In this paper, the performance of the network coded amplify-forward cooperative protocol is studied. The use of network coding can suppress the bandwidth resource consumed by relay...

A new means of action selection via utility fusion is introduced as an alternative to both sensor fusion and command fusion. Distributed asynchronous behaviors indicate the utility...
In this paper we study the convergence properties of the power series algorithm, which is a general method to determine (functions of) stationary distributions of Markov chains. W...
Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) tasks are evaluated using a cost function. The standard TDT cost function assumes a constant probability of relevance P(rel) across all topics. ...
We present CRF-Gradient, a self-healing gradient algorithm that provably reconfigures in O(diameter) time. Selfhealing gradients are a frequently used building block for distribut...
