Virus propagation with randomness

Propagation of partial randomness

Let f be a computable function from finite sequences of 0’s and 1’s to real numbers. We prove that strong f -randomness implies strong f randomness relative to a PA-degree. We also prove: if X is strongly f -random and Turing reducible to Y where Y is Martin-Löf random relative to Z, then X is strongly f -random relative to Z. In addition, we prove analogous propagation results for other notion...

Propagation of uncertainty involving imprecision and randomness

This paper presents a non exhaustive list of different methods of uncertainty propagation when the knowledge of some parameters of physical models is represented by probability measures, and others by possibility measures or belief functions.

Understanding the Impact of Pseudo Randomness on Internet Worm Propagation

Recent research has shown that worms continue to remain among the significant infectors of the Internet [1]. Our understanding of worms’ propagation and malicious potential must keep in pace with their rapid evolution. In this paper, we point out a fundamental flaw in the past worm analysis — ignoring the importance of pseudo randomness employed in the worm code. The impact of pseudo randomness...

Modeling plant virus propagation with delays

Plants are essential for the survival of many species including man. Unfortunately there are many viruses that cause diseases to both crops and wild plants. In humans and animals, virus propagation can happen by direct contact or through a vector. But in plants, virus propagation can only happen through a vector, usually insects and in particular beetles. After biting an infected plant, the vir...
