Let X1, X2, . . . , Xk be independent n bit random variables. If they have arbitrary distributions, we show how to compute distributions like Pr{X1 ⊕ X2 ⊕ · · · ⊕ Xk} and ...
Abstract. Peer-to-peer networks have often been touted as the ultimate solution to scalability. Although cooperative techniques have been initially used almost exclusively for cont...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have proved to be a powerful and highly scalable alternative to traditional client-server architectures for content distribution. They offer the techni...
With the advent of Grid computing, more and more highend computational resources become available for use to a scientist. While this opens up new avenues for scientific research,...
As wireless networks increase in popularity, the development of efficient content distribution techniques to meet the growing and constantly changing client demand becomes a necess...
