Abstract. When dealing with process calculi and automata which express both nondeterministic and probabilistic behavior, it is customary to introduce the notion of scheduler to res...
Typical applications of evolutionary optimization in static environments involve the approximation of the extrema of functions. For dynamic environments, the interest is not to lo...
A growing body of literature in networked systems research relies on game theory and mechanism design to model and address the potential lack of cooperation between self-intereste...
Many mathematical models have been proposed to evaluate the execution performance of an application with and without checkpointing in the presence of failures. They assume that th...
Abstract. The problem of reliably transmitting a real-valued random vector through a digital noisy channel is relevant for the design of distributed estimation and control techniqu...
