Quorum systems are a mechanism for obtaining fault-tolerance and efficient distributed systems. We consider geographic quorum systems; a geographic quorum system is a partition of...
Many algorithms for independent component analysis (ICA) and blind source separation (BSS) can be considered particular instances of a criterion based on the sum of two terms: C(Y...
Abstract--Advances in very large-scale integration technology make clock skew more susceptible to process variations. Notwithstanding efficient exact zero-skew algorithms, clock sk...
The demand for high quality microdata for analytical purposes has grown rapidly among researchers and the public over the last few years. In order to respect existing laws on data ...
Abstract-- It has recently been discovered that using pseudorandom sequences as carriers in spread-spectrum techniques for data-hiding is not at all a sufficient condition for ensu...
