Privacy Preserving Data Mining

by Yehuda Lindell, Benny Pinkas - JOURNAL OF CRYPTOLOGY , 2000
"... In this paper we address the issue of privacy preserving data mining. Specifically, we consider a scenario in which two parties owning confidential databases wish to run a data mining algorithm on the union of their databases, without revealing any unnecessary information. Our work is motivated b ..."

The sources and consequences of embeddedness for the economic performance of organizations: The network effect

by Brian Uzzi - American Sociological Review , 1996
"... In this paper, I attempt to advance the concept of embeddedness beyond the level of a programmatic statement by developing a formulation that specifies how embeddedness and network structure affect economic action. On the basis of existing theory and original ethnographies of 23 apparel firms, I dev ..."

How to leak a secret

by Ronald L. Rivest, Adi Shamir, Yael Tauman - PROCEEDINGS OF THE 7TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON THE THEORY AND APPLICATION OF CRYPTOLOGY AND INFORMATION SECURITY: ADVANCES IN CRYPTOLOGY , 2001
"... In this paper we formalize the notion of a ring signature, which makes it possible to specify a set of possible signers without revealing which member actually produced the signature. Unlike group signatures, ring signatures have no group managers, no setup procedures, no revocation procedures, and ..."

Strategy-Proofness and Arrow’s Conditions: Existence and Correspondence Theorems for Voting Procedures and Social Welfare Functions

by Mark Allen Satterthwaite - J. Econ. Theory , 1975
"... Consider a committee which must select one alternative from a set of three or more alternatives. Committee members each cast a ballot which the voting procedure counts. The voting procedure is strategy-proof if it always induces every committee member to cast a ballot revealing his preference. I pro ..."

ℓ-diversity: Privacy beyond k-anonymity

by Ashwin Machanavajjhala, Daniel Kifer, Johannes Gehrke, Muthuramakrishnan Venkitasubramaniam - IN ICDE , 2006
"... Publishing data about individuals without revealing sensitive information about them is an important problem. In recent years, a new definition of privacy called k-anonymity has gained popularity. In a k-anonymized dataset, each record is indistinguishable from at least k − 1 other records with resp ..."

LogP: Towards a Realistic Model of Parallel Computation

by David Culler , Richard Karp , David Patterson, Abhijit Sahay, Klaus Erik Schauser, Eunice Santos, Ramesh Subramonian, Thorsten von Eicken , 1993
"... A vast body of theoretical research has focused either on overly simplistic models of parallel computation, notably the PRAM, or overly specific models that have few representatives in the real world. Both kinds of models encourage exploitation of formal loopholes, rather than rewarding developme ..."

development of techniques that yield performance across a range of current and future parallel machines. This paper offers a new parallel machine model, called LogP, that reflects the critical technology trends underlying parallel computers. It is intended to serve as a basis for developing fast, portable

Parallel Networks that Learn to Pronounce English Text

by Terrence J. Sejnowski, Charles R. Rosenberg - COMPLEX SYSTEMS , 1987
"... This paper describes NETtalk, a class of massively-parallel network systems that learn to convert English text to speech. The memory representations for pronunciations are learned by practice and are shared among many processing units. The performance of NETtalk has some similarities with observed h ..."

Network information flow

by Rudolf Ahlswede, Ning Cai, Shuo-Yen Robert Li, Raymond W. Yeung - IEEE TRANS. INFORM. THEORY , 2000
"... We introduce a new class of problems called network information flow which is inspired by computer network applications. Consider a point-to-point communication network on which a number of information sources are to be mulitcast to certain sets of destinations. We assume that the information source ..."

sources are mutually independent. The problem is to characterize the admissible coding rate region. This model subsumes all previously studied models along the same line. In this paper, we study the problem with one information source, and we have obtained a simple characterization of the admissible

Wide-area Internet traffic patterns and characteristics

by Kevin Thompson, Gregory J. Miller, Rick Wilder - IEEE NETWORK , 1997
"... The Internet is rapidly growing in number of users, traffic levels, and topological complexity. At the same time it is increasingly driven by economic competition. These developments render the characterization of network usage and workloads more difficult, and yet more critical. Few recent studies ..."

within the NSF-sponsored vBNS. This paper presents observations on the patterns and characteristics of wide-area Internet traffic, as recorded by MCI’s OC-3 traffic monitors. We report on measurements from two OC-3 trunks in MCI’s commercial Internet backbone over two time ranges (24-hour and 7-day

An almost ideal demand system.

by Angus Deaton , John Muellbauer - American Economic Review, , 1980
"... Ever since Richard Stone (1954) first estimated a system of demand equations derived explicitly from consumer theory, there has been a continuing search for alternative specifications and functional forms. Many models have been proposed, but perhaps the most important in current use, apart from the ..."

In Section II, the model is estimated on postwar British data and we use our results to test the homogeneity
