A , (m  ) n threshold secret sharing scheme is a method for distributing a secret amongst a group of participants. In a , (m  ) n threshold secret sharing scheme any m participants recover the secret, but no ) 1 (  m participants can [6]. Each of participants is allocated a share of the secret. The secret can only be reconstructed when the shares are combined together [2]. In this paper, we ...

We first explain the notion of secret sharing and also threshold schemes, which can be implemented with the Shamir’s secret sharing. Subsequently, we review social secret sharing [6,10] and its trust function. In a secret sharing scheme, a secret is shared among a group of players who can later recover the secret. We review the construction of a social secret sharing scheme and its application ...

Big Data and Internet of Things will increase the amount of data on asset management exceedingly. Data sharing with an increased number of partners in the area of asset management is important when developing business opportunities and new ecosystems. An asset management ecosystem is a complex set of relationships between parties taking part in asset management actions. In this paper, the curre...

A (t, n)-threshold secret sharing scheme is a method to distribute a secret among n participants in such a way that any t participants can recover the secret, but no t − 1 participants can. In this paper, we propose two secret sharing schemes using non-abelian groups. One scheme is the special case where all the participants must get together to recover the secret. The other one is a (t, n)-thr...

This paper proposes a new adaptive instantaneous average current sharing technique for load and minimizing circulating among parallel-connected converters in LV islanded DC microgrid. control is common parallel inverters AC systems, however, its use networks has not been reported the open literature. Unfortunately, conventional controller does come up with expected improvements terms of regulat...

This study aimed to investigate the association between organizational agility and knowledge sharing process in the Iran's Central Plateau Contractor Company (ICPCC). For this purpose, one main hypothesis and three subsidiary hypotheses were formulated to assess the relation between organizational agility parameters, leadership and shared identity, strong strategy, and adaptable organizational ...

Current approaches to supporting real-time communication allocate network resources either to individual connections, or to aggregates of connections. Resource sharing is a new approach that exploits known relationships between related connections to allow network resources to be shared between them without sacriic-ing well-deened guarantees. We present a fully distributed technique for using r...

The incorporation of data sharing into the research lifecycle is an important part of modern scholarly debate. In this study, the DataONE Usability and Assessment working group addresses two primary goals: To examine the current state of data sharing and reuse perceptions and practices among research scientists as they compare to the 2009/2010 baseline study, and to examine differences in pract...
