Extracting Randomness Using Few Independent Sources
In this work we give the first deterministic extractors from a constant number of weak sources whose entropy rate is less than 1/2. Specifically, for every > 0 we give an expl...

An Analysis of the Height of Tries with Random Weights on the Edges
We analyze the weighted height of random tries built from independent strings of i.i.d. symbols on the finite alphabet {1, . . . , d}. The edges receive random weights whose distr...

Using Randomized Caches in Probabilistic Real-Time Systems
While hardware caches are generally effective at improving application performance, they greatly complicate performance prediction. Slight changes in memory layout or data access p...

Channel Diversity in Random Wireless Networks
The goal of this paper is to explore the benefits of channel diversity in wireless ad hoc networks. Our model is that of a Poisson point process of transmitters, each with a recei...

A robust optimization approach to backup network design with random failures
—This paper presents a scheme in which a dedicated backup network is designed to provide protection from random link failures. Upon a link failure in the primary network, traffi...
