ABSTRACT
The Bloom filter, conceived by Burton H. Bloom in 1970, is a
space-efficient probabilistic data structure that is used to test
whether an element is a member of a set. False positives are possible,
but false negatives are not. Elements can be added to the set, but not
removed (though this can be addressed with a counting filter). The
more elements tha...

ABSTRACT
Existing systems often do a poor job of meeting the principle of least privilege. I will discuss how object capability systems and language-based methods can help address this shortcoming. In language-based object capability systems, an object reference is treated as a capability; unforgeability of references ensures unforgeability of capabilities; an...

ABSTRACT
Cryptography is now much more than keeping credit card numbers safe from packet sniffers and laptop thieves. We combine several advances in cryptography theory to construct a model of computation in which a third party securely performs computations for a set of parties who do not trust one another. These parties encrypt their inputs to a computation, th...

The Internet economy depends on a reliable computing infrastructure. While earlier reports of information technology using vast amounts all electricity were grossly exaggerated, these facilities still use electricity, and this use is growing rapidly. Recent analysis indicates that data center electricity use in both the US and the world roughly doubled from 200...
