webπ is a recent process calculus introduced to formally specify Web Services composition. It extends the π-calculus with timed workunits, namely an asynchronous and temporized m...
Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are widely used in stochastic optimization. Impressive experimental results have been reported in the literature. However, little work ...
In this work, we consider a distributed source coding problem with a joint distortion criterion depending on the sources and the reconstruction. This includes as a special case the...
In this paper a distributed algorithm for clock synchronization is proposed. This algorithm is based on an extension of the consensus algorithm able to synchronize a family of dou...
A bivariate symmetric backwards recursion is of the form d[m, n] = w0(d[m− 1, n]+d[m, n−1])+ω1(d[m−r1, n−s1]+d[m−s1, n−r1])+· · ·+ωk(d[m−rk, n−sk] +d[m−sk, ...
