Abstract. Randomization is of paramount importance in practical applications and randomized algorithms are used widely, for example in co-ordinating distributed computer networks, ...
— The fairness of IEEE 802.11 wireless networks (including Wireless LAN and Ad-hoc networks) is hard to predict and control because of the randomness and complexity of the MAC co...
— The paper studies distributed average consensus in sensor networks, when the sensors exchange quantized data at each time step. We show that randomizing the exchanged sensor da...
Abstract—For a complex distributed system to be dependable, it must be continuously monitored, so that its failures and imperfections can be discovered and corrected in a timely ...
