Entropy Amplification Property and the Loss for Writing on Dirty Paper
Costa's celebrated "writing on dirty paper" (WDP) shows that the powerconstrained channel Y = X + S + Z, with Gaussian Z, has the same capacity as the standard AWGN...

Model Checking for a Class of Performance Properties of Fluid Stochastic Models
Abstract. Recently, there is an explosive development of fluid approaches to computer and distributed systems. These approaches are inherently stochastic and generate continuous st...

A Note on the Effects of Service Time Distribution in the M/G/1 Queue
The M/G/1 queue is a classical model used to represent a large number of real-life computer and networking applications. In this note, we show that, for coefficients of variation o...

Metric-Entropy Pairs on Lattices
Abstract: We introduce the notion of ∧- and ∨-pairs of functions on lattices as an abstraction of the notions of metric and its related entropy for probability distributions. T...

A critique of distributional analysis in the spatial model
Distributional analysis is widely used to study social choice in Euclidean models [35, 36, 1, 5, 11, 19, 8, 2, e.g]. This method assumes a continuum of voters distributed accordin...
