Ronitt Rubinfeld: Local Computation Algorithms
Tuesday, November 1, 2016 - 4:00pm to 5:00pm

Abstract:

Consider a setting in which inputs to and outputs from a computational

Friday, October 28, 2016 - 10:30am to 12:00pm

Abstract: All previous constructions of general multiparty computation protocols that are secure against adaptive corruptions in the concurrent setting either require some form of setup or non-standard assumptions.
