Abstract— We consider the scenario of distributed data aggregation in wireless sensor networks, where each sensor can obtain and estimate the information of the whole sensing fi...
Wigderson and Xiao presented an efficient derandomization of the matrix Chernoff bound using the method of pessimistic estimators [WX08]. Building on their construction, we prese...
Existing works indicate that the absence of explicit discourse connectives makes it difficult to recognize implicit discourse relations. In this paper we attempt to overcome this ...

Real stochastic processes operating in continuous time can be modeled by sets of stochastic differential equations. On the other hand, several popular model families, including hi...
In this paper we investigate the effect of three time-triggered system rejuvenation policies on service availability using a queuing model. The model is formulated as an extended ...
