Introduction: Privacy-preserving computation is a crucial discipline that protects the privacy of confidential data while facilitating secure analysis. In graph problems, secure multiparty computation (SMC) presents a promising approach to performing these functionalities. This article delves into the notable advancements in privacy-preserving parallel algorithms recently introduced in a Ph.D. thesis. By integrating graph algorithms with […]

We are living in a world in which data is not just getting bigger; it is also getting more and more interconnected. Large graph analytics is a useful tool for gaining insights from large volumes of interconnected data and has applications in various fields such as social media, biology, and telecommunications. An example of the […]

Intervjueeris Raimond-Hendrik Tunnel Meie eelmine mängujämmide lugu andis ülevaate Tartu Ülikooli mängujämmidest ning kirjeldas nende käigus loodud märkimisväärseid mänge. Seekord kõneleme samal teemal arvutiteaduse instituudi hajussüsteemide nooremlektori Jürmo Mehisega. Jürmo on osalenud mitmetel jämmidel ning olnud paljude mängujämmide õhtujuht. Vestlesime tema huvidest, teest mängundusse ning mängujämmide ja Eesti mänguarenduse tulevikust. Tean, et sa tegeled päris […]

The article was translated and published in English by the University of Tartu. It was initially published in Estonian in Eesti Ekspress by Greete Lehepuu. The cover of the September issue of Communications of ACM, the most prestigious journal in computer science, featured an article led by University of Tartu researchers. The article proposes steps to tackle one of […]

On the 6th of June 2019, the paper “D2IA: Stream Analytics on User-Defined Event Intervals” won the best paper award in the 31st International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE’19), which was written by Ahmed Awad, Riccardo Tommasini, Mahmoud Kamel, Emanuele Della Valle and Sherif Sakr. CAiSE is one of the oldest and top […]

Hiljaaegu avaldasime blogis loo „TÜ tudengid saavutavad programmeerimisvõistlustel suurepäraseid tulemusi“. Et avada võistlusprogrammeerimise telgitaguseid, vestlesime ettevõtja Targo Tennisbergiga. Ta on Eesti informaatikaolümpiaadi üks eestvedajaid ning avaldanud Võistlusprogrammeerimise õpiku (PDF). Mis vahe on “tavalisel” ja “võistlusprogrammeerimisel” ? Umbes sama vahe nagu liinibussi ja ralliauto juhtimisel. Mingid oskused on samad, aga hulk asju on ka erinevad. Rallis […]

Rahvusvahelistel programmeerimisvõistlustel on Eesti esivõistkonnaks kujunenud Tartu Ülikooli meeskond Double Cycle Cover. Head tulemused viisid TÜ tudengid teist korda järjest maailma kõige mainekama programmeerimisvõistluse finaali. Viimasel ajal hoiavad rahvusvahelistel programeerimisvõistlustel Eesti ja Tartu Ülikooli lippu kõrgel tudengid Tähvend Uustalu (matemaatika 2. aasta tudeng), Andres Unt ja Oliver Nisumaa  (mõlemad matemaatika 3. aasta tudengid) ja Martin […]
