ContagAlert: Using Contagion Theory for Adaptive, Distributed Alert Propagation
Large-scale distributed systems, e.g., Grid or P2P networks, are targets for large-scale attacks. Unfortunately, few existing systems support propagation of alerts during the atta...

Information Theory in Property Testing and Monotonicity Testing in Higher Dimension
In property testing, we are given oracle access to a function f, and we wish to test if the function satisfies a given property P, or it is ε-far from having that property. In a...
