Predicting durability in DHTs using Markov chains
We consider the problem of data durability in lowbandwidth large-scale distributed storage systems. Given the limited bandwidth between replicas, these systems suffer from long re...

On Properties of the Minimum Entropy Sub-tree to Compute Lower Bounds on the Partition Function
— Computing the partition function and the marginals of a global probability distribution are two important issues in any probabilistic inference problem. In a previous work, we ...

Statistical static timing analysis using Markov chain Monte Carlo
—We present a new technique for statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) based on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), that allows fast and accurate estimation of the right-hand tai...

Processor Lower Bound Formulas for Array Computations and Parametric Diophantine Systems
Using a directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, we solve a problem related to precedenceconstrained multiprocessor schedules for array computations: Given a sequence of ...

Incremental Methods for Computing Bounds in Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) allow one to model complex dynamic decision or control problems that include both action outcome uncertainty and imperfect ...
