This paper investigates three aspects: a network vulnerability as the non-uniform vulnerable-host distribution, threats, i.e., intelligent malwares that exploit such a vulnerability, and defense, i.e., challenges for fighting the threats. They first study five large data sets and observe consistent clustered vulnerable-host distributions. They then present a new metric, referred...

- Structure-Aware XML Object Identification
- The object identification problem is particularly difficult for XML data, due to its structural flexibility. Tree edit distances have been used to perform approximate comparisons among XML trees. However, such distances ignore the semantics implicit in element labels and nesting relationships of XML data. Furthermore, the use of tree edit...

- Value-Aware RoXSum: Effective Message Aggregation for XML-Aware Information Dissemination
- Publish/subscribe (or pub/sub) systems perform asynchronous message transmission, from publishers to subscribers, without any of the parties having knowledge of the other. The pub/sub infrastructure manages the delivery of the messages, which is guided by user subscriptions that specify the type of information the subscribers are interested in. Since XML...

- Energy-Aware Microprocessor Synchronization: Transactional Memory Vs. Locks
- One important way in which multiprocessors differ from uniprocessors is in the need to provide programmers the ability to synchronize concurrent access to memory. Transactional memory was proposed as a way of improving throughput especially when the rate of synchronization conflict is low. This paper explores power implications of transactional...

- On Scalability of Proximity-Aware Peer-to-Peer Streaming
- P2P (Peer-to-Peer) technology has proved itself an efficient and cost-effective solution to support large-scale multimedia streaming. Different from traditional P2P applications, the quality of P2P streaming is strictly determined by performance metrics such as streaming delay. To meet these requirements, previous studies resorted to intuitions and heuristics to construct peer...
