A multi-object operation incurs communication or synchronization overhead when the requested objects are distributed over different nodes. The object pair correlations (the probab...
Consider a set of players that are interested in collectively evaluating a set of objects. We develop a collaborative scoring protocol in which each player evaluates a subset of t...
This paper proposes LTNC, a new recoding algorithm to build low complexity network codes. At the core of LTNC is a decentralized version of LT codes that allows the use of fast be...
Excessive power consumption is becoming a major barrier to extracting the maximum performance from high-performance parallel systems. Therefore, techniques oriented towards reduci...
Data storage has become an important issue in sensor networks as a large amount of collected data need to be archived for future information retrieval. This paper introduces stora...
