or Introduction Details of a planning study for USAF computer security requirements are presented. An Advanced development and Engineering program to obtain an open-use, multilevel secure computing capability is described. Plans are also presented for the related developments of communications security products and the interim solution to present secure computing problems. Finally a Exploratory...

Private information retrieval (PIR) schemes enable a user to access one or more servers that hold copies of a database and privately retrieve parts of the n bits of data stored in the database. This means that the queries give each individual database no partial information (in the information theoretic or computational sense) on the identity of the item retrieved by the user. All known PIR sch...

Keyword advertising, or “sponsored links” that appear alongside online search results or other online content, has grown into a multibillion-dollar market. Providers of keyword advertising, such as Google and Yahoo, profit by auctioning keywords to advertisers. An issue of increasing importance for advertising providers is the “share structure” problem—that is, of the total available resources ...

In this paper we introduce a minimalist hypothesis for keywords extraction: keywords can be extracted from text documents by considering concepts underlying document terms. Furthermore, central concepts are individuated as the concepts that are more related to title concepts. Namely, we propose five metrics, that are diverse in essence, to compute the centrality of concepts in the document body...

•Extending our previous work on visual keywords, we use the concept of template-based visual keywords using MPEG-7 color descriptors. MPEG-7, also called the Multimedia Content Description Interface, has been a standard for many years. These color descriptors have the ability to characterize perceptual color similarity and need relatively low complexity operations to extract them, besides being...

We report on two types of experiments with respect to manually-assigned keywords to documents in a collection. The first type of experiment examines the usefulness of manually-assigned keywords to automatic feedback. The second type of experiment considers the potential benefits of these keywords to the user as an interactive tool. Several experiments were run and compared. The results of these...

volar lunate dislocation is the fourth and last stage of perilunate dislocation. it is an uncommon injury of the wrist and its bilateral occurrence is so rare that only one case has been reported in the literature. we are presenting the second case of this kind of wrist injury, its treatment and outcome. keywords : lunate bone, perilunate, volar plate, bilateral, dislocation.
