Volunteer distributed computations utilize spare processor cycles of personal computers that are connected to the Internet. The related computation integrity concerns are commonly...
In recent years, there have been some interesting studies on predictive modeling in data streams. However, most such studies assume relatively balanced and stable data streams but...
We introduce a new approach to characterizing the unobserved portion of a distribution, which provides sublinear-sample additive estimators for a class of properties that includes...
In this paper we show how quantitative program logic [14] provides a formal framework in which to promote standard techniques of program analysis to a context where probability and...
Abstract. The automata-based model checking approach for randomized distributed systems relies on an operational interleaving semantics of the system by means of a Markov decision ...
