Consider the problem of information disclosure for a planner who faces two agents interacting in a state-dependent multi-action prisoners’dilemma. We …nd conditions under which the planner can make use of his superior information by disclosing some of it to the agents, and conditions under which such information leakage is not possible. Although the problem is entirely symmetric, the planner’s ...

The goal of leakage-resilient cryptography is to construct cryptographic algorithms that are secure even if the adversary obtains side-channel information from the real world implementation of these algorithms. Most of the prior works on leakage-resilient cryptography consider leakage models where the adversary has access to the leakage oracle before the challenge-ciphertext is generated (befor...

There are three major sources of leakage current today, namely the sub-threshold leakage, gate leakage and the reverse biased junction band-to-band-tunneling leakage. These currents depend on the logic state of a CMOS circuit as determined by input pattern. Consequently, there exists a pattern that will produce the highest leakage current. Previously, researchers have investigated the problem o...

This paper contributes to the recent literature on the Green Paradox (Hoel, 2011 and Harstad, 2012) that distinguishes between regulated and unregulated regions in a Hotelling framework. In our model, different grades of oil are characterized by different costs, emission factors, and underground reserves; furthermore, the clean backstop experiences cost-reducing technical change. As a result, e...

introduction: the aim of this descriptive cross-sectional study was to assess the general dental practitioners (gdps)’s knowledge regarding the emergency management of traumatic dental injuries (tdi) in isfahan, iran. methods and materials: in this study a two-part questionnaire consisting of 14 questions was distributed among 241 gdps. part 1 included seven questions focusing on personal and p...

background: one ideal property of a root-end fi lling material is its apical sealing ability. the aim of this in vitro study was to assess bacterial and dye microleakage of white and gray mineral trioxide aggregate (wmta and gmta), portland cement and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement used as root-end fi lling material, and to assess the agreement between these two test methods. materials a...

in this study, we examined the role of early acetazolamide administration in reducing the risk of cerebrospinal fluid (csf) leakage in patients with a high risk of permanent csf leakage. in a randomised clinical trial, 57 patients with a high risk of permanent csf leakage (rhinorrhea, otorrhea, pneumatocele or imaging-based evidence of severe skull-base fracture) were analysed. in the experimen...

abstract the grasses cold tolerance is the most important limiting factor for its cultivation in temperate regions, so using cold tolerant cultivars is essential for grasses successful cultivation. in order to evaluation freezing stress tolerance of several species of grasses, this study was conducted in agricultural faculty of ferdowsi university of mashhad as a factorial complete randomized b...
