In 2003, Boyd and Mao proposed two deniable authenticated key establishment protocols using elliptic curve pairings for Internet protocols, one is based on Diffie-Hellman key exchange and the other is based on Public-Key Encryption approach. For the use of elliptic curve pairings, they declared that their schemes could be more efficient than the existing Internet Key Exchange (IKE), nowadays. H...

At the previous OSDI, Silas Boyd-Wickizer presented Corey, a new many-core operating system motivated by the premise that traditional OS design, as represented by Linux, faced fundamental limitations to scalability. This talk, also given by Boyd-Wickizer, refutes that premise. It does so by selecting several real applications with good parallel implementations that demonstrate kernel-based scal...

An elevated level of phospholipids has been observed during the first half of pregnancy in sows (Bloor, Okey & Corner, 1930; Boyd & Eldon, 1935) and in rabbits (Morin, 1968), while guinea-pig ovaries were reported to contain 12\m=.\5mg phospholipids per g of tissue, and this level was maintained constant throughout early, midand late pregnancy (Boyd, 1935). No other report on guinea-pigs, givin...

The Harris-Boyd method, recommended for partitioning biochemical reference data into subgroups by the NCCLS, and a recently proposed new method for partitioning were compared in three case studies concerning stratification by countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden) of reference data collected in the Nordic Reference Interval Project (NORIP) for the enzymes alkaline phosphatase (ALP), c...

DESIGN OF A COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE FOR A VERY HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTER by Jesse Boyd Zydallis PetaFLOPS computing power is the newest goal of Federal Government agencies, in the increasingly active supercomputer field. To obtain this performance goal by the year 2007, sophisticated parallel processing designs are required. To effectively create network interfaces/routers for interprocessor c...

Shih has objected to the semiclassical explanation for lensless pseudothermal ghost imaging—whose measurement configuration is shown schematically in Fig. 8 of [1]—that is reviewed by Shapiro and Boyd. In Shih’s view, the only valid explanation for lensless pseudothermal ghost imaging is nonlocal two-photon interference, i.e., a purely quantum phenomenon. Shapiro and Boyd also develop that expl...
