CCN-KRS: A Key Resolution Service for CCN
Abstract One key feature of the CCN design is the requirement for each content object to be individually secured by its producer. Thus, CCN should be, in principle, immune to distributing fake content. However, in practice, the network cannot easily detect and drop fake content as the trust context, i.e., what public key(s) is/are trusted…

Promising Step in Psoriasis Drug Development: Small Molecules That Fight Inflammatory and Autoimmune Diseases
Recently, researchers in SRI Biosciences’ Center for Immunology and Infectious Diseases, in collaboration with colleagues at UK-based Sareum Ltd., a drug discovery company, identified a small molecule that looks like a promising therapy for psoriasis, an autoimmune disease of the skin affecting approximately two percent of the population. Symptoms of the condition often include painful, itching…

The Business of Biometrics: Practical Applications in the Enterprise
Biometrics—including fingerprint, face, iris, and voice—is a highly accurate and reliable method of identity authentication. Its use is becoming mainstream with personal applications such as smartphone access. When it comes to physical security, however, some people think that biometrics should be reserved for limited access facilities such as government buildings, data centers, or research labs.…

Video Object Co-Segmentation by Regulated Maximum Weight Cliques
In this paper, we propose a novel approach for object cosegmentation in arbitrary videos by sampling, tracking and matching object proposals via a Regulated Maximum Weight Clique (RMWC) extraction scheme.
