Secret sharing is a cryptographic discipline in which the goal is to distribute information about a secret over a set of participants in such a way that only specific authorized combinations of participants together can reconstruct the secret. Thus, secret sharing schemes are systems of variables in which it is very clearly specified which subsets have information about the secret. As such, the...

the present paper aimed at developing an approach based on fuzzy inference system (fis) for measuring of knowledge sharing in the organization. in recent years there has been increasing interest in the knowledge sharing by experts and managers in the world, according to increasing importance of knowledge as the key source of competitive advantage, organizations have made serious effort to find ...

An n-player (t, δ)-secure robust secret sharing scheme is a (t, n)-threshold secret sharing scheme with the additional property that the secret can be recovered, with probability at least 1− δ, from the set of all shares even if up to t players provide incorrect shares. The existing constructions of robust secret sharing schemes for the range n/3 ≤ t < n/2 have the share size larger than the se...

We discuss the requirements for community information sharing. We then propose the weak information structures to integrate heterogeneous information such as static information (e.g. local sites information) and dynamic information created in word-of-mouth communication. The weak information structures connect various information media without de ning the semantics rigorously. By leaving the in...
