Abstract –In this paper, a new problem, consensus estimation, is formulated, whose setting is complementary to the well-known CEO problem. In particular, a set of nodes are emplo...
We consider the problem of minimizing the total weighted completion time on identical parallel machines when jobs have stochastic processing times and may arrive over time. We give...
A new random geometric graph model, the so-called secrecy graph, is introduced and studied. The graph represents a wireless network and includes only edges over which secure commun...
We describe our contribution to the Generation Challenge 2010 for the tasks of Named Entity Recognition and coreference detection (GREC-NER). To extract the NE and the referring e...
In this paper we model and simulate a biological system describing the evolution of cancer stem cells into tumors. Starting from some basic hypotheses about the behavior of these ...
