Strong Privacy for RFID Systems from Plaintext-Aware Encryption

he Vaudenay model for RFID privacy from Asiacrypt 2007 suffers from the impossibility to address strong privacy. It has however been shown by Ng et al. at ESORICS 2008 that the impossibility result leads to no practical threat, so that the definition from ...

Urban acceptability of building integrated solar systems: LESO-QSV approach

Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst

The concern for sustainable development issues together with the new EU promotion policies are finally leading to a widespread use of Photovoltaic and Solar Thermal systems in buildings. This upcoming reality is opening a new debate on the urban/architectu ...

Fractional Brownian Models For Vector Field Data

Michaël Unser, Pouya Dehghani Tafti

In this note we introduce a vector generalization of fractional Brownian motion. Our definition takes into account directional properties of vector fields-such as divergence, rotational behaviour, and interactions with coordinate transformations-that have ...

Defect of characters of the symmetric group

Following the work of B. Kulshammer, J. B. Olsson and G. R. Robinson on generalized blocks of the symmetric groups, we give a definition for the l-defect of characters of the symmetric group G(n), where l > 1 is an arbitrary integer. We prove that the l-de ...

Interface free energy or surface tension: definition and basic properties.

Charles Pfister

Interface free energy is the contribution to the free energy of a system due to the presence of an interface separating two coexisting phases at equilibrium. It is also called interfacial free energy or surface tension. The content of the paper is 1) the d ...

Novel methods to pattern polymers for microfluidics

Jürgen Brugger, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Vahid Fakhfouri, Joo Yeon Kim

We present two novel methods for the preparation of arbitrary microscale patterns of polymers on surfaces with pre-defined topography. While photosensitive polymers are used commonly together with optical lithography, the methods presented can be used for ...

Secure Neighborhood Discovery: A Fundamental Element for Mobile Ad Hoc Networking

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Srdan Capkun

Pervasive computing systems will likely be deployed in the near future, with the proliferation of wireless devices and the emergence of ad hoc networking as key enablers. Coping with mobility and the volatility of wireless communications in such systems is ...

Thurston's weak metric on the Teichmüller space of the torus

Marc Troyanov

We define and study a natural weak metric on the Teichmüller space of the torus. A similar metric has been defined by W. Thurston on the Teichmüller space of higher genus surfaces and our definition is motivated by Thurston's definition. However, we shall ...
