We apply autocorrelation and Walsh coefficients for the investigation of correlation immune and resilient Boolean functions. We prove new lower bound for the absolute indicator of resilient functions that improves significantly (for m > (n − 3)/2) the bound of Zheng and Zhang [18] on this value. We prove new upper bound for the number of nonlinear variables in high resilient Boolean function. T...

This thesis presents the notion of computational resiliency to provide reliability in heterogeneous distributed applications. The notion provides both software fault tolerance and the ability to tolerate information warfare (IW) attacks. This technology seeks to strengthen a military mission, rather than protect its network infrastructure using static defense measures such as network security, ...

cities are complex and interdependent systems and they are vulnerable to threats from both natural hazards and terrorism. features that make cities feasible and desirable, the architectural structure, population concentration, places of assembly and interconnected infrastructure, also put them at high risk to natural hazards and terrorist attack. a recent review of worldwide natural hazard loss...

Market liquidity has an important role in trading on stock markets, since on illiquid markets the implicit cost of trading can cause notable losses for the investors. Therefore market participants should always measure the liquidity of the markets, which they can carry out in two ways, in a static and in a dynamic form. The most commonly used liquidity measures – bid-ask spread and the turnover...
