In the cyclic-to-random shuffle, we are given n cards arranged in a circle. At step k, we exchange the k'th card along the circle with a uniformly chosen random card. The pro...
Today most Internet services are pre-assigned to servers statically, hence preventing us from doing real-time sharing of a pool of servers across as group of services with dynamic...
We consider in-network processing via local message passing. The considered setting involves a set of sensors each of which can communicate with a subset of other sensors. There is...
In this paper, we study the fundamental limits of a wireless sensor network's lifetime under connectivity and k-coverage constraints. We consider a wireless sensor network wit...
