Homepage of Zinaida Benenson at Uppsala University
This is my old homepage that I used while visiting the
Communications Research group (CoRe)
at the Uppsala University from February to July 2006.
My new homepage, along with me, can be found at the University of Mannheim, Germany, at the
Laboratory for Dependable Distributed Systems.
Below you find my papers published before October 2006.
My research interests include security and privacy issues in distributed systems,
especially in sensor networks.

- Zinaida Benenson: Verifiable Distributed Consensus.
This is my master thesis (Diplomarbeit), which was supervised by Dr. Birgit Pfitzmann, IBM Zurich.
Distributed consensus is a prominent problem from
the theory of distributed systems.
I investigated how to make it secure.
