I quickly wrote a short note pointing this out and correcting the algorithm. It didn’t take me long to realize that an algorithm for totally ordering events could be used to implement any distributed ...

In contrast, the two distributed algorithms, DSA and DPGS, exploit local information at each server during their search for the optimal assignment, and thus can scale well with the number of users and ...

Computational Private Information Retrieval (cPIR) protocols allow a client to retrieve one bit from a database, without the server inferring any information about the queried bit. These protocols are ...
