Abstract:

Availability has become a primary goal of information security and is as significant as other goals, in particular, confidentiality and integrity. Maintaining availability of essential services on the public Internet is an increasingly difficult task in the presence of sophisticated attackers. Attackers may abuse limited computational resources of a service provider and thus managing computational costs is a key strategy for achieving the goal of availability. In this thesis we focus on cryptographic approaches for managing computational costs, in particular computational effort. We focus on t

Abstract:

Resource sharing is a common collaborative strategy used in practice. It has the potential to create synergistic value and leads to higher system efficiency. However, realizing this synergistic value can be challenging given the prevalence of decentralization in practice, where individual operators manage resources based on their own benefits. Hence, optimizing a decentralized system requires understanding not only the optimal operational strategy in terms of the overall system efficiency, but also the implementation of the strategy through proper management of individual incentives. However,

Abstract:

Internet and communication technologies have lowered the costs for communities to collaborate, leading to new services like user-generated content and social computing, and through collaboration, collectively built infrastructures like community networks have also emerged. While community networks focus solely on sharing of network bandwidth, community network clouds extend this sharing to provide for applications of local interest deployed within community networks through collaborative efforts to provision cloud infrastructures. Community network clouds complement the traditional large-scale

Abstract:

<p> Nutritional iron acquisition by bacteria is well described, but almost nothing is known about bacterial iron export. Here, we show that <i> Bradyrhizobium japonicum</i> MbfA (Blr7895) is an inner membrane protein expressed in cells specifically under high iron conditions. An mbfA deletion mutant is severely defective in iron export activity, contains >2-fold more intracellular iron than the parent strain, and displays an aberrant iron-dependent gene expression phenotype. The findings suggest that iron export plays an important role in bacterial iron homeostasis, and MbfA is responsible for
