چکیده
We discuss the di erent ways of de ning channel capacity for certain types of illicit communication channels. We also correct some errors from the literature, o er new proofs of some historical results, and give bounds for channel capacity. Special function techniques are employed to express the results in closed form. We conclude with examples.

Binocular rivalry and multi-stable perception: independence and monocular channels.
When discrepant images are shown to the two eyes, each can intermittently disappear. This is known as binocular rivalry (BR). The causes of BR are debated. One view is that BR is driven by a low-level visual process, characterized by competition between monocular channels. Another is that BR is driven by higher level processes involved in interpreting ambiguous input. This would link BR to othe...
متن کاملAxon Initial Segment Ca2+ Channels Influence Action Potential Generation and Timing
Although action potentials are typically generated in the axon initial segment (AIS), the timing and pattern of action potentials are thought to depend on inward current originating in somatodendritic compartments. Using two-photon imaging, we show that T- and R-type voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels are colocalized with Na(+) channels in the AIS of dorsal cochlear nucleus interneurons and that act...

COMMENTS: As of June 23, 1994 this reprint has corrected a typographical error that occurred on page 59, column 1, line 6 of the proof of Corollary 1.1 in the actual published paper. We have changed the bottom index of the second sum from a 0 to a 1. page 60, column 2, beginning of line 9 should read C T (a;a+d) instead of T (a;a + d). changed index on rst sum on page 58 from t j to j. On page ...
متن کاملPreventing Timing Leaks Through Transactional Branching Instructions
Timing channels constitute one form of covert channels through which programs may be leaking information about the confidential data they manipulate. Such timing channels are typically eliminated by design, employing ad-hoc techniques to avoid information leaks through execution time, or by program transformation techniques, that transform programs that satisfy some form of non-interference pro...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Covert Timing Channels
Covert channels have tmditionally been categorized as either stomge channels or timing channels[6, 71. This paper questions this categorization, and discwses channels that cannot be clearly identified as either stomge or timing channels, but have aspects of both. A new model of timing channels is presented, which allows for channels that have chamcteristics of both stomge channels and timing ch...
