As evermore applications are designed to run inside browsers and other JavaScript runtime systems, there is an increasing need for cryptographic primitives that can be used client-side. Unfortunately, implementing cryptographic primitives securely in high-level languages is extremely difficult—runtime system components such as garbage collectors and just-intime compilers can trivially introduce...

We generalize Cuckoo Hashing 23] to d-ary Cuckoo Hashing and show how this yields a simple hash table data structure that stores n elements in (1 +) n memory cells, for any constant > 0. Assuming uniform hashing, accessing or deleting table entries takes at most d = O(ln 1) probes and the expected amortized insertion time is constant. This is the rst dictionary that has worst case constant acce...

The constant speedup theorem, so well known from Tur-ing machine based complexity theory, is shown false for a natural imperative programming language I that manipulates tree-structured data. This relieves a tension between general programming practice, where linear factors are essential, and complexity theory, where linear time changes are traditionally regarded as trivial. Speciically, there ...

Several practical inductive logic programming systems eeciently learn \determinate" clauses of constant depth. Recently it has been shown that while nonrecursive constant-depth determi-nate clauses are pac-learnable, most of the obvious syntactic generalizations of this language are not pac-learnable. In this paper we introduce a new restriction on logic programs called \locality", and present ...

Several practical inductive logic programming systems efficiently learn “determinate” clauses of constant depth. Recently it has been shown that while nonrecursive constant-depth determinate clauses are pat-learnable, most of the obvious syntactic generalizations of this language are not pat-learnable. In this paper we introduce a new restriction on logic programs called “locality”, and present...

Evidence is presented of an endogenous rhythm in flowering response to far-red (FR) irradiation, with a period of about 12 h (hence semidian rhythm), which persists through at least three cycles in constant conditions of continuous light at 27 degrees C and has a marked influence on the flowering response in Pharbitis nil to a subsequent inductive dark period. The phase of the rhythm is not inf...

Inductive power transfer (IPT) is an attractive wireless charging option in many applications such as electric vehicle biomedical devices and consumer electronics, etc. Constant current constant voltage (CC-CV) profile widely used for due to affecting the life reliability of Li-ion battery. However, IPT systems that can achieve both CC CV modes with soft switching are not well studied. This pap...

We prove that all planar Laman graphs (i.e. minimally generically rigid graphs with a non-crossing planar embedding) can be generated from a single edge by a sequence of vertex splits. It has been shown recently [6,12] that a graph has a pointed pseudo-triangular embedding if and only if it is a planar Laman graph. Due to this connection, our result gives a new tool for attacking problems in th...

A pattern is a string of constant symbols and variables. The language de ned by a pattern p is the set of constant strings obtained from p by substituting nonempty constant strings for variables in p. In this paper we are concerning with polynomial time inference from positive data of the class of unions of a bounded number of pattern languages. We introduce a syntactic notion of minimal multip...
