Multilateral Negotiation in Boolean Games with Incomplete Information Using Generalized Possibilistic Logic

Boolean games are a game-theoretic framework in which propositional logic is used to describe agents’ goals. In this paper we investigate how agents in Boolean games can reach an efficient and fair outcome through a simple negotiation protocol. We are particularly interested in settings where agents only have incomplete knowledge about the preferences of others. After explaining how generalized...

Multilateral White-Box Cryptanalysis

Security requirement of White-Box Cryptography (WBC) is that it should protect secret key from white-box security model permits an adversary who is able to entirely control execution of the cryptographic algorithm and its environment. It has already been demonstrated that most of the primitive is vulnerable to algebraic attacks in the white-box security perspective. In recently, a new Different...

Communication in multilateral bargaining

One of the most robust phenomena in the experimental literature on multilateral bargaining is the failure of proposers to extract equilibrium rents. However, all previous experiments have overlooked the fact that outside the lab committee members are allowed to and do engage in sometimes intense communication processes prior to voting on a proposal. We conduct an experimental test of the Baron-...

Multilateral Security 9.1 Introduction

Often our goal is not to prevent information flowing ‘down’ a hierarchy but to prevent it flowing ‘across’ between departments. Relevant applications range from healthcare to national intelligence, and include most applications where the privacy of individual customers’, citizens’ or patients’ data is at stake. They account for a significant proportion of information processing systems but thei...
