We study information reconciliation (IR) scheme for the quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols. The IR for the QKD can be considered as the asymmetric Slepian-Wolf problem, which...
The inherent instability and unreliability of peer-to-peer networks introduce several fundamental engineering challenges to multimedia streaming over peer-to-peer networks. First,...
A k-set structure over data streams is a bounded-space data structure that supports stream insertion and deletion operations and returns the set of (item, frequency) pairs in the s...
— The current standard for Fault-Tolerance in the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) does not support network partitioning. However, distributed systems, and those...
