The Melbourne Shuffle: Improving Oblivious Storage in the Cloud
- jsmeaton 12y agoI'm gonna be that guy but.. this is the Melbourne Shuffle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDsDOlfz-QU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDsDOlfz-QU
- hadoukenio 12y agoHate to be that guy, but that video is hard style, not the real Melbourne Shuffle (there's a difference) :) Also, if you haven't yet seen it here's the full Melbourne Shuffler documentary on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQ0Vn6AlXiA
- jsmeaton 12y agoI have seen it - went to the launch party where they showed it at West Gate park =). 'Running man' (as I linked to) became the de-facto shuffle in the early to mid 00's, and was really a progression of the original shuffle. But I think we could probably argue that point :P
- hadoukenio 12y agoThe launch party for the DVD at West Gate park? Nice, sad I missed it.
- sasas 12y agoI thought the running man originated from Sydney around the early 2000s, but your comment is inline with Wikipedia [1] - > This reversion of shuffling consisted mostly of wide variations of the "T-Step" and minimal running man [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne_Shuffle http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne_Shuffle
- contingencies 12y agoCan you identify it in these 2002-quality videos from the Sydney Breakdancing Battle of the Year pre-party? http://pratyeka.org/breakdancing/ http://pratyeka.org/breakdancing/
- hadoukenio 12y agoI couldn't see any shuffling in any of those videos. All were standard break dancing moves which probably go back to the late 80s.
- contingencies 12y agoGlad someone had a look, even if it came up empty. I haven't the foggiest, though I shot them.
- jcr 12y agoThanks to both of you, jsmeaton and hadoukenio. I had no idea there was a thing actually called the Melbourne Shuffle until you commented, so I learned something new (and feel a bit old). It was the actual title of the paper, so I used it verbatim, but now I do feel a bit foolish for leaving it in the HN title. It's a bit link-baity, so maybe one of the mods will delete that part for me since it's too late for me to edit it.
- jsmeaton 12y agoYou should definitely leave the title as-is. It's the name of the paper. I'd bet they know what we're referring to and are using the name tongue in cheek anyway.
- hadoukenio 12y agoI'd put my money on that too :) Edit: Olga Ohrimenko went to Melbourne Uni from 2004 to 2007. I'm pretty sure she is a QBH alumni.
- argon81 12y agoNo, this is the Melbourne Shuffle (Zombie edition) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQgMSl0ucTE#t=158 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQgMSl0ucTE#t=158
- brendonjohn 12y agoI've briefly read through the paper and tried to trawl through google. Can someone explain to me or link me to something that explains what oblivious storage is?
- jcr 12y agoFrom the paper: > "Of course, users can encrypt data they outsource to the cloud, but this alone is not sufficient to achieve privacy protection, because the data access patterns that users exhibit can reveal information about the content of their data (e.g., see [4, 14]). Therefore, there has been considerable amount of recent research on algorithms for data-oblivious algorithms and storage, which hide data access patterns for cloud-based network data management solutions (e.g., see [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 18, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26])." Even when data is encrypted, you still need to worry about data access patterns leaking information about the encrypted data. The goal of data-oblivious storage is to scramble arrangement to prevent this kind of access pattern side channel attack.
- brendonjohn 12y agothanks :D
