The overlap number of a finite (d + 1)-uniform hypergraph H is the largest constant c(H) (0, 1] such that no matter how we map the vertices of H into Rd , there is a point covered...

We propose an approach to lossy source coding, utilizing ideas from Gibbs sampling, simulated annealing, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The idea is to sample a reconstructio...
It is considered good distributed computing practice to devise object implementations that tolerate contention, periods of asynchrony and a large number of failures, but perform f...
Suppose a decision maker has to purchase a commodity over time with varying prices and demands. In particular, the price per unit might depend on the amount purchased and this pri...
This work considers the problem of communication from a single transmitter, over a network with colocated users, through an independent block Rayleigh fading channel. The colocati...
