We present and analyze simple distributed contention resolution protocols for wireless networks. In our setting, one is given n pairs of senders and receivers located in a metric ...
Building the hardware for a high-performance distributed computer system is a lot easier than building its software. In this paper we describe a model for programtributed systems ...

The increasing availability of high-performance computing systems with thousands, tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands of computational nodes is driving the demand fo...
In this paper we introduce the ConSet communication model for distributed memory parallel computers. The communication needs of an application program can be satisfied by some ar...
Complex environmental modeling often involves a large number of unknown physical and ecological parameters. Parameter estimation is one of the most difficult steps in many modelin...
