—In this paper we look at the problem of accurately reconstructing distributed signals through the collection of a small number of samples at a data gathering point. The techniqu...

Sketches--data structures for probabilistic, duplicate insensitive counting--are central building blocks of a number of recently proposed network protocols, for example in the con...
Data stream applications have made use of statistical summaries to reason about the data using nonparametric tools such as histograms, heavy hitters, and join sizes. However, rela...
Data aggregation plays an important role in the design of scalable systems, allowing the determination of meaningful system-wide properties to direct the execution of distributed a...
In this paper, we present a novel entropy estimator for a given set of samples drawn from an unknown probability density function (PDF). Counter to other entropy estimators, the e...
