2D Minimal Graph Rigidity is in NC for One-Crossing-Minor-Free Graphs

Authors: Rohit Gurjar, Kilian Rothmund, and Thomas Thierauf

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)


Abstract
Minimally rigid graphs can be decided and embedded in the plane efficiently, i.e. in polynomial time. There is also an efficient randomized parallel algorithm, i.e. in RNC. We present an NC-algorithm to decide whether one-crossing-minor-free graphs are minimally rigid. In the special case of K_{3,3}-free graphs, we also compute an infinitesimally rigid embedding in NC.

Cache Timing Leakages in Zero-Knowledge Protocols

Authors: Shibam Mukherjee, Christian Rechberger, and Markus Schofnegger

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 354, 7th Conference on Advances in Financial Technologies (AFT 2025)


Abstract
The area of modern zero-knowledge proof systems has seen a significant rise in popularity over the last couple of years, with new techniques and optimized constructions emerging on a regular basis. As the field matures, the aspect of implementation attacks becomes more relevant, however side-channel attacks on zero-knowledge proof systems have seen surprisingly little treatment so far. In this paper, we give an overview of potential attack vectors and show that some of the underlying finite field libraries, and implementations of heavily used components like hash functions using them, are vulnerable w.r.t. cache attacks on CPUs. On the positive side, we demonstrate that the computational overhead to protect against these attacks is relatively small.

Navigating Exoplanetary Systems in Augmented Reality: Preliminary Insights on ExoAR

Authors: Bryson Lawton, Frank Maurer, and Daniel Zielasko

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)


Abstract
With thousands of exoplanets now confirmed by space missions such as NASA’s Kepler and TESS, scientific interest and public curiosity about these distant worlds continue to grow. However, current visualization tools for exploring exoplanetary systems often lack sufficient scientific accuracy or interactive features, limiting their educational effectiveness and analytical utility. To help address this gap, we developed ExoAR, an augmented reality tool designed to offer immersive, scientifically sound visualizations of all known exoplanetary systems using data directly sourced from NASA’s Exoplanet Archive. By leveraging augmented reality’s strengths, ExoAR enables users to immerse themselves in interactive, dynamic 3D models of these planetary systems with data-driven representations of planets and their host stars. The application also allows users to adjust various visualization scales independently, a capability designed to aid comprehension of comparative astronomical properties such as orbital mechanics, planetary sizes, and stellar classifications. To begin assessing ExoAR’s potential as an educational and analytical tool and inform future iterations, a pilot user study was conducted. Its findings indicate that participants found ExoAR improved user engagement and spatial understanding compared to NASA’s Eyes on Exoplanets application, a non-immersive exoplanetary system visualization tool. This work-in-progress paper presents these early insights, acknowledges current system limitations, and outlines future directions for more rigorously evaluating and further improving ExoAR’s capabilities for both educational and scientific communities.

Optimal Concolic Dynamic Partial Order Reduction

Authors: Mohammad Hossein Khoshechin Jorshari, Michalis Kokologiannakis, Rupak Majumdar, and Srinidhi Nagendra

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)


Abstract
Stateless model checking (SMC) software implementations requires exploring both concurrency- and data nondeterminism. Unfortunately, most SMC algorithms focus on efficient exploration of concurrency nondeterminism, thereby neglecting an important source of bugs. We present ConDpor, an SMC algorithm for unmodified Java programs that combines optimal dynamic partial order reduction (DPOR) for concurrency nondeterminism, with concolic execution for data nondeterminism. ConDpor is sound, complete, optimal, and parametric w.r.t. the memory consistency model. Our experiments confirm that ConDpor is exponentially faster than DPOR with small-domain enumeration. Overall, ConDpor opens the door for efficient exploration of concurrent programs with data nondeterminism.

Portuguese Far-Right Discourse on Social Media: Insights from Topic Modeling

Authors: Mauro Cardoso, Eugénio Ribeiro, and Fernando Batista

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 135, 14th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2025)


Abstract
This study analyzes the social media discourse of leading figures from Portugal’s far right party CHEGA, examining 10,323 posts on X (formerly Twitter) published between late 2019 and mid‑2024. Using BERTopic, 59 latent topics clustered into two main discursive dynamics were found: (1) ideological and public, and (2) party, electoral and parliamentary related. Within the first dynamic, we conducted a focused sub-analysis of themes related with identity, immigration and security narratives - topics that display posting peaks around electoral cycles, suggesting the strategic use of emotionally charged, identitarian frames for political mobilization. The model exhibits strong topic coherence and lexical diversity, indicating its robustness in extracting thematic structures from politically polarized microtexts. Nevertheless, our findings are constrained by source, the absence of interaction metrics, and the unmet need to link online discourse to offline events. This study demonstrates how computational topic modeling can reveal strategic communication patterns in far-right political discourse and underscores the need for cross-platform and interaction-level research to assess broader societal impact.

Wastrumentation: Portable WebAssembly Dynamic Analysis with Support for Intercession

Authors: Aäron Munsters, Angel Luis Scull Pupo, and Elisa Gonzalez Boix

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)


Abstract
Dynamic program analyses help in understanding a program’s runtime behavior and detect issues related to security, program comprehension, or profiling. Instrumentation platforms aid analysis developers by offering a high-level API to write the analysis, and inserting the analysis into the target program. However, current instrumentation platforms for WebAssembly (Wasm) restrict analysis portability because they require concrete runtime environments. Moreover, their analysis API only allows the development of analyses that observe the target program but cannot modify it. As a result, many popular dynamic analyses present for other languages, such as runtime hardening, virtual patching or runtime optimization, cannot currently be implemented for Wasm atop a dynamic analysis platform. Instead, they need to be built manually, which requires knowledge of low-level details of the Wasm’s semantics and instruction set, and how to safely manipulate it. This paper introduces Wastrumentation, the first dynamic analysis platform for WebAssembly that supports intercession. Our solution, based on source code instrumentation, weaves the analysis code directly into the target program code. Inlining the analysis into the target’s source code avoids dependencies on the runtime environment, making analyses portable across Wasm VMs. Moreover, it enables the implementation of analyses in any Wasm-compatible language. We evaluate our solution in two ways. First, we compare it against a state-of-the-art source code instrumentation platform using the WasmR3 benchmarks. The results show improved memory consumption and competitive performance overhead. Second, we develop an extensive portfolio of dynamic analyses, including novel analyses previously unattainable with source code instrumentation platforms, such as memoization, safe heap access, and the removal of NaN non-determinism.

Exact Algorithms for Minimum Dilation Triangulation

Authors: Sándor P. Fekete, Phillip Keldenich, and Michael Perk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)


Abstract
We provide a spectrum of new theoretical insights and practical results for finding a Minimum Dilation Triangulation (MDT), a natural geometric optimization problem of considerable previous attention: Given a set P of n points in the plane, find a triangulation T, such that a shortest Euclidean path in T between any pair of points increases by the smallest possible factor compared to their straight-line distance. No polynomial-time algorithm is known for the problem; moreover, evaluating the objective function involves computing the sum of (possibly many) square roots. On the other hand, the problem is not known to be NP-hard. (1) We provide practically robust methods and implementations for computing an MDT for benchmark sets with up to 30,000 points in reasonable time on commodity hardware, based on new geometric insights into the structure of optimal edge sets. Previous methods only achieved results for up to 200 points, so we extend the range of optimally solvable instances by a factor of 150. (2) We develop scalable techniques for accurately evaluating many shortest-path queries that arise as large-scale sums of square roots, allowing us to certify exact optimal solutions, with previous work relying on (possibly inaccurate) floating-point computations. (3) We resolve an open problem by establishing a lower bound of 1.44116 on the dilation of the regular 84-gon (and thus for arbitrary point sets), improving the previous worst-case lower bound of 1.4308 and greatly reducing the remaining gap to the upper bound of 1.4482 from the literature. In the process, we provide optimal solutions for regular n-gons up to n = 100.

Concolic Execution for WebAssembly (Artifact)

Authors: Filipe Marques, José Fragoso Santos, Nuno Santos, and Pedro Adão

Published in: DARTS, Volume 8, Issue 2, Special Issue of the 36th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2022)


Abstract
This artifact contains the implementation of WASP, a symbolic execution engine for Wasm, and WASP-C, a symbolic execution framework for testing C programs built using WASP . WASP works directly on Wasm code and was built on top of a standard-compliant Wasm reference implementation [Andreas Haas et al., 2017]. WASP was thoroughly evaluated: it was used to symbolically test a generic data-structure library and the Amazon Encryption SDK for C, demonstrating that it can find bugs and generate high-coverage testing inputs for real-world C applications; WASP was further tested against the Test-Comp benchmark, obtaining results comparable to well-established symbolic execution and testing tools for C.

Randomization as Mitigation of Directed Timing Inference Based Attacks on Time-Triggered Real-Time Systems with Task Replication

Authors: Kristin Krüger, Nils Vreman, Richard Pates, Martina Maggio, Marcus Völp, and Gerhard Fohler

Published in: LITES, Volume 7, Issue 1 (2021): Special Issue on Embedded System Security. Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 7, Issue 1


Abstract
Time-triggered real-time systems achieve deterministic behavior using schedules that are constructed offline, based on scheduling constraints. Their deterministic behavior makes time-triggered systems suitable for usage in safety-critical environments, like avionics. However, this determinism also allows attackers to fine-tune attacks that can be carried out after studying the behavior of the system through side channels, targeting safety-critical victim tasks. Replication -- i.e., the execution of task variants across different cores -- is inherently able to tolerate both accidental and malicious faults (i.e. attacks) as long as these faults are independent of one another. Yet, targeted attacks on the timing behavior of tasks which utilize information gained about the system behavior violate the fault independence assumption fault tolerance is based on. This violation may give attackers the opportunity to compromise all replicas simultaneously, in particular if they can mount the attack from already compromised components. In this paper, we analyze vulnerabilities of time-triggered systems, focusing on safety-certified multicore real-time systems. We introduce two runtime mitigation strategies to withstand directed timing inference based attacks: (i) schedule randomization at slot level, and (ii) randomization within a set of offline constructed schedules. We evaluate these mitigation strategies with synthetic experiments and a real case study to show their effectiveness and practicality.

Solving Large-Scale Minimum-Weight Triangulation Instances to Provable Optimality

Authors: Andreas Haas

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 99, 34th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2018)


Abstract
We consider practical methods for the problem of finding a minimum-weight triangulation (MWT) of a planar point set, a classic problem of computational geometry with many applications. While Mulzer and Rote proved in 2006 that computing an MWT is NP-hard, Beirouti and Snoeyink showed in 1998 that computing provably optimal solutions for MWT instances of up to 80,000 uniformly distributed points is possible, making use of clever heuristics that are based on geometric insights. We show that these techniques can be refined and extended to instances of much bigger size and different type, based on an array of modifications and parallelizations in combination with more efficient geometric encodings and data structures. As a result, we are able to solve MWT instances with up to 30,000,000 uniformly distributed points in less than 4 minutes to provable optimality. Moreover, we can compute optimal solutions for a vast array of other benchmark instances that are not uniformly distributed, including normally distributed instances (up to 30,000,000 points), all point sets in the TSPLIB (up to 85,900 points), and VLSI instances with up to 744,710 points. This demonstrates that from a practical point of view, MWT instances can be handled quite well, despite their theoretical difficulty.

The semantics of concurrent data structures is usually given by a sequential specification and a consistency condition. Linearizability is the most popular consistency condition due to its simplicity and general applicability. Nevertheless, for applications that do not require all guarantees offered by linearizability, recent research has focused on improving performance and scalability of concurrent data structures by relaxing their semantics. In this paper, we present local linearizability, a relaxed consistency condition that is applicable to container-type concurrent data structures like pools, queues, and stacks. While linearizability requires that the effect of each operation is observed by all threads at the same time, local linearizability only requires that for each thread T, the effects of its local insertion operations and the effects of those removal operations that remove values inserted by T are observed by all threads at the same time. We investigate theoretical and practical properties of local linearizability and its relationship to many existing consistency conditions. We present a generic implementation method for locally linearizable data structures that uses existing linearizable data structures as building blocks. Our implementations show performance and scalability improvements over the original building blocks and outperform the fastest existing container-type implementations.
