Stochastic analysis of the interplay between object maintenance and churn
Due to the prevalence of peer dynamics (i.e., churn), object maintenance becomes a fundamental issue in peer-to-peer storage systems. Although quite a few prototypes have been des...

On a stochastic sensor selection algorithm with applications in sensor scheduling and sensor coverage
In this note we consider the following problem. Suppose a set of sensors is jointly trying to estimate a process. One sensor takes a measurement at every time step and the measure...
