Consider the following two-player communication process to decide a language L: The first player holds the entire input x but is polynomially bounded; the second player is computa...
We consider Glauber dynamics on finite spin systems. The mixing time of Glauber dynamics can be bounded in terms of the influences of sites on each other. We consider three parame...
Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) has emerged as a useful technique for multiagent coordination. While previous DCOP work focuses on optimizing a single team objective, i...
In a sensor network information from multiple nodes must usually be aggregated in order to accomplish a certain task. A natural way to view this information gathering is in terms o...

Consider an edge-weighted tree T = (V, E, w : E R+ ), in which a subset R of the nodes (called the required nodes) are colored red and the remaining nodes in S = V \R are colored ...
