The geological records of ancient environmental changes provide crucial archives for testing models of Earth system behavior including those used to project ongoing and future global change Yet the archives pose many statistical challenges The data sources are noisy diverse and full of gaps The locations and ages of observations

Information theoretic security has emerged as a promising new approach for achieving secure network communications at various protocol layers In particular it holds promise for wireless networks that have little or no infrastructure possess limited computational resources and are subject to dynamically changing environments In recent years this topic has

The last few years have seen an explosion of results concerning differential privacy across many distinct but overlapping communities Theoretical Computer Science Databases Programming Languages Machine Learning Data Mining Security and Cryptography Each of these different areas has different priorities and techniques and despite very similar interests motivations and choice

This one day workshop is designed for researchers who aspire to participate in NSF s Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace SaTC program The workshop is by invitation only and is open to people with research interests in secure and trustworthy computing who are not currently funded by SaTC or any of

The constantly increasing volume of electronic interactions and sensitive information disseminated online raises privacy concerns and motivates the need for efficient privacy oriented techniques The aim of this Privacy Oriented Cryptography seminar was to bring together mainly but not only researchers working in different domains of cryptography and privacy Although

Transportation networks are vulnerable to disruptions from natural disasters and terrorist attacks. Due to the size and complexity of these networks, a quantitative method to identify the most vulnerable links

I will talk about random walks, and the important role they play in the natural and man-made algorithms all around us.

The output from numerical simulations and modern experiments consists of large data sets that contain errors ranging from small to large . This raises the question of how to determine

One of the transitions from random graph models given by Erdos and Renyi to the models that may describe real processes in a more realistic manner is the model of

In the MapReduce framework, originally proposed by Google, and its open source implementation, Hadoop, the computation is performed over a set of key,value pairs and consists of a map stage,

Graph based methods have become essential for analyzing many different types of networks including wireless optical and social networks In the last decade these mathematical methods have been expanded and developed considerably In the wireless realm for example stochastic geometry and the theory of random geometric graphs have emerged as

Software is critical for all branches of science and engineering and is a key component of the emerging global cyberinfrastructure At the same time science and engineering are becoming more collaborative With few exceptions multi investigator teams with a diversity of expertise are now required to efficiently attack increasingly complex

Cloud computing is rapidly becoming the predominant model for the delivery and consumption of IT resources Significant effort from both the academic research community and industry has been devoted to creating new systems and networking technologies to better support the various forms of Cloud computing today Infrastructure Software or Platform

The goals of the workshop are to discuss research directions and challenges in power energy and temperature management for high performance computing HPC systems identify opportunities for collaborations between some of the key research groups in this area and develop a research agenda for the future The workshop will involve
