An information-theoretic and game-theoretic study of timing channels
This paper focuses on jammed timing channels. Pure delay jammers with a maximum delay constraint, an average delay constraint, or a maximum buffer size constraint are explored, for continuous-time or discrete-time packet waveforms. Fluid waveform approximations of each of these classes of waveforms are employed to aid in analysis. Channel capacity is defined and an information-theoretic game ba...
متن کاملAn Information Theoretic Study of Timing Side Channels in Two-user Schedulers
Timing side channels in two-user schedulers are studied. When two users share a scheduler, one user may learn the other user’s behavior from patterns of service timings. We measure the information leakage of the resulting timing side channel in schedulers serving a legitimate user and a malicious attacker, using a privacy metric defined as the Shannon equivocation of the user’s job density. We ...
متن کاملSecret-Key Generation in Many-to-One Networks: An Integrated Game-Theoretic and Information-Theoretic Approach
Abstract This paper considers secret-key generation between several agents and a base station that observe independent and identically distributed realizations of correlated random variables. Each agent wishes to generate the longest possible individual key with the base station by means of public communication. All keys must be jointly kept secret from all external entities. Also each agent ha...
متن کاملFading Channels: Information-Theoretic and Communication Aspects
In this paper we review the most peculiar and interesting information-theoretic and communications features of fading channels. We first describe the statistical models of fading channels which are frequently used in the analysis and design of communication systems. Next, we focus on the information theory of fading channels, by emphasizing capacity as the most important performance measure. Bo...
متن کاملInformation Theoretic Representations of Qubit Channels
A set of qubit channels has a classical representation when it is isomorphic to the convex closure of a group of classical channels. From Crowder and Martin (Proceedings of Quantum Physics and Logic, Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2009), we know that up to isomorphism there are five such sets, each corresponding to either a subgroup of the alternating group on four letters, o...
