"... In PAGE 14: ...2 Efficiency Analysis Suppose an inverse with modulus has the same cost of an exponentiation with the same modulus and e, the RSA public key in the oblivious transfer, is a small integer. In Table1 , the cost of bid validity check with normal method and batch solution respectively are compared. An example is given in the table for this comparison, where w = 1024, |N| = |q| = 1024 and L = 20.... ..."

"... In PAGE 9: ...A alone. Over the entire 100 generations set for the OC-GA, rapid and smooth convergence is found in all the three OC-GA runs. If a more reasonable termination criterion were to be adopted such that the same best-fit design is maintained for 10 consecutive generations, the hybrid OC-GA could have been stopped a lot earlier. As shown in Table2 , the hybrid OC-GA could be, on average, stopped after 53th generation in approximately 6.6 hours of computational time, resulting in only about 86% of the time required for the 100 GA generations.... ..."

"... In PAGE 4: ... This result is due to three main reasons: (i) in UDC it is only necessary to perform a centralized checkpoint of the master process: the slave processes do not need to be checkpointed; (ii) the size of the checkpoint is negligible; (iii) the checkpoint operation is taken by an additional thread at the master processor and this operation does not disturb the normal execution of the computation. Table3 presents a comparison in the checkpoint duration. The first column represents the checkpoint duration of the system-level checkpointing scheme, while the second column represents the user-defined checkpointing mechanism.... ..."
