Communication Efficient Secret Sharing
A secret sharing scheme is a method for distributing a secret among several parties in such a way that only qualified subsets of the parties can reconstruct it and unqualified subsets receive no information about the secret. The key idea to reduce communication is to let the user to download from more (than the necessary number of) parties. For this...

Spin XOR Gate in Ferromagnet-Nonmagnet Heterostructures
Current data search devices rely on complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. Although CMOS has long been the gold standard, it is limited by the number of words that can be used. Researchers at University at Buffalo have developed a device capable of combining non-volatile memory with spin based-processing to dramatically increase...

Polar Coding for Noisy Write-Once Memories (Cal Tech lead)
Write-once memory is a model for data-storage devices, where a set of binary cells are used to store data, and the cell levels can only increase when the data is rewritten. The WOM model was recently identified as a good model for flash memories, where rewriting delays expensive block erasures and by that leads to better preservation of cell quality...

Investigation of Size Effect and Domain Walls on Magnetoresistance in Magnetic Nanocontacts
As our data storage devices get smaller, the magnetic sensors used to write and store the data must become more sensitive. The sensors require a higher degree of sensitivity because as the magnetic zones, or storage zones, of a storage disk become smaller and closer together, it becomes harder to distinguish different zones. Researchers at University...
