We show that randomization can lead to significant improvements for a few fundamental problems in distributed tracking. Our basis is the count-tracking problem, where there are k...
Abstract— The paper considers the algorithm NLU for distributed (vector) parameter estimation in sensor networks, where, the local observation models are nonlinear, and inter-sen...
In this paper, a distributed heuristic search algorithm is presented. We show that the algorithm is admissible and give an informal analysis of its load balancing, scalability, an...
Abstract. For large distributed systems built from inexpensive components, one expects to see incessant failures. This paper proposes two models for such faults and analyzes two we...
A principle task in parallel and distributed systems is to reduce the communication load in the interconnection network, as this is usually the major bottleneck for the performanc...
