Technical Perspective: Building a Better Hash Function
In "Fast and Powerful Hashing Using Tabulation," Mikkel Thorup describes a variation of simple but surprisingly effective and powerful hash functions based on using small tables of random hash values.
Technical Perspective: Catching Lies (and Mistakes) in Offloaded Computation
The system described in "Pinocchio: Nearly Practical Verifiable Computation" refines an important theoretical advance by Gennaro et al. Together, these two works represent a dramatic improvement in speed, generality, and functionality.
Theory Without Experiments: Have We Gone Too Far?
Seeking a better understanding of computing through a mixture of theory and appropriate experimental evidence.
