Loosely speaking, an obfuscation O of a function f should satisfy two requirements: firstly, using O, it should be possible to evaluate f; secondly, O should not reveal anything about f that cannot be learnt from oracle access to f alone. Several definitio ...
In this thesis, we focus on Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) ranging and positioning techniques under indoor propagation environments. IR-UWB, a new carrierless communication scheme using impulses, is a candidate technology for future communication, ...
A fast stochastic collocation method for statistically characterizing electromagnetic interference and compatibility (EMI/EMC) phenomena on electrically large and loaded platforms is presented. Uncertainties in electromagnetic excitations and/or system geo ...

The thesis is a contribution to extreme-value statistics, more precisely to the estimation of clustering characteristics of extreme values. One summary measure of the tendency to form groups is the inverse average cluster size. In extreme-value context, th ...
In this paper design options when implementing programmable sampling rate converters are discussed. The theory and performance of the classical and new converters based on maximum order and minimum support (MOMS) splines is presented. FPGA designs are show ...
This paper presents a method enabling the evaluation of the averaging fault-tolerant technique, using the output probability density functions (PDFs) of unreliable units which are acquired from Monte Carlo simulations. The method has been verified by compa ...
This article examines the risk-return trade-off of a mixed-asset portfolio that includes real estate using copula functions. In particular, it analyses the role of direct as opposed to securitised real estate in terms of diversification when the dependence ...
Plasmas, both in the laboratory and in space, are often not in thermodynamic equilibrium, and the plasma electron distribution function is accordingly non-Maxwellian. Suprathermal electron tails can be generated by external drives, such as rf waves and ele ...
The conformation of circular DNA molecules of various lengths adsorbed in a 2D conformation on a mica surface is studied. The results confirm the conjecture that the critical exponent ν is topologically invariant and equal to the self-avoiding walk value ( ...
The tunneling-percolation mechanism of conduction in disordered conductor-insulator composites is studied for a realistic continuum model where conducting and impenetrable spherical particles are dispersed in a three-dimensional continuum insulating materi ...
