Efficiency of Data Distribution in BitTorrent-Like Systems
BitTorrent (BT) in practice is a very efficient method to share data over a network of clients. In this paper we extend the recent work of Arthur and Panigrahy [1] on modelling the...

Mixing independent classifiers
In this study we deal with the mixing problem, which concerns combining the prediction of independently trained local models to form a global prediction. We deal with it from the ...

Stochastic, Utility Accrual Real-Time Scheduling with Task-Level and System-Level Timeliness Assurances
Heuristic algorithms have enjoyed increasing interests and success in the context of Utility Accrual (UA) scheduling. However, few analytical results, such as bounds on task-level...

A constant-factor approximately optimal solution to the Witsenhausen counterexample
Abstract— Despite its simplicity (two controllers and otherwise LQG), Witsenhausen’s counterexample is one of the long-standing open problems in stochastic distributed control....

Approximate distributed top- k queries
We consider a distributed system where each node keeps a local count for items (similar to elections where nodes are ballot boxes and items are candidates). A top-k query in such ...
