Burstiness and temporal dependence in service processes are often found in multi-tier architectures and storage devices and must be captured accurately in capacity planning models...
We study the cover time of multiple random walks. Given a graph G of n vertices, assume that k independent random walks start from the same vertex. The parameter of interest is the...
Random sampling is an appealing approach to build synopses of large data streams because random samples can be used for a broad spectrum of analytical tasks. Users are often inter...
This paper considers the problem of performing tasks in asynchronous distributed settings. This problem, called DoAll, has been substantially studied in synchronous models, but th...
A distributed task T is 1-solvable if there exists a protocol that solves it in the presence of (at most) one crash failure. A precise characterization of the 1-solvable tasks was...
