On Counteracting Byzantine Attacks in Network Coded Peer-to-Peer Networks [PDF]
, 2009 Random linear network coding can be used in peer-to-peer networks to increase the efficiency of content distribution and distributed storage. However, these systems are particularly susceptible to Byzantine attacks. We quantify the impact of Byzantine attacks on the coded system by evaluating the probability that a receiver node fails to correctly ...

Dating an ancient spring tunnel using archaeological artefacts functioning as nuclei of cave pearls
Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Cave pearls are spherical concentric speleothems growing radially around nuclei in shallow pools saturated with calcite. They are very rare in the Southern Levant. We present a unique assemblage of 50 cave pearls found in the Iron Age Joweizeh artificial spring tunnel in the Jerusalem Hills of Israel. Some of these deposits represent the first

Prerequisites for a computational approach to Minoan chronology
Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract The paper examines the development, adoption, and limitations of the relative chronology system for Minoan pottery, initially established by Sir Arthur Evans and Duncan Mackenzie during the excavation of Knossos (1900–1906). Despite its weaknesses, this system remained largely unchanged due to its convenience rather than its accuracy.

An Information-theoretical Secured Byzantine-fault Tolerance Consensus in Quantum Key Distribution Network [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Quantum key distribution (QKD) networks is expected to provide information-theoretical secured (ITS) communication over long distances. QKD networks based trusted relay architecture are now the most widely used scheme in practice. However, it is an unrealistic assumption that all relays are fully trustable in complex networks.
