Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is a new video coding approach based on the Wyner-Ziv theorem. Unlike most of the existing video codecs, each frame is encoded separately (either as...
Randomness is a critical resource in many computational scenarios, enabling solutions where deterministic ones are elusive or even provably impossible. However, the randomized solu...
Abstract. Is it possible to treat large scale distributed systems as physical systems? The importance of that question stems from the fact that the behavior of many P2P systems is ...
We present a framework that will enable scalable analysis and design of graceful degradation in distributed embedded systems. We define graceful degradation in terms of utility. A...
Network service provisioning involves the control of network resources through signaling, routing and management protocols that achieve Quality of Service and Traffic Engineering ...
