Condense to Conduct and Conduct to Condense
In this paper we give the first examples of low-conductance permutations. The notion of conductance of permutations was introduced in the paper "Indifferentiability of Confusion-Diffusion Networks" by Dodis et al., where the search for low-conductance permutations was initiated and motivated. In this paper we not only give the desired examples, but also make a general characterization of the problem -- i.e. we show that low-conductance permutations are equivalent to permutations that have the i…

hope this will lead to lots of garages and driveways being eliminated!

sp_infectious: Art exhibit dynamic contacts (2011)
This dataset contains the daily dynamic contact networks collected during the Infectious SocioPatterns event that took place at the Science Gallery in Dublin, Ireland, during the artscience exhibition INFECTIOUS: STAY AWAY. Each file in the downloadable package contains a tab-separated list representing the active contacts during 20-second intervals of one day of data collection. Each line has the form “t i j“, where i and j are the a…
