Static methods are very successful in deriving crucial properties (e.g.timing behaviour) of safety critical systems. Some information in the analysed program are not available either because they cannot be determined statically or because they were intentionally sacrificed (i.e.abstracted) to make program analysis tractable. These...

Only a purposive, orchestral interaction of millions of individual nerve cells within our brains can assure such diverse functions as sensory perception and motor coordination, but also more complex tasks like motivation and memory. One main question in the neural sciences is how these...

Combinatorial auctions are auctions in which each bid can be placed on a set of items, as opposed to standard auctions, in which each bid is placed on a single item. The winner determination problem for combinatorial auctions is known to be NP-complete. One...

Generating good signatures for the current anti-spyware toolkits and deploying them in a timely fashion is a demanding task. Even if the signatures are up-to-date, signature based detection techniques usually suffer from the inability to detect novel and unknown threats. We believe that behavior-based...
