Blockchain is a disruptive technology that has been used to address wide range of challenges in diverse domains including voting, logistics, healthcare and finance. Transaction malleability one the critical threats for blockchain, which can facilitate double-spending attacks by tampering with state blockchain. This paper investigates potential transaction attack within blockchain-based applicat...

In this paper we consider commitment schemes that are secure against concurrent poly-time man-in-the-middle (cMiM) attacks. Under such attacks, two possible notions of security for commitment schemes have been proposed in the literature: concurrent nonmalleability with respect to commitment and concurrent non-malleability with respect to decommitment (i.e., opening). After the original notion o...

In recent years, the skyline query paradigm has been established as a reliable method for database query personalization. While early efficiency problems have been solved by sophisticated algorithms and advanced indexing, new challenges in skyline retrieval effectiveness continuously arise. Especially, the rise of the Semantic Web and linked open data leads to personalization issues where skyli...

Process malleability has proved to have a highly positive impact on the resource utilization and global productivity in data centers compared with conventional static allocation policy. However, non-negligible additional development effort this solution imposes constrained its adoption by scientific programming community. In work, we present DMRlib, library designed offer advantages of process ...

The position that Stokes’s Thinking and Perceiving aims to overthrow is committed the idea facts about one’s propositional attitudes perceptual experiences are alike grounded in representations (in various formats) being held a short or long term memory store, so computations can be performed upon them. Claims modularity claims distinctness of these stores, representations. One way which reject...

CONCLUSION: We could achieve complete bone healing and premorbid occlusion using microplates. The microplates are strong enough to keep comminuted mandibular fractures reduced. Their small size and malleability allow multiple fixation of comminuted bony segments in accurate-anatomical position, less periosteal stripping and self-occlusal adjustment. Therefore, microplate fixation may be one of ...
