Constraint-Level Design of zkEVMs: Architectures, Trade-offs, and Evolution
Yahya Hassanzadeh-Nazarabadi, Sanaz Taheri-Boshrooyeh
Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machines (zkEVMs) face an inherent tension. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) was built for transparent step-by-step execution. Proving that execut…
DHT-based Edge and Fog Computing Systems: Infrastructures and Applications
Yahya Hassanzadeh-Nazarabadi, Sanaz Taheri-Boshrooyeh, Öznur Özkasap
Intending to support new emerging applications with latency requirements below what can be offered by the cloud data centers, the edge and fog computing paradigms have reared. In s…
DHT-based Communications Survey: Architectures and Use Cases
Yahya Hassanzadeh-Nazarabadi, Sanaz Taheri-Boshrooyeh, Safa Otoum +2
Several distributed system paradigms utilize Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) to realize structured peer-to-peer (P2P) overlays. DHT structures arise as the most commonly used organi…
