Abstract— Many problems associated with networked systems can be formulated as network utility maximization (NUM) problems. NUM problems maximize a global separable measure of ne...
— As an optical signal propagates along a lightpath to its destination in wavelength-routed optical networks (WRONs), the quality of transmission (QoT) is degraded by transmissio...
Abstract. Security and fault-tolerance is a big issue for intensive parallel computing in pervasive environments with hardware errors or malicious acts that may alter the result. I...
We develop a family of upper and lower bounds on the worst-case expected KL loss for estimating a discrete distribution on a finite number m of points, given N i.i.d. samples. Our...
We will describe three kinds of probabilistic induction problems, and give general solutions for each , with associated convergence theorems that show they tend to give good proba...
